I'm not taking the worst of the worst. There really is no Right to Repair which will make ownership post-warranty/ESA expensive. That is reality and has very little to do with the majority of Tesla owners being very happy because their vehicles are probably still under warranty or under the...

They can afford to offer excellent customer service (aka bleed money) to 100k customers but not sure at 400-500k customers. Margins are fatter on the S and X and if I was EM, I would definitely not screw these customers over. But there's only so much the car company can do once multiples of...

So far no word on it since it was brought up earlier this year. It's not even being discussed on TeslaMotorClub forum with the fanfare of non-employees getting the model configuration notification. I think it's only in the State of Massachusetts that Tesla had to open up its repair manual but...

With Tesla not providing any updates to the Right to Repair (since it was brought up on various news media/articles earlier this year) or giving some assurance that post-warranty or post-ESA, that TM3 repairs won't cost an arm and a leg just like it does on the Model S and X, although I will not...

For those outside the US, the 60 kWh Leaf may start selling well before Tesla Model 3 does. If the battery does come with LG Chem's TMS... yummy.

Haha. Makes sense know. When I saw your signature I thought you already have a CPO Tesla Model S.

Oh, I was referring to his Model S. I didn't know he still had his Leaf S.

To that someone else, are you not too happy with out of warranty repair costs?

As a current S owner, are you getting free charging on the 3 as well? :) Or will you be using the S to do those 300 mile one way drives? You have no issues at all with your S with your CPO warranty almost expiring?

Anyone thinks this is possible or for the 60 kWh not to be too good damn expensive like the 221st (out of production) LR Model 3? Why Nissan Has A Trick Up Its Sleeve With The New LEAF https://cleantechnica.com/2017/09/16/nissan-trick-sleeve-new-leaf/

Will labor and part costs come down? What about the lack of Right to Repair, how does that help people whose cars no longer have warranty and are required to have Tesla fix each and every issue that may affect driveability at a significant dollar amount?

Majority of repair work to be performed by Tesla at its shop rate. Parts probably have to come from the company too. One is going to be at Tesla's mercy after warranty ends. Could be thousands of dollars to keep the car in drivable condition...

Yeah, I noticed it won the concept award in 2012. Even better with a BEV so I can sell our damn RAV4 Hybrid and stick with two vehicles instead of three. :)

Interesting. If this can go 250 miles, had four doors and could comfortably seat four adults, this may be my next car (which is going to be a BEV). Pay a bit more to avoid Tesla's business model that lacks the Right to Repairs. I don't mind two doors if that is the only constraint (and the...
