The heat pump does double duty of cooling and heating. The resistive heater does heating and cooling is done by a separate unit, which is why it does it faster but also not as efficient. Heat pumps are just way more efficient
Things better about 2018 vs today’s LR model 3:
Passenger lumbar
Premium sound system has 14 speakers vs todays 13
Steering wheel is superior
Resistive heater performs better in sub freezing temps (albeit costing more energy)
Homelink used to come standard
That’s all I can think of!
Soft touch lower door panels
Grocery hooks in frunk
Frunk mat
Sticker inside drivers side door says manufacture date
Perfect timing, Ive got a 2018 and considering a 2022 so thanks for the comparison!!
I have a 2018 M3P. It’s as beautiful as the day I bought it. I have lifetime free Supercharging and FSD ($6,000). I don’t think I’d change a thing. I love my car. No problems with closing the trunk or front door. That was that particular car. I paid $1,500 extra for white exterior back then.
How do u get free super charging
@@Murphys_Law9 It was a option when buying Tesla cars back in the day. They used it as an insensitive for people to buy electric vehicles. Now that the amount of people with teslas has increased they removed the option.
I am planning to get 2018 Tesla Model 3 long range. This review is good.
same , did you get it ?
@@Zeennnnnnbs I got Chevy Bolt.
@@ranapratapsingh3416 want to get the tesla model 3 2023 with all the rebates.
@@Zeennnnnnbs Good luck
@@ranapratapsingh3416 i know - i live in califronia so the federdal vs state taxes could help men and make up for the depression.
If that is a 2018 Model 3, that steering wheel is leather. Tesla didn't start doing non-leather in the Model 3 until 2019. The reason it's smooth is because leather steering wheels smooth out with age, that's not the original finish. I guess leather buffs would call it a patina. The steering feel could be different because things do wear out with time so it could be a mechanical wear thing, but also quite likely is that the new LFP standard range cars weigh slightly more than the old LR RWD cars by about 200 pounds, so the steering is likely just naturally lighter feeling.
Some other things that are nice about the older cars: the rainbow roof - when you get it wet, the roof turns orange (early-mid 2018 cars have that but started phasing out late 2018), and the door panels (all 4) in the older cars are wrapped in vinyl rather than being hard plastic like the new door panels (late 2019+)
A matte screen protector makes the image a little less sharp. This is because in order to get a matte finish you need imperfections in the surface.
I’ve only have noticed reduced regenerative braking with my LFP M3 in the winter if I haven’t preconditioned the car. And when it’s reduced it’s more often at higher state of charge.
The steering wheels in older 3’s are real leather. The change to fake leather fully happened in 2020 iirc
You can always check the manufacture date on the sticker when the driver side door is open. Right by the tire pressure info.
HOW DARE YOU EXPECT A TESLA OWNER TO USE SUCH ARCHAIC MEASURES!!!! UTTERLY INSANE!!!!
@@jeffreyrecord3108 fr put a screen there instead
I own a 2019 Tesla Model 3 LR RWD just like the loaner you got. The steering wheel is actually *not* vegan leather. That was before Tesla started putting that on the steering wheels. Personally I prefer that because the vegan leather steering wheels are prone to chipping.
You mean peeling.
@@Resist4 Yeah that’s what I meant
On older model 3s if you pull the trunk down by the license plate level it's much easier to close, plus finger prints on the license plate is more tolerable them the paint
Maybe if I quit smoking weed with my dog I could afford a Tesla.Great video boss,very informative.Like your sled way more!
Black seats: I prefer black leather seats (non-perferated). The reason is I've had and seen other cars with fabric seats and they are usually very boring light grey or some crazy random pattern (think 80s/90s Toyota).
With solid black leather, you can't go wrong, visually. Hides dirt. Doesn't distract your eyes. Leather is easy to clean.
White or cream looks dirty easier and is too bright.
These are my opinions.
Yeah the white seats are eye catching and looka great.
Hey Drew, thanks for another great video. My favorite part was “smokin’ weed with dog in the car”. For a few seconds, I thought you were serious. The only way to make piano black look good is frequent cleaning of handprints, dust, and smudges.
I honestly prefer the old defroster line because it’s more unique 😅
We have 3 3s and a Y and they're all different. None have the double pane glass, refresh center console or ryzen chip either. It's neat seeing all the changes throughout the years.
