“Let me know when my roadster is gonna be done” 🤣
Lol
You might wanna check back in the end of 2024.
@@WhiteWi😂 Will do
When did Jay ask that?
Imagine if they bring him the prototype spacex package 😂😂😂😂
Talking to the engineers and designers is a huge plus for me.
Sure beats a Superbowl commercial, doesn't it?
They need a re-engineer around. Tired of looking at the *same* car
Took them a decade to give people new headlights. That’s not good enough
The Sandy Monroe interview with all of the CyberTruck engineers was amazing. They even showed the guts of the thing and explained how it worked.
@@Freddy_Confetti then look at another car. Porsche hasn't changed the 911 design (except for tweaks) in almost 60 years. No need to change the model 3, other than little cosmetic nips & tucks. Makes more sense to just introduce new vehicles, which is what they're doing. You should check out a video on the proposed model 2. It will blow your mind.
Love these reviews. All substance, not style. No loud intros, 1 hour long cinematic shots or clickbait. Just a true, genuine review of a popular car with the head engineers behind it.
I would disagree, and only one aspect with your comment. Jay Leno’s garage videos to have a style all their own.
Blending entertainment with pure technical substance is a fine art that Leno’s Garage is wonderful at.
Jay Leno’s Garage videos are cut above when you have engineers who designed the car show up and explain directly how and why decisions were made for the finish product!
Bravo Jay, Leno’s Garage!
Perfect video
And best of all, we get to pretend the car is "less than forty grand," rather than its actual price of $52,880.
And the whole time thinking, how could a smart man like Jay vote for a fascist, lying, narcissistic, insurrectionist.....
yes, so happy they don't do some dumb music intro!
Thank you Franz and Lars for presenting with Jay!!!
This is a paid review
And he hired them
amazing
Franz clearly does not enjoy Lars' choice of shirts. Not just in this interview.
Jay's channel is an old school heaven for reviewing cars. He had the designer and the chief mechanic of the car invited and not some PR guy. Jay is the last of the Mohicans of "car guy era" that gives its place to an IG and TikTok reviewers of bling bling garbage.
@henrykissinger4479 Gotta be fair, Tesla has been putting these two guys (and good guys they are) out in front in so many public discussions. It's a great idea, they both come across as genuinely interested in getting things right. The fact that they highlight the way all the teams work together is a huge part of how Tesla is so efficient. Ford sort of said the same thing when they talked about the stuff they missed out on the Mach-E. Look up the Munro videos where they compared the Model Y to the Mach-E. The cooling system alone was a disaster for Ford in terms of how much it cost them in efficiency. I seriously would not want to own one of those when it gets to be a few years old.
@@grahammonk8013 Ford and other big manufacturers are some kind of analog players into a digital game. VW understood that and merged Bugatti with Rimac.Geniuses like Musk and Mate Rimac don't grow up on trees.
I think, the guys like to go to Jay. Jay is a legend and the visiting is not boring. 👍🤣
@@grahammonk8013are you scared of owning a Tesla or you don't love electric cars?
@@ronald_jeffery17for now, only PHEV make sens. Believe me battery improvements coming fast for it. Sadly The FIA’s WRC hybrid-powered Rally1 cars defunct.
There is something so nostalgic and wholesome that I just love about Jay Leno's garage. Plus the production quality combined with simplicity is fantastic! Thank you Jay for sticking with us on TH-cam!
An American icon now, I appreciate Jay and he's such a brilliant guy
“Whilesome”, “as a ____”, “chaotic”
@@TheHuxely this made sense to you when said it! 🙏🏻
as a fellow automotive engineer in Detroit for decades, I love this no frills straight talk from the engineers. There is no shame in describing challenges that sales/marketing MBAs like to hide. Keep 'em coming Jay!
What’s the first step to changing a flat tire?
As an engineer with an MBA, Tesla hids a lot of their BS about self-driving. They have also been awful at responses to NHTSA.
