Hi All, I have what I hope is a quick question for you regarding wheels for my 22 Model 3 Performance. I’m looking to purchase some wheels for winter use. I was looking at the Fast Wheels EV01’s and just wanted to confirm the right part number. Are these the correct part numbers for the Black...

Model Y was one of six four wheel drive EVs in a Finnish magazine's traditional winter test. It had the best range and the fastest charging as expected, but lost the test due to poor heater, poor steering, poor suspension, poor cruise control and lack of regen adjustment. It also had problems...

During the winter months my power company's usage plan has two off-peak windows, 9pm-5am and 9am-5pm. Weird, I know. I may be missing something, but is it possible to tell the car its ok to charge in either of those windows? I've set the 'off peak ends at' to 5am, but it would be nice for it...

Hello. I want to purchase a new 2022 tesla model 3 performance or model 3 long range with acceleration boost. I live in Ontario Canada. I will purchase winter wheels for it. I'm worried about the wheel size of the performance and that it is lowered. Is this a problem in the winter? I'm a...

Is there anyone with a model 3 with a heat pump who can weigh in on how it benefits energy consumption during the winter relative to an older model 3 without a heat pump?

Does anyone know if the 2012-2020 19" winter wheel package from Tesla will fit the refresh? Are there any other options out there? Thanks.

OMG Michigan roads!!! So, Here I am loving my Model 3 Performance AWD. So far 2654 miles and trying to get through my first Michigan winter. I am driving a Cadillac AWD on all the terrible days (not a bad beater car), and I long for driving the Tesla every chance I get with mild, but clear...

We had our first snowfall accumulation (ok, second) but first of the true winter last week. Of course the roads get covered in layers of salt and brine. I understand why, but it left my 3 week old Model 3 looking dirty and while I’ve never been neurotic about cleanliness on my vehicles, it’s a...

I am sure I am going to get some hate for posting this just as summer is beginning but does anyone have any recommends for winter tires on a Tesla?. I was looking at the Nokian’s as I have heard good things. Thoughts?

We all know that that Model 3 does not have a dedicated battery heater to condition the pack, and that it uses waste heat generated from charging and the motor. My question is.. How do you know if the battery is preconditioning or preheating? I know theres the little battery icon on the app...

Hello everyone, I know this has been debated back and forth about whether or not the Model 3 needs rust proofing or not but I had a horrible experience witht he first car I bought 13 years ago and I feel like I should be proactive. I would love to do it myself using the other thread from user...

Summer is coming to an end and Winter will be here before you know it! Being that we're located in New England there has already been a large number of inquiries for Winter wheel and tires. This is especially a concern for all the RWD customers. For RWD Model S snow tires were pretty much a...

I am probably just planting a seed here. Ground clearance is 5.5". Where I live there are a few days to a couple weeks a year where weather and the County plows would leave me scraping. Thinking about air shocks to get another inch or two on demand. Possible? Complications? Just drive the damn Jeep?
