This guy is a Tesla schill. His opinion means jack and shit after seeing him butcher the EV6 and ID.4 reviews by complaining about missing features that they had and he literally couldn't bothered to actually use.

That seems to be continuing into this video.
I agree with some of the points but can't help but think of how terrible Teslas can get.

I kinda thought there was something off with his review. Now it makes sense Neutronbomb

I found the interior review interesting, though it's primarily a manufacturing efficiency discussion. That's what they get paid to do -- figure out ways for manufacturers to squeeze every bit of efficiency of their production techniques.

Munro has been fairly tough on Tesla, particularly early production samples of the Model 3 and Model Y. He seems to be fairly well respected. It's kind of cool, but also kind of scary, that it feels like someone at Tesla watches the Munro YouTube videos, says, "Munro says we should do X," and they implement it as a running change in production.

Munro took a look at the undercarriage.

i bought it and started having regrets mainly about lower range compared to competitors and fast charging not really charging fast and put a deposit on a lexus to trade it with...but now the more i drive the more i like it, it really grows on you. get the limited one

One thing that happened with me is the dealership doesn't know yet, exactly how to advise on these cars. Mine was the second sold in my town. WIthout really understanding the subtlety of the climate control, I ran my car to zero twice and had it back at the dealer twice. I have now owned the car for a month and i am getting well above 250 miles per charge. Farthest range thus far has been 283 miles--well, 273 actual with 10 left on range when I charged it to be exact. It is a fantastic car but not the same as a gas vehicle. Manually setting climate control has been the most important thing for long range battery use for me. I have driven the car in very bad storms up in Tahoe two weeks ago, as well as in the 30s, 40s and 50s in the Sierra foothills...but the dealerships are hurting themselves some by not knowing how t o educate a new driver to these cars.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the bZ4x!
Glad to know your range is above the official rating. How much of your driving is done in eco mode?

None. I do not use Eco Mode. But have figured out that by running the heater on auto when you first start out on your drive, then turning fan to one or two bars after the car reaches comfortable temps, the battery will draw very little power down. When I was initially driving the car in cold weather, including snow storms, I left the car on auto with the temps fairly high, say 78 or 80 per side, and the auto climate control appeared to cycle on and off on something close to high fan. This dramatically killed range. And it was unnecessary. Playing with the climate control, the seat warmers, and to a much lesser degree the steering wheel heat was a quick learn and a quick remedy. Unless I am in a full on snowstorm, I expect to get well over 200 miles on a full charge. Even in a snowstorm, I think I can get 230or higher on range. But I haven't done it since I figured this out. Does this sound like a lot of trouble? It wasn't at all, once I understood that leaving the heat on high auto was going to burn up some significant juice.