@@robnelsonbayvillage that's nothing new. All engineers have a list of things we can discuss and things we can't discuss. MBAs are useless, lost count of the number of useless MBA driven meetings I sat through hearing fancy words for overly obvious things. The hiding comes about because MBAs and sales people aren't smart enough to follow an engineering discussion or much less plan one yet the boys club bans together to try to control the narrative. been this way for as long as I've joined the cluster of a work force.
@@Cryaboutmyhandle Call a friken tow truck! I hate that the T3 does not have a spare tire. These engineers should have mentioned this.
@@Paiadakine o they did, the added weight reduces mileage even more. Funny though as the heavier car results in more tire issues.
I love that Jay is a car guy - not a petrol head or tree hugging EV lover. This honest, pragmatic review style is what we need!
@@xahstev doesn't help the earth though, lithium and cobalt
If he was a car guy he wouldn’t be backing the worst one on market. He’s a shill for checks.
@@Dingzyy y'all just keep regurgitating the same media fed bs lies and stories
@@Ban00 it's a common fact pal, I don't watch news and propaganda. Do you know how batteries are made? I can tell you're an American.
@@Dingzyylife cycle assessments studies have been done and while EV batteries do cost more environmentally to make, it breaks even within a year or two of use compared to combustion engines.
So in short, yes, they are better than ICEV, and the more you drive over the years of ownership, the better they are. Not only that, it also benefits from power grids going green.
I appreciate Jay's pressure on the roaster development. ;)
He is really good when it comes to reviewing cars. What car do you own Oleston?
Stupid marketing ploy
what is he going to be roasting? is this jay leno's kitchen?
Huh? I own an electric roaster. It’s made by Magic Chef.
Our rotisserie? Just set it and forget it - Elon Popiel@@bebo4807
Tesla engineer: we put 500 hours into figuring out how to strengthen, lighten, and sound proof our glass all at once.
Jay: yeah the steering wheel is smaller isn’t it
What I love about Jay’s garage is that I can listen and don’t have to keep looking at the screen. Jay does a great job of explaining automotive history without needing visuals.
One of the best reviews of this car and zero mentions of the CEO. Finally getting the engineering as the focus - thank you!
This is another thing that makes Tesla great- Head engineer, designer coming on a show like this, talking about the car that they are obviously passionate about. Thanks Jay!
In a traditional company no one in the company is allowed to open their mouth without a written permission from the PR department.
Apparently Elon runs his companies differently.
Tesla great? That what makes Leno great. He is the one that asks for Head engineers and designers to show up. He literally said it in the video...
Do you also invest in tesla shares?
@@deividasnavickasThese two engineers are on literally on every Tesla interview about their products.
@@phebrian so they act like PR?
Every time I watch and listen to Franz von Holzhausen I am amazed at how modest this man is. He has designed virtually every Tesla vehicle including the cyber truck, and semi truck,with the exception of the first generation roadster. N my eyes, he is an absolute genius.
Well cybertruck was kind of designed by Elon which shows - these are essentially my initial less sophisticated sketches from a kindergarten. The designers hated this design but Elon loved it. At least according to the latest biography.
Engineered …
Worked on the Prius. Designed Saturn Sky. But Tesla made him fabulously rich...
Cybertruck is brilliant
And the dude can throw a steel ball at a window like nobody's business.
Jay Leno is a true car lover, this channel is so much better than all the car reviewers trying so hard and hating on Tesla
As a current owner of a Tesla, I can easily say it has been the best car we have ever owned. My Model Y is a 2021 and is just about 3 years old. No Issues! We've heard it all: "it doesn't save money" OH yes it does! we average about 18K miles/yr. Electricity cost? about $60/mo. Thats easily 1/3 cost to drive. "What about battery?" No noticeable change in range, and the sats are less than 3% ever need a battery serviced (8 year warranty anyway) Speed? Well I like to say this car goes 0-100 SMILES-AN-Hour better than any. Don't hesitate to consider one of these. They really are fast,fun,safe and now affordable.
Yes, but all the haters have never owned one. People who own them love them. They have the highest owner brand loyalty and retention in history. But hey...what does that mean?
Thank you Jay for reviewing this.
I love how quiet they get to talk in the cabin in this video in comparison to some of the other cars that get shot
Well, Leno rarely reviews a Toyota Camry. The performance cars are trying to be loud.
