I have a 22 Model 3 Standard Range and I can assure you that the range is sufficient for any long drive because of the Tesla supercharger network. My wife has a Subaru SUV but we take my car on road trips. Stops are convenient and fast, and there is always an upscale convenience store to stock up.
My car is more comfortable, it has better features, it mostly drives for you.
By the way, you almost never interact with the screen while driving. Everything operates using voice control, and most features are set to auto.
Seating position, steering wheel position, mirrors, driving preferences, easy entry, and more are stored in a driver profile that is unique for each driver.
Headlights, including brights are set to auto.
Wipers as well.
The car unlocks as you approach it, locks as you walk away and the mirrors fold up.
You say “set wiper speed to 2” or “play Beyoncé on Spotify”
You can turn on the climate using your watch just before you leave the restaurant.
Great review as I'm planning to go electric, I'm considering Tesla and the Equinox Ev as well. Just waiting for more information on the Equinox Ev.
I love when all of the folks who don't know nothing about electric cars and never even drove one of them start talking about "problems"
Great sports sedan. I live in Nevada and the batteries are noted for shortened service life in high temperatures?
Great review, spot on. It's time to go electric. Last year 21% of California's new car registrations were battery electric vehicles. Tesla is by far the leader for a reason.
I don’t know if you live where you’re filming but you’re in my hood. Maybe one day we could colab😊. I’m due to buy a new car soon and have been using your videos to help with my research. Keep up the great work. It’s appreciated 🤗
Great review and explanation of the different batteries. I took one for a test drive last week and was blown away at how easy it is to get used to the 1 pedal driving, the screen and the indicator buttons on the steering wheel. I would highly recommend people who are a bit sceptical as I was, to just take a test drive.
Own it. Love it. My advice: try it. (Stalks are no problem at all after your brain learns new habit.)
Do you believe that even in Canada the RWD is overall a better choice over FWD as long as you have winter tires?
Thanks sherry, very honest and to the point review. A review on the new performance model 3 would be nice too. Dr.A.
5/1/24 - Hybrid to HEV are good ideas
However, ideally they are sound techno
Does not make up for the true disposablilty of vehicles today
Especially the battery
Then as you stated the cold will drain the battery plenty quickly
For now I'll stick to aspirated vs EV
Though eventually I will consider HEV as more time goes by
One thing not over the moon about is the turbo anything
Thank you once again for your great reports
What about your views on used tesla ?
I have a 2018 Honda civic and as reliable my car is I think I might want a Tesla only because I don’t wanna continue paying for a gas and oil changes. I could be saving so much more money.
Hybrid works better for my needs.
I live in a small town in central Ohio and have been been surprised by the number of Teslas I’ve seen recently.
Still not going full EV for a while. A long while. But this looks a lot better. Maybe we could smooth off a few sharp edges when C Truck gets a refresh. If.
I don’t have a charger at home or work. But I have super charger within 5-10minutes. Now, can I rely purely on super chargers without degradation of battery? 😅
you can, just charge up to 80% max
Depends on what type of batteries you have... Standard range with LFP batteries charges to 100% every time and there's almost no degradation during long period of time
@@michalsalajonly dual motor... Standard range is supposed to be charged to 100% every time and there's no degradation
@@MarkoMarkovina nobody ever is charging at superchargers to 100%, it's too slow. At home, yes. There is still degradation, but slower
@@MarkoMarkovina But can I super charge all the time?
Of course, most people charge at home but here in South Florida chargers are all over the place, so yes, the only EV I'd consider.
The depreciation is really depending on the price you pay. If you pay $10k markup on a Toyota, the resale value is going to hurt you too. On the other hand, resale is not that much of an issue if you bought Tesla when price is low with inventory discount and rebate.
2024 Buick Enviista Avenir...less expensive, hatchback, good looks.
I just hate the fact that there's no dashboard or HUD on the windshield at least
its not exactly safe monitoring your vehicle speed with the infotainment in the center
Even the man himself had to divert his eyes right for half a sec numerous times, please stay safe out there!
I would strongly consider it but the absence of a sun shade and having to interact with a distractingly huge screen just to select drive mode are deal breakers for me.
Hsve you gone on a test drive ??? Drive it before you make up your mind. You will absolutely love the car.
How do I know 🤔 because I took delivery of mine last month the reengineered M3 LR. The car is gorgeous, it is a beast in its own right beyond quick, very comfortable, quiet. Puts a smile on my face every time I get in the car. The minimalism and tech are amazing. Build quality is great.
Two address your concerns
I agree about not having a sunshade what did I do I went on Amazon got ones with built in clips and done much better and cooler.
