When you forget, $35K in 2024 is actually much much less than $35K in 2016. The Model3 has achived what it had set out to do
yep that's correct inflation is a bitch
I feel the same about my salary...
@@DeLorean4that hit home
+ it's a better car
It's $39,990 though.
Sounds like Carl really wants to do a tear-down of the new model 3, and I'm here for it.
No nono... Cybertruck first...
@@teodor4ik183 They already started the tear-down of the Cybertruck, but so far no plans to do a tear-down of the model 3.
@@teodor4ik183agreed
Surely they have to tear down this car, it is Tesla's second best selling vehicle after the Y after all, and a lot of competitors are going to want to see what they have done to achieve the improvements in the car's NVH, cost reduction, innovations, etc.? The Cybertruck by comparison is a relatively niche vehicle (albeit with its own interesting 'under the skin' innovations. I am dying to see what they have improved on here, hoping they've utilised all the learnings from the Y and gone even further!
@@vinumcopia9850 I believe Sandy said they are tearing down new M3, how could they not? I suspect this has been recorded some time ago.
Want to see more of Carl, he is so clear and calming.
And he doesn’t yap
💯!!!!!!!!!!
@@abcabc-eu4ppbasically everyone except Sandy doesn’t yap
That’s what I was thinking! Great presenter
At the end of the day . . .
I love Carl. So down to earth, knowledgeable and clearly spoken. I always wonder why I watch videos about what he covers, it sounds dull. But he presents it in a very digestible and interesting manner.
Couldn't agree more!
Listening to Carl is like listening to an Abrams tank sing lullabies.
Fantastic video presented by a well spoken and knowledgeable fellow!
Thank you!
@@MunroLive you are most welcome! Keep up the good work.
Saw it was Carl, immediately clicked. As always well done.
After less than a week with my new M3+, I like it even better each time I drive it! My 'Day 1' M3 was the best car I have ever had in many decades of driving and the only one that I kept for over three years. This new one is significantly more refined and even, perhaps sophisticated. There are many small things, like the magnetic catches on the glovebox and center console lid, the smoother and quieter ride, to the pleasing 'thunk' of the doors that contribute to it being a vehicle that is greater than the sum of its parts. All the good things of the original are there, only better!
That is a well-crafted comment. It can seem lonely out there being among the few who take the time to speak in well thought out complete sentences.

How do you manage the indicators during a turn?
Totally agree with your commnets 100%! My new M3 is fantastic for the cost and fresh clean look - inside and out! At first I thought the turn signals and wipers would be a problem but I have to admit, I like it much better on the steering wheel! Sure, it took me a day or so to get use to it but it really is so much easier than traditional. That is what I like about Tesla, nothing is traditional! Great review and comments! TY
@@GBOAC You are supposed to put turn signals on before you turn to alert other drivers to what you are going to do. Once you are turning, they know, but didn't have a warning.
@@nobrien1 Obviously, but while driving on a roundabout, you are first turning in the opposite direction, left, when ultimately you need to signal right to leave the roundabout. Same when nearing an intersection right after a sharp turn, or need to pull over.
Carl is the guy for interiors
Quality
Thanks for your accurate analysis based on wide-knowledge!
Glad it was helpful!
3:00 you can almost hear his salivating joy at the thought of tearing it apart😂😂😂
I liked the greedily rubbing his hands together while he was saying ‘IF we can tear one down….’
I love to hear Carl’s take on interiors. With the changes for the new 2024 Model 3 this video is very timely and interesting. Carl’s presentation is so knowledgeable, clear, and understandable. Great video.
You are by far the best overall presenter at Munro. 👍
What you don't do that others do are, sort of, kind of, repeating yourself and ahs.
So refreshing 🙏
I don't know what current Bolts are like, but I had a 2020 Bolt for a couple of years and everything about it felt like crap. No one in the family liked riding in the car. The only good thing I can say about it is that it didn't use pollution juice for propulsion. Within the 1st month there was talk of how would get get rid of the POS. Luckily used car prices went crazy and we traded it for slightly more than we paid for it. I couldn't in good conscience sell it to a person.
gm has not improved the BOLT in 2023, last bolt.
its unlikely gm will make any significant changes in the BOLT on the Ultium platform.
