This guy is the best at talking during all of his test drives. He consistently holds the conversation / dialog without effort while still adding value the entire time. No matter how much practice I have, I'd still have awkward silence moments. It's truly a skill to admire.
On a race track nonetheless.
You need to watch Misha Charoudin if you think this guy is good.
I just completed a 5,531 mile US road trip in my 2021 Model 3 SR+
Over 13 days of driving (July 10 through July 31, 2022, with time in Kentucky) from Sacramento CA to Louisville KY and back (with numerous side trips), I drove nearly half what I drive in a year.
Shortest daily distance ~300 miles. Longest drive in a day: 650+ miles. Average daily drive ~425 miles.
The final analysis: Wow. This is definitely a road warrior vehicle, despite so-called “conventional wisdom.”
I am still plugging in metrics and numbers, but I estimate about 60 (57 exactly) charging stops. In all those stops, I only had ONE 5 minute wait to plug in, at Glenwood Springs, CO. One. For 5 minutes. I’ve waited longer in a grocery store line. And that was a small charging station on a major interstate.
I drove through and charged in major cities (LA, Amarillo, OK City, Little Rock, Memphis, Nashville, St. Louis, Kansas City, Denver, Salt Lake City) and many small towns and wide spots in the road. 72 kW or 250 kW.
Typically, I was either the only one there or one of two Teslas. My typical stop was 20-25 minutes. Enough time to have a short walk about, use the bathroom, grab a bottle of water and snack, text family, and then get back on the road (these timely breaks, and the awesome auto pilot, assured I’d be rested and relaxed, even after many hours of travel).
I charged on weekdays, weekends, rush hour, nighttime, huge supercharger (50+) or small (4), on the interstate or off some small blue highway… I drove and charged through them all. No cherry picking. (Consider also the local catastrophic climate issues in Kentucky and St. Louis during my trip home, July 26-31.)
~60 (57) superchargers. 6,000 (5,531) miles. 13 days of driving. In July, 2022. One wait. 5 minutes. Starbucks line? Bank lines? Costco gas lines? Holding on the phone? 5 minutes is a piece of cake!! And it was once, out of 57 charging stations.
And 5,531 miles of supercharging cost me ~$600.00. ($522.00, actually.) More than charging at home. But far less than the ICE equivalent (2021 330i, RWD BMW), of $900+ at ~33 hwy mpg, premium gas. With no maintenance cost other than wear/tear on tires.
I can’t speak for others. But I would say that’s a complete success in my book. Brilliant!
I had a Standard range Model 3 over a weekend as a Hertz Rental, and as a BMW 340i M Sport driver, I was shocked to see how well rounded of a car even the cheapest Tesla was.
Great News! I think the best upgrade options yoke steering wheel+titanum lugnuts. Let me know if you're interested in adding any of these accessories to your own amazing Tesla!
yes…back in 2016 Elon said that even if you get the Model 3 without any upgrades that it will be an amazing car. I guess he was right! Again!😂🥳🤩
It`s the same as the Performance only RWD. Teslas are so boring, no difference between the trims.
@@MrStian78 LOL, clearly you've never driven one. The Std is a 5.5 sec car, the Perf is 3 sec 🤣 And the even the slow one feels faster than my BMW 340i, 0 lag and a hammer like power delivery 😀
@@MrStian78 The same as performance? LMAO. You have never been in any tesla.
I drive a Standard Range+, and I completely get the notion that saving 10k is a big deal when I was comparing it to the LR. Like, if you can live with the SR+, it makes it the best bang for the buck like the owner said.
True. Of course everyone has to decide it on the own needs and possibilies. But I was thinking the same. Advantage of the LR is more power, fast acceleration, higher VMax, AWD, better charging speed, more maximum range. But it costs more, it's not that efficient and I rarely have long stretches. So I can pump it up to 100% in daily life and have nearly the same range than the LR using a limit of 90% or 80%.
So I saved a lot of money and I am really happy with it. Looking forward to Model Y SR in europe how that will be.
Same. SR+ is very handy for driving around the city. Love mine, left me more money to spend on other toys.
I would miss the premium audio, otherwise yes
I went from a 4.4 second Tesla to this 5.6 and after a few days your body adjusts and you just feel like you're in a fast car again. If you don't absolutely floor the car at every traffic light (I do) then there's no point buying the long range unless you do a lot of country driving. Just buy this car and drive it like a maniac and you'll have the same fun for 10k less 😀
I bought a Panasonic SR+ back at the time, but at that time for 9000 more I could have got a long range dual motor… I regret that every once in a while for the battery and power
Ok, I love the little C1 with the Lightning McQueen getup! :D
The driver’s enthusiasm is wonderful. Have fun.

