The opinion of the editorial staff on the electric sedan
Our verdict after testing the Tesla Model S :
“Even before the Porsche Taycan was marketed, the Tesla Model S significantly improved its performance while significantly reducing its price/equipment ratio. The American also benefits from the largest fast charging network in the world and remains the model with the most advanced connectivity.
WE love :
- Unrivaled range and charging network
- Space on board and spacious trunk
- Full equipment and free Superchargers
- Blazing Performance and Cutting-Edge Connectivity
We love less :
- Autopilot too expensive and restricted in Europe
- Apple Car Play and Android Auto not available
- Still not reading speed signs
- Turning radius too large

The editorial opinion on the electric SUV

WE love :
- Stunning Performance
- Driving comfort
- Zero pollution
- Interior space/boxes
We love less :
- Look fade
- Slow butterfly doors
- “Classic” charging time

The editorial opinion on the electric SUV
Our verdict after testing the Tesla Model Y :
“Unsurprisingly, we find the whole universe (and design) of the Model 3, with a substantial surplus of trunk volume. Too bad the “Y” makes it pay so much. Fortunately, he retains his excellent overall performances.”
WE love :
- Habitability/boxes
- Performance/behaviour
- Consumptions
- Screen responsiveness
We love less :
- Price difference with the Model 3
- Ergonomics
- Turning diameter

Tesla (electric) available in 2023
The American manufacturer dedicated to 100% electric technology will not welcome a 5th model during the next year. However, aware of the interest of making its range a bit more accessible, Tesla is currently working on the development of a more compact and less expensive platform. The goal would be to give a little brother to the Model 3 and Model Y, currently displayed around 50,000 euros at entry level. The novelty of 2023 should reside in the expected restyling of the Model 3 after 4 years of career.
