Respect to Caco soldiering on doing the review! Guy's a machine, get well soon, Sir!

Nice review brother. You’ve opened my eyes to Tesla’s limitations in the Philippines. While Tesla is great here in the US and until Tesla integrates their cars in the Philippines, it wouldn’t be practical really for Filipinos to use it. A lot of the features are really useful for the Philippines ie GPS, self driving, Philippine apps, supercharging network, service centers etc.. again until Tesla establishes their support in the country it won’t be used at its full potential. I wish you could add more context as to why that is and if government has to do something about it or if Tesla just refuse to provide to our beloved country.

The wipers can also be activated by pressing the button at the tip of the left stalk.This should also bring up the menu that’ll allow for wiper speed selection. Long pressing the same button also does a windshield wash (spray) and wipe. Good review overall!

As for closing the charger port cover: you can either tap it gently, or leave it as is and it’ll close automatically.

I suspect when Tesla comes to the Philippines officially, we will have no issues with the apps, they sell Chinese-made Tesla's in the UK and other parts of Europe that have the correct apps for their country.

Agree. When Tesla officially markets their cars here, it will be configured for the PH market will all the niceties and standards that Philippine-spec cars sold here all have. It's just a matter of when. Also, Tesla absolutely has to populate their Supercharger network here to make it all work.

I'll buy a Model 3 once Tesla officially sells the car in the Philippines.

Finally! Caco’s normal voice! Just imagine sounding like somebody from sesame street for years!

That’s my car here in the US. We called it MYP. Fun to drive. Driving my MYP for almost two years now. I’m planning to buy MX and ship there in PI.

Caco, that is not an “infotainment screen” - that is actually a computer tablet. Once you’ve personalized the seat position, side mirrors, etc., in the settings, you won’t have to bother tapping onto the tablet while driving. Also, almost all the controls are accessible by voice command. Opening/Closing the frunk, trunk, charging port, etc., can now be controlled by your Apple Watch. Charging. Home charging is the main solution. You only really need Supercharging stations if you’re on long road trips. Like LA to SanFo/Vegas. It is a fun car to drive! Not going back to ICE.

Maybe if it was a different EV car but if you get a Tesla then I'm sure you'll change your mind. My question is , did you ever own a Tesla ( or any EV)? Because if you didn't own an EV then it's just your opinion without any comparison. I will never go back to an ICE/hybrid car ever.

Feel better soon, Caco!

Got ours 4 days ago and it is amazing! More than enough space for a family of 5 with more space to spare for 2 more passengers and luggage. This is going to be great for philippine traffic, its efficient and not burning fuel up! :)

Great review! It's nice that Tesla has reached the PH shores although via a 3rd-party company. One thing to note - there's a proper way to close the frunk and not the typical way of closing hoods of ICE cars. Tesla has an aluminum hood and would be bend out of shape if continued to be closed that way.

You can turn on your wipers by using the stalk on your steering wheel. Duh!

oh my Tesla being reviewed by Caco oh wow! 2024 will be great!🎉

The infotainment apps problem is certainly a drawback, especially knowing the potential it has if we have the same app access as the US ones.

get well soon, sir caco!

You can use the wiper button on the left stalk then left scroll for the wiper settings you preferred thanks.

2023 - Model Y is the best-selling car. Any car, including internal combustion engines. Yes, including Corollas and RAV4s.

get well soon sir Caco

Perfect and smooth driving

Haven't seen a review videos of Van vehicles from Sir Caco's AutoDeal channel. Is there any? or can you have one?

0:30 no numbers yet but the Model Y predicted to be the best selling car model in the world this year 2023.

20:20 yes. like the latest Prius, these EVs are for short people. why? for better drag coefficient/range in highways. it can be said that the range killer for EVs vs ICE cars is wind resistance.

possible of EV fast chargers all places in Philippines especially in malls .. planning the routes if attempting long rides then buy the E car that range over 300km

Does the Tesla app have full functionality on Android phones? Didn't work on 2 Smasung phones and 1 Vivo phone

You can connect to your phone's portable hotspot so that you can use a lot of its features.. Is this an official release or part of the grey market? I'm guessing the latter since the premium connectivity was never discussed which is a Tesla-only offering

There is a button on the left stalk to turn on wipers ;)

Tesla Model Y is the best selling car for 2023 beating the Toyota Corolla. Hope PHI to accelerate more support to EVs so that filipinos can enjoy the benefits of EVs.

Now best selling car in the world, not just EV

You missed it. You can manually press to activate the wipers by pressing the button on top of the left stalk.

Great review! Personally, I think the Y is a beautiful car design! I have sat in one and was blown away by the comfort! Unfortunately for me, not sure I could figure out everything involved in owning and driving one.

Get well soon papi!

There are external devices that provide Apple Carplay or Android Auto (and hopefully mobile connectivity) capability for more functionality. I just ordered a dashboard screen for that

The charging ports are for an AC charger which will accept a level 1 and level 2 GB/T charger. The other one is a DC GB/T charging port. There are charging stations, specifically that of Shell where the attendants will not allow you to use your adapter, since they use a CCS2 for DC charging or a type 2 for level 2 charging. But still an excellent review. I was looking for a DC GB/T adapter but it costs around 1,300 USD in eBay. Guess a level 2, 22 KWH charger will do in malls., or the wall charger installed at home will be enough.

Does it have a SIM card for mobile connectivity?

I remember seeing it on another youtube video where it travels tru a traffic and got behind a jeepney pack full of students hanging behind it. The sensors detected the students as pedestrians crossing the road as seen in its infotainment display.

Is the autopilot feature enabled or can it even be enabled here?

