Exploring Tesla's Official OEM Accessories: A Comprehensive Review
Updated: Dec 6, 2023
If you're a regular reader of this blog, you know we've spent plenty of time talking about various aftermarket accessories for your Tesla vehicle. But today, we're doing something a little different. We're going to explore the official merchandise from Tesla, covering everything from vehicle accessories to drinkware and even clothing.
Before we dive in, it's essential to note that Tesla isn't sponsoring this post. All the products featured here have been purchased independently to give you an unbiased review. A special thank you to Baseus for sponsoring this post; stick around to learn how their product can help keep your Tesla spotless.
Illuminated Door Sills: A Premium Touch
First on our list are Tesla's Illuminated Door Sills. If you're looking to add a premium touch to your vehicle, these door sills are perfect. They illuminate your vehicle's model name with a sleek white glow every time you open the door. Installation is a breeze, requiring no wiring. With the help of a hairdryer and the included pry tool, simply replace your stock door sills. These come in either silver or black and are priced up to $250. If you're on a budget, don't worry; there's an aftermarket version that's just as good but half the price.
All-Weather Interior Liners: Tesla's Official Floor Mats
You've heard me discuss floor mats before, but this time I got my hands on Tesla's official All-Weather Interior Liners. Crafted by Tesla's Design Studio, these liners are made from thermoplastic elastomer material for ultimate protection. They come with vertical walls for maximum carpet protection and easy cleanup. These liners will cost you $225, but I still recommend the Aftermarket Floor Mats by OERDO, which are half the price and packed with features.
Tesla Roof Racks: For the Adventurers
If you're an outdoor enthusiast or frequent traveler, Tesla's Roof Racks are worth considering. Designed for aerodynamic efficiency, minimal noise, and negligible impact on range, these racks are excellent for mounting various attachments. They come with a hefty $400 price tag, but there are cheaper aftermarket alternatives that perform just as well.
Pet Liner: Comfort for Your Four-Legged Friends
Tesla also offers a Pet Liner for its Model S/3/Y vehicles. This liner is made from a breathable quilted fleece material, offering maximum comfort for your pets. At $145, it may seem steep, but it's an excellent investment for pet owners. There are also less expensive aftermarket versions available.
Baseus A3 Lite Car Vacuum Cleaner: Keeping Your Tesla Clean
Speaking of pets and potential messes, let's talk about Baseus, our post-sponsor. The Baseus A3 Lite Car Vacuum cleaner is an award-winning, minimalist, and easy-to-use product that offers powerful suction capabilities. With one charge, you can use it up to 30 minutes, making it perfect for quick clean-ups.
CCS Combo 1 Adapter: Expanding Your Charging Network
Another useful accessory is the official Tesla CCS Combo 1 Adapter, priced at $175. This adapter allows you to charge your Tesla at non-Tesla charging stations, giving you more flexibility while on the road. There are also cheaper aftermarket options available.
Tesla Sipping Glasses: Drink in Style
If you're looking to unwind with a drink, Tesla's Sipping Glasses are for you. These glasses are uniquely designed and make a fantastic addition to your home bar.
Chill Pullover Hoodie: Cozy and Stylish
Last but not least is the Tesla-branded Chill Pullover Hoodie. It's made from a blend of cotton and recycled polyester, offering comfort in any season. Priced at $70, it might be a bit on the expensive side, but it's undoubtedly a quality product.
Final Thoughts
Tesla's official accessories do come with a higher price tag, but they offer peace of mind and high quality. That said, the market for aftermarket Tesla accessories is rich with options that provide excellent value for money. What about you? Do you prefer official Tesla merchandise or are aftermarket accessories more your style?
