          This and they have chargers up there.

          It's cause people in murica spazzes and leave 50km on the battery and ask why they don't make it to their 100km destinationin sub zero

    • It's not going to beat the BMW, Mercs etc in terms of interor feel

      That's the reaseon I didn't go for Tesla plus no head up display.

    • +5

      If you think so? Then legacy auto should be worried cos at that price every ice and hev currently valued at 40k is not worth 40k. Every ice and hev cars will tank in value rapidly.

    Now is probably the worst time to buy a new car, especially EVs, super especially Tesla.

      Still planning to get a SUV EV in the next two months despite the price drop hysteria.

        • +5

          In what world would a brand new model Y at 45k AUD will happen? No one will be buying Corolla and Camry along with the RAV4 at that point.

          Even if I get slugged 10k drop. I get to enjoy the ev experiences and finally have a two car in my household after one car ownership for a couple of months. Planning to keep the suv ev for a good while.

          • @ChickenAdobo: “ In what world would a brand new model Y at 45k AUD will happen”

            First quarter 2025..

            That’s all 😗

            • +2

              @Iwantthebestprice: lol at that point the model Y juniper will be out at much higher price and low stock due to high demands worldwide.

              Let see who is right ☺️

              • @ChickenAdobo: “ much higher price and low stock due to high demands”

                We will see girl ;) chat in 6 months bebs

          • @ChickenAdobo: You need to learn basic law of supply and demand. Price is determined by who wants to pay for it. Tesla cars have been sold way with way too much margin and large amount of profit went to Elon's pocket. Maybe that's not the case anymore margin needs to drop to match with more competitors.

            • @Saku-kurata: I’m referring to juniper model y. I know that people are eagerly waiting for the new model. Choosing to skip the current model.

              As of right now the market price reflect the demands. There are people buying at this price point as they need a ev suv now.

              • @ChickenAdobo: Fair enough. Also currently there are lot of fears on the second hand EV market, as it is dropping much more than ICE. I supposed a lot of people now taking this into consideration. It is safer to go hybrid (whether its PHEV or pure hybrid) so you still can enjoy the advantage of EV whilst having petrol as your back up - but that's just my two cent.

                • @Saku-kurata: The PHEV car would be perfect car for long trips and for my wife scenario. Unfortunately my mileage can go beyond the fully charged PHEV range. Hence why I’m seeking a EV, can never go back to an ice car again as my next purchase.

                  The micro vibration that make you tire out more. The noise from the engine and the fuming petrol in the garage when I’m waiting for the someone to enter the car. Too many con for an ice car after experiencing electric motoring.

        • +6

          I’ve bookmarked your comment so I can laugh at you in 3 months. Bets it will be closer to the current price than $10k cheaper.

    • +3

      Once they reach price parity with an engine car it will be a great time to buy them.
      Almost there, maybe next year.
      With the fuel and maintenance saving it probably would work out cheaper even now over 10 years ownership - especially if you have solar at home.

      • +2

        Except for the insurance which is absolutely wild on any EV.

        • +1

          Agreed. It's basically putting me off purchasing a Model 3 or Y.
          Getting quotes (at the cheapest end) of around $2500 per year up to nearly $4k!!! (No claims, perfect driving history NCB, etc, etc.
          Got a quote for a GT Mustang -> $1100…

          • +1

            @Maz78: all the people citing insurance costs and quoting 2-4k. There was even a post in OZbargain showing the different insurer prices. I got my MY last week, insured for 1.3k with agreed value and choice of repairer.

          • @Maz78: Yep I just got a quote on a base spec mg4 and it was $1600! On a $40k car! So much more than any other car I've owned.

    2 min silence for recent Tesla owners.

    • +2

      Why? They were happy with what they were getting for the price they were buying at.

      If you bought a car for $70k and were happy paying that much for the features you were getting, then why does it matter whether it's $50k or $90k next week?

      I'm being facetious, but buying cars has always been like this. My uncle was a Toyota salesman - plenty of stories about a person walking into buy a Corolla, thinking they got a good deal, just for him to sell to the next customer for $2k less because they negotiated better.

      • +1

        but buying cars has always been like this.

        Couldn't be further from the truth.
        Combination of falling prices in recent months, rapid changes in tech, unprecedented competition from China, inflation in car prices in general after Covid-19 means current times have never been seen before.

      • Yep I negotiated 15% off a Mazda, took a time with a few appoinents. You don't have to do that with a Tesla.

        • +6

          Negotiated 25% off my car by dedicating a day to hitting up a bunch of dealerships and pitting them against each other. Really didn't take that much effort. Will probably drive my ICE car into the ground until the EV market to reaches a point of sane, negotiable pricing. Probably need another 2 or 3 years.

          • @dontpanic: I'd like to see a world where negotiations don't exist and everyone pays a flat price. Or better yet, income-based prices.

            • @MKBHD: Nah, I'm happy with getting discounts from mega corporations when they fail to get their stock levels right. If you want to pay a flat rate, the sticker price is right there for you.

