Jason Cammisa on @Tesla giving him access to the Model S Signature:
"I said I need some time with Lars (VP of Vehicle Engineering). And they said: "we'll do one better. Let's get Lars and Franz and we'll send 45 minutes together." It ended up being 3 hours; These are the coolest guys you'll meet. They are total car, data and engineering nerds."

@JasonCammisa That's why you wanted all those cars?? Thanks for the awesome history class. Always appreciate your work. Model S 4ever https://t.co/7RPwC3Vbbl
Tesla has released a new tool for businesses that are looking to purchase their own White-Labeled Superchargers for their customers.
The price for 1 V4 Cabinet, and 4 500 kW Posts with shipping is $250,000 (at $55K per stall). You can order up to 24, or a custom amount.
Tesla will charge an all-inclusive $0.10/kWh fee afterwards which includes:
• Maintenance Package
• Trip planning for Tesla owners
• Credit card processing
• Network Operation, Remote Diagnostics, Driver Support
• Management Software & Revenue Remittance
• Roaming with Mobility Service Providers (MSPs)
Basically you own the Hardware, Tesla manages everything else.
I really do think the Tesla Model Y RWD is a very underrated value for the money in both the U.S. and Canada. Currently in the US, you can get one with 0% APR financing. In Canada, it’s eligible for the $5,000 EVAP incentive.
You have to look at this vehicle through the eyes of a first-time EV buyer with no previous Tesla experience. When you start compiling what’s still included and the overall experience that this car still delivers, it’s really hard to beat.
The important aspects of a Model Y are still intact: 321 miles of range, FSD works just the same, incredible display and UI, best-in-class safety, etc.
BREAKING: @Tesla has the Model Y RWD (formerly Model Y Standard) on display for the first time in Canada at the Canadian International AutoShow in Toronto 🇨🇦