@@DumbledoreMcCrackencorrect, this is performance and quiet!
That engineer: so knowledgeable. The designer also knew when to make a point. I think quite a bit of the hard work is easy to overlook when you do a rudimentary comparison of this redesign. I understand that it doesn’t look vastly different; the Porsche 911 is praised for this minimalism in change.
When guys are at that level it makes it easy to get out of telling your wife about work every day.
The real marvel is delivering all that at $40k. Unbelievable design and engineering
I think it does look vastly different. I've wanted a model 3 since it was announced. I thought it was ugly. It grew on me through the years, and when finally seeing one in real life, I loved it. I was close to buying one in late 2019. I even test drove the dual motor, which is what I wanted to purchase. It was the nicest car I ever drove. The most expensive car my husband and I owned was a 2002 Saab 9 3 manual. We love manuals. I decided to wait to buy one until after battery day that was supposed to happen in late March 2020. Then the pandemic hit. I personally like the outside of the original design over the refresh. I don't like that they removed the stalks either. I'm waiting for safer batteries and hopefully batteries that don't need mining. Plus, I love my 2011 Chevy Cruze eco manual. It still is fine and currently I don't drive much. The Model 3 will be a HUGE upgrade when I finally get one :).
@@kare9875... I praise us remaining manual-shift people. No matter which car I have, I need to have a 'manual' for the sheer joy of it ...
Yeah, 'The Missing-stalks' ... I believe 'stalks' are safer than what Tesla insists on...!
Yeah, What makes a 'new' car fantastic... Comparing it to your last car is the largest reason ...
Engineer kept calculating in his head all the time. You could tell how smart he is.
REALLY ENJOYED the Designer & the Engineers perspective & explanations. I have a 2018 M3 and this makes me want to purchase a new one although I will be waiting for the "Refresh Y" as we need an easier entrance/exit from the vehicle as we are old ;) The explanations of how things work blew me away!!
Everytime jay says it's 40k you can see the huge smile on the guys saying in their heads "not this one but thanks for the publicity!"
Exactly. 😅
This one with red and wheels is 50k.
I mean…. The LR is a basically a $40k car in California with the state tax credit. Too bad the refreshed 3 doesn’t qualify for federal.
Tell us how poc are supposed to buy 50k throw away cars? Not one can answer and just scream at sky.
@@CryaboutmyhandleAll cars have a failure rate. I’ve owned used and had to replace on several occasions due to engine failure. I feel saying disposable is disingenuous.
Great video. Also as an engineer it's refreshing to hear from another engineer on the design specs and reasoning for a change rather than just someone talking about feel all the time. Great job!
Lars and Franz are here to Amp you up!
To inject some reality...
They literally MADE the thing!
Absolutely. Fabulous to hear these two describe what they have done with this car.
@6:00 Lars almost had a heart attack thinking something was wrong with Jay’s Model S lol
Then big relief on @6:15
LOL
That’s when you know Jay Leno shows are not scripted.
Hahaha
These dude know exactly what Jay was talking about. The damn brakes squeal when you inch forward. It’s a know issue and they won’t fix it.
@@socalsal So what information do you have that would lead you to such a conclusion?
I love that Lars is thinking in metric and ISO units ❤ a real engineer 😉
20:14 "The Future".
Thank You, Jay, for accepting it!
Love Jays Garage. Always learn something and he gets into every type of car, truck, old, new...always enjoy his guests too.
This is why Jay is a real legend and someone I’ve always looked up to, he’s never afraid to try something new while staying open-minded enough to grow with the times.
It would be real easy for him to dismiss newer, more complicated cars with that beautiful collection!
Are you kidding? He converted his model T into electric many years ago.
He has a 1915 Baker Electric
The Baker is amazing. It has a big resistor pack for braking. It stops better than any car of its day.
Hearing Franz and Lars together is basically two of a band of rock gods jamming together
Whatever, they are just designers and engineers.
John Delorean thought he was kinda of a rock star too and how’d that work out for him?
If anything they are more like a behind-the-scenes producer who turns the art of a musician into a pop record for the masses.
