@TeslaOwnersUK We already have V4s. The big white ones with long cables are V4.

Very interesting, I wonder when we first see these in the UK

@Tesla Finally got my charging passport

Like bumper stickers, but for Superchargers Tesla app > Charging > Charging Passport

@SawyerMerritt Steering wheel on the right!

What would you like Tesla to include and or change in a refreshed Model S and Model X?

I dug into the data. Fiat Chrysler (FCA) was the most recalled automaker in the US in 2024, while @Tesla was one of the least. Tesla's over-the-air (OTA) software update recalls in the US affected 5,096,386 vehicles (many vehicles received multiple OTA recalls, so they are counted more than once.) In contrast, Tesla's physical recalls—requiring a visit to a service center—affected only 39,311 vehicles, accounting for just 0.77% of the total. Total recalls (including physical & software update recalls): • FCA: 72 • Ford: 62 • BMW: 36 • GM: 33 • Mercedes: 27 • Hyundai: 25 • Jaguar Land Rover (JLR): 20 • Kia: 19 • Honda: 18 • VW: 18 • Nissan: 17 • Toyota: 16 • Tesla: 15 • Mazda: 8 • Rivian: 6 • Lucid: 5 • Volvo: 4 The number of physical recalls each automaker had that required customers to visit a service center: • FCA: 72 • Ford: 62 • BMW: 36 • GM: 33 • Mercedes: 27 • Hyundai: 24 • Jaguar Land Rover (JLR): 20 • Kia: 19 • Honda: 18 • VW: 18 • Toyota: 16 • Nissan: 16 • Mazda: 8 • Tesla: 7 • Rivian: 4 • Volvo: 4 • Lucid: 2 The number of over-the-air software update recalls each automaker had that not require any service center visits: • Tesla: 8 • Lucid: 3 • Hyundai: 1 • Rivian: 1 • Nissan: 1 • BMW: 0 • Toyota: 0 • FCA: 0 • Ford: 0 • GM: 0 • Mercedes: 0 • JLR: 0 • Kia: 0 • Honda: 0 • VW: 0 • Mazda: 0 • Volvo: 0 Out of the 401 total recalls, including both physical and software updates, only 14 were remedied with over-the-air software updates. Tesla accounted for 57% of all OTA recalls. The mainstream media has done an excellent job of convincing people that Teslas break all the time and or need fixing, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. The data above shows that not only does @Tesla rank near the bottom in total recall count, but 99.23% of the Teslas that were recalled in the US were “fixed” with a simple over-the-air software update performed in the comfort of the owners’ homes or garages—no service center visit required. Tesla makes the safest cars on the road (Top Safety Pick+ by IIHS). Their active safety features are great in preventing crashes, but if the worst happens, they have incredible passive safety engineering too.

@SawyerMerritt Thanks @SawyerMerritt. Great content! We've owned a Model X since 2018 and a Model 3 since 2021. We only ever had one referral - and that was ourselves buying the M3! 😅 ts.la/roy58977

This worked well for you all last time, so let's do it again! If you'd like someone to use your Tesla referral code, comment below on this post with your link. If you're planning to buy a new Tesla, consider using a referral link from a smaller creator. Let's sell some Teslas!

Blimey!

On this occasion of the June solstice, consider that while you can choose to ignore scientific consensus on climate change, you’ll find it much harder to ignore Mother Nature.

Our Giga Berlin-Brandenburg team sent me a long list of public facts, so I thought I’d share a few of them. The entire point of @Tesla is to create innovative zero emissions products and accelerate sustainable energy/transport. But in order to do that well, we also focus on creating the most sustainable factories along with a culture to do the right thing in our community. • Giga’s per vehicle production only takes 2.28 m3 of water – 33% less than industry average (3.68 m3). • We recycle up to 100% of our industrial water. • We have over 8 MW of installed solar capacity and source renewable electricity. • Afforestation for Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg’s current site is even faster than construction - 300 hectares of high-quality forest (> 60 % of hardwood) have been planted. • In the nearby area the team has helped ecologically improve 340 hectares of existing forest through underplanting hardwood, making Grünheide, Spreenhagen & Gosen-Neu Zittau forests more diverse and therefore more resilient. • We incentivize a sustainable lifestyle - 45% of our employees commute by public transport. • Our shuttle train has a daily passenger volume of over 3000 and is free of charge. • @TeslaCharging has installed over 500 wall connectors - we think it’s the world’s largest charging park. • More than 12,000 people work at Giga. -1,500 of them were unemployed and another ~700 were long-term unemployed. • We partner with 13 different schools, and we are the biggest apprenticeship employer in Brandenburg. • Grünheide is only to beginning to benefit from Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg – in 2022, the year the factory started production, €6 Million EUR in trade taxes were paid to the municipality. • @staatskanzleibb achieved the highest GDP growth rate of all non-city states in Germany in the first half year 2023 - in large part due to Tesla's direct and indirect economic impact. • The Giga team is supporting a long list of community impact projects through volunteer efforts and partnerships with local youth clubs and associations.

Breaking News! Code #FFS Another new record. 21.19°C today. I'd give the y-axis one more day.

Dear Anti EV people…
