Sandy Munro: Model Y is the best EV Tesla makes

[@MunroLive]

We’d like to give a heartfelt thanks to Sean for hosting Sandy on the show! Always a pleasure catching up with you, and we appreciate the support!

Mr.Munro, one merchandise suggestion: please add your most recognizable phrase, “don’t forget to tip your cashier” on the back of your shirts/swearshirts. It’s a timely comment, unique to this era and an inside baseball nod to those that follow you. All the best to you.

[@ChadKelly7]

What I'd like to see from Sandy and Tesla would be.... Tesla brings Sandy to the Cybertruck during development so he can make these suggestions BEFORE it's built so it becomes the greatest vehicle ever made. It has the potential!! Sandy's knowledge would guarantee it.

[@TA-ob6kz]

Yeah, it’s relatively inexpensive to get outside advice like Sandy and Mike Tracy. If these people are willing, why wait until after the vehicle is built to get their advice. And if they reveal anything, which they wouldn’t, no one would trust them again anyway. So, good suggestion.

[@jamesbell8861]

My vote is that I'd watch anything that Munro did ... I'm nerdy like that !!! Vehicle tear-downs are fascinating. Sandy's experience and insight is educational. Every episode I watch, I feel that much smarter !!! Looking forward to the CyberTruck and TESLA Semi Tear-Down.

[@davidbeppler3032]

What Mustang EV?

[@_PatrickO]

Neither is in any way interesting. Both are duds using commodity everything. No EV with poor efficiency matters or contains any worthwhile technology. The only interesting vehicle may be the new rav4 plugin hybrid coming out soon. They claim instant torque and 5.8s which is really fast. If it performs like that, it will feel like an EV and be real competition to the Y because it doesn't need charging away from home.

[@JasonWW2000]

I disagree with Patrick, the Mustang Mach-E would be very interesting, but it's a ways off from production.

[@electrified0]

They just need to make sure they follow or beat Tesla's update model and don't make the naiive mistakes all the other competitors do and ensure that their cars are built to age. All these "Tesla killers" start with a design that beats a current Tesla, but by the time they hit production they're already behind due to refreshes and software updates and lag further and further behind with each patch. They need to factor in FSD, supercharging networks, and where these things will be 2-5 years from today and either go all in to compete in those areas or go all in on being more affordable options.

[@capslock9031]

I'd be really interested in a deep dive into the VW ID.3, as soon as it comes out, since it's what VW is banking a great part of its future on! The MEB platform, that's in that car, is also going into a whole bunch of other VW-group brands, so it makes sense to know about its workings.

[@koruki]

That’s a good point but I think if they can’t do both they’re still better off pushing ahead in difficult things that their competitors don’t have and once far enough ahead they can hire away some experts to do the “easy” things.

[@brogcooper25]

@@dries248 For some things, I'll agree with you. But paint is not new or secret. There is plenty of industry knowledge out there and plenty of of people who know it. Tesla has experience painting over 1 million vehicles now for over a decade. They should be able to paint a car without orange peel. There is no other problem I can think of that is so instantly noticeable to customers and yet so solvable.

[@ColinFox]

At 30:30 the question comes up about cost, and whether 70% of the model 3 parts got reused. Sandy said that he didn't see that in his teardown, compared to his model 3 teardown, but the model 3 he's using as reference was older (a year?) than the model Y he's tearing down now. It may very well be that the model 3 has also been updated with these improvements, so that if Sandy tore a brand new 3 down he might find more commonality with the parts.

[@AllThingsEV]

Correct

[@grendal9800]

He examined a very early Model 3 - late 2017 and then fully tore down an early 2018 version. The Y is an early 2020. So a two year difference. As Sandy and Sean mentions, I expect a lot of the pieces that are slightly different in the Y are currently in the Model 3.

[@whattheschmidt]

@@catman1353 Hydrogen cars lose. They take almost 3x as much electricity to travel per mile. Batteries will also get better over time completely negating anything the hydrogen fool cell would try to do in the market. Perhaps for planes or special long distance / super heavy vehicles they have a role but even that is doubtful.

[@rantingcullinarian]

No one is close.

[@PersonManManManMan]

Noone really is that close at the moment, more like distant several competitors

[@MrAlRats]

@@whattheschmidt In the future, there will likely be fringe use cases that pure Battery electric vehicles won't be able to serve because of charging times. If charging times never catch up to the time it takes to fill up a hydrogen tank, then a small minority of ground vehicles will be Hydrogen-fuel-cell/Battery electric hybrids. Distributed hydrogen production at fuelling stations can serve these vehicles (a small electrolysis plant at each fuel station making their own hydrogen), especially if the majority of vehicles are pure Battery electric vehicles and the electricity is also produced from excess solar/wind farm generation on site. Seasonal storage of electricity, electric aircraft and various industrial processes may also benefit from distributed production of hydrogen from excess renewable electricity along with stationary battery storage.

I took the car to one body shop and they told me the paint could be fixed but it had so many issues that they would have to paint the whole car but the alignment of the doors and trunk could not be fixed. They don’t have enough certified body shops to handle all the work plus you would be paying a lot of dough to have it done right.

[@alborzdesign]

As interesting the engineering of the Hydrogen fuel cells are, I think with every auto-manufacturer admitting that BEV is the way to go there might not be much interest in that. The miurai is an engineering marvel but in the wrong time. If we didn't have lithium ion batteries they would be very interesting to the public. The VW ID.3 is coming soon so I'd love to see as much as possible about that car. It's positioned to compete with the model 3 and they're doing a lot of things differently in that car. Would like to see how VW would go about creating a BEV platform.

Or even something like showing how some processes got more refined over time. Honestly, so far, even explaining how doors are built was giving me some insight that I didn't have before, and that's what makes it worth watching.

As someone who extensive dealing(25yrs>) with body repairing Tesla’s and their high end German and Italian competitors, I can say their vehicle quality & after sales support was alarmingly poor. The quality of plastic replacement parts- particularly facias(bumpers) was so bad they looked like aftermarket / copy parts at best. We would often repair old fascia as new replacement one would arrive requiring hours of high building and spot repairs. Parts supply was always holding up key to key times. If customers Model# needed new door it would be supplied from Tilburg (5days shipping) even if one of my local SC had stock - we would have to prompt customer to complain to Tesla about parts delay. Some new vehicles looked like final stage QC / snagging was lacking or purposely left to dealer / customer sort issue between them. Our paint finishes caused original factory poor finish to be highlighted - orange peeling against nice fresh painted / polished glass like panel would frequently cause 4 way arguments customer x repairer x Tesla x insurance company. Panel gaps... No two cars had same specs. No chance gap gauges were in use. They did innovative and tech stuff amazingly well but old coach building and wet work was miles off the pace.

Fuel cell car breakdown would be awesome.... I would love to see the truck comparisons also...... Also, just doing a comparison in "general" about what Japan is doing for longevity (such as toyota's and honda') vs american cars like dodge and chevy and why the imports tend to last 100k miles more or better---- Seeing exactly what the difference is would be great.

Shocking to hear that Tesla’s newest model is the best. When does that ever happen?
