The Tesla Model S P90D with Ludicrous Mode is the quickest production sedan on earth, hitting 0-60 well under 3 seconds and running quarter miles in the 10 second range. It features a 275-mile electric-only range, air suspension, all-wheel drive, and of course, Autopilot. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Matt went full slav with his clothes this time :D
I'm not done with the video yet, but i wanna see him squat with a cigarette before its end.
yeah but no Slav would wear ABs gear
C'mon I'm slav, and no one I know wears, or even owns a track suit :)
Nico my cousin! You want to go bowling?
lookin like a geeza chav
It needs an aftermarket exhaust.
BZZZZzzzzzzzz *shift* BBzzZZZZ
Like a playing card in the wheels
Hey Nathan, what do you think about a tune, short ram intake and a turbo back exhaust. You think that would help?😂😂💀💀
They should "pump" sound through the stereo, like they do in some modern cars. Maybe a AMG/M3/F-Type mode. It would up shift and down shift the same times those cars would (If they were in Auto) and make the same sound.
Just a thought, some people that have the car might like it.
This car needs nitrous!
i think this is the first of matts vids where the sense of speed actually comes through the video
It also comes through in the supercharged Huracan video
You mean doesn't?
+SSophisticated what about the testla roadster?
I think its just because he's hauling some real ass
Yeah, when it comes to videos, car look slow unless they have crazy acceleration. Like watching drag races with car that get 10 second times. It takes cars doing like 7 seconds to make them look fast on a video.
Silly Tesla fact: You can decipher if a P90D has the optional ludicrous mode if it has a stripe under the P90D badge.
They should have made the badging plaid or something.
they should add a ludacris face badge like the hemi super bees and roadrunners
+UnlinealHand the next shift up from Ludicrous is rumoured to be called plaid. I'd love it if it was! lol
+UnlinealHand SpaceBalls!...hahahaha!
Maximum Plaid will be on the new model, the Roadster
I actually like the new nose...
Same, its nice and sleek.
Same, I like it much more, looks cleaner.
Yep. It's nice to see so something different.
it makes all other car grills look gory
+
"-and ludicrous mode means move bitch get out the way. I do a 100 on the highway-"
so if you doin the speed limit get the FUCK outa my way
Or you about to get ran the fuck over!
and you know im not going to drive sober!
Noooo lol its "dui hardly ever caught sober"
Ink Authentics
I know the song I was just thinking about the car driving itself.
Why didn't you show a shot of the motor? I wanted to see that sweet ass bundle of cables.
pretty sure you need to disassemble part of the car for that
Looking at the "engine" would void the warranty.
you have to take off the chasse of the car to see it
The motor only gets power for 3x Fat Cables, not a bundle. The Motor & Inverter-Controller is like a two Waterwellons. It has a relatively normal Trans-Axel with single reduction gear & open differential. Quite the neat package very simple easy to understand.

I think when autopilot engages an inflatable doll should fall from the headlining and take over.
Men in Black in a Tesla
I love the new nose!
Yep, Model 3 looks even better.
It's awesome, especially when you're driving one and you get out. Super cool.
+venomman model 3 looks like a frog
Yes it's grown on me and now like it better
oisiaa looks uglier lol
As a mobile window tinter here in California, I'm fortunate to be able to drive a lot of different cars, some good, a lot not so good. I had the distinct pleasure to tint a Model S P90D and afterwards the owner was all to happy to take me on a drive. I even got to drive it back. Now, I'm not a stranger to fast cars...my daily driver is a slightly modified Evo 9! But this Tesla, especially in Ludicrous mode, is mind boggling fast...like pull the skin off your face fast! I'd give my first born to be able to be able to own one, but sadly, all that tech is WAY out of my price range.
9:18
That surge of power on that stretch of road really says it all.
Watching this 5 years later- 14:21 has some of the best advice Tesla ignored and continues to ignore.
I think the new front looks much nicer and more modern.
Love Tesla. Cant wait for my Model 3. 155,000th or so in line heh.
How's the wait going?
I have never been in a tesla but the one word that springs to mind whenever i see the dash or interior is hollow and you're the only other person that i have watched whos says the same thing.
