Tesla Family Cars

Why choose a Tesla family car?

There are loads of unique features on models like the Tesla Model S, but which of these are the most important for families? Here are three big reasons why a Tesla could be your family’s ideal match:

1. Fully electric and eco-friendly

All Tesla cars being 100% electric means plenty of benefits for UK families. This starts with your bank account, as the running costs for electric cars are often lower than the price of petrol and diesel, which are often on the up. They also tend to need less maintenance due to fewer moving parts.

If you install a home electric car charger, you can also enjoy the convenience of charging your Tesla overnight, meaning you’ll start every day with a charged car that’s ready to go. This can also be more cost-effective and time-saving than frequent visits to a petrol station. 

Long trips away for the whole family are also less stressful and more efficient with an electric family car like a Tesla. Thanks to their extended range of well over 300 miles on a single charge for all models (including the cost-effective Tesla Model 3), you’ll be making fewer stops at public charging stations, meaning kids are less agitated and parents are stress-free. The quiet electric motors can also help, allowing youngsters to have a peaceful nap in the back seat. 

As the years go on, it’s becoming increasingly important for every family to do their part for the planet too. With Tesla cars producing no tailpipe emissions, you’re lowering your carbon footprint and helping to reduce air pollution, while teaching your children about sustainability. It’s a win-win!

1. Packed with safety and tech features

Tesla chiefs pride themselves on developing new technology to include in their cars, ensuring they’re always at the forefront of innovation. These great features help keep your family safe, entertained and connected while on the road, whether it’s a trip around the corner to the grandparent’s house or a 300-mile weekend getaway. 

In terms of safety, Tesla models include accident avoidance features such as automatic emergency braking, forward collision, blind spot collision and lane departure warnings. In the unfortunate event of an accident, there are loads of impact protection features to help keep your family safe, including a reduced rollover risk, an impact-absorbing chassis, crumple zones and advanced airbags.

The minimalist Tesla infotainment screens are kept simple on purpose so that they’re easy to use. There's a range of entertainment options to keep kids busy, such as games, music, videos and internet access. The adults can also enjoy smartphone connectivity so that important apps can be accessed easily.

1. Tesla Supercharger network

While installing a home EV charger is a brilliant decision, the great thing about Tesla is that they also have their own public electric car charging network. Known as the Tesla Supercharger Network, there are over 1,400 Superchargers in more than 140 locations across the UK and Ireland, providing rapid charging for your Tesla model. 

Taking your car on holiday to the continent? Great news, there are over 14,000 Tesla Superchargers across Europe too!

There are also Tesla Destination chargers that are located at certain UK hotels, theme parks, golf clubs and more, which might not be as quick as the Superchargers in replenishing your car’s power, but they’re free to use for Tesla owners as long as you’re a customer of the businesses at that location. So, if you’re on holiday and your hotel has a Destination charger, you can charge for no cost for the duration of your stay.
