Life advice Buy a car, don t buy a Tesla

When buying a car, don't blindly choose Tesla. I heard that Tesla's control tuning is invincible, the steering is accurate, the acceleration is fierce, and the energy consumption is low. The cost of autonomous driving hardware is low, and the effect is stronger than other models. There are also all sorts of fun OTA updates, such as custom car lock sounds and light shows.

But when you pick up the car, you realize that something is wrong. First of all, it's really uncomfortable to sit, the chassis is too stiff, and it feels like you're sitting on a tractor. A small hill can shake out your stones. The seat is also hard, and it is easy to have back pain after sitting for a long time, especially when driving long distances, which is particularly uncomfortable. And there is no ventilation for the seats, and sitting in the summer is the same as in the sauna.

The rear space is also pitifully small, and the little man of 1.7 meters is a bit big, so Tesla owners generally don't pull people. It's not so cool to drive, the sofa doesn't have a dashboard, and you have to turn your head to see the speed and other information, which is really not friendly. The new model3 is more radical, directly cutting off the gear lever and turn signal, and changing it to a screen gear, which feels a bit ***

And Tesla is quite stingy, many places are not allowed to enter, obviously driving to work, he just won't let you in, and you have to find a place to park, and then ride a shared bicycle to work. What's even more excessive is that the price will be reduced the next day after buying the car, and your license plate has not yet been uploaded, and it is possible to lose 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. The appearance of more than 200,000 and more than 300,000 models is exactly the same, and laymen can't tell the difference at all, and it's useless to pretend to buy an expensive one.

The interior is even more rudimentary, and you have to buy everything yourself, including floor mats, sun blinds, mobile phone holders, storage boxes, and wheel protection. Scattered flowers, not 10,000 but 8,000. And as soon as you go online to show your car, you may be sprayed to the ground, even if you go back to your hometown, the old lady at the entrance of the village will say "brake failure".

Tesla does have a lot of problems, but the reason why I still choose it is that it treats all car owners equally, always puts the safety of car owners first, and does not judge the value by money. Whether it is the 3 and Y of the volume version, or the S and X of the small million, the active safety system is the same, the whole system is standard, and the invisible place is more attentive, and the anti-collision beam is really the conscience of the industry. Tesla's unified selling price, no price increase and hunger marketing, truly respect Chinese consumers, and treat them equally. In the direct sales model, you can buy a car at a fixed price across the country, and you don't have to entangle with the sales certificate back and forth.

The after-sales service is also good, and the warranty period is broken, no matter how much the value of the accessories will be replaced free of charge. Although the car is not perfect, the Tesla is the most suitable for me, taking me to the desert, the steppe, the Gobi Desert, and the rough sea. Although there are all kinds of shortcomings, it is always on top of my head, creating a little world of my own.