Bought my 2021 SR+ for $41k in Sept 21. Got a $5k rebate from NJ so bought car for $36k. No sales tax. Has required no servicing except a tire rotation with Tesla mobile service did for $50 in my driveway. 0-60 in 5.3 seconds is plenty fast and it has tremendous handling and all the tech you could ever want. Bang for the buck? Hell yes!
The LR can do 0-60 in 3.7. It's so fast and silent you have to worry about other people pulling into your lane because nobody is used to checking for a car accelerating that quickly. So the 0-60 in 5.3 is probably a good thing... I needed the 360 miles of range though on the LR I have a hour drive each day. It's been saving me like $800 a month so like my net spending is down buying an expensive car. It feels so backwards
@@Robulite ironically at least by me Tesla drivers are always in the slow lane going the speed limit 😂
Got the same deal in NJ in June 2020… what a dream it is, will never regret it, despite tires finally waring after 2 years and 38k miles and will run me about 1k for a full new set
Wife Got the same model as a company car in September last year. Astonishing for the money. She has a charger at work so, thus far we haven’t paid a dime for “fuel”. No service needed yet either and averaging 135 watts per klm. Summer range 420 klm, winter 380.
@@Carfan678 maybe using autopilot?
cheapest Tesla with 5 adults can keep up with many cars with tuning and one driver! pretty amazing
You mean a Tesla with a senior citizen owner driving slow? We all know a Tesla is an old person car.
@@jimdandy9118 Many exotics are owned by older people. Does that make them cars for older people?
@@Muskar2 Where I live I see a lot of exotic cars on the road…..I almost never see people the age of Tesla drivers in them. So yes, Tesla is an old person car primarily here.
@@jimdandy9118 Alright, but that wasn't my point. What you see is not representative of a million owners. And I think both exotics and Tesla's are for a large spectrum of people.
@@Muskar2 Nope. I base my opinion on what I see everyday. I see senior citizens (most of those are women) driving Tesla. The other group is young females. Fanboys think there is some great demand for EV’s but there is not….the hype comes from Fanboys that aren’t old enough to drive or cannot even afford a car so irrelevant.
SO MUCH FUN to watch. Kyle's driving enthusiasm is contagious 😄

Watched it, enjoyed it, and then 10 minutes in I realized this Shanghai M3 SR is the exact model, I'll be receiving in a few months. Excited now. Thanks.
This is how I look at it, SR is LFP and one motor, LR is NCA with 2 motors, and you can add 50 horsepowers to LR if you still have the money to spare ( $2,000 ) .. which come to the total of 400 Hp. The beauty of LR with AB ( acceleration boost ) , is not the drag race, it actually is on the freeway where you can climb the mountain road and pass semi truck like nothing else ... It is lots of more money from SR to LR , but it is well worth it, I had Model Y LR and Model 3 LR both add on AB, Life is changed ever since and I am 65 years , I thought I will have no life after , Cheer Ha Ha , Tesla Number 1 🤣. I was driving from Los Angeles to San Jose this weekend, on Model 3 LR, driving 80 to 90 MPH and only make one stop to supercharge, with 40% left when arrived, ( I started 100%, and recharge to 95% ) and get a prime steak for Lunch ( Harris Range ) , it was such a incredible drive .... 😀. Get a Long Range if you can afford it ..
@@JY-lg6ee would have gotten one had I lived in USA, but where I live (Israel) high taxes on cars bring base M3SR to $65,200 and base LR to $79,350. Since SR range good enough for me (I don't drive a lot and small country anyway), couldn't justify the LR, or even putting an extra $2,750 to get a different color than the standard white
Thanx for this vid. I really love my 2021 SR+ every day. Its the best overall daily car in the world. Range is sufficient and Power is more than you need.
Kyle was SCARING the sh!t out of everyone in that car!

