for sure lol

[@slobbucket]

Well, God dam that was fast.

[@itszechs]

Agreed!

[@darrenbutterworth807]

The scenery screaming by in the ending was just like hyperspace! 😆 Drive safe Marques, we need more of your quality content on the channels!

[@aishx8]

39:23 you did not just show a BMW while naming Audi. The Motoring Gods would be bawling right now.

[@nykhilist]

I was gonna type that down too

[@2nd3rd1st]

I think that's the point. Legacy auto is stale, repetitive and outdated now and barely anyone cares. BMWs grill kidneys get ever bigger because they got nowhere else to go anymore

[@nykhilist]

@@2nd3rd1st that is why we have companies like Tesla that are defying that.

[@Fernication]

All ice cars look the same lmao

[@koruki]

R8 V10 is not a Aventador V12 and def not a 3 cylinder i8 lol 😆

[@ekrajb123]

"Why do people care about speed?" an important adage is, when people buy cars they often buy with their heart. A car can be ever so economical and safe and stuff, but if they're not "feeling" it, they won't buy it. The acceleration is definitely an aspect that makes it fun to drive and thus appealing to a large audience.

[@caryg4638]

Men buy cars like women choose men…

[@jsudre]

This one was the best so far! Specially with that ending... LOL

[@aaquibattawala6051]

Best Outro Ever Hands Down !!!!!!!!!!! Dammnn Even When Listened At First it Sounded Fast Jeezzzzz !!!!!!!

[@Microes57]

What a great episode that was !!

[@ayxn]

39:19 Talking about Audi, but showing BMW pictures😂 Really enjoyed this episode tho!

[@Gabilleta]

I wanna know WHO screwed that one up lol

[@caseybechard9562]

I was like, that's an i8... not an R8....

The ending was so worth is lol

[@VSVGodyr0611]

39:25 - Those are all BMW’s, not Audi’s 😅

[@dnltxr3]

yeah, and then when he metions the "R8 which is a V10" the picture of the i8 which is a 3 cylinder, just killed me 😂

[@dumplingman8322]

yeah thats the point, bmw flagship i8 doesn't have the specs like audi r8 or benz gtr

[@KingJerbear]

@@dumplingman8322 i8 is certainly not the BMW flagship... have you not heard of their Motorsport line..?

[@dnltxr3]

@@dumplingman8322 I’m pretty sure it was just a mistake, probably the person editing the video is not into cars, and that’s ok, not everyone has to be, I just found it hilarious. And just like King Jerbear said, the i8 is definitely not the flagship from bmw, at the moment that’s probably the M8 Competition.

[@RoadUser_Motovlog]

@@dnltxr3 Also, R8 has a V10, aventador has a V12

[@azerfall99]

I love how you match Jon's portrait to the dude in the back, as if Jon himself is sitting there. 3:50

[@sherlockmaverick]

Not a "dude". It's Adam Molina, editor of the WVFRM podcast, and he matched the picture onto HIMSELF.

[@CornflakeMom]

That outro OMG my heart was racing 😂😂😂😂😂

[@hand-burger]

yo editor, you put an image of the bmw i8 instead of the audi r8 and all other bmws instead of audis 😳 (39:25)

[@aportraitontech5218]

Just came from the podcast. Great clip!

[@eseukey20]

Whoever showed those cars...BMW instead of Audi?? That person is actually, saying something. 😏 Luxury in my opinion, is how you feel when you're using something of value (meaning, well made)...like you're floating in the air of some kind while people are looking at you of course. 😁

[@LightslicerGP]

17:45 lmao 18:26 subtle pun 39:14 my man has now created a war 55:02 holy *shit*

[@JaatProMax]

3:52 the way the picture blends in with the guy on back seat 🔥

[@CodeMonkeyCharlie]

Wouldn't surprise me at all if there are third party solutions that add a top arc to the yoke. The shape and size may be awkward, but maybe that would alleviate the discomfort that some people have. That said, I'm looking forward to getting my LR and experiencing the yoke for myself.

[@DelPhonic1]

The butterfly wheel is the main reason I wanna upgrade. It looks absolutely sick. And most of those that have it for a couple weeks, realize they don't want to go back to an ol' round wheel.

[@KushShetty]

39:23 lmao marques is talking about different Audi cars and the pictures are of BMW's lol

[@adityasasank]

i8 instead of R8 😂😂😂

[@vishalkguptanyc]

Lol who did this!?

I was thinking the same thing 😮

[@Xiphros]

Lmao i was thinking the same i actually ended up rewinding to check if he really said Audi and not BMW xD

@@Xiphros same xD

[@uhafeez]

Best outro yet

[@jjunture]

I had to quickly fast forward to see if they shot in the car for a full hour. 5 minutes in and I had sympathy pains for them holding the mics and trying to produce from the back seat. Definitely an ambitious start to the video. I liked it. Cheers!

