The Cybertruck depends on a range extender in the bed to go more than its 340-mile max, but Tesla claims it will out-accelerate a Porsche 911 while towing a Porsche 911.

EV charging on busy weekend and road-trip routes could suddenly become more expensive for Tesla drivers—especially when they need to get the most range out of their EVs.

For navigation and route planning, Tesla considers a wide range of factors including driving style, temperature, humidity, cloud cover, and wind.

Tesla may have installed the wrong airbag for Model S and Model X owners who opted to switch from the available steering yoke back to the steering wheel, or vice versa.

Such an affordable EV might help Tesla be even more competitive in Europe.

The Tesla DC fast chargers will be deployed starting in 2024, and it marks the first sale of Tesla's chargers to a third-party charging network.

The average price of a Tesla is 25% lower than the same period last year, while Tesla's share of the U.S. EV market has fallen to 50% for the first time in years.

The Tesla Model Y and Model 3 now cost well below $40,000 in their base versions if you can claim the EV tax credit. Most other EV makers haven't followed with official price cuts quite yet.

The Tesla Model 3 is also the only model on that list in which leasing costs more per month than buying.

Tesla also reported in September it has reached 50,000 Superchargers globally, maintaining its position as the top global fast-charging network.

An updated aero look and various cabin updates herald the first significant refresh for the Model 3 since its 2017 U.S. arrival and 2019 arrival in Europe.

Adjusted for the vehicle population, the Tesla Model 3 and Model Y have the lowest frequency of claims of any vehicles—and the IIHS suggests a simple explanation.

Results show no significant acceleration of range degradation for those who fast-charge 90% of the time versus those fast-charging less than 10% of the time, according to Recurrent.

A "virtual power plant" pilot program will pay Tesla Powerwall owners to provide an extra boost to stabilize the electrical grid at peak times.

Tesla's latest price adjustment teases a lower price for the Model X and Model S, with reduced driving range—albeit a larger battery with range to be potentially unlocked later with an extra fee.

The problem is frequently accompanied by "driver-facing messages indicating that power steering assist is reduced or disabled."

The route connects to a factory being built in Mexico, and Tesla reportedly told Texas officials that the project could qualify for federal grants being distributed under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk's recent choices to buy Twitter and become more politically vocal have led to a contingent of owners leaving the brand, a Bloomberg survey found—although 75% of Model 3 owners said they were considering another Tesla.

Reuters reported that Tesla last year became "inundated" with customer complaints about range, though it "could not determine" whether Tesla still uses algorithms that exaggerate indicated range estimates.

Tesla is still fighting direct-sales bans in some states, and getting creative about how to bypass franchise-focused rules.