Can't get over how quiet it is. It's like you're just floating along. Awesome stuff.
Door handles are awesome. Interior is awesome, clean and simple. Love it
I think the new face looks better. Looks more modern compared to the old one if you see them side by side.
That thing is amazing! I love how it sounds like a spooling computer hard drive when it's accelerating hahaha
Thank you Matt, this is one of the best reviews I've ever seen done of a model S. Balanced, informative, objective, and while you acknowledge the differences between it and the internal combustion monsters you're used to driving, you didn't flog for not being the same. Excellent job my man.
where are all these alleged people asking for t-shirts?
Buying them! We've sold nearly 2,000 shirts in the last week! Murdering!
Reminds me of the guys who have TH-cam channels and makes videos "because people keep requesting" and they have 10 views per video, no comments and 1 sub lol
I bought one. Love the channel and the T-Shirt looks very good. Thanks to Matt from Germany
Dam you typed what I was gonna say.
Never been so keen for a one take
One of my favourite TST videos in a while. Keep it up Matt
One of the best, most objective, and informative Tesla reviews that I've seen. Thank you!
"A little more something" means more weight, and more weight means less city range.
Given that the car is already at 4800 pounds and makes 700 lb*ft of torque, I don't think an extra 50 or 100 pounds of material is going to hurt too much.
SDD525 more power in a gas car didn't mean less mpg, with a proper tune you'll get better economy
No Doug, I'm not clicking the link to your review on autotrader
Love how you have the JRE playing in that Tesla. Agree with previous comment, one of the best episodes, and one of the podcasts i have kept on my ipod since.... Good work Matt, always love the One takes!!!!
One of the most entertaining One Takes you've done
Great comment on inherently seeing cars as having anthropomorphic features. I've always thought the same.
Any time I get a new Mazda 3 in my rear view I can't help but only see a ridiculously huge smile on the front of it.
That's why some people put the angry eyelids on their cars, lol.
SDD525
ugh... at least the eyelids make some cars look cool... but those eyelashes... *shudders*
It's definitely uglier. That's a shame.
yeah, the prefacelift looked much better with the "grill"
+SympathRS why is that in quotes, it was a grill.
well it was a grill but not a grill in the traditonal sense as normal grills are supposed to allow air to channel into the engine compartment to aid cooling
i hated the facelift but it has grown on me.
SympathyRS No a grill is just an opening at the front of the car.
Haven't seen you have this much fun in a while!
Matt!!! this is the first time i have ever yelled at the screen watching you do these one takes. You should NOT try to have AP do canyon runs. This is where the driver gets to drive! other than that, thank you for shedding some light these car! they are incredible to drive!
D stands for Dual Motors lol, which does result in AWD but not the same really
Yeah
***** What an analogy!
I actually like the new front. I didn't at first but it grew on me
Thanks for the video! Been wanting to see you have fun with one of these things.
It glides through the corners so well and then accelerates like a rocket!
Autopilot is mainly for highways not canyon roads
like cruise control. i've never used cruise control on twisty roads.
Of course. But that doesn't mean I shouldn't test it outside of its element.
Auto pilot is for going to sleep due to the lack of anything resembling a driving experience.
Pretty sure he knows that. He was just testing to see if it could handle the turns.
Damn everyone listens to Joe Rogans podcasts
Best podcast out there. Been listening for nearly 4yrs and still learn so much from him.
Matt has also been onnit.
his guests for the past month have been a snoozefest
+Kino what episode is that?
Russel Brand episode was really good too!
This is the future for sure, no doubt.
I've been waiting for episode since the big bang... congrats!!!
Matt looks like someone out of a modern day Sopranos episode.
> Sells shirt during the period 9 - 19th of August.
> Uploads video 17th of August with 2 days left to purchase.
Lmao 😂😂
"Ding ding!" Matt, please don't let me crash! lol I live in Northern Cal and I see a lot of Teslas and, yes, I still notice every one. I'd love to drive one sometime, they're gorgeous cars.
@ 9:05 "look at this...OOP people walkin'" LOL I lost it
It is incredible what Tesla has achieved. However they give all the speed and none of the noise that goes with it. The noise is part of the experience, part of the passion of achieving that speed. So while I love moving forward in technology, I'll pass on the non-alcoholic martini.