Hehe pollution juice!
@@markplott4820 lmfao! "Ultium". Still can't get over that marketing scam.
@@themonsterunderyourbed9408Ultium is indeed crap unless it's 800V, and Ultifi is the root of the problems. Honda Prolouge (despite being based on 400V) looks good, same for ZDX, both because they have unique software, and because THEY I DON'T KNOW, HAVE CARPLAY!?!?
Could not agree more, Tesla did a fantastic job with the new Model 3!
@@ChristinePerkins-yt7ie Yes, of course I had a test drive. Same day as the new Polestar 2... Model 3 is so much better than the P2 on any metric I could find. They are very similar in driving dynamics.
Carl is the best!👍🏻
Personal question- Carl, are you a Dad? If you aren’t you should be.
Great video. Carl you are outstanding in your description & explanation. Truly appreciate all work accomplished at Munro
Much appreciated!
Well done. Concise and to the point.
Black with white interior looks so good
Excellent presentation, Carl!!
The munrolive community demands a teardown! ✌️
Thanks for the different perspectives! Appreciate your insight and time.
🙋♂️🤗THANKS CARL,AND THE MUNRO TEAM…FOR YOUR REVIEW…I LOVE ❤️ ALL THE IMPROVEMENTS AND POINTING OUT SOME NEW ONES 😎💚💚💚
Please do a complete tear down of the new model 3!! it would be such an important and great video
Can't wait for these upgrades to come to the Y
You wouldn’t assume you have a chauffeur in the Model 3… unless the Model 3 is the chauffeur 👀🤯 Hope they can achieve autonomy.
model 3 RWD are used by Rideshare & others.
SUPER economical car.
@@markplott4820 Also true
Love these vids!
Glad to hear it!
I really liked how well this video was presented. He went into a lot of detail with just the right amount of explanation and contrasted with the older M3 as appropriate.
Other videos I’ve seen either were too superficial or way too technical and this seemed to strike the perfect balance of educating without talking down to us or talking way over our heads.
The presentation was well paced and never belabored the point or hand waved over it.
Excellently done.
Carl always does such a fantastic review, touching on points and details that make you think about design so much more!!!
We agree!
My man is back :) Really like his point of view
CARL, is way off from BASELINE.
This has to be the best Tesla Model 3 side by side videos I have seen. Carl should do a video on how to do videos. 😂
Great job Carl.. Looking forward to more reviews by you.
We have tons of reviews by Carl on the channel!
You did a great job Carl.
Whats the name of the rims on the old M3? They look amazing....
Thank you Carl. Great job as always.
regarding the head rest moving down together with armrest, I believe Mercedes EQS rear center armrest does the same thing.
I think that's the case on models without the Executive package? Executive Plus is 4-seat only.
Timeless designs, both.
Its a brilliant car both models old and new a phenomenal car , just think back before tesla, the OEMs are still struggling to catch up to the S and it's been out since 2012.
Imagine working on the design team at a legacy?
EVERY time you think you're catching up, they move the goalposts.
@@rogerstarkey5390 well said 👏.
@@rogerstarkey5390 not really, everybody has their own tastes and preferences. In terms of interior design this is nothing exceptional. They did a good job on cleaning up to save production costs. Some people prefer nice feeling buttons and stalks, if you just want a cheap appliance it's perfect and satisfies tech nerds, so they fulfilled their brief perfectly.
Oh yes! I love this guy
Still remember Carl's first appearance, glad he's getting more air-time now. He's been very clear, with great insights since day one.
Hope to see more teardowns now, model 3+ would be very interesting, maybe even more-so than the Cybertruck.
Very informative video! Thank you! Tesla really did amazing work wirh the refreshed Model 3
In the new owners manual there is a section that talks about how the rear seat middle arm rest has a self locking mechanism during acceleration and steep slopes
Cool!
