Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus: The Good and Bad
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 มิ.ย. 2021
- After one year of ownership, I go over the good and bad of my Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus.
Overall, I recommend the Model 3 Standard Range Plus. I think for its price, you get a lot of features and perks such as autopilot, 260mi range, great interior, entertainment center, dashcam & sentry mode, low cost to change and many more. Although there are some bad things about this car I rate it an overall 8 out of 10.

Your A/C Problem... After you run your A/C. Before you shut off the car, plan a few minutes before you park. Run the fans without the A/C. This will dry out the wetness and help eliminate the mildew smell.
Be careful with the pressure washer on the edges of the wrap. Very cool looking Model 3.
My 2021 SR+ has auto dimming side mirrors. I think there was only a short subset in 2020 that didn’t have them equipped but all the new ones should have them. Spot on about the footwell lighting and fog lights though, super annoying.
Thank you for your video! I learned a lot. I wanted to ask you, because I’m concerned about the RWD, how does it drive in the rain? I live MD and get all 4 seasons! Also, if I buy a used one, u think I might get some credit or does it apply only to new car purchases? Thanks again!
I notice phantom braking when on the interstate and the car enters a bridge or a steep incline. Other than these, I have never experienced this issue. I think the car isn't sure if the incline is a wall or the bridge is a fence. It will slam on brakes to prevent collisions. However, it recognizes the issue and releases the brake very quickly. The only way you can be rear-ended is if someone was tailgating you. The experience is very alarming. If I'm a bit exhausted, which is when I use autopilot, it fills me with fear and wakes me up! lol. At this point, I do the driving.
Hello, I forgot to use your link when I ordered mine I just did that yesterday. Is there another way I can still use your referral?
Thanks for the review! Really awesome job
I am curious, is the shiny plastic interior prone to scratching by the smallest atoms? My Prius has the piano key black plastic and it's the easiest thing on earth to scratch.
P.S. my 72 Mustang is louder than crap due to the compression on the motor 🤣 now I feel like I was neglected as a child
Finally someone using a Dark Mode on the screen. I wasn't sure if it existed.
yes! I have it change automatically so after sunset it will change to dark mode. You prob dont see it a lot on youtube since most are filming in the day and dark mode is harder to see stuff on camera
@@TeslaPhotographer Can it be set to dark mode 24/7?
@@EdgarCorona Yes it can
@@TeslaPhotographer I hate the emergency avoidance feature, cannot handle narrow, windy UK roads, comes on all the time and is dangerous. Also, head rests are in a really bad fixed position, small detail but almost enough for me not to buy another Tesla, painfully uncomfortable on long journeys. I'm standard height 6 foot so cannot understand why they are fixed and so badly designed. With kids cannot leave them in the car and pop into a shop, will set off alarm and also worries me as they cannot get out if there is say a battery fire as doors lock. Also, I sat in the back to tend to my son to realise I couldn't open the door (child lock) so had to climb into the front. Child lock should come on only when travelling not when parked.
Thank you this video was very helpful 👍
Hi
The wrap on your car, is it matt satin black by Avery Dennison?
I bought it 3 days ago & now had a chance of watching your video 😂
Awesome vid.
I'm new to the electric, new company car list is coming and I'm seriously considering a Model3 - basically for the BIK (benefit in kind tax UK) surely this is going to save me some....... I also have a company file card via SHELL I also pay a fixed amount for that....
If Any UK drivers in this car can let me know...
I've heard about pre-warm batteries...what does this mean?
Charging from say 10% or less does this make a difference how charging works?
Thanks for this video, helps alot
Thanks for the review, especially the review of suspension firmness, as you said something that really needs to be checked to confirm if suitable. Also thanks for the heads up re the AC smell.
Dude all performance cars have tight suspension to support the the abuse. The AG smell is just lack of maintenance and lazyness.
In my 2017 chevy volt premier , the air started to stink as well. I never knew a possible reason as to what the smell could be but that makes sense
Where is the referral code you speak of and who do you turn it into ??
I’m getting one in November is the sound system good
Are the cons still applied to the 2021 model 3 sr?