@@scottbaxendale323 How did it work out for him? Dunno mate, he only has his name on the most famous car in the world.
@@jful That’s right mate, and a lengthy prison sentence for his coke deal that caused his company to fail.
@@scottbaxendale323 well, I guess I'll just wait for the investigation into Franz and Lars because as we all know if one engineer did it, they all do!
Fanboys are delirious for these dudes!😂
Great review! I love my Model 3 and I don't think I could ever go back to any other manufacturer after owning a Tesla
I think you've been paid to say this
That is amazing to have both the designer and the engineer to be able to talk about the production of the car. Thanks for the video Jay!!
Jay might remember West Street Motors when living in the Merrimack Valley. In 1968 a friend of mine bought a 98 Oldsmobile there and was constantly bringing it back to resolve a hissing noise. Eventually the owner of the dealership took notice and asked him why he was there so often, so he explained about the hissing noise the guys had been getting beat up by and hadn't been able to fix. So the owner pulled the file on the car and started going through the laundry list which started with the muffler, resonator going on to then include the headers, then weather seals, replace windshield, side view mirrors, heads, alternator, water pump, radiator, power steering pump, blower, ac system, front wheel bearings, front brakes, rear brakes, rear axle, drive shaft, entire engine, transmission, etc, etc and after all that it still wasn't fixed. The owner asked for the keys and took it for a drive and yes it still made this weird hissing noise so he rolled down all the windows and stuck his head out. When they got back he asked them to change the tires to a set from a new 1968 98 Olds that was in the showroom that didn't hiss and the hiss went away. A slight variation in the tires was the cause of the problem that the mechanics couldn't figure out. Tires can sometimes make some odd noises that are hard to pin down. The owner of the dealership was not very happy yet glad to have stopped the bleeding.
Best!
Tires, makes sense. Thought it would be a loose vacuum hose under the dash. Or the radio was on an unused channel, turned down but not off.
Tires on my M3 sound loud as hell because there’s no other sound to mask them.
Former Service Manager at a Buick Dealership and I am guessing this was around 1994. Customer brought in a Park Avenue with a small weird vibration around 56 mph. Hard to pick up on but once you felt it you would always feel it. Drove another Park and vibration wasn't there. Spent some time trying to isolate but it turns out to be a rim and tire combo. Rim with other tires didn't do it and tires with different rim didn't do it. Customer opted for different tires so problem solved.
@@danrandall794Good Story. Good to hear about these 'weird' things ... thanks
Thank you@@larrylong9367
Lars and Franz are making it hard for me to choose between a M3 and model Y.Just so interesting listening to guys that know their engineering
The new model 3 is something special. Trust me
M3, there is no debate 😅
Wait a year if possible and get the refreshed Y. Much bigger and usuable space will look different and be even more improved compared to the 3 refresh as well
M3 if you don’t need the extra space and room. It’s about the same price right now too. I bought my MYLR two weeks ago and I absolutely adore it. Love driving it.
Supposedly, there’s a new Model Y coming with all of the Model 3’s improvements.
This red model 3 looks amazing. Love it.
Meanwhile, thousands of electric Tesla's remain unsold in new car sales lots.
@@zakstev Which rock have you just crawled out from? Your statement says more about your state of mind than what is reality. Tesla doesn’t do dealership and they don’t have a new car lot. You order a Tesla on your phone and you wait for your car to be made and delivered. If you order your Tesla car today you have to wait from a few weeks to several months. If you want a Tesla cybertruck, your wait time is 2 to 3 YEARS.
@@zakstev you’ve obviously never heard the phrase. “It’s better to remain quiet and thought a fool than to speak up and remove all doubt.”😳
I always look to Jay for an informative review of any car. His knowledge and the people he brings along are the best. This review has got me seriously contemplating purchasing a Tesla Model 3. I'm hoping the incentives make it possible...
Jay keep em coming please! We are rooting for ya! You were one of the very first TH-cam channels I subscribed to, I think number 2 back in 09 and I appreciate everything you do!
My 2014 Model S has 161k+ miles as of this post and still performs like new. By far the best vehicle I’ve ever owned. Thank you Tesla.
