NEW Tesla Model S Revealed - Why Thomas And James Aren't Sure About It

[@NateDawg0007]

You missed the worst update. There is no drive selector anymore. The car just "guesses" what gear to be in, reverse, forward, park.

[@ExtraThrottleHouse]

This is nuts. Sorry we missed it! Upon further research, here's what Elon tweeted: "No more stalks. Car guesses drive direction based on what obstacles it sees, context & nav map. You can override on touchscreen."

Because 0-60 times is what creates hype, video games is what makes its round on social media. Making an utterly stupid shaped steering wheel on a regular passenger car makes its rounds on Instagram. Because deleting the turn signal stalk makes you think their autonomous system is safe & ready for the public roads. When it clearly is not.

I actually have to agree with Thomas in regards to the Tesla’s instant torque. My friend’s mom owns a Tesla, and that was the first thing I noticed after we started driving, no matter how soft or hard the petal was pushed, the power was right there and it quite literally jerked you from not in motion to in motion. Obviously it wasn’t nearly as aggressive in soft pushing versus hard pushing, but it was noticeable. Idk if is different in models other than the X, but I would assume not.

I own a 2020 Model X performance. It's the smoothest accelerating car I've ever owned. Sure, you can choose to give your passengers whiplash, but once you learn the throttle response you can make everything buttery smooth. Mind you I always keep it in ludicrous mode. I tried chill mode for a road trip once when trying to maximize range. It didn't help range at all and when I needed to accelerate quickly to avoid a semi in the lane I was merging into it was spongy and sluggish in a way that I was surprised/unprepared/alarmed by.

[@SgtKanyo]

The steering wheel without a top half, no drive selector (holy shit wtf?) just proves to me once again that Tesla is made for people who don't know anything about cars, but want to show off and claim they can "beat" supercars. Sure in a straight line it's faster and possibly not just 0-60 mph, but even 0-125 mph (which is more impressive, since it's not just about AWD grip at launch), but it handles like crap. No emotion to it, other than massive G force at acceleration. Elon sure is a good business man though, he knows how to sell cars. Although on the other hand I'm wondering what tyre the new Tesla will have and on what surface can it actually reach less than 2 seconds 0-60. Is it gonna be like the Demon where it can only produce that number on a prepped surface?

The “Emotion argument” is getting old. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Electric cars are the future. Get used to it. Stop fighting the future.

[@SgtKanyo]

@@DaxM Wow you sound like a BMW commercial

[@santiagocalderon3261]

Thats why the GM t50 Will be the greatest car of the decade, its not about the numbers

[@tongtran007]

Love the new interior design. Looks way better than the old one IMO. Hope you guys get to do video on the new model S 🙏🏼 ⚡️

Why do you need that much power in a sedan, my car is a lot “slower” with a 0 to 60 time of 4.5 seconds and I find it annoying because it’s so easy to go over the speed limit. And what the f is this no stalks thing? I guess they have to use these gimmicks to sell these crappy cars.

[@ge-8135]

Stinger?

[@MrLSDownliner]

“Gimmicks” LOL you mean technology features that OEMs are too archaic to try. Buy a Honda grandpa.

[@radoslavdimitrov1101]

You guys are EXTRA Awesome 👏 Whatever the subject is you are as witty as anyone can be... keep up the good work! P.S James this steering wheel is only there to make us talk about it, it will never be available unless Elon wants 10000000000 law suits from every corner of the world 😜

But why are Teslas so ugly. They just look boring, lame & unappealing for a futuristic wonder car.

[@toology55]

Chill mode.

[@ScreamsPenguin]

Elon Musk is an insufferable child with the emotional intelligence of a stapler, but no one is complaining about ICE cars being "too fast" on the drag strip/to 60. We (as humans) like to go fast and we want to go faster, always.

[@alanhorn8253]

That WAS true until more normal cars got super fast, just like it was true for jet fighters until other aspects became more important and the goal became "fast enough"

[@jonathansage2147]

Agree so hard.

[@caseyscales2087]

Love the show but really love these :)

Tesla is begging to overtaken by another well established auto maker. That wheel is pure trash. Most gimmicky car company by far. If they were smart they'd partner with ford or something and just provide the powerplant. Like Cummings and Dodge.

[@JoshuaTootell]

GM will eventually surpass them (and I'm not a GM person).

[@santiagocalderon3261]

The problem is that Tesla could make a car without a steering wheel or without doors and the fanboys would still buy it and say its the greatest car of all time

[@Jake-ig2kf]

@@santiagocalderon3261 this is true. This company is so overvalued though. They are worth more than Toyota even though they only delivered under 500K vehicles, and Toyota delivered 11 million this past year. Granted Tesla is involved in other industries. I just think as soon as other automakers take the step to convert to a majority EV fleet, Tesla Autos is going to come crashing down. Or who knows? Maybe they will just continue artificially inflating their stock to be one of the most valuable companies.
