8 of 15The app in the car together are amazing. They’re so well integrated allows. You to do just about everything you need to do. The car itself is an absolute life changer. Best investment purchase I ever made love the car the safety the features not much not to like. 
Unfairly billed at peak TOU rates. When I questioned this, I was told that the rate is based on Central Time Zone even though the charging station is located in Eastern time. Nothing in the app to indicate this.
I’ve put over 185,000 km on my 2023 Model 3 Long Range AWD, and let me tell you this car is an absolute thrill machine that perfectly balances cutting-edge tech with raw driving passion. I’m an insane driver who genuinely loves driving. Twisty roads, highway pulls, carving through traffic… it’s in my blood. Sure, the Full Self-Driving capability is mind-blowingly good (it handles real-world chaos better than most humans), but I’ll always choose to be behind the wheel. This is a true driver’s car: instantaneous torque that pins you back, razor-sharp handling, and that planted confidence even at triple-digit speeds. The only downside? No glorious engine roar or exhaust note to soundtrack the madness. It’s whisper-quiet acceleration instead of symphonic fury but once you adapt, the silence just highlights how insanely quick and composed this thing is. Tesla has nailed the perfect modern performance EV. If you’re a driving enthusiast who still wants to stay engaged, this car delivers like nothing else. Five stars all day. Highly recommended now excuse me while I go find another empty backroad. 🚀⚡
This car is so fun to drive. Fun to drive past the gas stations. Spiffy looking, turning heads in the parking lot at work. Easy to hop in and hop out
Another false update forced by QEloon to clear the negative ratings. Strange how the app and car only work if I out a white hood on my head. Almost as if Qelon wants everyone to know to drive a teSSla you have to be a white nationalist as he is.
Love Tesla love the app
Please change the location of the charging percentage and amps. Since it is located on the home page it is too easy to change those settings by mistake. So frustrating. Thank you.
The slider for the charging percentage needs to be put in a place where it is not so easily moved