+Kevin Allen they should give it a manual transmission haha
manual trans and solid bushings. Racecar GEAR NOISES!! Think Formula E
I love the high tech whirl of the electric motor
Stas G. jshaw6600 Although I realize manual shiftable / flappy paddle transmission would likely be less efficient and slower, it would be a more fun driving experience. Kevin Allen raine2005 Hearing some kind of triumph triple like whistle noise, or turbo spool like noise, mechanical gear winding noise, etc., would be cool. Having seen these first hand, even with the windows down, it's eerie quiet. Electric Golf Carts make more noise. Reminds me of the Top Gear Vid where they turn off the cool cinematic music, and all you hear is tire squealing. I'm not advocating obnoxious noise, but I've gotten out of the wife's lexus and forgotten it was still on... and that's too quiet for me.
+Expat Johnny Lexus is meant to be super quiet, but you can always change the exhaust so you can hear the cars voice.
I love how everyone is giving Tesla shit about design, heritage, soul and what not but conveniently fail to mention the drag race nature of this car. For god's if you're in this you will know that there likely isn't a faster car near you... Doesn't that speak to you? If you have to compare it with something sensible it would be something way above it's price point. That just goes to show that you can't please everyone because whenever you're really close they will want heritage, soul or whatever else they can think of.
~10 seconds to the 1/4 mile is fast
looks even better now imo. i'm loving the new front-end. can't wait for it to become available in Greece...
I was working on some paperwork and once you said OMG! I looked directly at the screen. You got me.
so much Tesla hate 😂😂😂 would love to own one of these.
Same here
I love Tesla, best car ever made
Its a boring car, the interior is really cheap from what I've heard. Matt is being nice about it. Their plagued with electrical issues and mechanical failures. Its just not ready for prime time right now.
OK don't buy it then. Keep guzzling gas.
Minds Eye do you think it runs on fairy dust?
What are next gen seats?
I hope things keep progressing and I get to see what's available in 20 years
Matt, better than any other TH-cam review, your session with the Model S addressed my concerns and answered my questions. The car seems like a tremendous accomplishment but suffers from the inevitable shortcomings of being first to market with a new technology. Early adopters only need apply.
In space, no one can hear you accelerate.
Saw you were listening to Joe Rogan's podcast. ;)
That tracky top really accentuates your moobs Matt :)
Keep all the elements.. The automatic door handles are super authentic and one of a kind..
I don't get his logic of why he hates the look of the front. Based on what he said about "cars have human features", his C5 Corvette must be one of the weirdest looking cars ever. It has no "eyes" or "mouth"
Because fuck logic? lol
Mine does, I put the race headlights on it
THE PREVIOUS CAR WAS IMMEDIATELY IDENTIFIABLE AS A TESLA THIS LOOKS LIKE IT SLAMMED INTO A WALL.
I guess he doesn't want all cars to look like Irobot cars.
+TheSmokingTire I agree with you about this car's looks, personally I think they should have let Saleen design the front end. I love the look of the Saleen Tesla.
What is wrong about the nose? I adore it! I hated previous version with a grill-looking nose. It doesn't have need for a grill so I like it how it looks now.
It's a nosecone, not a grill. And Spaceships have Nosecones. Which is why the Model S had it. Because of SpaceX
+Mr Cars model S had it because that is way we saw beauty in a car. We wanted something that looks like a grill or whatever. Now Tesla is popular enough to force different design that is unusual for car but could be usual in future :)
Nebojša Kamenčić what noise? There is no noise
"Drives a bit like a drunk person." Possibly the best description of Autopilot so far.
Great vid. I get my Model S in about 60 days......cannot wait!!
not into it. wish i was but im not.
hate to say this but ... i would consider getting a tesla in the future
Man.. I can't even begin to describe how amazing it looks, It looks classy/elegant while at the same time being very modern and sporty
Maybe with the model 3 i'll be able to afford one someday..
wow. that looked fast!
both on the straights and around corners
What is that thunking noise
His stuff in the trunk.