Not really, one of them was browsing on the phone.
Such a fun video to watch, and a big thanks to Lars for allowing you to thrash it around the track!

I bought the Model 3 RWD with LFP in Canada when it was still cheap enough to qualify for incentives… so it was closer to $20k CAD difference between the Long Range. Super happy with it!
How long did you save up for it ?
Love my SR+ - great car. I have never seen one of your videos before so I liked your ongoing commentary while driving - subscribed.
Tks for taking us along. This was a great break from the world.
Thank you for this. Been trying to find a video where people actually talk about the driving dynamics of the RWD 3. It’s a car, not an appliance, how it drives is all that matters
we love our RWD LFP too, so efficient, so easy to drive, quiet and smooth (we did come from a Vauxhall astra diesel though)

Thank you for the news! I'm getting rid of my Opel Astra diesel as well, my RWD LFP comes in a month!
Lars is such a great guy. Had the pleasure meeting him and driving his imported first Model 3 in Switzerland.
that was me in the bmw m5 ring taxi :)
I remembered seeing a tesla full of people.
Amazing run. I’m convinced LiFP is the way to go For most electric vehicles

@@JY-lg6ee i think the OG is talking about the lfp battery having some lifetime and charging advantages as well as huge advantages environmentally such as lack of rare metal use, great for use by the majority of people from now into the future. We should almost enforce it through regulation. But I agree the other battery and cars perform even better that it's really enticing.
Love to see you doing some road tripping tests with a standard range+ when you are back in the states.
I’ve done the ring many times with different types of cars, slow and fast. It definitely looks like the LFP Tesla model 3 is very decent, even stock! That’s so cool!
I hired a model 3 SR for a couple of weeks. Test drove the performance as well. As an ever day car the SR is still alot of fun , probably more practical in my opinion.
I bought my Model 3 Performance for 50k € back in September 2021 and it's absolutely amazing!
One of my friends let me drive his Model 3 SR+ once and honestly ... the difference isn't too big. Only if you fully accelerate the car with a loaded battery. But you do that 3-4 times and then it gets boring.
So if you want to save money and the LR or Performance is out of your reach then just go for the standard Model 3. You definitely won't get disappointed!

50 K? Can you please share with us country of purchase?
@@evport1610 Germany. The standard price was 56k but you got a refund of 6k back in 2021 if you bought an electric car.
Not sure how you can miss almost twice the power and 4 wheel drive ? Must be an EV thing I suppose because it should make a hell of a difference 🤔
@@xaviergerard3697 The guy is nuts. the Performance is twice as fast.
That was awesome! Now I wanna take my performance around it
Nice steady drive Kyle , safe outcome assured.
I have this exact Tesla, and I'm amazed at the power and efficiency, and nearly shocked that some people think they need the performance edition! This car is more than enough for everyone, and any more power will just be overkill and wear your tires out.
Good to know. My son has a 2020 M3P and I just ordered a M3S tonight.
If it had the upgraded stereo I'd get the standard range no question. Here's hoping the next refresh gets the standard and long range stereos on par with each other.
i got this one and got used to the power very fast. as german with daily autobahn usage ...well... i want a plaid version of it XD
1:11 full charging daily is still worse for the lfp battery than doing it less e.g. weekly, which is definitely recommended due to calibration needs. the battery wants to be calibrated now and then so it understands its own capability, and it can handle full charges better than nac batteries. But still, avoiding a full charge every day will help maintaining more range over time. Anyway, as said charging full daily isn't as harmful as with the nac! Tesla's message is for the mainstream, apparently they believe people can't handle detailed information to act upon.
looked like a great time
I think that is great for 5 guys in it and still keeping up. If love to see M3 performance track mode doing this
Wow guys almost at 100k! Love your channel 🇦🇺
Nice video. That cars doing well, there’s at least 450kg of passengers in that car. For a single motor it’s pretty good.
I've owned the LFP model 3 SR+ for a year now here in Norway.
Really energy effective. Good in winter too.
Im in Canada and the only thing keeping me from buying RWD is driving in winter . Its been over 20 years since i had RWD. Hows your experience ?
@Larss70 For me, it works great. I drive over a mountain to get to my cabin, and it's no problem. I'm driving on studless tires. It's not the range or awd I'm missing. The audio system is the biggest drawback, in my opinion. The biggest advantage is the lfp battery with the low capacity drop over time.
Great video. Well done sir!
What fun! Good for one hard lap! Well done.
Just bought this car, so had so much fun watching this. Love the constant conversation while driving! Do we have any place to do anything close to this in the US? I used to take my bolt to the drag races, but what about a track? Thanks for this video
Has Kyle taken performance driving classes before? Seen a few videos where he seems quite skilled and confident behind the wheel. More than your average car reviewer.
He got trained by Misha.

