I think this is a testament of how popular Tesla is, that this show would go to these lengths to have Teslas available because they know how popular they are. Normally they charge the manufacturer a lot to be there 😂
I love how you turned the Tesla test drive into an interview when you realized the driver was new to the brand. I’m glad Tesla had some limited showing in Detroit but sure wish they had Tesla knowledgeable employees to really be able to share info. Hopefully next time.
"i love hearing my exhaust"....it's interesting how we've been conditioned to value ICE noise. if we had grown up with ev's and someone suddenly introduced the combustion engine we would think it was the dumbest thing in the world...why not get a steam engine?
I can't wait for the day when you take a walk through the city and hear nothing but wheels rolling. No exhaust noise also not to mention the smell. Oh and no more of those dumb loud AF Hondas with holes in their exhaust going through the neighborhood at 11pm 😑
My street is full of cars driven by people who enjoy their loud exhausts. The noise is deafening to any other sound. There's an industry of folks cutting their exhausts to be louder. Go figure! It will be a while to change that mindset.
@@bazanime definitely do not envy you there 😅 Sorry you gotta deal with that noise. I just have a couple guys that do it a few times a week. Guess I should count myself blessed 😵💫. Yeah, unfortunately that is something that will die slowly. It's almost as if horsepower goes up for every decibel from you exhaust to these people. I won't complain about a bass heavy exhaust from a luxury sports car, just this all treble *reeEEEEEE* is so dang annoying. Put that lawn mower away 😩
I genuinely don't understand why people "love" the sound of their car exhaust. Traffic noise is nothing but an annoyance and I want my car and everyone else's cars to be as quiet as possible.
I totally agree with you and the police were at my neighbors house yesterday because of a noise complaint….she has a Mustang 5.0 with the absurdly noisy exhaust. Even idling it is insanely noisy especially since she is in the medical field and works those crazy hours.
Tesla needs better representation in Michigan. People here tend to think that they know all they need to know Automotively speaking. Driving a Tesla is (as you know and demonstrate) a new experience
6:38 - seeing the Hummer lift up in the front like that from a launch, knowing how heavy that thing is was absolutely hilarious, and 💯% worth the trip of you going there! lol! 😂😂😂😂
Hi Chris, I made it to the final Saturday of the Detroit Auto Show (9/23/23) and rode in the blue Model S. I asked about the drive settings and they were still set to the adjustments you made. What a rocket off of the line! I did not tell my wife how fast it would be so she let out a scream during the launch 😂
About the people working at the show, my understanding is that the show event organiser hire those people. The company I work for sometime participate to show events, so we rented a both but the furniture used inside the both needed to be carried and installed by the employees hired by the show event. You cannot do it yourself.
Thank you for showing us what’s going on at the Detroit auto show, I was very interested in what Tesla would be bringing. Them not showing up at all, and the auto show buying the Tesla cars themselves makes a lot of sense with Tesla never being at an auto show in the US before.
Same here but it has been a number of years possibly 2013 or so when Tesla last exhibited at the Detroit Auto Show. (I mainly went back then to see Teslas lol and now I own one).
If EV owners want to hear exhaust sounds, there are aftermarket products that make real exhaust sounds and are synced to the throttle pedal. Seriously, it's a tailpipe that installs onto the back of the EV and connects to 12 volts and to the CAN buss.
It's interesting that Tesla didn't officially take part in this, but there are Teslas at the show. Hope this gives more people who have never been in one get to see what they're like.
Fantastic timing for Tesla with a strike of the Big 3…Think about it: No one shows up at the Detroit Auto Show to look at ice vehicles only to see Teslas in Detroit :-)
diesel hybrids are still legit as diesel is used for commercial trucks until teslatruck can prove more than pepsi trials... cheers. and i make parts for ice and tesla.. heh

Glad you were there, but seems like a missed opportunity for Tesla. Wish they would send some employees to educate and answer questions. The driver seemed like a nice guy but not going to be able to answer many questions if first time driving the car.