To answer your question.. I think owning a TESLA far outweighs the limitations of the infotainment limitations of a “China-spec” model. If I could afford the Model Y… I can find myself adjusting. Although, this review was very helpful for buyers considering a shift to full EV cars. Happy New Year!

Hey Buddy that's a pretty good review. If possible down the road...update the comments about YOUR Tesla. Curious how it handles any flooding there. Example: Able to navigate with no noticeable issues with water height of 8 inches as an example; or you had a friend who purchased a Tesla and it is not functional anymore due to central control head unit not operable? or maybe like If you have to take the Tesla in for maintenance is there a dedicated Tesla service or certified shop there to work on it? Or any rebates or tax credits in the Philippines there as there was here in the United States? How about if the Tesla Breakdown and it has to be towed to a auto-shop, do you have a local transport that has the ability to put it on the truck bed so that ALL the wheels are off the ground? Never drove a Telsa..but I am curious about what peoples experiences are and not some generic Tesla commercial. But you hit it on the mark at 23:15 and so for you? Since you are one of the few that has a Tesla. Did YOU have a charging station or should I say besides a level 1 charger installed in your home for your Tesla? I see you drove it out in the country, have you driven your Tesla in a really urban and crowded environment like in the middle of Manila in the middle of the day? Again..just curious, what people encounter in a different country besides the USA. Thank you.

1. Buy us tesla so that you can use all the apps 2. Buy portable wireless air pump. No need extra tire. 3. 3rd seat can fit 6.5 height. 4. Php 11.84 x 75kwtt = Php 886.5 for 100% 300 miles 5. Buy Tesla wall charger. It takes 3 hours from 0% to 100%. You can charge everyday 100% but use 10% so that 90% left. Hindi yan masisira yun battery 🔋. Your country has 220 volt no problem. Don’t go below 20% battery 🪫 6. Auto open & close charging port no need manually. 7. Tire 🛞 you can put all 255 R 19 so that your performance will increase miles range. 8. It’s easy to drive user friendly. I drove the car in just 3 seconds super easy.👍😊 My cars 2015, 2017, 2018, 2023 all has free unlimited supercharge & premium connectivity for life. I drove 200 miles a day & supercharge at tesla twice 100%

We need usable apps, or apple/google compatibility

from other sources the cheapest model y is 4.6M and the performance is over 5M

There alot of function you haven't mentioned. With phone key there options you can put security on the car aswell a passcode everytime you drive the car and balley mode just incase someone borrow your car and want to give them limited access. And the charger lid just leave it. And it automatically closed in a few second after you charge

I love that it's always kpop easter eggs on the infotainment. Rainbow by Twice.

I think the opening vid is in Sungay in Batangas going to Tagaytay.. You know your car has power when you can easily pass that road going up to Tagaytay.. :)

I love my Tesla model y here in Canada

Are Teslas in the Philippines official releases by Tesla or are they grey imports? You said you have no access to the app, but at the same time I saw there is no cell signal. So I"m thinking maybe app access is not available at all because there is no SIM configured.

Love my ‘23 Y. Good review. Is it worth getting it in the Philippines NO, unless you just want to get a unique EV brand like a Tesla. City driving would be fine. But without that charging infrastructure you’ll be missing out a lot to which this car was designed for. The model difference between a standard and performance is physically cometic. You can pay for the boost update on the standard. The OTA software updates/upgrades are gold standard. However the flagships Plaid are a different ball game altogether. Let’s not forget they cost a lot have it service in an accident and insurance. Often times you’ll see a minor crash and they will deemed this totaled. They are built differently from ICE cars.

is tesla have a charging infrasstructure in philippines

For the year 2023, it is the most sold car model in the world, not just EV but even beating Toyota Corolla, maybe keep the in mind.

Since Caco is sick, couldn't Jack do the review instead? Just a thought 😂. The infotainment app dilemma could have a work around if you know where to look. There are many Tesla tinkers in the web today that have reprogrammed the infotainment how they want it to be, albeit you cannot update it for future firmwares. However, I can't say for sure since the Infotainment that were tinkered were models produced from the Fremont, CA and Austin, TX.

Hopefully there is a law that imposes mandatory home charging for buyers of plug in EVs in the Philippines. Hindi pwedeng wala.

Sir Caco please next review nyo po bago matapos ang taon ay tesla model s performance 😊🥰.

Caco needs to research more on Tesla. When they officially come to shore, I am curious if they could connect to the newly developed mobile Starlink for cars. One feature from Tesla cars that seem not available to other manufacturers is the Sentry mode. Great protection against burglars and envious key scratchers. But the model that is actually made for bad Philippine roads is the Cybertruck. Now, that is my dream car.

3 additional ways to shut the Charging Port (AKA B - TT hole) A) Voice command say Shut B- TT Hole B) Gently push Port Cover C) On your Phone go to your phone Tesla Apps, Control, Charge port

Question: Is a Tesla still worth getting in Philippines? For my personal opinion about that is I would wait for Tesla cars that are spec out for the Philippine market - specifically. I will really go excited if I hear a Tesla model S and again a Phillippine spec-ed.

Most people trashing in the comments are the ones not familiar with the brand / company. Compared to ones correcting this autodeal guy: wiper button, glove box, charger port, etc, are the ones who have used and love using Tesla

Last year, it was the best selling vehicle in the world! Surpassing the Corolla and Rav 4.

Problem with Philippines is that anything new is overpriced and heavily taxed to the point only super rich people can afford it. It just doesn’t make sense as minimum wage is what 600 peso per day but a Kenny Rodger’s burger costs 250 peso. Vs in the USA a burger still costs $5 but people make $20 an hour. In the USA tvs, ps5, gaming laptops and IPhones sell for 1/2 cost. So what’s happening? It’s hard enough that the wage is so low. But to over price everything seems unbelievable 😮