@@kristelarabit3511 A Yoke steering played a significant part in Kyles Model S crashing recently.
A new definition of “Fully loaded” 😊
congrats on 100k subs👍
Very impressive drive there with a loaded car and the slowest model. I want one!
Order it, you won’t regret it. I took delivery of my M3 RWD a couple of months ago. Best car for the money IMO.
@@rajendra82a Oh if only. Have no money 😞
@@rajendra82a Ordered mine tonight. Canceled a model Y two weeks ago. Just a bit too much.
Hands up in the thumbnail...how so very creative!
Pretty amazing that the single motor and LFP pack can run with a lot of the cars on there. The M3 RWD really is the best all around EV for the money right now for most people, especially in the US where the M3 LR is $11k more and the MY starts at just shy of $20k more. The "Slower" charge rate is actually pretty close since the battery is smaller, you will have less degradation over time, and the LFP pack can take a lot of abuse. The only limitation is for very cold environments, LFP doesn't like the cold, but if you pre-heat the battery, its amazing.
Perfect for those in so cal… i have a 2022 m3 rwd
all true except degradation: you will most likely have more degradation with the SR+ precisely because the battery is smaller. simply means more cycles for the same amount of kWh. and more cycles equal more degradation. the bigger the battery and the lower the consumption the lower the degradation (not considering behavioural aspects)
@@tesla-spectre That's not true. The RWD is an LFP chemistry rated at ~4000 complete cycles compared to the 1500-2500 cycles of the 2170 cells. They will degrade much slower than the LR and Performance vehicles. The RWD LFP battery is the "million mile battery".
@@jasonfranciosa oh wow cool. did not know that. then indeed it is better ... 👍
LFP M3 owner here in NJ. I park in a driveway outside all year. Winter definitely takes more energy vs the summer, but as long as you can charge every 2-3 days (I drive around 60 miles a day) you'll be fine. Not to mention it's still fun to drive (love telling people "and this is the slow one!" when I drive them around in it lol)
Great! Saving up for one of these and waiting for the prices to edge back down a bit.
I can see why you did a run with 5 people in the car but I wish you had done a run with just the driver. Plus pop off the wheel covers which may have stopped the brake issue.
I'm new to your channel and I'm liking what I see
Wow! Really enjoyed watching you guys rip around! What a great (not so little) car!

I've got a M3 Performance on order, and this video has me wondering if I should have just went with the SR! Awesome car.
Na AWD performance is awesome. I have the lrawd with accel boost. Not quite the performance model but can run 3.7 0 to 60
Stay with your Performance 3. It never gets old. ;)
I just picked up the same model 3. I am so surprise about how well the handing it has. Feel like mid engine car with lower center of gravity. Almost zero roll in the corner. Suspension is just right for one maybe two people. Only complaint is the traction control is too strong. Still trying to figure out how to turn it off.
Great video! The sandwiched girl in the backseat is a trooper
That's what you like, don't ya!
Its a great car for the money for sure. Love mine (had since March). Of course on normal roads / driving (even spirited) brake overheating won't ever be a problem but would be interesting to see one go around without aero covers on, to see if it really makes any difference. I'm impressed that battery over heating doesn't seem to be a problem!