Good job showing the Auto industry in it's current state of decline. I'm a bit surprised that Tesla was a no-show the bastion of ICE vehicle manufacturing show. I suppose it would be like post touchdown celebration taunting as Tesla has pretty much slayed that dragon. I say that as an old car guy who held off even driving an EV until 2021 when I decided to drive a Tesla. The day I test drove the Model Y, I ordered it and in less than 30 days it was in the garage. Like you Chris, there are now 2 Tesla's in the garage with my wife getting a Model 3 SR. We also helped a daughter get a Model 3 SR with the HUGE TAX incentives and other discounts is was under $25K. Why would anyone buy anything else is my question? It comes down to understanding the difference between economical reliable transportation and, toy or status symbol ownership. After having many nice cars in my life, I was definitely ready for the Tesla driving experience. I never for even a second, miss anything about owning and driving an ICE vehicle. A CT is next up and that will likely be my last vehicle purchase.
@@chriswright9096 do you remember the old Elon claims "2018 on Mars manned human landing", and 2026 start of Mars colony and 2036 one million people on Mars with giant glass domes and megacities. And the launch of 1000s of manned SpaceX Starships rockets per year in the 2020s to built the Mars colony. 2023 cannot even launch one single Starship into Orbit 🤣. A bit like Virgin and their "2020 we will have Hotels on the Moon" claims from almost 20 years ago, can barely put a rocket plane in sub orbit.
Not sure if this also exains the short lineup for Tesla - I see many Teslas every day could get a ride in a Tesla today from multiple different people if I wanted to, whereas how many people have ever seen an electric Hummer IRL? If they had FSD demo drives, now that would be very cool.
Our model Y is in collision repair (thank you midwest idiot) so we tried to plan our trip from Dayton to Muncie with our bolt. The are NO CCS chargers between dayton and Munice. I will never buy anyting other than a Tesla for the rest of my days.
Here's why there was no line for the Tesla test drives: 1.4 million people already have Teslas in this country. Many more have already ridden in one. Not true for the other cars.
False claim. This was the “preview” day not open to the general public. Just select media and auto suppliers have exclusive access to the show floor when this video was taken. Additionally, this was right when the show doors opened.
Even though Tesla themselves didn't bring any vehicles, it's still pretty cool that the organizers bought some Teslas to include in the show. Another free advertising for Tesla.
I would be surprised if they actually had the Highland here. If they are not Tesla, they wouldn't have any possibility of actually getting the car and if they were Tesla, they wouldn't want to show the car yet in America, they need to sell the old model first.
@@DirtyTesla I know that Fully charged "offered" Tesla a stand at the Vancouver show (for a price) Tesla said "discount please" They said "sorry, full price" Tesla said "nah... We're fine" and declined. . They don't really need the advertising.
For Cheetah stance you need to wait. For drag mode, it tells you battery conditioning for optimal performance. You dont HAVE to wait, but youll go faster if you do..
I want you guys to think about it, there is an EV test track in a building. Can't do that with ice cars without putting everyone in attendance to sleep. Just saying.
also in Europe motor shows die out, for some years some brands completely skipped the fairs. It's more expensive for them than you think to show up with an impressive stand at a motor show and not worth anymore, everything is taking place in the internet nowadays.
I drove an Hummer in GMC training at Charlotte Motor Speedway in 2022. 0-60 in 3.4 seconds with for men in the vehicle we were over 10K pounds. All 4 wheels break traction and pulls right toward the wall. Very fun.
Very Interesting. Its too bad Tesla did not see the value in promoting their products at this show. I imagine there would have been a long line to try the Cybertruck RC if it had been available
Tesla is not there because this is a pay to play event. The other manufacturers, like GM, are paying money to be there, like at a trade show. Tesla doesn't see value in these events, so they declined to participate. The event organizer, knowing how much grief they would get if they didn't have Tesla vehicles there, decided to get Tesla vehicles at their own expense, and hire drivers at their own expense.
I've never heard of any auto show that did test rides or even test drives. I've also never heard of vehicles being purchased specifically for the purpose of an auto show.
*NOT REAL* (afaik) but can you imagine if it came out that Tesla pulled out of the show because they weren’t allowed to bring the CT because the other makers insisted they wouldn’t show their EVs or something?
Maybe its just me, but given Tesla really doesnt advertise or anything really... I'd really doubt to see them at any such show... they have plenty word-of-mouth oppertunities.