I have a performance, but I’m in a loaner standard range plus and it’s actually really fast top end. I’m surprised at how fast it is
What is that color I know it’s black but I haven’t seen that kind of black paint on other teslas in the streets

Taylor, Great review. How do you rate the M3 OEM Continental tires? 9 Months with our M3 and just put a set of Michelin Pilot Sport AS 4’s on. Looking forward to a better ride.
I had the 19 continentals on my dual motor before changing to 20” rims with pilot sport 4s. I really hated those continentals and I don’t think they last long at all! You’ll love the 4s. Better gripping tire and they last much longer
Regarding the terms and conditions associated with this car? Genuine question is there any mention of geo fencing?
Where do I find the referral code on here?
Hello, the day you posted this video I took delivery of my M3LR.
Quick question, where did you get the pressure washer? Do you recommend it? Thank you!!
Hey my pressure washer is a gas one it’s great but it’s breaking down pretty fast so I don’t really recommend it. If you want a setup that I also use it’s
Powerwasher: amzn.to/35BUSds
Foam Cannon + Cannon Soap: amzn.to/2WwHG4c
I also put the foam cannon in there too
@@TeslaPhotographer Thank you, it's hard finding a pressure washer that has recently good reviews. I got the foam cannon and a regular hose its ehh okay. Thank you again!
Taylor,I asked you once before about all of those fishing poles in your garage and you said they were yours. There are a couple of fishing channels out there with hundreds of thousands of subscribers I think you should do Tesla and fishing build a custom little fish box in your trunk you would get so many new subscribers from other genres.Southern California is one of the best places to fish off the shore. Redondo Beach king harbor to the north end to the south. Do you ever think about that?
Tap the gas? it electric right?
Hey, is the Bluetooth problem with music playing only with standard range or you must Tesla’s if you know, how often.
Great video btw
Only in my standard range. I’ve heard of this issue in other people’s standard range too
Okay thanks for the clarification.
What about the lack of way points in the Nav system. That’s my biggest frustration, and another one that is so easily fixed. I know Elon has now said ‘we’ll do waypoints’ but we should already have this functionality.
great review. Thank you
What is your guys opinions on the LR vs SRP. I'm debating on which one but I'm worried how far SRP is actually going to get me
please comment on your daily driving and weather situations in your area! We cant give a good recc of no info ;)
Our SR3 says 244 at 100%
Real range on a road trip is around 200 miles with most of the driving on cruise control
I notice that on ordinary urban roads, my Model 3 will phantom brake if a parked car is even slightly overlapping my lane. However, if I am in a line of moving traffic, it doesn't tend to phantom brake - as if it's focussed on the car ahead and takes it's cue from that. Either way, it's very frustrating and downright frightening for passengers if you're not expecting it!
I’m closing a deal on this exact model 2021 with FSD included package for 26k - 2 years later and your statement about this car for 25k came true! And even with FSD! 😊 such a blessing
So great to hear! Happy for you!!
Great Detail review. Loved it . I believe Model 3 2021 has auto dimming headlights though!
He meant to say side dimming mirrors
Yes you’re correct thank you for clarifying :)
how greatly will the range get affected when it comes to radio use or charging a cellphone while driving
Next to nothing, the battery drives a 1.5 tonne car can keep a screen on. Only thing that really affects range is ac/heater
@@thesketchy9669 amd sentry
I love how right after you spoke about how you wanted your Tesla to stand out from others, you comment on how the driver of the loud car is seeking attention.
Visual looks is a whole different thing than an assault with sound. Visual you can just look away, audio you cannot avoid.
I wonder if the phantom breaking and slow acceleration is because your car is using radar? Or is Tesla vision activated in a car with radar (I assume your car still has the radar)
People without the radar are getting more phantom braking now.
Did the 2020 Std range plus get a 263 Miles upgrade from 250?
Please let me know. Thank you
How far can this car get you on a full charge?
The fresh air filters (pollen filters) need to be changed at least every two years in any car and usually it's recommended to be changed every year. So it's no wonder if it starts to smell and the ventilation doesn't work as intended if you keep using the expired filters.
Facts! And if he never changed it in a gas car, it means whoever serviced the vehicle regularly took care of it..