I have a 2018 and actually swapped in the new console and steering wheel because I like them a lot more
The steering wheels back then actually were real leather. That was the one non vegan piece in the old interior if I’m not mistaken. I’ve owned both versions and I agree I like the look and feel of the new vegan wheel a lot better too!
I have a 2020 model 3 with the original design, I've been in a new 2022 model 3 and I've noticed the doors are heavier.
i also have that exact car but in blue. i have zero issues with it, works great for me. still love it so much. will eventually upgrade to a model Y but not for a few more years
New regen options in the settings... You can enable assisted breaking in limited regen scenarios.
I have a 2018 with just over 80k mi. No issues so far and has never been to a service center at all... I have the side camera lag too.
There are optional cup holder and pocket things you can buy that fit between the steering wheel and door that may help a bit.
I just bought a 2018 model 3 performance long range,
38000 miles ❤
Fairly consistent with what I see in my brother's 2018 M3 AWD vs my 2022 M3 LR. He had to call Tesla Service to install the phone wireless charger and new CPU for onboard computer while mine has those pre-installed. But one thing that his car has while mine doesn't is built-in HomeLink (garage opener). It costs $350 to install one now.
Yep same as my 2018, been a really good car have over 100k miles on it now.
I just got a 2018 I love it
@@bdhzhsbs1965still loving it? Thinking of trading in my 2020 Charger RT for one. I think I’m outgrowing the loud hemi lol.
@@smoovecatpack4353holy crap same here. I thought i was the only one. I already have a 2019 hellcat challenger in my garage. But My neighbors and work place have started to hate the hemi It’s straight piped. So it wakes up the whole street In the morning. And my co-workers know when i arrive or leave. Gas as well. Has become a pain. Though I know what i signed up for. But Paying nearly $160 a week for gas. Driving 60 miles there and 60 miles back for work. It’s become a strain. Tesla just offered me A great deal for a 2018 model 3 to the point if i finance (I’ll probably just pay it off.) My monthly will be just $130 so i’;m definitely making the switch this week.
A heat pump is just an “air conditioner” than can run refrigerant in either direction through the loop: one direction of refrigerant flow pushes hot air out one heat exchanger (e.g., into the cabin), and the other direction of refrigerant flow pushes hot air out the other heat exchanger (e.g., out of the car). The “heat pump” Teslas may be a bit slower at heating than the old resistive heating Teslas, because many heat pump systems use what’s called a “reversing valve” to control the direction of refrigerant flow, and that will take a little time to be set to the proper position before the heat exchange process can actually get going.
Newer software has a setting where it will use hydraulic brakes to emulate regen braking, when at a high state of charge. That would be my guess as to why your car slows down at a higher rate of charge and the older car does not.
I just double checked, and I see that software version 2022.2 4.8 has it.
7:51 You can adjust the power steering in the settings for a more sporty feel or a more relaxed feel.
Thank you for your video. This is the first one of your videos I have watched and I found the enormous amount of jump cuts very distracting. Thanks again for the information.
The vehicle year is on the sticker inside the driver door panel (near where they keep tire pressure info)
That’s blasphemy
Teslas are like iphones. Very incremental in upgrades year over year but after a while it builds up and is a valid upgrade. Also the software support is unmatched. And the ecosystem of supercharger’s are like a walled garden similar to apple’s
@@TailosiveEV iphone can use any QI wireless charger
Well I hate iPhones but love Teslas.
@@TailosiveEV ; with the right cable (like a Tesla) an iPhone can use wall socket electricity from around the world for charging. iPhones also use regular internet on standard browsers.
The walled garden part for Tesla and the iPhone is that they both have exclusive operating systems.
@@TailosiveEV did you notice a power or acceleration difference between the 2018 and your 2022 model 3?
Glad they gave you a loaner!! I havent gotten a rental in a while from them
My dad has a 2019 M3 LR Rear-Wheel Drive, and compared to my mom's 2022 MY LR Dual Motor, the Model 3 has a faster, quieter HVAC system, sharper definition on the 3 cameras (trust me its NOT the screen protector or a dirty camera), real leather steering wheel ( which I will always prefer over the "cheap" feeling ones on new Teslas), the option to choose a lower level of regenerative breaking, lighting on all 4 door storage spaces, passenger lumbar support and a bigger frunk with hooks for groceries. With that said, the Model 3 has a slower infotainment system compared to the lightning-fast AMD Ryzen infotainment system of the Model Y, the Model Y (and the entire lineup) has a powered lift gate which our old Model 3 doesn't, our Model 3 doesn't have the Matrix LED headlights, and it has H2.5 for Autopilot. I still love the our old Model 3 despite the differences it has to the Model Y ( I prefer the 3 over the Y because of the sporty feeling). It still gets almost all of the new features in software updates so no need to be upgrading to a new Model 3 in a long time.
thanks your comments fantastic advice.
