By William Goodwin FNP As a new owner of a 2016 Tesla Model S 90D for about 6 months now, I have fine tuned a few things that have really improved my driving experience and efficiency. I want to share with new Tesla owners or anyone else who might be interested. … [continued]
And launch of long-term review.
I recently had our Polish Tesla Shuttle Model S for a few days (it normally lives in Cracow). I didn’t expect I’d experience many new things in the car and thought I wouldn’t have anything to write about, but I was wrong.
Tesla has unlocked free Supercharging for its customers in the vicinity of the California wildfires this week to make it that much easier for Tesla owners to stay charged and safe.
Road trips are a make or break factor for mass adoption of electric vehicles in the US. Unlike much of Europe and many other parts of the world, the US does not have a train system that connects most cities in the country (Amtrak in the Northeast being an exception). As such, most Americans either fly or rely on their cars when they go on vacation to Disneyland or Disney World, to visit relatives a few states away, or to take their child to college hundreds of miles away.
Time for the long drive home. In Part 1 of this 3 part series, I shared in detail our recent road trip from our Northern California home to our hotel in Redlands, California. In Part 2, this piece, I continue the story with stop-by-stop details of our more event-filled trip back home.

Our local Tesla Shuttle arm in Poland has been operating for over a year. One of our co-founders, Tomek Gać, has also had a Nissan LEAF for years and he recently test drove the new Nissan LEAF and the Jaguar I-PACE. We decided to have a long chat about our experiences with the Tesla Model S, some of our experiences with Tesla Shuttle (which is now in operation in Europe and the USA), how the new Nissan LEAF & Jaguar I-PACE compare to Tesla vehicles, and how adequate they may be for “average people” — not just EV fanatics.
The first stop they made after the border was a small hotel. They were planning a short biological break and something to drink but then ran into a group of … American tourists.
Here we come with the final stage of our CleanTechnica Tesla Shuttle Adventure. Our previous entries attracted a lot of attention in the countries we visited and the photo of the Polish tourist in Macedonia was a Twitter hit. We also received emails from concerned EV enthusiasts from Hungary, who were sorry to hear about our difficulties in Debrecen.