And thank you Jay for featuring so many great cars on your channel.
That's sweet! I always worried that original Tesla batteries wouldn't be able to go the distance. Hoping the LFP batteries in my Tesla will outlive the car!
How much is the battery degradation on your car so far ?
@@5836609 Now at 162k miles, retains 90% of its original SOC. This is on par for most Tesla’s of of this age with this many miles. You can also find crowd sourced data that show where the majority of Tesla battery degradation is at different intervals.
At 200k, according to crowdsourced data points, I expect it to be closer to have 88% of its original SOC. At this rate, think my wife and I will get another 10 years out of this battery. Maybe after 20 or so years, we’ll think about maybe getting a battery swap. It’s grandfathered into unlimited free Supercharging, so it’s a keeper. 🙂
Let me guess: 3rd motor? Or still the second?
@@grggi35 original.
Love these segments! Jay - Thanks for sharing your love of vehicles and for bringing Lars and Franz to your garage and share more details. Awesome!
Aww, love these guys talking about design and engineering
these are the kinda videos i like where the engineer and designer are involved to ask questions
23:44 The gentleman in the back is selling those brakes! 😂❤✨😉👍
Thanks Jay, one of the best reviews I’ve seen. Great to hear from the designers and engineers and to get your thoughts as a car enthusiast.
Super cool guys with tons of knowledge and information to share! Thanks Jay, I really appreciate your videos.
Really enjoyed this Jay - and you selected the perfect copilots.
Live in Norway where there is a lot of supercharging stations, Teslas and non-Teslas. Have a SR+ 21m, and I am supersatisfied. One thing that strikes me about Model 3 is that is cheap and deliever in so many ways. If you drive your old grandma, she would be happy because you drive careful and it is supersmooth if you want it to be. At the same time you can scare your comrades to death if you use all its power out of the traffic lights. But the one thing that really surprised me is the way it handles corners. I have heard that american cars can't do corners, but this one handle corners in a way that I chicken out long before the car get dangerous. Its almost has the car can follow any legal speed in any corners in country roads. In these roads I many times drives comfortable and follow the speed limit but are gaining on normal cars ahead. The reason are that I can drive fast in corners and can without any stress pick up the speed fast out of the corners. The cars that overtake me, do not follow the speed limit on the open roads. One last thing: The autopilot works so well that the closets thing is BMW or Mercedes that costs 3 times what my car costs.
Still, a Miata is more fun, hit those corners at 3 times the speed recommended for them and really live life
@@fortheloveofnoise9298
Guess who designed the Miata?

17 speakers...i'm sold!!
Deep. Or like my GF would say, "I like the colour - I'll take it."
How do you like the steering Jay? Jay after driving straight for 25 miles: it feels great!
Thanks to Jay for the video. I am not a big fan of Tesla but I can appreciate the amount of research, engineering, design and Technology thats into all the Teslas. There are no doubts they are here to change the way we move and we transport stuff. I hope for the better. 😊
What surprised me is the amazing sound system in model 3 with dual motor.
Just bought my 2023 in December, right before the rebate ended. LOVE IT!
Same here 😊
Doesn't all the tesla clickbait seem silly now? So many mountains out of mole hills. If the same scorn was pointed at ICE cars they would be considered Everest!
The engineer in the back seat whenever Jay floors the accelerator. ;P Meanwhile, Franz is totally calm and cool. He knows Jay's gonna giver at any point.
Lars is the engineer in the back seat
@@burgers8 yes, i mistyped. I've fixed it. ;)
Totally agree. Past Model 3 driver and this one improved all the negatives, and feels like a Model S. Also its extremely loud during pre warm up
The front end looks sooo much better now without that duck look. Nice job Tesla.
I thought it looked like a frog. Ha ha. But it grew on me and I don't like the way the refresh looks. It is more efficient, so I like that.
I like the new design, but I actually prefered the old duck/fish look, I feel like it kinda had more personality. The old model's headlight resembled Porsche Panamera a bit, while the new design looks more like Audi. I dislike Audis so my bias might be coming from there as well 😝
Cod fish look, love it.