The new M3 looks amazing. I always loved the minimal aesthetic of Tesla vehicles.
Always appreciate your content and analysis.
Glad you like them!
I prefer the distinctive "frog" look of the original Model 3. You know it's a Tesla. The refresh could be any car manufacturer. The refresh interior: the light strip is annoying and the new dashboard looks and feels cheap. The refresh door feels too high, inside because the armrest is much lower. Not having stalks isn't too bad but the plastic on the steering wheel feels like cheap plastic. I like the new seats and the suspension and interior sound quality is noticeably improved. Too many buttons on the steering wheel though. I'll be happy keeping my 2023 3. Oh! Almost forgot. The door closes effortlessly and with a confident thump. Sounds firm and solid over the original, which Almost sold me on the refresh.
Another well presented video the Highlander.😊
Nice work, Thank You,
Great work as always!
Thank you!
Great job
I love the new 3 interior, soft everywhere and quite luxurious. The steering wheel in particular is fantastics to hold.
Love your reviews
Thanks for the quick outlook Carl. Would love a SW version and more colors available.
Excellent as usual I love Carl videos.
Glad you like them!
Great review
This is awesome it’s like comparing my car to my future car! Woooot.
great video munro live!
I really like these interior reviews. It’s so enlightening. I also happen to like the new model 3 (except for the lack of stokes). The balance between minimalism and aesthetics seems just right.
Thanks, comparative analysis really helps a layperson like me understand what's going on. Hey, was that Pepe?
I drove the Model 3 "Highland".
I think what makes Tesla's look so good is the fish tank like bubble which is clean and lets everyone see inside. The White seats and Ambient lightning make it look really upscale - even when it really isn't.
The plastic "vegan leather" looks great in White - and equally decent in Black.
The center display looks futuristic even though it complicates simplistic controls normally handled by hard buttons.
I really like the Model 3 Highland, but it's the Model Y refresh I'm more anxious to see. THE Model Y is more practical and that's why it sells so well worldwide.
Good one Carl, thanks! Hi Sandy!
The carpeted pocket is huge upgrade, I find it so annoying in my 2018 that every little thing my kids put in the pocket rattle like crazy, the noise is driving me mad! +1 for those carpeted pockets!!!
just buy some carpets then lmao
Dollar store (etc)
Buy a black microfibre towel/ cloth.
Make a paper template
Cut the towel.
Double sided tape.
Stick it in.
Easy to remove, cheap.
most of the WORLD is Carpeted.....and one day WE shall do the CLEANING.
I m simple man. I see Carl, i watch and LIKE video. :D
This is a gorgeous car for the money. Gorgeous
Still missing handles above the driver and passenger. It looks you don't need it until you have a back issue or whatever kind of mobily challenge and then you simply need to grab to something getting out.
That is what the model Y is for, higher base so it easy to get in and out. It also the reason why it outselling model 3, duo to it ease of access.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
2:12 Why is it a criticism to say it looks like a frog? Frogs are awesome.
The new Porsche Macan EV looks like a frog 🐸🥰🥰🥰🥰
lol i actually liked the previous headlight of model 3. speaking of looking like a frog, maybe rivians do too, but its also beautiful.

I like the precious front end look better myself. I bought a model Y late last year because I saw where they were going with the style.... particularly with the steering wheel. I like stalks.
Tesla may have to go back to them as EU safety laws are changing and may require them. We will see.
@@nickmcconnell1291 correction: Euro NCAP *recommendations*
Super cool! Great info
Glad you liked it!
GREAT VIDEO💪❤
Thanks 🔥
Carl is the man!
There is nothing at a 35k dollar price point or up to 50k that beats the value, tech, and quality in this car. So when someone says they are getting (insert competing EV here) for 10-20k more I often wonder is a cute design and buttons galore really what drives the wallet. And if someone gets an even more expensive ICE car in the same category…bless their hearts
I fkn hate buttons. My model 3 was recently sideswiped and it's in the shop getting fixed. The rentals have more buttons on the steering wheel alone than any video game controller. Then there's more buttons on the door, more buttons on the left side of the dash, more buttons on the right side of the dash, more buttons on the console near the gear shift. More buttons on the ceiling.
