Muy informativo, Lorena. Your costs are similar to what I had to pay with my Model 3, except for two things. First, I had to replace my tires. Second, my PCS started to fail, and THAT was a major expense that I still maintain Tesla should've covered under the battery warranty. Well… that's all in the past now. I'll see how my new EV holds up. I can tell you that so far, after 6,291 miles, I've paid $40,689 to purchase it and equip it with several accessories (floor mats, V2L adapter, J3400 adapter, window tinting, ceramic coating, PPF, etc.). I hope to add a tow hitch next year, which will likely cost another thousand. One thing I can report is that changing its cabin filter is much, MUCH easier than it was in either my Nissan LEAF or my Model 3. A cinch! Happy driving!
Having coolant just disappear isn't normal. It's a closed system. it shouldn't just go away. Hopefully it's not going into your motor and causing it to fail after warranty. Perhaps it just seeps past a clam or fitting so slowly that it doesn't even result in a drip under the vehicle? I'd probably remove the front and rear lower panels, drive around a while and park it somewhere, look for any drips.
What's the range and battery degredation on the 2018 and 2019 model 3s? I think that's typical top of the list for people wanting to know how a EV holds up long term.
Unless you tow a lot, or live in the boondocks in the middle of nowhere, NEVER, EVER buy another ICE vehicle again. Just look up the Supercharger map by searching for "Tesla find us" and you'll see how widespread the network is, even in remote areas. And it keeps constantly exanding.
By no maintenance, you mean you haven't changed the oil or the break pads in the last 5 years? Also don't you think the higher cost of insurance would be set off by the gas savings? My insurance isn't so bad I pay 500 for 6 months for a house and two cars. One Tesla one gas. To be fair in cold weather regions you do should lubricate the breaks on a Tesla since you use it so little. But you don't have to do pads or rotors pretty much ever.
Just like with everything else in life, nothing is black and white. There are pros and cons with both types of vehicles. You just got to look at the big picture. 😊 Is a little scary and different at first. You'll forget to charge it a couple times, and it takes time to get used to the regenerative breaking but I'm a month or so you'll love it. I don't see a reason to ever go back to an international combustion engine car.
My Tesla’s tires seem unlikely to last more than 25K miles. How about you guys? I have a 2019 SR+. At 3550 lbs it’s not that heavy. Mostly slow around town driving. Wtf?
Elon is the opposite of fascist and by attacking others for their choice in vehicle purely because you dislike the CEO proves you are the true fascist.
Clicked to see the wave and stayed for the cars 😁

Model 3 owner here. And only had to change the air filters. tires for 800(all 4). Firestone.
60k miles
I've been waiting for this video!!
I love this EV channel, got to leave like for the Dog 🐶
Thanks for this video!
Thank you for the annual update! Running costs remain impressively low, wow! 😎

Could you please add battery state of health and average efficiency for each year? Thanks for update
Thank you! We are planning to do a battery state of health video separately in the fall.
Hi, can you tell me what is battery range 100% charger of 2021 Tesla model 3 after 3 years, please 😢
upvoted!!!
Thanks!!

Do you recommend a used Tesla for a 2nd car?
100000% as long as you can charge at home or work

I would just keep my 5 years old Toyota. I haven’t had a single problem and gone to a dealer only once for a recall.
This is an honest reviewer. Tesla has very poor quality.
What about the inflated insurance costs evs have vs a Toyota Camry? Or the higher repair costs? Charging any supercharger is more expensive than gas

They’re so high was going to finance mine insurance was 2k a month had to pay cash for it they’re really cheap rn tho especially 2017 m3

Low maintenance, low to run.
Buying a Tesla mans supporting Elon's fascism. Garbage vehicles from a garbage human
Elon is the opposite of fascist and by attacking others for their choice in vehicle purely because you dislike the CEO proves you are the true fascist.