Is the heat pump really the reason for the much smaller frunk? Why would the heat pump be so much larger than the preexisting A/C system?
Yes. Same for Model S. The extra plumbing takes up space.
new feature in settings allows blending of real breaks when battery is full so it feels the same as regen.
I feel for people with the older intel chip, highly recommend upgrading for this alone
Friction brake while at high state of charge to mimic regen is a setting 😉
The sticker on the driver's door jam tells you the month and year the car is made. Every car has them
I love footwell lighting for night driving
“Too bad because I love smoking weed with my dog”!! 😂
Hey Drew! Were you in line at the In-N-Out at Redding the other day? Thought I saw you.
I'm curious if you noticed any nicks in the interior soft touch door panels near the door cup holders. I have about 4 nicks in my 2018 because of the soft touch panel. So glad Tesla changed it to a hard plastic panel and wish mine was that way.
I wonder if your steering wheel material will start peeling, like the yokes are. I think they are the same material.
I'd bet your car engages the actual brakes as well as regent at high charge states of battery.
How does safety score work, is it just for you to look at or does it report and affect your insurance rate. Cause I don’t really like the idea of my car reporting my driving habits I always thought those insurance plans that make you attach a gps to your car we’re dystopian lol.
I love my 2018 model 3 LR. 45k miles with about 6% battery degradation
Vanilla is the most popular flavor. You and I both!
Another great video dude!
Hi from Brazil .
My 2019 trunk if left open the actuators get hot and almost impossible to close.
Are the wheels a different size? If yours are bigger then the steering might be tighter.
Tires will chnage steering effort. Stickier tires means more effort, and vice versa
I am currently debating on a 2018 3LR w 75k miles, 25k vs 2021 3LR 12k miles 35k. Would love any insight. I plan on just using the car until I can get the new Highlander, but want to see what the cons of the new model will be
I’m in the same boat, what did you end up getting ?
A little wd40 on the door handle latch and it will close quickly again, mine used to do that and it’s what everyone recommended including service, I’m surprised they didn’t do that before giving it to you, unless there is also a latch problem and not just a sticky door handle
Why didn’t you just look at the VIN number to figure out the year of the car?
A brown Model X at 0:36 those are pretty rare.
I am still driving a Long range RWD titled as 2017, it was one of the first (I stood in line on day 1, LOL). I used to drive a 2013 Model S P85+ but traded it in for my Model 3. Moving to Cybertruck in 2024 or whenever it arrives
Caffeine free lifestyle or just don't coffee?
i thought in 2018 they didnt have auto pilot
The older model 3s had real leather steering wheels instead of vegan leather. Vegan leather wheels came in 2019 or 2020
are your arms made of spaghetti noodles? you're complaining about closing your trunk ?
This is why I will never be an influencer. I would say they’re pretty much the same and my video would be done in five seconds.
I just took delivery of M3 earlier this month & had to take in for service appointment regarding driver window misalignment. What exactly is the issue or how did you noticed the mis alignment on yours?
Please don't drive in flip flops.
I went in a 2019 Model 3 and it took 3 minutes from 0 celcius to 19 celcius
I’m not a fan of piano black. I really wish cars just move to matte or other materials
Actually the earlier models 2018-2019 have leather steering wheel then later they changed it for vegan.
i’ve been waiting for this video 😂
Pls stop the trillion cuts, it's horrible
@@TailosiveEV you got it!
My 2022 doesn’t have the change holder in the armrest console. You should know by now Tesla doesn’t change their cars yearly they change quarterly. A person that talks about Teslas like you all the time should know
@@TailosiveEV lol. Well in the video you sounded like you didn’t know 😊
Your videos have great titles but they’re WAYYY too long
Only Tesla.
this review was sorta bad
this is ur typical EV guy..... ur wife must cheat on u
I've never seen leather on a vegetable. What is the best vegetable to skin for this leather? I feel like more veggies will need to die for a seat cover than cows would have. I suppose someone is going to chime in that no veggies are used to make vegan leather. Why don't we just call them vinyl?
I think it’s to describe the feel and texture of the material. Whereas vinyl doesn’t really tell you anything
It’s all marketing, isn’t it?
Lol...first world problems