Idea for future video: Some drivers (e.g. me) are impressed with FSDb and use it all the time. Others think it's terrible ("I hate the phantom braking!") and think it's dangerous and a waste of money. Is there this difference because the cars or environments are different or do the different drivers react differently to the same situations? To answer that question, get those two different people in the same car for the same drive, and see how they react.
I feel ya dirty T. Son and i went thinking tesla might just show up as a surprise with the ct and new 3... wa wa waaaaa.would a been a total mike drop if it had been running around cobo and up n down woodward ave. and yes the show just ddnt feel as special as pre covid days. thanks for the report !
I think driving a hummer ev noone owns is a bit more exciting to drive a Tesla who many probably are able to just test drive with one of their friends or maybe they even own one themselfs or at very least you see on roads every single day. I would assume a hummer ev is an insane rarity if you dont go out of your way to find one # :D
8:21 my guess is most people already experienced tesla vehicles considering a lot of auto employees but not really the other brand EVs there which are relatively new. Hummer EV is definitely not that easy to get a test drive
The auto show would have a hole in the lineup if no Tesla cars were available. Smart for them for taking care of including the cars if not the manufacturer.
I went to the show on Sunday and I was really disappointed in the whole show. All the EVs behind barriers couldn’t see them or interact. Tesla was the biggest disappoint nothing new from Tesla here.
I'm not sure if the Detroit auto Show us the same as the one in Toronto but all of the brands are represented by the local dealership. Since Tesla doesn't have dealerships like the other manufacturers they don't represent them in the same way. Also since they have their stores in malls they probably don't see a reason to go to an auto show.
“Love hearing my exhaust “ 😮. Presumably loves hearing his farts too. Missing the brain wiring to link the sound to the pollution (to the Keeling Curve to climate change).
3:20 "I have an E-92 M3, it's a manual...." I'm probably the only one here who even knows what that is let alone owns one. 😄 (Hint: It's an older gen BMW drivers car)
@dirtytesla. Seems like your video was just a smear campaign on the Tesla test ride experience. You’re out to get these test drivers and you know off rip they don’t work for Tesla. This experience wasn’t for Tesla snobs, it was for people who have never been in a Tesla before like myself.
Yeah, that is kind of a weird show for doing Tesla. No employees or representatives to ask important questions. And the people driving the vehicles were not from Tesla or have driven them before. i guess Tesla wants to keep everything under wraps far as information. Probably get better information at a Tesla service center talking to their sales people. Thanks for the video. Take care.
This shows how out of touch Detroit Auto Show is. They hire and pay a guy who knows nothing about Tesla to do an underwhelming job, rather than reach out to the Tesla Owner’s Club of Michigan to get someone who knows the cars inside and out (and likely work for free). 😂
Tesla doesn't pay for advertising... (not yet, at least) And neither do they need to. They know they're no. 1 EV company now, eating Toyota, GM and VW for breakfast. Detroit Auto Show, on the other hand... is "nothing" without Tesla.. so they had to buy the Teslas they needed.

I get to drive one every day.
Chris, it was great to see how considerate and tactful you were with the demo driver.
It's always a good day to talk to someone their first day driving a Tesla. It's getting more rare everyday.

From a liability standpoint, they don't want company employees doing the drives.

Elon probably come to be a driver too! The should be able to answer 99.9% of the questions.😊
👍
No Tesla employees - that is really weird.
This shows how out of touch Detroit Auto Show is. They hire and pay a guy who knows nothing about Tesla to do an underwhelming job, rather than reach out to the Tesla Owner’s Club of Michigan to get someone who knows the cars inside and out (and likely work for free). 😂
That does it Im not going. The EVs behind the glass and Tesla with a crap showing. Not worth it
Cybertruck will rule them all.
Seems really dishonest to represent Tesla with people who aren’t qualified to discuss its features. Feels sketchy IMO.
Tesla doesn't pay for advertising... (not yet, at least)
And neither do they need to.
They know they're no. 1 EV company now, eating Toyota, GM and VW for breakfast.
Detroit Auto Show, on the other hand... is "nothing" without Tesla.. so they had to buy the Teslas they needed.
Just find a tesla owner for rides better than any auto show