      • -1

        It's does matter my friend. It hurts at a minimum. Haven't you seen people crying here when something gets priced $20 cheaper the next week. $5k is a lot of money for me at least.

        Tesla needs to give a 6 month price difference guarantee.

        • so if they go up in price net month you have to pay the difference?

          • @redfox1200: Has any other price guarantee worked like this?

      • It matters as your asset that you may wish to resell in 3-5 years just took a massive hit to its resale value days after purchase. I would be pissed if the car I just purchased dropped $10k in value a week after buying.

  • Can we have a Model 2 please? Don’t need a bigger car and can’t stretch to $50k plus. The current sub 40k cars aren’t appealing.

    • i guess the model 2 would be the evolution, then Tesla's cars would be 2-S3XY

  • +4

    Other thing might make people think is that there are some good EV power plans available that provide 8c per kw between midnight and 6am. The pick was the agl plan which is only around 25c per kw outside of that time which is very competitive (and just quietly didnt have to proove you own a EV to sign up). I dont know about you, but im pretty happy to heat my house with reverse cycle overnight for 8c per kw.

    Additionally the 8c per kw will charge a model y from 0 to 100% for $4.80. Not bad for 420 odd km. Most charges though will be less than half of that.

    Also if you have a lease you are refunded at 30c per kw. So your taxable income is reduced by 30c per kw, so actual tax paid is reduced by 9c per kw if youre in the 30% bracket. In short you're getting paid 1c per kw to charge it lol

    • I seems to recall someone mentioned about OVO have free periods for charging EV or something….wonder which is better…

      • Origin Energy (regardless of which plan you're on) also provide EV charging for 8c/kWh as long as their app controls the charging times, so it automatically turns it off during peak periods. Really cool feature.
        Only works with Teslas at the moment. Compared with other providers, on Origin I'm paying 80.1c/day service, 30.7c/kWh all day usage and 7c/kWh solar FiT (Ausgrid NSW) which is quite competitive.
        Edit: the AGL night EV plan also is very good pricing in my area. Hmm

      • +1

        Ovo have the same overnight, and free between 11am and 2pm. If you have solar there isn't much benefit there. Their standard rate iutside of that time is in the 30c range making it a lot more expensive.

        Origin plan connects to your car and needs full access to all your cars data. So they are pretty much farming info from you. Then it tells your car when to charge and provides a discoint rate of only they amount of power your car uses. If you're ok with the data it can be good as it charges other times during the day

        The agl plan gives the 8c off all power used between 12 and 6 so you can plan to use power overnight and not during the day, and their daily rate is cheaper by 20%

        • so sounds like AGL is the best even if I dont have a tesla yet…the main selling point for me is the 12-6am at 8c…guess you can setup timers for clothes dryer etc to start between then right? ie. they wont know whether you are charging a car or not right?

          The other thing I found out is I'd need a digital meter installed, so will need to find out how much that would cost me…

  • +3

    I'll get one when I can order it in Canberra and it's able to drive itself and recharge along the way to Perth.

    • +1

      I drove Perth to Melbourne last year. Saw two Model 3's on the Nullabor. I was quite surprised myself as I have range fear but they got there somehow.

      • +2

    While we're at it. Anyone got a good alt power solution so I don't need to hand a fortune over every month to the greedy and evil powe companies? I'm over these bandits and my power consumption keeps going up with home automation, heaters and in the future a Tesla once Elon gets his s*t together and produces a proper luxury vehicle not an overpriced pretend like the model Y is.

    • Panel and battery

    • Look at your hot water system first. Heat Pump's are king, esp if you have excess solar generation during the day.
      Look at your insulation and air movement, windows. Modern Oz houses are built for 1960s perceptions, have terrible R values due to poor design, aspect, required sizes, let alone shoddy construction that isn't always obvious
      Look at your heating; reverse cycle ACs are king.
      Look at your cooking, using gas is for nomadic tribes, nearly zero losses and neqar perfect control using induction
      Disconnect from gas and save >$1/day before consuming any of it…

  • +4

    Excellent to see them becoming more affordable as they are nice innovative vehicle eminently suitable for many (But not all) light vehicle use cases .

    I would buy one tomorrow if I could afford one (But they are getting closer) for my urban & regional run-a-bount, but unfortunately I still need to keep an old dino-fueled vehicle for rural towing and remote area driving duties. Future generations of EVs will become suitable for those use cases as well.

    But before you ask for more government subsidies remember that car importers (Seen when working for a car importer) operate on around 100 percent markups from the landed cost including all shipping and taxes to the retail price.

    There is lots of fat that could be trimmed from the supply chain before resorting to taxpayer funded handouts to prop up the importers profitability.

    I just read that average charging costs for EV is only 20% cheaper than running on petrol currently. This is very disappointing I thought it would be way cheaper

    • +3

      Average includes folks not savvy enough to simply research an EV-geared power plan. As our consumption is more than half all usage spent on car charging, it would be heaps more expensive to not have a time of use tariff to charge the car.

