Be interesting to see a draggy race between 2019 MP3, 2022 MP3 and the new 2024 MP3......I haven't seen this video released yet on TH-cam 💯🙏🙏🙏🙏😁
I was on the queen mary 2 when this was recorded, I looked out at the dock and saw the giga amount of telsas
Wow congrats! I'm testing driving the new M3P tomorrow. I have the old one and will be upgrading in a few months. Looking forward to trying the new seats and adaptive suspension!
Hey me too, Manchester by any chance? 😅
@@mra9085 no, I'm in the south east 👍🏻
@@chrisbuer7980how did it compare?
@@atreidesN it was a 10 minute test drive in a thunderstorm so hard to say on the performance side of things. It didn't feel massively different to my 2021 M3P but I've got a 24hr test drive of it again tomorrow.
The seats were a LOT better. Much more support! Quieter inside as well and the suspension felt a lot nicer in standard mode and in sport, similar to the ride in my M3P.
I've ordered one, hopefully will get it at the end of July / early August.
I drove the MYP for the first time today while my RWD MY was in getting a creak fixed. Nothing can prepare you for how insanely fast these things are
Congrats, Richard! Enjoy!!
Model 3 Performance vs Ioniq 5N @ carwow. 😁
It would be interesting to see how much UK vs US version.
@@Areku06 I'm really intrigued to see the Dragy results honestly!
From the looks of it, the 460hp Highland Performance should outperform the old Panasonic 510hp Performance (US built cars in the UK) to the 1/4 mile. Obviously the new US Highland Performance is totally different, but it seems Tesla is still improving the performance for us even with the drop in horsepower.
Tesla are absolutely ripping us off here in the UK.
The Model 3 Performance here in the UK is £59,990. In the US it’s £34,000 ($42,490).
What the clucking bell is going on…?
Worth a watch
@@NotJanine777 It's $54,000 in the US without the tax credit. Tax credit isn't Tesla giving it, it's the US government.
I LOVE that front end!
Best and most reliable model 3 performance 2024 review until now. Thank you. Waiting for your next videos about this car. Do a drag with Mat from carwow against the older M3P model ❤
Beautiful car! I know its still early doors but what which would you say feels better overall: New P or New LR? (Asking as I got a LR in Feb & I am unsure if I should have waited for the P... 😅)
Looks absolutely fantastic! Cant wait to test one here in Finland myself!
Owned a 2019 M3P for 37k miles and 3 years and loved it more than any car I’ve owned before.
Test drove this new one the other day and wow it gave me everything I loved from the old one, and lots of improvements, small but noticeable!
Best performance car in the market by a large margin.
This will smash it in Sal sac if Tesla can sort out their b2b sales processes!
Test drive the new M3P yesterday placed my order today, fell in love with it, it’s an absolute beast
Glad you got the M3P, and white is a good colour choice.
Enjoy the performance, interesting to hear that they have managed to make the suspension smoother on that as well as the standard RWD of the Highland.
Cleaning cloths on the floor 🤦... Gets perfect paint from the factory and then just before collection someone will drag that cloth over the paint 😞
Completely agree with the White for this version, I picked my new one up Friday and a White Performance was in front of me, and it really does highlight the wing, the new splitters and really looks spot on. All other versions, get an option colour!
Picked mine up two days ago. Absolutely incredible. A lot of money but well worth it imo.
I sat in one yesterday at a service centre and liked the seats. That one was in red, which looked amazing!
The white looks incredible ! Great choice. Are you able to get black number plates in the UK?
They would be illegal on any car registered after 1st January 1973
Picking up mine Friday!! Congratulations to you.
Test drove one today, love the seats, it’s quiet, comfy and insane acceleration.
Indicators are a let down but I could live with them.
Can you do a video for first time tesla model 3 owners , what to do on collection , best set up , how to use the screen , and so on.. most vids don’t show this and just show driving
Congratulations, Richard picking up our long range Highland Monday Bristol 👍👍👍
Love the performance have fun with it!
Congratulations Rich - look forward to seeing so awesome & informative vids
Hi Richard nice looking car congratulations on your delivery the new model 3 looks really sleek nice in white to 👍😁
Congrats on the M3P! Can’t wait to see some proper UK reviews!
6:55 Actually, it's at high speed that you start to see the difference. The new car at high speed continues to pull much more than the old one, which started to lose power at high speed.
Just been visiting Oslo. Can't believe the number of Teslas there - including lots of taxis. Hundreds of LEAFs too!