Second issue you have having to switch gears on screen a non issue really how many times are you actually switching gears ??? The car has a beta auto park feature works 99 percent of time but that is why it's beta. It uses camera to determine if you should go forward or reverse out of park. Let's address the elephant in the room. Removing of signal stalks non issue. I love it !!! Give it two or three weeks at most at you won't even miss them I know I don't. It's no big deal. The Regen braking is another awesome aspect of an EV and Tesla implements it the best.
Hope this helps. I am sticking with Tesla. Least go for a test drive.
@@cellman1829 How will you block out the sun in the Hot summers?
@@cellman1829Tesla isent bad by any means but it exist better Ev and more reliable brands out there but it's still a good Ev just not the best but might be the best for it price though since the better Ev r more expensive beside the Hyundai ioniq 6 yes you get 400 HP in model 3 but bs 320 but if I would go for a Ev it would be the BMW i4 m50 for sure it's a better Ev but it also looks much better
@@cellman1829Having to reach a center screen while driving is a no-no for me. On top of that, Tesla added salt to the injury by not including a driver display with some gauges or quick info.
@@cellman1829 No, I haven't driven one but I don't see how doing so would alter the problems that I mentioned. When they first came out, Tesla brought a Model S to me for a test drive. Of course, its performance was very impressive. But going beyond that and looking at the many shortcomings in both design and construction was more than enough to keep my wallet in my pocket.
Nice reivew. I learned a few things. My 2012 Honda CRV is starting to show its age. Looking for an EV your video helped me. I am not a Musk fan, but I need to buy the best car for my money.
All these channels and talks about eletric... i would love to see them toss in the average cost for insurances. I know it can vary but that would be even more helpful info.
I had Allstate before and it was about the same as I paid before for my Genesis after accounting for the higher cost. Now I have Tesla insurance and it is around $60 per month, however I have a safety score of 98.
What about the High Performance Model?
Can you review Chinese vehicle BYD and other electric vehicles
I pass the kool aid and stick with V6 or I6 manual till death
This is toys for the richs or tools for the sect of planet savers.
price says different
So latest news is Telsa just fired it's super charger network team, about 500 employees in all. Wonder if that's something we, as consumers, should be concerned about?
not at all
Your reviews just keep getting better. The improvements of the Model 3 should open buyers to the EV option. Thanks for bringing clarity to the question.
I think I’ll stick with my 2023 Rav4 Prime Xse Tech.
Consumer Reports point out other flaws not mentioned in this well done video.
The CS review is bizarre. The guy can’t figure out how to turn over his hand to open the door.
@@mandelm2001And it’s so easy too - just use your left hand if getting in the left side and right hand for the right side
As long as bidumb is pushing them I am not interested
👍
We need EVs with 500-600 miles range on a single charge.
@@levenkay4468 no EV has 500-600 miles range..max 300-350. In winters it will drop to 250 and after 3 years of usage the range will drop to 200 miles.
@@levenkay4468 I'm talking about the range on a single charge.
you absolutely don't need that. Most people always stop after 250 miles
@@michalsalaj Stopping is different and finding a charging station and waiting to get charged is different.
@@Gopinathk17 car finds charging station. You stop, start charging and can go to restroom or eat etc
The biggest problem with Tesla is the owners and the CEO
lol
“…full self driving… which you don’t get much value for the extra money”
lmao have you even used fsd in 2024?
So, Elon just fired the entire supercharger unit at Tesla….Now what?
he will hire new people. He has done that many times
That's a good feature being able to play video games while driving.
does not work while driving, just when parket - while recharging
I have read that tires only last about 20, 000 klms. That means from normal ICE tires (based on conservative driving) where you don't have to change them until 60, 000 to 80, 000 klms. That is a huge draw back for the average driver. These cars are hidden money pits. Not to mention your sitting on top of a possible time bomb.
Well, I've got 25000 miles on my Model Y's OEM tires, and they've still got another 15000 miles' worth of tread; that puts them in your 60 to 80 megameter ballpark, I'd say. And Consumer Reports drew an interesting conclusion recently on how much of a "money pit" Teslas are; check it out.
It’s getting really old listening to “reviewers” complaining about no stalks. They all do and yet Tesla owners do not . What does this mean? Probably that lazy reviewers are not willing to go through a learning curve ?
they need to say something negative
I would never consider one; I don't care for the touch screen or lack of longevity. I live in rural Pennsylvania nearest public charger is 31 miles from me. As they exist now I believe they are not fit for purpose.
Well, don't give up hope. Someday, electricity might get connected even to YOUR home.