I have a 2023 MYLR and it is great. My last 3 cars were Honda accords (all got 225k+) and I find a similar engineering ethic. Just build a quality, safe, reliable car that looks great and ignore the marketing and it will sell itself. Great cars.
Isn't it funny how great teslas actually are compared to how egotistical grease monkeys assume they are? In historical order it goes walking, horses, steam, internal combustion, then NO MORE! ICE FOREVER!
Never listen to luddites!
The best TH-cam video of 2024!! The "Big" guys from Tesla hosted by Jay Leno! Thanks so much! Love the car BTW!
An absolute pleasure to watch these guys talking to Jay, not everyone can get such review group together.
Thanks Jay and Tesla guys.
This is an incredible update on a best selling car that really steps it up. Wow.
Always love hearing from the people behind these amazing cars! They seem like genuinely nice people.
Are you Tesla owner?
Yes, both my wife and I have been driving Model 3s for 6 years and they are great driving cars, problem free, that's why it's so nice to hear from the people that were instrumental in their design and engineering! Six years later, I still walk up to one of our Model 3s sitting under a streetlight after dinner with my wife and say, "Damn! That's a good looking car!" Amazingly, Franz and team has improved the already ground-breaking aesthetics, and it sounds like Lars and team made it ride and sound better too!

Love the video! I'm not much of an electric guy but that car is sharp.
Guy in stripes is so technical, I love all the features and engineering of the model 3!
I could listen to these guys for hours. Amazing what they have built. Truly. Excited to hear more about the Performance variant of the 2024 Model 3.
Fabulous car! I have a 4.5 year old M3P which is still absolutely brilliant- but perhaps time to consider an update when the new Performance Highland is released??
Thanks for this. I have a Mazda 3 and my friend has a Tesla 3 I would love to get one of these new ones.
Here in Norway we definitely miss a front fog-light and a back windshield viper from the car, as there can be winters here, obviously with fog and snow and much rain.
Have driven a car in Norway for 40 years. Never had fog lights or rear wiper. Never missed it either.
The Los Angeles freeways and tires create that crazy noise.....drives me crazy but not a Tesla problem.
I really like this interview. Simple and honest conversation. Great questions plus the head engineer has his shirt as it should be: unironed.
A great discussion of the refinement of the vehicle and an excellent presentation of the choices involved in battery size and selection. The driving section gave a good view of the suspension compliance the stance and balance of the car appear much improved.
Very cool to add value to an already good car. I bought my Model 3 in 2018 and the wife and I fought over who got to drive it so I had to buy her one too😀. Best vehicles I've ever owned, and I've owned many.
To have Jay, the lead engineer and the lead designer all together inside the car is really the best. I sat in one of these new refreshed 3s the other day and hope to drive one soon. There are literally hundreds of improvements in the car both large and small. I think I just may buy one when the Performance variant hits the market.
Do you also invest in tesla shares?
Love this thanks so much from a long time Tesla owner.
love ya Jay! thanks for the overview!
would love to know why they are so against a head up display and why buttons for indicators are better than stalks especially on roundabouts (which we have a lot of in the UK)
You don't need a HUD on an Autonomous car.
You're moving your eyes 10° left (UK) to see the speed rather than 15°down... whatever.
(Actually, as a tall driver, I HATE looking "through" the wheel)
.
When I "approach" a roundabout, I tend to indicate *before* I'm turning.
If I'm turning "right" (3rdexit?) and it's a large roundabout, the wheel is going to be at about 45° and decreasing as I indicate left.... So no problem.
.
If it's a small one, once the right indicator is on, it's obvious where your going.
.
@@rogerstarkey5390 yes, tall people like us actually often can't see the hud through the wheel properly, if at all. That's why the plaid yoke and the center screen are actually great for us
I love how Jay calls them out on battery power not being as perfect as they like to portray lol
The primary point was made. People forget the huge amount of energy petrol needs before it even gets in your car. Once batteries are mined, they can just exist for years and then recycled.

As a 2018 Tesla Model 3 LR owner (best car we ever bought - almost 90k miles on it) - we love our Tesla (and it's red too) :) Great video! Thank you!