It's a very nice car for the price it costs make no mistake.
NEW VS OLD DRAGRACE!
Yeah, Tesla does the UK dirty £60,000 is equivalent to $76,000, and they go for what $55,000 before a potential $7,500 rebate?
The Performance model does look way better (would look even better in red imo), but my concern was always about the ride quality compared to Long Range. Is it good enough to be a daily driver given the thinner tyres and firmer suspension? I’m so glad to hear the ride quality is good but a comparison video would be much appreciate. Perhaps see how it does with speed bumps too.
Any car, that is truly beautiful, has to be seen in white. White accentuates all of the curves subtleties.
Just chase those buttons around that roundabout.
Do you cover it in PPF right away? I did next day after delivery and after 2.5yrs and 65000 km I can say it paid off big time.
Where did you get pod from
Interesting you mentioned tyre pressures I took a long range back in march and all the tyres had flat spots because the cars had spent longer on the boat then normal due to the red sea route being closed. Tesla changes all four tyres but be interesting to hear if anyone else had had tyre pressure/ flat spot issues in the model 3 . Really can't fault the customer care though.
Your videos make me so happy
Does anyone know when you take delivery of a new model 3, whether the car comes fully charged?
Wow in Denmark it cost around 49500 pound. Guess England is very expensive
Yeah crazy compared to rest of world!
Jonas, mon ikke vi ender med ca samme priser som i England med de nye told priser.. Av av
Why do you have soo many teslas?.Love it.
I would love a fast estate version like an RS4 style… just put a deposit on a 21 plate to try before jumping in for a new one
Enjoy it! Thanks for the preview.
Congratulations on a great 🚗 cool
I thought tesla said no more right hand drive? 🤔 Thank god they made right hand drive. 👏👏💯
They only make model S AND X in left hand drive. 3 and Y they do right hand drive too
You poor folk in the UK certainly do get ripped off with car prices Richard. Exactly the same car in Australia (Also from the Shanghai factory) is worth $80900 which converts to 42163 UK Pounds.
Was looking forward to seeing your impressions! Could you ask CarWow to start showing SOC with electric drag races? Was definitely curious about that battery, here in the States we’re showing 2.9’s and high 10’s easily
The acceleration 60-XX is whats different! ;)
you didnt get the undercoating?
White is right 👍
M3P in Australia is $80,900 or £42,148
Yep 😭
Import duties and distance from the Shanghai plant is a lot of that.
From Singapore and the new model 3 performance is about 145k pounds here.
3:31 Performance badge? Someone needs to see Spaceballs!
funny fact, the old long range was faster than performance from 70 mph and up, at least in carwow's test 😊😊
Yesss! 🎉
Love watching the handover process, certainly is a nice Tesla set up!
I do like the styling, a nice updated look.
How are the auto wipers in the rain?
Should have gone for the white interior 😜👍
I hate the white interior as it is too bright and distracting. Each to his/her own.
Thanks for letting me know 🙂
Not sure how they would achieve it, but I beleive this car needs a lot more styling points to differentiate from the standard Model 3.
Need comments comparing suspension comfort and ride noise compared to the Highland bong range, not just the previous M3P please…
In comfort suspension it’s similar to standard highland which is pretty good. In sport it’s like the old performance 👍
Beautiful
Richard u can review my Hyundai IQ 5 N had it a week now if want
They didn't make the suspension more comfortable in standard mode, missed opportunity to make it more comfortable than long/standard range variants.
It’s a bummer they’ve given the UK a weak version. Why? You’ve more experience than most with Teslas and you don’t seem as blown away as you could have been? I’ve just picked up my highland dual most after a MY. I’m very happy. Ride quality, feel and quality has jumped up a lot. I loved my Y but I already really like this. I’m sure the performance version will have hidden abilities that will become apparent on track.
It’s just such a complete car
Buy no stalks, no HUD and no LCD rear mirror kills it.
IONIQ 5 N soon please
Personally don’t find fake noises in 5n appealing to me. Also new model 3 looks better.
@@Areku06 it's all about opinions but I think the IONIQ 5 N looks so much better.
Love the handover impression 'here is your car sir at the back of the shed off you go we are a bit busy any probs call, oh and PDI not complete but hey it's only a 60k car'.... No thanks
I prefer that to flowers in the boot, a welcoming smile and an the offer of expensive service contract "discounted" of course ... and "Let me introduce you to our Service Manager, he will love to be seeing you on a regular basis. He has an assistant who will pull your trousers down each time you come into our dealership."