CockatooDude oh
The trunk stuff- or him hitting the line bumpers it could be.
Line bumpers probably.
I can't get excited about this car. It may be fast - but has the soul of a BART train.
+SDD525 I don't know about that. When I shift from 2nd to 3rd I hear crackles and pops from my Subaru, close enough for me.
+SDD525 well some cars are very boring while other cars bring joy and make mechanical music when you drive them. For some people cars are more than just a form of transportation.
+SDD525 I've pushed my Subaru pretty hard in the hills over here in California. Going through windy roads at high speeds are pretty fun. I really want to go to a race track later some time. Working on upgrading my drive train and cooling before I try this though. Getting a hyper Exedy clutch, fly wheel and carbon drive shaft this tax return. Have a Tacoma that's been kinda neglected and putting a fresh set of tires on it this weekend, current tires are done.
+SDD525 well haven't seen any there, very remote place in the hills with no network coverage for miles. Can't wait until the day comes when my STI is fully upgraded to how I want it. Race track day, know some places crush cars for street racing so I avoid it.
+SDD525
Wtf are you even doing on this channel.
And also, ofcourse cars have a soul.
A soul is an artificial creation that humans have come up with.
It doesn't actually mean anything. We use it to describe something that we feel has a universal existence that transcends its material existence.
A car is a machine, just like a dog is a sack of bones and meat.
There is absolutely no way to prove the existence of a soul.
Anything can have a soul, depending on who you ask.
For example, I feel that some electronics that I own have a soul,.
Like for instance a graphics card that was my first good graphics card and that died and was resurrected through oven baking. twice.
I'll never even sell that thing, because I feel like I have a connection to it and it brings me memories.
And it's not like I'm just crazy, many people go through things like that, because that's how our brain functions.
Overall, if you're gonna be a smartass, at least actually use your brain and come up with more than just a cynical argument that in reality makes no sense..
I'm new to this channel so I don't know if no background music is normal here but at least in this case the video was much better for the lack of background music. Nice job mate.
No music, ever.
I got a ride in my friends P90D and your so right that it makes you queasy when you launch it
A supercarger and loud Exhuste, and you are good to go...
Wait WHat?
Matt, if they refine the interior, could you see yourself owning one?
I'd need to make a lot more money first but yes it's a great LA car
+TheSmokingTire Yeah, I bet it is. As someone who also appreciates engine sound, manual transmissions, and steering feedback, I was glad that you seemed to enjoy it so much despite those things being missing. Great video.
+TheSmokingTire Yeah, I bet it is. As someone who also appreciates engine sound, manual transmissions, and steering feedback, I was glad that you seemed to enjoy it so much despite those things being missing. Great video.
The yearning for the sound of combustion (which is an odd thing to desire because it's simply the by product of exploding noxious fumes) goes away quickly. I talk to car guys all the time about this and they can't imagine NOT wanting the sound of a tuned exhaust note. But I talk to Tesla owners that USED to like that, and they no longer do. Dust a few corvettes and you're tastes in fact change. (former manual C2s 911 owner). Stirring gears is a by product of have an antiquated transmission in the way - which is absorbing power and weight which the Tesla uses for acceleration. The Model S has no traditional transmission. I understand your points because I came from that mindset, but you're longing for a crank to start your model T Ford.
+Station 2Station Nope.
That thing seems so quiet inside. It honestly makes the two different aspects seem disconnected. I need to experience one of these. Cool video thanks for sharing.
Reminds me of my time in CO with a 70D driving up Mt Evans. Constantly smiling, laughing, holy shits, accelerating out of turns, just really enjoying the torque up a hill where the air is thin, space ship sounds, all that....yeah, those cars are amazing, can't wait to own a Model 3.
Matt, I say the following with all due respect, and I hope you take it as constructive criticism...