I drove my SR+ from Denmark to France and back in the weekend, much of it on Autobahn going as fast as traffic would allow me. And even though I often went 140->190->110 km/h in quick succession to pass people, with frequent hard braking and acceleration, there was no brake fade. I tried maximizing regen over brakes though, which benefits range but is suboptimal for racing, like on the ring. The power was slightly limited when going from 170km/h for a while and then stepping on it when finally getting an opportunity to pass but it wasn't very noticeable and passed away in seconds when going back down to
Great video! Will be really curious to see once they start shipping German made Teslas with the structural pack and the 2 castings, how the rigidity and weight saving will affect the performance.

Cool runnings! 👍🏼🥇👍🏼
Geez, this is such a fun video to watch. I felt like I was in the back seat.
What was really neat was the quietness at high speed.
That model 3 SRplus its amazing and the 325 hp is a faster electric car and i just love. Congratulations for this vídeo because is fantástic thank s 👏👏👏👌
Hey, I think the max weight is 2135kg. Car weights 1835 empty. Around 300kg allowed, so definitely the suspension was on the limit!
If only Sabine Schmitz were with us to do a true test! She is of course more missed by her family but the rest of us also really miss her cheerful demeanour. Thanks for the video.
Nice video thanks
7:40 - MIC SR+ has prismatic cells made by CATL not pouch cells.
Fabulous car for the price, beats most ice and ev's that are more expensive and cost more to fuel or charge. Wait till they get the 4680 cells in this in the future, then it will show all the other similarly priced cars the door!
I would buy a Renault Megan etech or a Inoiq 5 or 6
@@brunoheggli2888 no 1 pedal drive and the charge port position would rule out Megane for me.
The only problem is Tesla raises the price every few months. By the time 4680 cells make it to Model 3 RWD, it will be $55K.

Nice lap. I can smell the brakes from here. :-)
How do you get the brake temperature display?
Have you or Tom done a hwy range test onbthe lfp model?
I just took delivery Friday of the exact car in the U.S. and I must say that I am pleasantly surprised. I thought that it would feel like a major downgrade after having a model Y performance for a year, but it turns out that the TIRES are my only disappointment. The U.S. gets subpar tires for this car (I won't call out the brand) and I'm envious of the Michelin tires that Europe receives.
Thank you for the video and review of the car.
Coming from a Model Y performance, do you find the acceleration lacking on the Model 3? Or would you say that it’s still great and comparable to a dual motor LR car?
@@AdilZohrri I'll put it this way, the rear wheel drive LFP Model 3 is only around a second slower than my BMW e46 M3. I've never driven a dual motor long range, but the Performance Y was snappy and quicker than most production cars driving around. My current car, SR Model 3, is plenty for most people and does not disappoint...although I will probably go back to a Performance Y at some point.
@@jgthotel Performance Model 3 blows away the Performance Y. I've had both.
@@foam27 I know. I opted for the rwd model 3, which still has loads of power compared to most cars.
yea its the "cheapest" but its has the amazing LFP battery, the way faster AMD CPU and the new matrix headlights, honestly the durability, longevity and much user friendly LFP would sell me alone, and its still PLENTYY fast for daily use
I beat a mustang GT at full throttle up to 110km/h. The mustang is rated at 0-60 in 4.4 seconds but I guess that figure was for the manual because the auto couldn't catch me in the SR
This Battery actually likes it toasty.
Cold weather is the worst part, but even then you get full power.
And it charges so well. I own the previous lfp version with the 55kWh pack and it charges with 120kw at 50% and it drops unter 100kw at 62%. Often too fast to take a pee 😄.
That's interesting.
I have the 2021 LFP Model 3, which should be the same one you have. But it doesn't charge very fast in China with either V3 or V2.
It only peaks at 120-125kW for a minute or two, then drops to around 100kW.
@@cachem11 oh wow. Is that common for the lfp in china? Mine has the peak at 166kW and the new pack with the 60kWh battery peaks at 170kW.
I assume you charge it to 100% sometimes to calibrate it? Or grid limit? 🤷♂️
@@DeChris89 It's more likely a charger limit. LFP Model 3s and Ys in China all have similar charging speeds as mine. We have a Chinese standard GB DC plug on our cars, so maybe the current is limited.
The supercharger here is cheaper though. Average US$0.3 per kWh during the day and $0.15 during the night.
i have the same model 3, I believe they aren't pouch cells but prismatic cells.
thats so funny to see. I live near Nürburgring and I know guys who go there for years with their pimped bmw's. But now seeing someone overtake them in a fully family-loaded EV is just a funny thing
Has nothing to do with this video in particular, but in Gothenburg (Sweden) they are testing wireless charging for taxis. Might be worth checking out?
They say Tesla is not really leaps and bounds ahead in the automated systems; but that display is just showing an amazingly accurate digital representation of reality - its not perfect but it a rational person should be able to wisely use it to improve their driving experience. My lane assist is useful in the same way, but I would say it is not "understanding or seeing" the world perfectly .. and even if it was I had no way to gauge its understanding except when it say it can see the left or right or both lane makers and I still do not know what it is see and take it on trust. I don't know, that virtual world on the Tesla seems to be good feedback.
Owning a SR+ made in US, best car for the buck. Especially when it was at 36k. So much efficiency. Fun to drive. Enough power to have fun and safe drive.

