I have probably watched every Model 3 video on TH-cam trying to decide which spec to go with. Ultimately going with the LR, but your video is hands down the best out there when it comes to giving a really accurate feel for what it's like to drive and use the car!
I purchased a new Model 3 Highland in April 2024, and it is the best car I have ever driven. Here in Australia, we get a Federal government rebate of 4.2c per kilometre, which basically pays for the car when it comes to charging at home with the Tesla wall charger on an EV plan at 8c per kwh. I genuinely feel sorry for people filling up their ICE vehicles at $2 per litre, or roughly $120 per tank when it costs me nothing to drive the Tesla. The more people that move to EV's in Australia, the better, and let's face it, you're not going to have a choice within 10 to 15 years. Just do it and stop fighting what you cannot stop.
With current LFP technology, it can't give enough range to make a LR Tesla. LFP is less power dense when compared to it's NMC counterpart in LR. The amount of LFP battery you would need to fit in to make the LR vehicle range, the cars battery bay is not big enough to hold it. Not to mention the added weight because of the decrease in power density to make that same power. If you want a long range LFP model 3 it would be a bigger car, and heavier, and if the size is not increased they would have to reduce interior space to make room for more battery space. In other words, it would not be the same car.
Take with a grain of salt, but a video with a Tesla engineer suggested given the limited range they opted for a battery chemistry that gets the most of said range. With the Long Range, it's battery is not to be charged at full capacity most of the time while also losing a greater amount of capacity compared to the SR's LFP.
by the way: there are the first warranty cases out there where LR customers can choose if they want a LFP battery replacement. Tesla needs to update a few chassis things and the customer is accepting that the acceleariont to 100km/h is around 0.5s slower. It's a matter of time.
Salut, urmaresc. Las totusi si parerea mea: as alege oricand 3 Highland, este o cu totul alta masina. Sau asteapta sa apara Y Juniper, care va fi pe platforma de 3 Highland.
Very good vídeo!! From your research about LFP battery, do you recommend to charge every day at 100% or charge until 80% and just once per week charge 100%?

If you have to charge every day don't charge every day to 100.
@@figueiredoeduardo7252 if your range is enough to charge it to 80 charge it to 80. Also, every 2 weeks or so, if you can live with slightly inaccurate range readout, every 3 to 4, charge it from as low you can to full until it says it charged
En principe J'adore vos vidéos, mais pas le dernier temps. Plus je les vois plus je découvre que vous aimez toutes les voitures. 5% de critique, 95 % d'admiration. C'est pas tellement naturelle comme-ca.

I am glad you have a new video about new tesla model three
These comments about not shutting the AC off - what? Loads of people never use AC. The ignorance! Great vid.

14:2 just tip with the right hand / thumb to exit the roundabout :)
the purpose of these videos should be to have realistic idea of the consumption. So don't shut of the aircon off, nobody does it.
How do you know that no one does it?
beautiful videos, but if you obscure the internal camera the system disables the autopilot or doesn't notice
What are your takes here? Standard (RWD, LFP, 9 speakers,
That’s a speed limit warning and you can mute it by tapping the speed limit sign.
I don't understand why only the SR gets LFP batteries. Do you know any rumors about them adding LFP to their next LR models?
They have less capacity. They would have to redesign the car to fit enough LFP batteries into a long range model.

Oh, I didn't know that.. so we're not there yet in terms of technology. Thank you😄

Hello !
What are you thinking ,really - are you will change your Y on new 3 when if you can or wish ? Or Model Y is Model Y ? ))
Thanks & best regards
i thought about the same question. It depends if you like the higher up of SUV or need the space of SUV. Model 3 handles better than Y
Salutari.Ce ai alege in acest moment intre Y SR si noul 3 SR?

This is basic autopilot or its the pay version?
Why is the car beeping all the time? It would me go crazy!

@ would you suggest 80% 90%?

Tesla tells you to charge the LFP to 100% daily!
@@Viking7771 you don't need to charge daily if the range of the car is enough for a week

Hi, what is the consumption on highway speeds (like 110km/h or similar)? :) Thanks :)
10 musks/100km
08:10 not 5 warnings on one trip. 5 warnings in general
Nice !
* than
Yes, is good but you don't have ac on
AC doesn't take much power anyway, won't make a huge difference. I always drive with AC and heated seats (well unless it's summer).
Nice until i saw the rs4 08:08
Better “than”
I cant watch your videos, I get dizzy, you need a fixed cameras position.
Thanks for feedback 👍🙏
❤❤❤
Please take the camera off your head, It induces motion sickness every time you move your head. Very hard to watch your video
Don't watch so close to the screen😂
