From my experience Standard mode on the suspension feels like the 18-23 Model 3, while Sport is more stiff feeling. I believe the non-Performance models are softer than the Performance 3 Standard setting.

Assuming folks could put the CEO's politics aside, this is a good refresh for the Model Y.
Nice, a 480 kW charger in Biervliet in the Netherlands Allows to charge two at 480 kW, so not a split system. Confirmed that Porsche sustains 320 kW and Lotus 350 kW at that charger. But the true target is actually heavy goods vehicles. And I just noticed that in Zelzate in Belgium they now also have 600 kW chargers. Awesome to see the next generation being rolled out. Quicker than I can walk to the toilet and get a fresh coffee

Quicker than I can walk to the toilet and get a fresh coffee I want buy EV. My factory has solar panels on its roof and in a place like Cilicia I use electricity completely free and it's increasing. I already have 3 trucks and a V6 vehicle. What can I take to and from work
That is Turkey in Asia right? I don't know which global versions of cars you get in your area, nor what the state of the roads are in your area for the type of car. But there are so many EVs available now. And when you use electricity completely free, it would be smart to drive an EV.
Why not post a few cars that you like, and I'm sure the group here can give some pointers to look out for!
Zeekr 7GT - I like the look of that. And if it really starts at just €50K that would be awesome.

Both Europe and Asia. I can buy European cars. European brands such as Fiat, Renault, Peugeot, Citroen and Opel are sold in Turkey rather than Asian ones. At the same time, Türkiye is a country with the European E-Road Highway system. In other words, in terms of transportation and trade, it is considered to be in Europe, not Asia.
Ok, so what do you fancy then? As your question is too wide open as you can get anything from a Fiat 500 to a Lucid Air Sapphire
That is a huge spread and lots of very different vehicles.That does look nice, and those specs are impressive.Zeekr 7GT - I like the look of that. And if it really starts at just €50K that would be awesome.

We won’t see those here in the US, nor will we see something comparable from a US automaker any time soon ;(
Unlikely to see anything in the US that isn’t made there for the next little while!
Yea, was also reading that VW is planning to release a 20k ID.1 in 2 years. Good for you guys to get these kind of options.
Meanwhile in the US we’re probably going to get a couple More $100k+ SUVs/trucks in the next couple years… sigh
Well no point in making cars for the US market anymore. The import costs are too hard to predict for the manufacturers at the moment.
But over here we are free to choose a lot more options. Something for everyone out there.
Yea, well, let’s let the dust settle and see what will really happen, but that’s also getting into topics we should not further discuss here.
Interesting times…
That’s one word for it! Scary being another!
Typical Citroën, oops DS Automobiles, it is a bit out there. At moments, I really like the look of this, and at other times I'm like damn that is ugly. The DS N8 saloon.

Most definitely. It will be interesting to see how a certain brand sales figures pan out globally this year. And how policy will change.
Various news articles showing Tesla numbers are massively down in Europe in 2025. A 60% drop in Germany compared to Jan 2024.
Can hardly be surprised when their CEO says some of the political stuff he has.
I was never interested in Tesla because of their cars. But I’d certainly not consider one if they made something I liked these days.

Yup, been saying this for a while. I don't think the US fully appreciates how this is being viewed internationally. In the Polestar groups it is very noticeable as well, I'm not exaggerating when I say an influx is noticeable.
He's been saying it for a long time, those who were listening have been reporting this. It is quite unacceptable. But now with the new orange faced president, the saying is changing into doing. Doing at home, and interfering in UK and EU politics when using his platform. And his behaviour is having an impact on Tesla internationally, and also on owner/user/potential user sentiment. And not just with Tesla, but also other ventures like Starlink.
I never did, but was impressed by the 3 Highland edition, and like the Y Juniper as well. But ahem, no thanks. I'd rather have a Chinese Zeekr 7X than a Model Y. And it still has a binnacle 😍

Zeekr is on a roll, this is what the VW ID Buzz should have been in my opinion. Technology wise at least.
The EV market is becoming a lot more competitive and January showed a boost in registrations across Europe apparently. Tesla are supposedly putting their prices up and that is before retaliatory tariffs are brought in which may further affect their sales. I’m seeing a lot more BYD’s and Mercedes EV’s on my commute. I’ve grown to like the newer model 3 Tesla but when my time comes to get an EV, I think there will be a very competitive range of choice. I also don’t fancy contributing to Elon’s ego with my money lol.