I enjoy your videos so much
Always a very informative channel on Tesla! Are there any details of when the new Model Y Performance (Project Juniper) with the new facelift will be released? Thanks!
Is that Aqua man with you😊
I ordered mine 3 days after launch and the delivery window was June and over the month and a half it has changed 5 or 6 times. Last Sunday it changed again to August 20 to September 20.
I am really getting tired of the BS primarily because my trade is getting more miles which gives Tesla the opportunity to lower the offer on my trade. As of right now if you order one it says July - August so know if you order one their delivery window means nothing. Order a 5N instead which I'm about ready to do.
Dod you say you pay alot more than any other country ?? Where i come from this model in white with no options is $87k drive away
Love a white Performance. I'll swap you my 22 when you finish testing Richard? Just need a trip down under to make some content 😊
I always wondered, what’s up with Tesla’s yellow wheel stickers? Don’t remember other cars have this.
Hi Richard. Looks great but how do you feel about Tesla wanting the whole money up front before you get to see the vehicle? I ordered a Y and due to that and other reasons I canceled the order. But if you get there and you’re not happy with the vehicle you can reject the vehicle but they have your money. It has taken over three months just to get my deposit back from them so do not have confidence they would give me the 60k back any time soon.
Congrats Richard, looking fwd to performance videos over the coming days. Btw, did you get 15k free miles?
Great recap of the delivery process. Do you think it is worth the 19k more than the long range?
A sensible choice would be a Long Range version, this is a vanity purchase
Well, yes, but isn't every purchase of a performance car a "vanity purchase"?
Sounds like the American version is better. Especially the sports seats...
That collection was about as inspiring as a hearing aid beige kitchen from the 1980s Richard.
Undoubtedly a fantastic car to drive, just an utterly soulless purchasing process.
I actually looked at a Model Y and the order process was like ordering an iPhone. Deadens the joy out of the car buying process for me.
Prefer it to the OEM dealers.
Never bought a car because the process of buying was joyful😂😂😂
@@devonbikefilmsthe fact that your profile picture is that of a smart car that doesn’t surprise me! 🤣
I think you missed out. Tesla service is way ahead of anyone else and the cars are fantastic. I don’t understand your logic
A marriage made in heaven
Congrats!! Def looks nice in white.
Looking forward to more of your thoughts on this car...!!.
Would be nice to have RHD production for the UK based in Germany.
Seems the more obvious choice just from a distance perspective apart from anything else.
Would be nicer if the UK government had the sense to offer tesla tax breaks to build them here ?
Get our industry working again
@majordelays4909 Agreed, but Elon had the chance to build a factory here then chose Berlin instead. Can't see a UK factory happening now.
Cheers guys
Nice wheels
Look forward to more video on this car, is it only new car available in uk for under £60k 0-60 under 3 secs?
I'll be ordering my new Y later.............If my numbers come up first lolol
Shame it’s down 50bhp on the US version, and down a decent amount of torque too. And it’s half the price over there (this isn’t offset by VAT/sales taxes). We just get shafted on spec and price.
It ought to have had 600bhp+ and carbon wrapped motors at both ends.
+ a 100 kWh battery
Works out to around £38k.. How are they able to get for so much less?
.. and £9000 pounds less in Germany ... maybe it's Brexit? does Europe get a better deal now? I suppose there's no tariff because theirs are made "locally".
@@MrAdopado I guess it's because of right hand drive + enough ppl buy the car for that price
How are the new seats ?
Are you selling your old tesla which you mention has done 100k miles???
Can we get a 0-60 test please.
It’s refreshed and refined, but do you feel it’s close to approaching Taycan levels of quality and comfort?
Half the price but way more than half as good
When and how did u pay?
Really thinking about cancelling due to the power difference, us gets way cheaper price + more power….
Good cars, just massively overpriced in the U.K. compared to everywhere else.
Yep, which is not Tesla’s fault.
81k in canada
@@mikaelvellmun7228 Google says that's £46,475.78 ....
It’s not any faster to 70mph. Im waiting for plaid model 3
Carwow Test soon 😊
Clint Beastwood 😂
Keep buying and exchanging cars - wonder where the old ones go
Richard is an EV dealer
Glad you like it, when i initially bought my first M3P a (21 with new turbine flow wheels) I was blown away and already had it set in my mind that I'd trade in for the next revsion M3P however decided against it when the 24 model was announced. I just didn't feel there was a enough change over the 3 year period to justify a repeat purchase.
When’s Matt from car wow getting hold of it?
