In between essential new deliveries we have found time to decorate our premises with bunting. Whilst we remain in lockdown, the Datchet Village greens remain immaculately mown and our War Memorial stands proud in the spring sunshine. We wish you all a very enjoyable VE Day celebration, on this day of all days we celebrate the freedoms which we have all enjoyed, in the knowledge that better days lie ahead.

Over the last few weeks we have been busy working with businesses and individuals to ensure they’re able to keep moving in these difficult times.  Some have needed assistance adapting their ways of working, or to provide new services or products in the current trading circumstances.  WVL were pleased to supply a vehicle to Flowerz florists in Datchet near Windsor.

In the last few weeks they’ve changed the focus of their business from floristry to home delivery of fruit and vegetable packages.  This service is being provided to key workers and those in need within the local area.  Thus helping to support the community and at the same time offering a valuable source of income to the business.

Naomi of Flowerz contacted us via our website over the weekend and by Tuesday had been supplied with a vehicle to suit their new needs.

Naomi commented: “ WVL have been fantastic at organising a short term van rental to enable me to continue providing a local delivery service of fresh fruit and vegetable boxes to priority workers and those in need. Their customer service is outstanding and I appreciate their efforts in such challenging circumstances”

Well done Naomi for offering such a valuable service and thinking outside the box!

Model Y from Tesla

Model Y from Tesla https://wvl.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Tesla-Model-Y.jpg 800 509 Anthony Anthony https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a9c4089fd91833b9d9ac3cd2423e0fcb?s=96&d=mm&r=g

The Tesla Model Y is designed to be the safest vehicle on the road. With its Low Center of Gravity, Impact Protection and Rigid Structure this model provides the ultimate protection for its driver.

When is the Model Y available in the UK?

Tesla said it expects to deliver the performance, long range versions of the Model Y by autumn 2020. The standard version of the Model Y is expected to roll out in the spring of 2021.

 

What the Model Y Offers?
The Model Y can seat up to 7 passengers. Each second row seat folds flat which gives more space and storage for those long trips away with the family or on business trips. There is also an access trunk which makes it really easy for loading and unloading which makes life that little bit easier for everyone.

 

All-Wheel Drive- Dual Motor
The Tesla All-Wheel Drive has not one but two independent electric motors. These two motors control the front and rear wheels. This aids the handling, traction and control of the vehicle. Having the dual motor means that this vehicle has the ability to power in all weather conditions rain, mud and off road making this car ready for anything.

 

Range
The Model Y is fully electric. Whether it’s a short journey or a long journey the Model Y is easy to plug in with the Tesla charging points.

Tesla currently have over 16,000 Supercharges worldwide, with six new locations opening every week so there really is no excuse not to drive Tesla’s latest electric cars.

– The Tesla Model Y can go anywhere with up to 316 miles of range on a single charge
– The Model Y can recharge 158 miles in 15 minutes at Supercharger locations

 

Pricing
UK prices will be revealed closer to launch
The Tesla Model Y will be available in the following price ranges:

  • Long Range, that will be available at around £36,000 estimated (TBA)
  • Performance Range, that will be available at around £46,000 estimated (TBA)

 

Autopilot
The Tesla Y comes with the standard emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, collision warning and much more.

Looking to the future for the Model Y, Tesla would like to see this model capable of offering its passengers the full Self-Driving motion experience and the ability to track you anywhere which is where Tesla stands out from its other competitors, making the impossible possible.

 

Interior

Looking at the interior of the Model Y you are immediately drawn towards the impressive 15 inch Touchscreen Display which gives the passenger a virtual feeling of the surroundings and gives the inside a very futuristic feeling and look.  Everything from the speedometer to climate control is captured on the large display which is something you have to get used to. This is very easy to do with its very self explanatory user interface.

Whilst you are sitting in the car when the vehicle is charging, It is also expected to offer functions like Hulu, Netflix, video games and Youtube apps.

The interior itself is simple and has a minimal feel which offers a large sense of space and freedom to the drive.

The model Y also has the advantage of an all glass roof which gives a massive sense of space and light. It enables you to have more headroom and the ability to see the surroundings very well.

 

The Model Y offers two Specs