      Presently paying 10.03c/kwh between midnight and 4am every day (with Powershop Power Drive plan) for our charging, which is just over $6 to fully charge. And you never charge at 0% so it's actually cheaper. Getting about 400km range from 100%.

      It's anything but disappointing.

    • +7

      Done over 13k km, only ever charged the car in my free electricity window with OVO.
      13k km for free not bad…

    • What did you read? A comparison on a long distance road trip?
      The majority of EV owners charge at home and the average cost would be under half the cost of petrol cars. Those with solar and cheap plans are under 10% of petrol costs.
      I’m currently renovating and can’t charge at home and using public charging and it still costs about half what fuel costs would be in an efficient petrol car.

      • Can you simply charge using typical charging outlet?

        • +1

          You need an adapter, which most cars come with although Tesla no longer provide one with the car, but yes you can plug it into any power point and charge. It’s slow from a standard 10a power socket. Like 20+ hours to get 80% increase. But most people are charging every other day and just topping up like 20-30% over night

    • +1

      Maybe if you always charge away from home at paid chargers. If you charge at home (as most probably do), then it's cheap as chips. Charging almost exclusively from solar it only costs me $1.50 to drive 100km in lost FIT. Even at my regular electricity prices it would be $3 to drive 100 km, whereas with petrol around $2 and a reasonably efficient car getting say 7.5L/100 (around town) then you're paying $15 per 100km for driving your ICE vehicle. There is no comparison.

    • +1

      I pay 8c between 0 to 6AM, which makes around 6$ to fill my EV to 100% and drive 600km, in which universe I can fill full tank of petrol for 6$? On top of that we scheduled all of our home appliances to 0-6am to take advantage of 8c per kw.

  • +4

    Impressive. A Model Y RWD with about 400km real world range, and its sizeable storage for just $5k more than we bought a Hyundai Ioniq Electric 28kwh only five years ago. 👍

    • +1

      And it's being spun as "EVs have terrible depreciation". The same people were complaining that EVs were too expensive just a short time ago.

      • I'm still really struggling with the mentality that an automotive purchase could ever possibly be an investment to make money on. When has this ever been the norm? Yet people are losing their minds over an instantly-depreciating purchase as not holding up in value over time. People pay what they're able to, at a time they can afford it, for an agreed upon vehicle. If you're banking on a car going up in value after purchasing, might need to check those expectations.

  • +1

    Inventory stocks most likely coming with hardware 3. New stocks from March/April comes with hardware 4. I guess thats the reason reducing inventory stocks price.

    • +4

      That's exactly the reason, clearing out old HW3 cars. The sales rep at Tesla told us this 2 weeks ago.

      • +1

        But HW4 has no USS… Terrible without for inner city parking

        • Elon Musk has hinted that HW4-equipped cars could be 3 to 5 times more adept at autonomous driving. We know that HW4 has more ports for additional cameras as well.

          For the auto park, Tesla suggest HW4 will have it once the software update available (over the air)

    • The wifes 2023 Model Y with hardware 3 is incredible on Autopilot, my 2019 Model 3 also on hardware 3 is far less so. FSD is working fine on hardware 3. Yes 4 is obviously better, but so will hardware 5 be in 18 months time. Tesla hardware is getting incrementally better all the time, even if its unannounced.

      Why ? I am with RACWA. I have 2 ICE and 1 EV, and the insurance on my EV is about $200 more ($890 vs $1100; couldn't remember exact figures), due to being more expensive.

    • it can't be crazy if the sum insured is less than 45k.

    I just bought a tesla with TFM leasing. It is very competitive compared to other NL companies. Total cost came to around $860 p/m effect on take home pay.
    Insurance is fixed with TFM which came to around 1.5k and includes all drivers + rental car + w/s protection + $720 worth of charging p.a.

    Highly recommended.

    • Do you have a link to their page. Multiple option when googled

      Well your claim is that the world's best selling car is struggling to sell. It's all about your perspective.

      • It isn't struggling to sell, but their factory output rates are currently higher than sales which is problematic. they have had multiple plant shutdowns this year to reduce inventory.

  • https://interestingengineering.com/transportation/elon-musk-…

    Related too above post, myself following pricings of all EV's advertised online, even used ones especially namely the MG MG4 Excite 51 IEV was interested in purchasing, seeing the used pricing of these, dare I use the term, pricings falling "dramatically" and these are last years 2023 models with low km's under 10k priced at low pricings, especially used EV's in QLD (I guess due to QLD's Gov EV discounts), also the MG4 Excite 51 has one of the lowest battery range, well also BYD will be coming out with a new battery later this year that will have a battery range of 1000KM's, so that is Melbourne to Sydney in one charge, well has been estimated used EV values have been falling at a rate of 14% more then non EV vehicles, reckon certain model EV's are falling at a faster rate namely the MG4 Excite 51 I was interested in biying, just saying with my observations of the EV market 😉
