Remmy Evans, a YouTuber, has purchased a stripped-down Tesla Model 3 for $2,000, despite it having been unregistered for at least two years. The car had no body panels, no windshield, no seatbelts, and still showed 212 miles of range on a full charge. Despite this, Evans managed to drive it off-roading, drifting, and even jumping it. He also discovered that CCS fast charging may not be enabled on the stripped car’s software, which would require a software update. Despite avoiding updating the car's software for these reasons, Evans was worried that it would recognize all its missing components and refuse to drive entirely. The video was posted on YouTube by Evans and ends with a reference to an official Tesla service center.