How do I view video? It’s pitch black
Do you still have it ?
Is it an option to have the screen in dark mode all the time?
Yes it is
Haha my name is Taylor too! I’ve seriously been considering getting a model 3 standard or long range, and putting it on Turo/Uber Eats. 🤔
So autopilot is standard? I read that it’s a monthly subscription? Is that correct?
Nope only fsd is a subscription. Right now all cars get autopilot free
Great video
I thought Tesla fixed the smelly AC problem with a update? They have the fan running a little bit longer than the AC to dry out the moisture supposedly. But Must not be fixed if it’s still happening to you
The longer running fan doesn’t help me when my garage is hot and humid. Especially after driving in the rain.
@@redline4824 o well
Is the sr+ fast enough ? Do you still get that woah feeling in this car ?
Great question! It does feel good launching at lower speeds. So slamming on the accelerator at 0 feels good but flooring it at 60+ you don’t feel much. The acceleration at low speeds does feel good though! But definitely not crazy like the long range or performance
@@TeslaPhotographer Totally agreed. And when you're already on the highway you don't really need the "uumf"-acceleration, just enough to perform any overtaking which it does no problem.
The response time and acceleration is still way better than any ice car, even on the highway (SR+ owner)
@@redline4824 ok thank you I’m 18 and I just don’t know the sr+ makes sense for me financially but I’m young and you know how that is more for showing off ahaha
@@prestigeshineautospaOf course it all depends on your financial situation, but you're probably correct that a Model 3 is out of your pricerange. I'd suggest getting a used car (EV if feasible, otherwise ICE) first for a couple of years and maybe the Tesla "Model 2" will be available by then. Just a suggestion
Phantom Breaking happened to me yesterday on my way home from delivery, scared the shit out of me! Then just chalked it up to the tesla vision, thanks for sharing!
Is there a physical key in case I forget my phone?
There’s two physical cards.
We're you ever tempted with a Leaf Plus or Bolt for low 20s vs. the 40 for the SR+ for a daily driver?
I didn’t really consider any other ev. Last year when I got the sr+ there weren’t really any good ev options other than Tesla
Tesla only one
He has stealth ppf on this too. Dang I love it
3m satin black vinyl wrap :)
my 2021 sr+ has auto diming mirrors
When a guy complains about a engine roaring, the soy is exposed. This guy has technology issues and anger management problems. We have had none of these problems after years of ownership on all models.
i travel 130 to 150 miles per day , is the model 3 standard range plus enough for me?
it would be dependent on different factors. How much you juice the pedal, how fast you are going, and if you would get the at home charger installed or if there was a supercharge near you. If you have a supercharger near you, I think it would do the job.
I think it would do the job without a doubt but you'll be low on the range or charging too high %s every day. If you can afford the long-range option it would be a much safer and easy option for you. This recommendation was only given from the small info you provided*
“If this crow doesn’t shut up. Man I’m gonna pull out a 22” 😂
8:38 phantom breaking: I think it tends to do this at the same location.
I think it is a coding/algorithm error, and/or bad road/google-maps data.
This is actually an easy problem for Tesla engineering team to detect and address -- aka track the locations where "phantom-breaking" frequently occur and check the source/input terrain data (from google/etc). There's probably bad source-data.
I drive a 2020 mustang gt500 on the weekends and a Tesla for my daily commuter did I lack attention as kid..
how did you get 2,500 check?
im curious to know this too
still waiting.
Recorded horizontally:)
Great video!! Love the .22 comment lol
By the way, the crow is the smartest bird on earth
(I hate um)
You said it cost you around $42k but also said you had autopilot which is a $10k addition?
Just looked at my purchase agreement. It looks like auto pilot was free at the time but I paid 5000 more for enhanced auto pilot. None of this would apply now as auto pilot is totally free with the option of fsd only. And SSD is now a subscription if you want it to be
Fsd*
Dang, I just bought this same year and model and paid 43k. Used. Only had 11k miles. I feel like I got a decent deal.