[@danbedford6331]

Hey guys, looks like you may have not realized yet: when you close the center console fully, the slot under the wireless charger has a block on it where cards, etc won’t disappear. This happened to me with my building access card. Spent 10 mins trying to fish it out and even detached the wireless charger which didn’t help. Suddenly, I accidentally closed the center console cover fully and when it closed, my access card was revealed. 😳😅

[@ahmedkamalhasin2070]

Ah, that's interesting. In all the shots where he showed that 'flaw', his cover was halfway open. Still, I think there should be another block attached to the underneath of the wireless charger inside. Possibly made from a soft material like foam. That way it won't matter what position the cover is in.

[@itsnotyasir]

Marques needs to see this 😂

[@jonussmith7404]

He was saying that he had papers on it closed and opened it to use that area and it slid in when he opened the compartment to use it. That would be totally annoying to have to move everything there just so it wouldn't go into the blackhole of center storage like cookie crumbs that aren't going to be found until you're ready to detail it to sell it.

[@brixan...]

+

[@just4abdu2238]

Make a video

[@Narinjas]

I hope the horn button they have will be mapped to custom horn sounds but they will include the center horn that is common to most vehicles ... please.

[@iMikeTech811]

The speed thing is something I find myself so torn on. I ride a GSXR street bike and obviously has A LOT of speed. It is really fun to randomly decide to blow past everyone on the freeway. Yes, there are speed laws and most of the time I follow them. BUT…..It’s really fun knowing you can punch the throttle and really move.

[@eddiemoy]

x always had the door storage in the front, but no door storage in the rear for obvious reasons. you are correct the S didn't have door storage before in the front. you showed the BMW i8, the R8 is a from Audi. LOL

[@aardvarkansaw]

Extreme high performance Teslas is part of Elon's strategy: To absolutely obliterate internal combustion vehicles--to show, in everyway, that EVs are, no doubt, better than any ICE car in every way.

[@jimtamim1708]

I wonder if Elon will make an extreme cheap ev for global market specifically to compete with China ev.

[@dzello]

@@jimtamim1708 Nah, he won't. He's gonna push the EV technology further and further which is gonna make the EV prices drop naturally to ICE car levels and then they'll replace ICE cars.

[@MarkySharky]

Great video but 39:23 it's an Audi R8 why is there a BMW i8 on screen! And he said the R8 shares the same engine as the Aventador but its the Huracan reeee

Same here 🙌🏻

[@actuallyweldon]

Hey Marques, this is a great channel and glad you created another channel for this purpose. So proud of the way you come and the work youve put into growing, it's truly inspiring. YOU ARE THE REASON I GOT A JOB AT TESLA (2018) in fact- so thank you for that. Mkbhd, I only have one comment to say though. As a brotha(black man in MN but born in Kenya) , who has a similar background to you in the sense of growing up in a very white dominated industry and world, I gotta say it did disappoint me to see the lack of diversity on your team. Like I started of my comment, I have been inspired by you and even made life decisions from you being a role model of mine, so I spent the entire video trying to come up with justifications and ultimately I decided that leaving a comment on it might be enough. I still support you in whatever way I can but thought maybe you'd see the perspective I'd have for you. No malice towards your team, I'm sure they are all phenomenal but it goes without saying, maybe as you expand you can keep that thought in the back of your head. :) Keep up the great work.

[@patrickscheeks8769]

Man this Marques guy is really tech savvy he should make a tech review KZbin channel

[@frazierl7898]

I want learn more about him and the place he pulls these videos off in, he should make channel dedicated to that as well.

[@dhareshm6189]

I kinda feel that the dude will be popular, I don't know why but just a gut feeling.

[@razoryes4671]

I learnt a new definition for "luxurious" from you guys! 😐

[@RichardsWorld]

You guys are the first to use Shure SM7B mics in a car 😀And the expensive Earthworks mic.

[@davidbryant2872]

I have to make a slight correction to something Marques said at 55:20. The previous Tesla Model S steering wheel controls actually had one scroll wheel (the right one, which he said was fan speed) that was configurable. There were 5 or 6 different functions it could control. In addition, pressing in on the right scroll wheel allowed the user to select from one of 5 different displays for the right-hand panel of the instrument cluster. So it is not quite true that the controls were "always" for the same function. personally, i liked the configurability. I used the right scroll wheel for sunroof operation in good weather, but would switch to something else in winter to avoid inadvertently opening the sunroof in cold or snow. But i agree that the controls were not as configurable as they are in models 3 and Y, which to me make for too many steps for performing some tasks, such as adjustments to the seats.

[@Toofbar2]

That John Lettinger picture fit onto the body of the guy in the back seat so perfectly, it almost seemed like a parody

[@DelPhonic1]

Boy that Taycan screen tilts so much better when watching movies...

[@000piper000]

Big smile for the outro!!

[@puig031]

Slight typo at 50:26, you wrote "ansd" instead of "and". Might want to fix it for the clips channel

[@Tyler_ThaTruth]

why is Zachery quinto just chilling in the back seat?