Terms like "Limited edition", "if you want one, you gotta buy it now", "available for 10 days only- and thats it!". You know what I'm getting at? It's a self branded T-shirt!! But it sounds like you're trying to sell off a salvage titled car to an ignorant, unsuspecting consumer. Bro, I sincerely love you and your work, and we all make a buck however we can... but pushing t-shirts like that is just so below your level man! Nothing wrong with selling shirts (I love them), it's just the way you're pushing them; and it goes on for almost a full minute at the beginning of the vid! There's no need to jam it down our throats. Your audience (especially the ones who buy the paraphernalia), trusts and respects you enough, that all you gotta do is just tell them what it is, how much it costs, and where to buy it. Skip the grease and the sleaze, pushing the product like that just makes you look bad - and it isn't getting you anymore sales!
Hate to break it to you, but this is by far the most successful shirt sale we've ever had. We tried your way, and it doesn't really work. This way works. In the last week, we've sold 2,000 shirts, more than five times the shirts we've sold in the history of the company.
Im not going to pretend to know your business better than you, so I stand corrected ànd am glad to hear its working out for you.
Now back to the car, what's that thumping noise in the drive by shots? Never noticed them do that around town.
+George Costanza it's the reflectors next to the lines
Dude, most youtubers sell T's man, and limited runs are 'extremely' common, it's an economics thing. Relax
You're absolutely right. I'm sure a lot of TH-camrs do, but I wouldn't be able to name even one of them to save my life. I am however, very familiar with the names of the ones who do not: Edward Loh, Jonny Lieberman, and Randy Pobst from Motor Trend; Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond from Top Gear. I don't recall ever seeing Chris Harris hawk his wares in a video; Justin Bell is way too classy; Jay Leno just wouldn't; and pigs would most certainly grow wings before Harry Metcalfe is caught selling a t-shirt of any kind. In all seriousness though, allow me to explain where I'm coming from. There are certain things that pros in the big time must do, and certain things they mustn't do, in order to gain/maintain the admiration and respect of their audience. Although Matt isn't quite at that level yet, I would like to see him there. He is one of my favourite presenters; I love his outlook, his style, and his demeanour. Sure a few quick and easy bucks are there for the taking; but at what cost? What affect does it have on one's reputation to be seen in the same light as those kids and other so called "car reviewers" on the internet who use their videos to sell t-shirts, baseball caps, keychains, and all other manner of junk, in a desperate attempt to avoid a real job. It dismays me to see it. Regardless, my comment is in no way to dis, but was rather just some constructive criticism... free for the taking - or not.
Matt this Model S or a optioned out RS7?
If you have the cash do the RS7 for the high end power ..after 90 these tesla aren't super fast .. Rs7 is fast all around ... But if your only driving city or are a redlight racer and want to Also save gas then sure do the tesla .I driven one before I'm speaking from experience .Passed 100 the rs7 would walk away ..it's all your call.
My money goes to RS7, would't even think about it.
***** agreed
Isit Fast? this optioned out tesla is the same price as the rs7. but yes i would go RS7 aswell
Rs7 can't do 0-60 in 2.6 seconds with nonperformance tires or 1/4 mile in 10.8 and it doesn't have autopilot.
Work of art!
Matt, as you said "I have to spend a lot of time and energy focusing than if I was actually driving" That is exactly the point of Auto Pilot! (Well at least, one of the benefits) Specifically for people who drive the same exact commute EVERY SINGLE DAY. Often times, they do not pay as much attention. However, with Autopilot, it will encourage them to monitor every little detail to make sure they're safe. It's also beneficial for freeway driving because it can keep its lane well and drive by itself. Seriously cool stuff! Thanks for driving a P90D for us Matt!
Good vid but I don't think I'd be buying one any time soon. That autopilot is less than useless if you can't fully trust it.
Autopilot is very good but people need to understand when it's appropriate to use. Harpin turns at 40mph is not one of those times
And that it is still learning.. every update, is one step closer.. As it gathers all the cars driving around knowledge.
City centers where there is a car every corner, vs the odd one up the snake/other road in the hills will take more time.
With or without autopilot activated, Teslas are literally the safest personal vehicles on the market.
I wonder what will us carguys do when there are only electric cars allowed to drive in the near future.
Go extinct along with the gasoline powered automobiles we know and love today.
We will either move somewhere where petrol is still legal, or we'll continue driving our cars anyway and dare the autopilot cops to catch us.
The future is Dimension W.
