- Autopilot is hands down one of Tesla's best features. This is just the standard version of autopilot that we are using-hopefully one day we can upgrade to the full self driving !

I like how TH-camrs like you don't show autopilot like it drives itself and shows autopilot realistically. You can find many videos where people show the car can fully drive itself
Thanks Afnan ! I wasn't even going to upload it because it felt a bit boring but good to show a normal drive on autopilot
@@RyanCowan Yeah it is! I really do enjoy watching your videos
@@afnanmazumder6492 thank you 🥰🙏
Autopilot is meant to only be used on the freeways where you don't have intersecting traffic, pedestrians, etc.
This muppet is putting people's lives at risk using a freeway system on regular roads
@@01DOGG01 do you own a Tesla?
Its content like this that just keeps me coming back. I know it sounds simple, but a simple video like this proves that you're making content other channels don't. And for someone that is ordering a Model 3 this year, I'm trying to soak up all the aussie tesla content I can. Keep up the great videos.
Thank you so much, that means a lot! Really appreciate these sort of comments, especially when I wasn’t sure about uploading this video 😂 Glad you liked it. What model 3 you going to order ? 😁👏
@@RyanCowan and I really appreciate your videos. Just looking at the standard Read Wheel Drive. White with black interior.
@@Truthfulnerd thats very exciting ! White is my favourite paint colour. I was very glad it was the free option 😂
@@RyanCowan same here. I've also looked into the white interior, looks fantastic, but feel it might play hell on my OCD.
@@Truthfulnerd 😂 haha yeah I can understand that. Personally we have absolutely fallen in love with the white interior. Makes it feel like a spaceship inside the car. Super easy to clean too, not that we've really had to clean them much.
Hey Ryan, awesome video! gives us the right expectations and gets me more excited to get my own tesla!
Just picked up my Model 3 yesterday from Mulgrave. So excited. Can’t wait to drive it on autopilot
Thanks Ryan, just gave us the right expectations and gets me more excited to get my own tesla!
Another great video Ryan. Have you looked at all your settings for the autopilot to make sure things are turned on that need to be as I watched another video on setting up autopilot and there a few options that you can turn on to make it easier including the reading of the speed signs and how it will react to them. You may have done this already but just thought I would mention it to you if you haven't.
Thanks Sheryl ! Very true
Excellent video thanks
Thanks for the vid
Ryan, great & helpful video. Learnt on another channel recently that you can push one of those wheel buttons on steering wheel sideways instead of applying pressure to steering wheel to reassure autopilot.So they said -let me know if its wrong - im still waiting on a M3.
Hey ! Thanks for the comment. So interesting that u mention that-I had tried moving the scroll wheels up and down, and it didn't work but I hadn't tried them to the side ! I had seen someone else do it on TH-cam but couldn't work out what I was doing wrong. I will have to give this a shot-I reckon you're right ! Thanks for the tip. Excited for u to get your model 3
That's a beautiful part of the world down there. I live in Forest Hill and try to get down there whenever I can. I picked up my Blue Long Range Model 3 last week and have to wait 3 weeks to get PPF before I can do too many road trips. Loving it so far. The horsepower is amazing.
Hey Steve, congrats on the new car !! And great idea getting the PPF. Enjoy mate and keep me updated.
Beautiful video, Ryan!
Thank you for your constant support Mitchell 💙
@@RyanCowan You are welcome, Ryan. It’s really great to be acknowledged.
Great review! I was looking for a video with some Autopilot driving and it seems to work well. Getting a Model 3 tomorrow and looking forward to testing it out.
Oh mate you'll love it ! Super excited for you. Autopilot will take about 20mins to calibrate once you start driving. Enjoy picking up the new car mate !
I can’t wait to be honest! I have an Alfa Romeo Stelvio that has lane keeping, distance control etc. it works well but nothing like the Tesla! I’m impressed
Oh nice ! Well yeah, basic Autopilot has been great, but Enhanced Autopilot has taken us a little bit longer to get used to. It can be a bit funny with auto lane changes and decisions sometimes, which is what you'll have when you take delivery. It will get much better with software updates soon though @@anthonysferruzzi
Picked up the model 3 yesterday and I would have to say it’s probably one of the best cars I’ve driven. Tons of fun and great sound system!
I've been using openpilot on these exact same roads for about 3-4 months, the lat is better than autopilot here but the long still needs improvement.
Very useful….slightly terrifying seeing I’ve never used it before but looking forward to the challenge!! Thanks for sharing! Marcus
You will love it ! But certainly takes a bit of time to get used to it :)
8:00 rattle may be seat belt buckle, face metal part to seat and not frame, that's what i did.