[@pauliedriver4127]

[@applepotterhead8732]

Nice video podcast 👍

[@tpad6]

14:04 damn that's exactly me lol

[@abdullahfarouk4556]

I'm guessing it's possible to disable the soft press functions and just use the hard press "blinker on" "headlight on" functions. Would solve Yoke gate probably.

[@EmiFolkMusic]

17:01 Can we discuss cup holders? I notice it is a frequent subject for people in the USA, they seem to use them a lot. Here in Argentina people almost never use them, we rarely have a drink while driving (no matter if you are the driver or passenger) and mostly, its discouraged, in case of any rough turn o movement that could spill the drink. Don't forget to mention where you live in your reply to this.

[@taysirhussain8154]

Now Marques has got to get Doug Demuro to review this car!

[@HoliestDoughnut]

They should have a bumb up in the back of center console in order to raise the screen for the backseat, and then if they remove the large bezel currently present, it would likely be great. Or have 2 screens on the back of each seat, which lets get real, would be the best solution, especially with Tesla's dedication to cabin entertainment.

[@koruki]

The half power double range. I think you can use the power more often than going on 600mile road trips

[@ethanmerritt8109]

43:47 WARP SPEED IS STAR TREK, LIGHT SPEED IS STAR WARS

[@progsdi]

Model S 2017 - same center console issue. There is a gap, which now has 2 my Chargepoint cards. But because the surface in old cars is not that smooth, they are stuck there and no acceleration can get them out.

[@woofbark4475]

Need to put today indicators on left and right hand side easily fixed.

[@Navid_AG]

Well done guys

[@timtim3582]

Please do this type of podcast when the roadster and the cybertruck will be available … one day lol 😝

[@DaveH96]

[@TobiHamed]

How about a mode select option, current power in sports mode and eco mode with less power and double the range

[@k.o.t.o.n.]

I fon't like the intop roofline being black it is already tight an headroom, why it isnn't ligh grey?

[@eezeepee]

The Ludicrous mode comes from the ludicrous speed name (Plaid) in Spaceballs.

[@adamneitzke]

"Ludicrous speed" also is a Spaceballs reference, so plaid makes complete sense

[@wuhala100]

I need to rewatch Spaceballs, I missed these references!

[@vermashwetank]

Reducing the power to half won’t do much for range. That’s a pretty ICE way of thinking.

[@khayes1098]

How about wireless charging cup holders

[@DenisUspeshny]

so, lav mics were not available?

[@jhaabhishek]

I didn't hear about the merge between Audi and BMW 😂

[@nickroberts4586]

Full send💨

[@janfm8670]

How loud is the seat ventilator System? In park and while driving?

[@rnwakoby]

@MKBHD Why is the new model S LR and Plaid identical in look? No red calipers either? Does that mean there is another car coming that sits above both of them? Or was this done deliberately to make them stealth?

[@MatheusLeston]

55:27 is the best marques frame ever

[@TheHjkkkl]

Americans talking about cars: confused between Audi and BMW. I cried inside 😭

[@vast634]

Im sure there will be third party kits for the yoke in the future, either physically adding a wheel, or a straight conversion to a classic wheel and classic controls. Its could also be that EU regulations force Tesla to use classic elements, especially for the blinker (wich looks terrible on the Plaid)

[@REVIEWSONTHERUN]

Interesting! Nice video ✌️

[@RoadUser_Motovlog]

HOLY SHIT that outro!

[@DerpMcDerp101]

One thing to think about with the Yoke is that its safer. Your less likely to bust your teeth out with it. I personally like resting my had at the top of a steering wheel when i drive but i do think the Yoke adds some saftey for your face in a front collision if the air bag fails to deploy. And Fire your editor for Putting BMW pictures up when you address Audi.

[@VMYeahVN]

This podcast is the first time i'm hearing the U.K. calls Hatchback cars "Super Saloons"... WHAT?! lol

[@moiseiuliancristian]

Andrew also has an original way of pronouncing "Taycan"...

[@sensiblewheels]

It's just saloons. I haven't heard much of a super saloon! So the sedans are called saloons.

[@kaarteeek]

Adam on another level 😂😎

[@Johntymcragth]

you should have guests in this car and have a conversation with them while driving

[@ericisnominal]

Yoke in the snow??? Thoughts

[@nyx_hntr]

Wait, so do the buttons work if your wearing gloves? Like thick winter gloves.

[@griffindrye9830]

Probably, but I think the point would be to warm up the car before you enter using the app on your phone, and then take off your gloves once you enter.

[@BehindEnemyChimes]

The are most likely capacitive buttons so gloves should work just fine

Hope new intro music coming soon 🙌🏽

[@russellparrish4529]

Worth pointing out the user experience of all Tesla’s are now the same. Not just talking about the horizontal display its UI, but the hardware experience is the same; buttons to open the doors, dual wireless chargers under the display, how you control the air vents. It is very “Apple-like” the same way the user experience across the iPhone lineup (SE>Pro) is the same but the specs and materials are at different quality. Just think of it as Model 3 = iPhone 12, Model S = iPhone 12Pro, Model X = iPhone ProMax.

[@1slamExplained]