Well gut the seats on the tesla to make it even faster because weight reduction
+Isit Fast? I doubt removing the seats would do much at that point.
lol this has to be the best recorded audio of you talking on any one take yet
I absolutely fanboy over Tesla. For how much they've achieved in such a short amount of time is mind boggling. I live in Ohio where the weather is shitty during the winter so I wonder how good/bad it is in that weather. Anyways good video and I'm glad you finally got to review one of these!
Did you have to go to a superchargerstation because Tesla did not provide you a mobile charger? shop.teslamotors.com/products/model-s-mobile-connector-bundle
Or do you only have on-street parking available at home?
I liked your review, and showed where autopilot can not operate. Many people overestimate it due to overenthusiastic and sensational reviews.
I charged it at home on the mobile charger, and there is no supercharger in Malibu or Santa Monica so I had to use a normal slow charger at a shopping center. Not nearly enough supercharger sin LA considering how many Teslas there are
+TheSmokingTire really surprised there isn't a supercharger in that region. That said, if you buy one (rather than just borrow one) you'll get a charging unit installed in your house that'll fill the thing pretty quickly. What is your general commute?
+Tim Austin it would be fine for running around LA. No issues there. But to go anywhere where you can drive it fast around here means a LOT of planning and a LOT of waiting around for slow public chargers.
TheSmokingTire that's a shame for your region, sure.
TheSmokingTire Now I understand. & Indeed with more superchargerstations, going for a fun drive will make that lots easyer.
New ones are popping up south of la apparently supercharge.info/ But that's no use for you I guess
As much as I give credit to Tesla for their electric car achievement it still does not excite me. Yes, I am sure the acceleration would be awesome, but the silence and robotic soul are the killer for me. Other cars with great handling and great fire breathing engines sound exciting even at low speeds. I know it all comes down to a personal preference but it's kind of like who would you rather be dating? A hot super model that likes to scream with an amazing soul... or a cold, silent, robotic, soul less model that can go fast. They both do similar things, but one actually feels alive while the other sits there quietly. I realize each has their strengths and weaknesses. I realize silence can be nice at times. Kudos and recognition to Tesla for making a Ludicrous speed electric car that can blow the doors off most cars in a straight line. It is the future for sure, but I still prefer a screaming, fire breathing, beast of a car or at least some type of hybrid like the 918 or I8 examples. That way you can enjoy having the benefits of both technologies. Matt made an excellent point about the price for entry on this car. For the same price you could buy an amazing fire breathing sports car with better handling, maybe not as fast, but still have money left over for 10 years worth of tires, maintenance, and gas.
Well spoken
I'm not disagreeing with you or anything but that super model analogy is hilarious. Why would I want to date a super model that screams or a "cold" woman that runs fast? Lol, those are some weird ass personality traits.
haha, yeah I guess it's a weird analogy, but after dating lots of women you begin to understand some have great, hot, feisty personalities and some are quiet and as cold as ice ;^) haha... the difficult part is trying to figure out where the happy medium is ;^)
Have you ever driven one of these cars?
yes, I have a couple of friends who own them and I have driven and been a passenger in them a few times. Not the P90D model though, but other then the power with upgraded batteries and motors, the technology of the models are all identical inside. Even the lower models have great instant torque and lots of cool functions. I have driven and been in them enough to know they are great technology and I can appreciate why people want them and like them, but they are just not for me for that kind of money. For me its all about the lack of sound, connection to the driving experience, and lack of soul of the car. That's just my humble opinion based on the era of cars I grew up with and have driven. Call me old school, but it's just my personal opinion. For the money I would much rather have a Porsche Panamera or Cayenne GTS or Turbo and still have money left over for 10 years worth of tires/maintenance and gas.. Different strokes for different folks. It's all personal preference.
Autopilot disclaimer when activating says, "...for use on highways with a center divider... ...It should not be used on other kinds of roads or where the highway has very sharp turns..." Also when its engaged your are supposed to keep your hands on the wheel at all times not like those videos you see on youtube with people waving there hands around. The tech is not fully autonomous yet its meant to be a drivers assistant and is quite nice to use as an extra set of eyes on a long highway road trip
Loved the video been looking forward to this one!