Maybe it will sound stupid, but I have issues in understanding which is considered the slowest Tesla of them all. I want to buy one, unfortunately Tesla Romania offers just Long Range models for test drives and, therefore I could not test the Model 3. The basic one. And on their site, the acceleration 0-100 km/h is in 6.1 seconds. So, is that what you have tested? Or was it another model?
Well, Elon claimed that they don't make boring cars...and I guess he wasn't kidding - even for the low spec ones.
Fun video.. but I question having FIVE people in the car on a track without helmets while overheating the brakes.
When was that video recorded? 46k for new Tesla in Germany?,🤯 You are super lucky if you buy 2-3 yo in Ireland for this price
I drove a taycan over the weekend and maybe im biased but I was so happy getting back into my model 3 after my vacation. It drives so awesome.
😂😂😂😂😂
Nothing like a test with the Brady bunch.
You should try this with the SR+ LFP with the 55kWh battery MIC that has the performance drive unit!
Are you talking about the 3D6 motor?
220Kw?

What goes unnoticed to some is that Tesla doesn't advertise the difference in power of the motors over time. In the Owner's manual, under Specifications -> Subsystems -> Motor Specifications, there's current five motors listed. Ranging from 137kW (183hp) to 220kW (295hp). Quite significant differences. I feel lucky that I got a 202kW (3D1 motor) for 4% less cost than the new 194kW one. And I have the tow hitch as well. What I don't have is the heatpump and automatic liftgate on the back, but for me it's a perfect fit. Regardless, my point is that it takes some know-how (that the sales people usually don't have) to tell them apart and different cars of the same model are not so apples to apples as one might think.
Try the older 2019 sr+ with the P rear motor. It is much faster. (Especially above 100km/h, like 15s faster to 220)
Hell yeah, I got the 2019 model 3 and it's fun as hell to drive. Quick, nimble and quick stopping power for a relatively heavy car.
I’m driving one currently…too bad I leased it in 2019 and it’s gone next month. I ordered a LR to buy this time.
@@briannedry5346 True, also lighter. Still love it. Friend has a 2021 SR+ with better range but it is significantly slower
@@nicka2256 LR is always the upgrade:)
Nice video, shame adverts KILL IT !!
is this the 2022 version that’s 5.8 seconds?