Great video mate. So it sounds like you hit the accelerator to moderate the auto breaking? Do you ever use the actual brake pedal? Also how long does it take to get out of the habit of hitting the brakes and is it easy to switch back to the normal pedal usage ie accelerator=go not stop?
Thanks Dave ! Often find myself using the accelerator when autopilot is on, but never using the brake pedal. If I see something I want to slow for, I just push up on the stalk to disable AP and the regen breaking is strong enough to pull back the speed quickly 👍
Take your rearview mirror protector off if you haven't already done so. It's the clear plastic thing around the edge. It's only there to protect the mirror during transit.
Curiously how do you find country roads in Australia? ones with lines still that is. ...
Hi......I am a little confused. Does the car come with the abiity to do this or do you need to but the Autopilot package for 10K? If its standard what does Autopliot give you extra?
Car comes with this. We haven't paid any extra for autopilot .
But is this any better/different to many other cars that have distance cruise control and lane assist?
My 2009 Ford Mondeo had the distance cruise (which was brilliant), though no lane assist, but that's an 11 year old car, so this technology has been around for a while.
Heaps better than anything else in the market. Wait a few years and you'll see why (it's based off AI)
would be nice if you make left and right turns and demo how the autopilot behaves.
The 'rattling' noises are from my crappy camera setup 😂 Apologies. I'm going to buy a suction cup for next time !
Lol even I noticed they watching your Tesla in the signal lol
is this basic or enhanced autopilot?
That's cool!
That’s great. Just got our car and haven’t engaged auto pilot yet. 🇦🇺
Enjoy 🥰
Hey mate, does it pick up roos on the edge of the road. That would be real handy driving in the country 👍🇦🇺
Hey mate, have had exactly the same thought. From what I can tell, yes it does. There's several videos online of autopilot reacting to different types of animals on the road. Anything bigger than a bird on or near the edge of the road, the car seems to slow down to safely avoid it. This will get better in time too.
Excellent 👍👍👍
Those Roos get bloody nasty if they come through the windscreen imagine the blood on those nice vegan seats.🙀
@@farmerfarmerer3847 would be utterly horrifying.
Interesting so thank you. If you've driven a recent model Toyota, I'd be interested in knowing the differences between Autopilot and Toyota's cruise control and lane assist features. They seem similar to me but I've not driven a Tesla so your comments would be helpful. Cheers
Yeah this is a great question. I will try and do a video on this soon, but in short ... Tesla's Autopilot is based on its Full Self Driving software, which basically means the car can drive itself with little intervention from the driver. They have a team of thousands working on this. The safety features alone are incredibly smart, with all those cameras constantly monitoring your surroundings. Anyway I hope that helps.. there's a lot to unpack here so will plan a video 👍 thanks for the great question
In the Toyota, the car won’t make lane changes, turns, detect cars that are to the left or right, etc. When on a highway it may seem like you’re in “Autopilot” since it’ll adjust speed and minor lane corrections. But other than that, the Tesla’ll do more
@@Luma_29 Thanks for the info ! It's so interesting how all the various car brands tackle this differently. I'm actually just editing a video on this now for upload tomorrow.
Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
just wondering, do you know when can we order MYLR in Australia? Maybe your SA told you thing? :P
haha rumour is within the next few weeks 🤞 fingers crossed !!
@@RyanCowan awesome! Do you just go online or need to visit showroom in Chatswood?
@@eddiexiang3606 online 👍
@@RyanCowan thx!
That was an interesting demonstration, thank you. I was surprised how well AP performed on normal suburban streets. Since it recognises traffic lights, I’m disappointed it needs FSD to make use of them. When I test drove before ordering, I liked the feature where it prompted me at traffic lights if I didn’t react when they changed. But was disappointed to learn I would need FSD to get it.
Thanks Ian, glad you found it interesting. And you’re right, I wish the traffic light feature was included in standard AP but I guess they gotta reserve some of this nice to have software features for full self driving 😢
They don't up sell you when you purchase. They do however tease and encourage you to spend the $10k+ on FSD ;)
Today car racer Taiwan Jimmy Lin Tesla car accident result as example...If the driver's death cause by burning, not because of a car crash! Says Tesla batteries are cheaper than gasoline. What is the use? To be honest, when Tesla went public in the United States many years ago, there were very few cases of car lithium battery fires, but at that time American firefighters have commented that lithium battery fires are terrible and difficult to put out. The news was only listed for 2 days before it was removed from the news site. Because it affects Tesla's sales. My husband wants to buy a Tesla, but I stop him from buying it. We argued for a few days. He said American Firefighters' comments were wrong. Now this car accident, my husband has nothing to say.
I wouldn't trust auto pilot
It's actually amazing ! You get more confident the more you use it