That Russel Brand and Jim Breuer episode was surprisingly a great podcast! Russel Brand was actually really interesting to listen to....never thought I'd ever say that haha
Couldn't agree more about the interior. If they want to compete with Mercedes and Porsche, they have to step up their game big time. A big display is not everything. It's actually very boring in my opinion, it lacks interior craftsmanship.
The interior lacks refinement for sure.
When everything is digital it's great until it "accidentally" kills you. That's why I prefer analog. Unfortunately the auto industry is getting rid of the analog "drivers" cars for computer cars which in my opinion will mean future cars will be more fragile - on purpose.
+Stas G. This comment is all over the place lol
+Jason Ortiz just saying the auto industry is rigged that's all
To be honest I really like the interior. I prefer the clean interior from Tesla over the Mercedes like interiors. They look beautiful but I don't like all the little things like random buttons on the front doors and all those knobs over the centre console. I prefer cleanness.
Tesla autopilot. Anyone laughed at that?
Another thing. Why has my picture/icon changed to a letter "k"?
If you're drunk & sitting shotgun, does the car get the ticket if you send it home on auto pilot?
Lmao unfortunately it won't drive if no one is in the driver seat.
Nice video man. I've been watching that episode of JRE as well. Funny!
"It makes space noises!" haha. Seriously though that Tesla is from a different planet. Incredible car.
No sound = no Joy
Cool tech but boring as cars go.
The Matt Farah laugh is one of my favorite sounds..."a gazillion miles per hour". Also, the autopilot was nerve-wracking and incredible at the same time.
Thumbs up for listening to JRE! Any chance you'll do another episode? Those were great!
how is that auto pilot legal??
Because it's not meant for canyon roads (yet).
It's legal by lack of real regulation. Plus the few rulings there are out there on the subject follow much the same rules as an airplane. Even with Autopilot on, the person controlling the vehicle still has final say over the control of the vehicle and is responsible for any incidents that happen while in control of said vehicle.
Because it essentially a more advanced cruise control.
They have stated and restated that autopilot is intended only for highway use. From onramp to offramp and no more. Its not supposed to be used for roads with bends that sharp
it's to bad they can't make a model for people who don't have that kind of money. I'll take the Rambler!!!!
in 10 years the car he's driving will be worth 30k
...30k for a 2.5 sec 0-60mph, 10.8 1/4 at 122mph, Ill take 2 that sounds sweet.

Gorgeous best car EVER...if I had the money, I would order it in a heart beat!
Love the JRE podcast and Rogans image up there :D
Maybe it'll go faster if Matt shed a few pounds, have you thought of that?
Jon Ultime
I'm sure he's NEVER, EVER thought about his weight!
As for shedding pounds to make 4k pound cars faster???? Even if he became skinning, it will NOT make any difference on a car!
We're not talking about motorcycles here...lol If you actually believe a person that is 250lbs driving this car vs a person 180lbs driving the same car would change the performance numbers in ANY way, you need to go out and drive more to gain some more REAL WORLD experince, because it doesn't change shit! Again, he's not on a fucking bike...
LJ & Son's VLOGS if you think shedding weight on a car in the essence of 80-90lbs doesn’t make a difference, you sir are poorly misinformed. Before I went to the extreme of fully gutting my old Acura TL, I took out just shy of 100lbs and felt a slight difference. Then I took out 600+ and it felt like a totally different car. Just because your own personal butt dyno can’t feel the difference, doesn’t mean you can speak on everyone’s experiences. It makes a difference whether you feel it or not, big or small. It’s common sense lmao. Weight reduction improves a car’s power to weight ratio. Come on dude...
I like the nose
When you hear an F-16 from the ground, the speed of it with the sound it makes is badass. Having ridin in one, with the canopy down and your helmet on, you can't hear the engine at all (equivalent to riding in a battery operated car) and the badass part is total gone. This is what we petro guys live for, amazing speed with the beautiful sound a finely tuned engine makes, that is the SOUL this car will never posses. Petrohead forever ;)
Matt neglects to use the term "driver's car" because on the interstates this thing is phenomenal, just instantly obeys your command. The hell with the damn interior, lol.