@@levenkay4468 Remarkable response in Orbisonia Pa we had electric soon after the turn of the last century, including the farm. Due mostly because of the efforts of the EBTRR. I like tech my 2001 Honda Insight stick I sold with 470k miles never needed anything but one clutch, brake pads three 12 volt batteries and normal service. Our electric is generated by fossil fuels and many Tesla supercharges are diesel powered. My grandfather was a mechanical engineer for the EBTRR and ran the shops. Electric generation creates it's own carbon footprint; but, not likely in your backyard. However, I can supply plans for small coal powered generators, super chargers. They are quite efficient since little is lost in transmission lines. One could charge many electric vehicles. Soft coal is about $285 a ton, you could fire it twice a day. The neighbors would bless you for all the nice smoke, smells and children could play on your slag piles. EV's are not the answer, they are based in half truths and create more environmental harm then the problem they are to address!
you don't have electricity at home?
@@levenkay4468 Hum, sounds like too many thumbs and little brain activity! I wasn't addressing home charging here; it us access to public charging while out and about.
@@wayneott5990 By my lights, you certainly WERE addressing home charging, because unless something prevents you from charging at home, the "31 miles to public charger" hardship is almost certainly irrelevant to the suitability of an EV. Do you drive more than 200 miles each day?
How much will that car be worth once the battery is depleted and won't take a full charge . Zip
The same as when an ICE engine or transmission needs to be rebuilt or replaced.
That car's battery is depleted ALREADY; it will only take maybe 99.997% of the charge it could when it was new(er). Thing is, you can't notice a loss that small, compared to the variations that the dozen other factors governing range impose. Of course, over time, the loss accumulates. After a hundred thousand miles or so, it may amount to ten percent. At that point the car may only go seven times as far as the average US daily commute requires, instead of eight. The car's value will have diminished, sure. But not to nothing.
10:23 The Tesla Autopilot system received a 'poor' rating in the inaugural IIHS partial driving automation safeguard rating test. Contrary to Shari's claim of it being 'one of the best autonomous driving systems', it got the lowest rank in the IIHS test, while other systems got 'acceptable' and 'good' ratings.
The IIHS rating is a joke. Higher score is given to cars require more human intervention and control. It is the opposite of autonomous driving. Tesla FSD is the closest to full autonomous driving. I don’t have to intervene not even once for my daily commute and the drive from my home in edmonton to a Calgary hotel.
The problem with Tesla vehicles is the over reliance of the touch screen. No buttons, no shifter buttons/stick, no physical turn signal or wiper handles. You can’t do a turn signal unless you go through the touchscreen. That is distracting for the driver and an annoyance for the one behind.
Wrong, they’re on the steering wheel.
Accidents waiting to happen and no physical shifters/ turn signal indicators will add to someones demise when the software in the screen malfunctions. all software has malfunctions no matter the brand.
This Tesla's "cost cutting" car design will eventually become noncompliant to some countries such as Australia's Design Rules. Hence, it will be banned at some point...this is no difference to using mobile phone while driving
The performance model 3 is the best car to review. Its Tesla’s best car right now IMO.
There a torch button on the steering wheel for voice commands. The turn signals are also on the steering wheel. Takes a couple of days and your use to it. ⚡️
Not to mention elmo
It's still not a very impressive vehicle. I drove a Model Y last year, and other than the acceleration, there was nothing special about it.
Dislike the touch screen. Another big problem is this vehicle weighs more than 20% more than a contemporary vehicle. This means 20% more tire wear….especially if you punch it. This means at a minimum all electric vehicles, including the model 3, produce at least 20% more tire wear than conventional vehicles. The consequence of this is 20% more micro plastic pollution, most all of which ends up in the ocean. The vast majority of micro plastic pollution comes from vehicle tires. It is not your water bottle. Imagine what 18 wheelers will do when they weigh 40 to 60% more than current vehicles. For every electric vehicle added to the roadway we are looking at a minimum of 20% increase in micro plastics pollution. Not good at all.
WHAT "contemporary vehicle" (and are you sure you meant, 'contemporary' == 'from the same time'? As in, Tesla Model 3 vs. Chevy Suburban, both model year 2024?) are you worried about? Tire wear is strongly a function of how much of the car's acceleration one uses. Surely, someone with your profound interest in minimizing particulate pollution would have the discipline to go easy on the accelerator.
20% is not true, Model 3 is almost the same weight than BMW 3. Nonissue
Stupid car design, no head-up display to show essential info. You have to look at the center screen to see the current speed, turn left, or change the temperature.
with autopilot, you can do that safely
I think it's ugly inside and out. Where I live buying an EV is simply not worth it unless you drive 3000 kms a month . Buy a hybrid
Boycott Tesla
