They look great Grumpy. I like how they cover all the rim. I really didn't like the silver covers. I have seen people spray paint them black and make the car look so much better.

Look good. I got some cheap nobrand ones like this for my wife's car but the clips that hold them on all cracked and broke. Hopefully these are better quality

I do agree! In my opinion, they do look great. Pity I can't use them on Seal. Greetings Grumpy.

Excellent and informative video Nigel

Chirp sound effect from classic Saab 900 from 1988-1994.

Great news for new buyers.

i think it’s crazy when talking about ranges one doesn’t simply considers using ranges… like simply tell us the range of maximum and minimum ranges with most extremes driving styles/conditions…

Personal Opinion, i will never buy a EV, the "Save the Planet" is hyped up BS to buy this fire hazards. Plastic waste is the biggest pollution concern IMHO, Global warming is normal before we hit the next Ice Age, starting about 2050, do some research - NOT GOV research though, they Lie!!!

Not available in the USA.

This takes too long for me and i'm not even sure i want an EV. I got a very well specced late 2022 Cupra eHybid with 8000km for a reasonable price to see if that suits my driving profile and decide if the next one is going to be an EV or another PHEV with over 100km of EV range in maybe 3-5 years.

Electric cars are still overpriced. Insurance on electric cars is very high too. infrastructure and charging speed needs to be improved also.

Welcome back Grumpy and thanks for the reviews.

Thank You, Nigel -- again I love the subject You are touching on. Price war! It was the original reason that got me into the Seal camp. As I was almost ready for the Model Y, minus the cash in my pocket. Plus the things I didn't like about the Tesla. Like no buttons and white seats. And I consider my decisions right till today. Keeps me happy and sleeping well. And in the case of the war? It must be a good thing? Mainly for the Aussies? The more of it? -- the better. Hardly happens! The war -- I mean. Greetings, and Thank You. Bye.

Thank you for the video, it helps me a lot when I had the same trouble just now!

Thanks Grumpy, pretty good even from a West of Australian.

Must admit, I expected more with this redesigned version, but still very good. Ordering one tonight...

Hi Nigel, You are looking good! Overworked, underpaid! And still kicking. Oceans away! Well, just like You (again) --- I'm still in the Seal circle. Still in love with the bastard. Maybe, cose it serves me so well. Juniper is looking well -- according to my taste buds. But, I'm staying where I'm. In my Seal that means. Improvements of Juniper? -- surely there are many. And by my choice, I can do without them. Happy New Year Nigel. Adam. Bye.

There was a time when other brands copied Tesla, now by the exterior, it looks the other way around. Maybe because other brands have leapt forward in design as Tesla marked time for Elons (pun intended).

why would you click bait and lie? some horrible characters

06:10 I'm glad you said it Nigel. I was thinking....that front light bar look is taken straight from BYD. Those yanks are just ripping off chinese design.lol. Also the on road price is a complete rip off. Alsp those rear wheel drive vehicles which make up the majority of Tesla EV's sold would go nowhere without the help of a chinese LFP battery. The extra 11km range is just marketing BS.

The new Tesla model y is ugly old 400v architecture Xpeng G6 is a lot better looking car with 800v architecture wouldn't give fascist Elon 1cent of my money

Yeah nah needs new battery technology and air suspension not to mention FSD. These minor refreshes should come every year. I'm going for the other brands. Tesla has fallen too far behind the alternatives.

Number plate lower down, where will the towbar be?

On the order page there is a picture that shows the indicator stalk. You can see it where you were talking about the autopilot options

So, the name of the Brazilian president is Lula da Silva. I'm surprised you didn't know his name. He would have to be one of the most famous politicians in the world. One thing you did not mention is that Ford and some German companies are leaving Brazil after having had large manufacturing operations there for many decades. These companies are making a massive mistake! Also making a massive mistake is Tesla which should already in Brazil to compete. My guess it is already too late I think that Tesla is going to regret wasting time in countries such as Australia which require non standard models and are a blind alley rather than concentrating on the Brazilian market. I seem to remember that the Brazilian government and in particular the Lula administration tried to interest Tesla in about 2020. I'm guessing now but I believe that Brazil is the fastest growing EV market in the world. But also Brazil is a Mercosul country which makes its market area massive. In addition Brazil is a way for US companies to enter the African market. People need to remember that Africa is the continent with the fastest growing economy. Why Ford is leaving and why Tesla is not in Brazil cannot be understood.

If you're so worried about saving the planet why are you travelling overseas? Seems a bit hypocritical really imo?

Merry Christmas!

Have a merry Christmas Grumpy old man

Than you sir. Good and informative session. And I am from Perth WA :)

Ah the joys of Guarulhos airport, looking forward to returning next year.

Cheaper Chinese EVs with a decent sized battery and local production, just a matter of time. Solar and Hydro power leading the way where EVs are a logical follow up.

Argentina has huge huge huge inflation.

Nice one Grumpy, the oil supported press need to be countered. 👍😊

So you carry on about saving the planet with EV's and renewables you are jumping on a plane or ship to travel around the place? Seems a bit ironic really. Sounds like the Argentine Govt. doesn't want to waste taxpayer funds pushing all of the same rubbish our pollies are to me. Good on them.

Just wondering that maybe there's no incentive to purchase EV's. Isn't Argentina oil rich & the gov makes lots of money exporting the stuff. What's the cost of petrol /diesel per litre in Argentina compared to Australia ?

Thank You, Nigel! Didn't know any of that. It makes me to feel better being an Australian. Merry Christmas.

I want one 😃👍🏻

I am bitterly disappointed that they have cancelled the puma gen e (the u is pronounced you not oo), I have been saving for 4 years to buy a puma and was very excited when they announced an electric version was coming. I think the pricing should have beeen $45-50 thousand aud. I watched a video the other day about the f150 lightening and the reason the sales are not going well for the lightening in the USA is not because of demand but rather because the dealerships only ordered in the high spec very expensive model when the customers wanted to the lower spec, much cheaper model and so stock wasn’t moving - unfortunately Ford doesn’t control the dealers and that is where the problem lies.

Sounds like Ford are just going to hide behind tariff walls and hope they still have enough good will from their regular customers.

How much was your travel insurance to do this trip?

Happy travels

Safe travels Grumpy.

Happy holiday. Sounds like a great tour!

Merry Christmas Nigel! Whatever You'll give us is always welcome. Happy to hear You are doing well! All the best and safe travels.

This will sell well. Looks great. New customers like the young crypto boys-gals etc brash with an exotic twist who pose with lambos! This ain’t for the older generation of leather elbow pads, ex-spitfire pilots and all!

Merry Christmas and safe travels

that is the challenge, they will be much too dear, and Ford know Ausi is being invaded with good quality, reasonably priced evs from China.

I'm currently in the process of getting one, Excite 51, through novated lease. The pricing is what Drew me towards it, but more so the LFP battery was my big push towards it. I'm getting it through fleet pricing and it being exempt from the fringe benefit tax it comes to 28,000 for me.

As wise businessman once said: There are organisations that make things happen, there are organisations, that watch things happen, and the ones that wander what happened. For lot of the car makers the road is ending...

get a grip lads ,wait till it comes out , you guys sound like a bunch of babies, no disrespect