Wow…I got my used 2020 model 3 SR+ with 24k miles for $35,400 from Tesla web in mid Dec 2022
I might buy one for $31K tomorrow with 17K miles. Clean title, 2 owner, no accidents. Even though it’s a really good deal, here I am watching this video hesitant on the decision.
Dude you paid too much~~~ I just got mine 2020 standard + last week for $35000 ish~~
@@blakebenke9340you should wait till the end of the year or next year~~~ there’s a 7500 tax write off~~~
They thumbs down cause he’s honest smh
Prius AC is wack too. Took 10 years for it to start smelling tho.
Hahahahaha. I love that comment about the person driving the loud car. You got me subscribed.
What 22 is he gonna pull out😮
25k Tesla is called a bolt
I just want to say that Bluetooth needs to (safely) step its game up or a different technology needs to be used. There's not a single Bluetooth device I own (and I must have owned about a dozen of them over the past decade) that doesn't struggle to connect at random times for unknown reasons. We use Bluetooth to get in our homes, our workplace and our cars, etc. It's not just for headphones and game controllers anymore.
Definitely, like you said half the time my Bluetooth won’t even connect to a speaker
Love ur reaction to that loud car😂
I hate that crap, too. We have a lot of bubbas here in TX.
I leave my Tesla app running all the time per Tesla. I no longer have this issue.
My base model 2016 golf has heated seats. 😂
If he doesn’t tell the truth tesla won’t fix this stuff. He’s not lying
Why’re you judging the loud car owner when seconds before that you were just talking about how you had to make your Tesla stand out more..? You’re absolutely right in some cases but it’s a lifestyle for many others. Otherwise great video, hope to see more soon and the car looks beautiful!
Oh I’m all into exhaust and all that. I’m not into it being so ridiculous that I can be heard a block away. That’s all And thank ya!!
The loud car owner is projecting all kinds of sounds into people's homes and its basically noise pollution for everyone who doesn't like unreasonably loud exhaust systems.
Noise pollution ain't the same as visual flair
11:27
Your car is jealous.
Christine.
Bro he said if this crow does not shut up I’m am about to pull it a 22
😱👌
This is a 2020 model?
Yes July 2020
If that crow doesn’t shut up I’m gonna pull out a 22😂😂😂
Wtf phantom braking? Death trap
Liked the video just for calling out the ricer lol
"I just did a few things to make it stand out a bit more"
Literally 10 seconds later
"Someone who drives a car like that was really lacking attention as a child and has some making up to do and wants everyone to look at them"
Irony at it's best!
Don't judge people's taste too much now mate. I have loved fast loud sportbikes, sports cars and even boring Subaru Foresters. Now I'm just months to weeks away from a Tesla. Taste for me has changed but don't deny people their joys because it's not your cup of tea ❤️
are you blinking morse code? should I be concerned?
I don't think Tesla's are the right car for you. Perhaps consider something to suit you better. Something ugly, boring and non exciting.
Are you you or your brother
I am taylor lol
I am playing around my man,I do enjoy the video with both of you guys. Did you guys do anything in sane growing up twin related
damn, all those loud folks hahaha
Hahahah
LOL this guy gets mad a lot
Here for the jokes lmfao Tesla was cool too
A person that drives a nice car with a gasoline engine lacks attention and are trying to stand out and be seen? Coming from a guy talking in front of a camera about his car
He’s doing it on a video sharing platform. You go to TH-cam to watch people talk about things. You don’t go to the streets to hear people rev their loud engines.
This was right after he said he had to modify it so he could stand out
I hate those noisy exhausts too!!! Omfg!!!! Like, whyyyyyyyyy?
Just get a Corolla. The Taliban love them too. 🤣🤣
Nah dude, they love Hilux , the can’t carry a ton of weapons on a Corolla 🙂
40 to 70 dollars cost a month to charge? BS! I live in California, my home has solar panels and my bill to charge 4 times a week for a month is over 350.00.
I don't think most people would be charging their car 4 times a week though...
That’s how much I pay in my Mustang GT 💀
BUY A PORSCHE LOL
The car in the background was a total attention seeker.
Dude just a little noise from car and bird relax.
This man is mad about some guy who drives a nice loud car nobody says how g a y you look driving a Tesla lol