Jay - The amount of batteries equivalent to one gallon of gas makes no sense when you consider the same battery will cycle thousands of times but one gallon of gas was used up in say 50 miles needing hundreds of more gallons of disappearing fuel or perhaps thousands of equivalent for the same recyclable battery over 500,000 miles lifetime plus your EV can power the grid or your home in a power outage

The Tesla haters are out early, but I find it funny they waste their time commenting. I’m not a Tesla groupie myself and prefer their competitor Rivian, however you can’t ignore what the 1,000’s of Tesla employees accomplished. To build a car company is no small feat, but to build an EV car company that is successfully producing tens of thousands of vehicles every year is remarkable. Elon gets much of the lime light however I think the Tesla employees are the real heroes for making his vision a reality.
Millions, not tens of thousands. Tesla sold 1.8M cars last year.
@@modestmousecoloredpersonYou assume they post meaningful opinion, I don’t see much of that.
Fact is that to build this technology costs much more than endotermic technology and is putting in much more geopardy our planet
@@astewart1900Agree, I was just emphasizing my point.
lol you wasted just as much time complaining about people that complain
No indicator stalks is a deal breaker outside of the US where we have roundabouts and actually use indicators.
People will get used to the haptic switches.
@@spacep0d haptic makes no difference if the wheel is upside down and moving. The problem is that particularly in tighter multi-lane roundabouts is that you need to switch from indicating one way to the other mid turn while watching other for other cars. The steering is actually turned more than 100º.
I don't have the same reservations with the steer-by-wire in the cybertruck because the wheel/yolk does not move as much and the position of the indicator is much more predictable.
@@markedwards4879 you're wasting your time, this commentor is a bot.
@@misternordberg3675 No worries. 90% of the time my replies are targeted at others reading the comments rather than the OP
@@markedwards4879I agree, stalks are better. Yoke at least is optional, as stalks should be too.
I seen one today at the mall, I have a 2021 Model 3, that refresh is so nice... I may need to get another 😀
Thank you jay for demoing your model 3
If I was going to get an electric car soon... I think that it would have to be the new 3... so cleanly designed and logical.
Great car, great price but please can we have indicator stalks and driver display for speed and range. Hate that screen in the middle!
"The plan"

Best detailed review Jay as always the best channel for cars❤
Cool review with Jay Leno's signature, nicely done!
Just got the 2024 model Y with extended battery pack last week. All I can say is Wow! Love the car. All I can say if you test drive one you will want one.
If you don’t have any brainpower sure. What’s it like paying for extended range that isn’t even the same as a moped?
My 2018 performance 3 has been an excellent car. I hear the new version is next level still. I’m avoiding a test drive thing as I don’t want to upgrade yet. lol
I have a Model Y and I'm waiting for the refresh on that. Once that releases we'll see how long I last. :)
OMG I love this wagon, I'd love to have a project car like this !
I really like how Lars is 100% on the details of the product..... shows the passion in his job with Tesla.
My nephew got his first Tesla Model 3 in January. He first wanted to get a Mustang GT, but I sent him all the Tesla related information he needed before making his final decision. He ended buying model 3, and there is no day we speak, and he doesn't thank me for convincing him to get the Model 3 over the Mustang GT
Yea just wait a little he'll be sorry, you're an awful uncle.

@@V8_screw_electric_carsyou're an embarrassment to the car enthusiast community. It's pathetic how much pearl clutching there is from the gas burner crowd.
@@kennyg1358 Because they're real cars not ipads on wheels go back simping on muh tesla buy some more stock to make them money cause they sure don't make them by selling this junk that nobody wants.

Jay still as smooth as this beautiful M3 Tesla...
Really such a beautiful piece of design and engineering
Jay is the definition of class Tesla is the definition of perfection
What a scoop, George Costanza and the lead singer from Metallica all in one video 👍

I am surprised the wipers didn’t flip at least once. They flip on mine all the time. Except when I most need them. He must have had the wipers on “off” and not “auto”.
Yeah, anytime I hit a bug smaller than a mosquito my wipers are triggered.