It's freaking insane how many buttons there are.
I miss my Model 3.
Nice improvements
The headrest moving with the central armrest is not a new feature. I owned a 2007 BMW 5 Series (E60/E61) and it was exactly like this.
Thank you for your great video, it's always informative. I hope you will perform the tear down soon!
Nice review. The car seems like a good value at that price. I wonder if the seat is as comfortable as it was in the prior version?
0:23 Nice to show the Model Y teardown, however it would have been more interesting to comment
the new 'body in white' of the new Highland Model 3 that Tesla had published instead.
- In fact, the most noticeable changes from the previosus Model 3 are:
(1) the removal of the front firewall but also (2) the removal of the rear speaker shelf,
so making the Model 3 as a hatchback or a Shooting brake estate would be no so difficult.
However, no front or rear casting was introduced for this new Highland Model 3.
- I imagine that introducing casting would have require more changes to the production line, adding more cost,
and maybe there was not enough capacity for making additional casting from the existing ModelY and Cybertruck Giga press.
Carl on point❤
10:54 the 2021+ Model S is also this way
Hi, Eric. It's the Highlander. Yes, kindness is always free.😊
Some value for money. Great job Tesla ,
2012 Dodge Journey also had a rear center arm test with integrated head rest.
Anyone know where they got the rims/covers on the older white Model 3? I kinda like that design.
Could really use a dark headliner, looks better and doesn't show marks
Yea Carl!!!!
Just for curiosity: Do the doorhandles have heating elements for winter-timer? It is a PITA when they are frozen.
On the German website it is still 43k €. So not that cheap as it sounds here.
VAT tax?
You forget Germany it with 21% tax, they talking pre-tax as it's in the US. So it is less then 35k without tax in Germany.
I still can't believe the badging is still icky chrome even after the "chrome delete". So glad Amazon has matte black covers. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Pricing is surely getting quite sane at Tesla...I would go with the Y for roof height. But, I just can't bring myself to abandon my Cherry 1996 Ford Aerostar XLT 3.0 V6 cruiser...
Carl did well on this one
Headrests moving with the arm rest is also in some BMWs.
The Bolt scaled up to $35k with options, and it came with quite a bit in the base trim. It started at $26k before tax credits. And it eclipsed the M3 in terms of cargo space.
I love the teardowns, but it always seems like Tesla gets graded on a curve, in this case Carl gave the M3 a $10k curve and a whole segment curve.
Waiting for model 2.
I want to see a tear down of the model 3 refresh.
Sandy may think the stalk delete is a non-issue but he’s wrong. I’m a User Experience developer and the steering wheel buttons fall far short of the functionality of the stalks from the previous generation. Namely, when turning, the buttons move with the wheel, forcing the user to locate them to engage/disengage signals. In Europe, roundabouts are a thing and require signalling to exit. With this design the driver’s left hand must be in the 7 o’clock position while turning to use the wheel buttons. The gear selection now requires touchscreen interaction and visual confirmation of drive direction. Before, reliable physical feedback provided certainty that the correct direction was selected. Single wipe, washer fluid spray, headlight flash and full beam could all be controlled with the left stalk and a left hand. Now some of these driving actions are on the right side of the wheel, requiring two hands more of the time. This change is more of the “the best part is no part” horseshit Musk subscribes to, it conveys no actual benefits and should be criticised as such.
ADAS will be doing all your turn signaling this year, including roundabouts. Always on time. Always polite.
Except it won't. Cause signaling is supposed to start well before you turn the wheel.@@lighthousesaunders7242
Since i drove on PC EuroTrucksim i hated the damn stalk heard tesla doesnt have em and was like i need the BUTTONS asap
Have you tried the new Model 3? Most people I've heard from say it's no problem.
@@wemakecookieand now do it accurately with the wheel turned by 90 degrees.
with a stalk that's no issue. with buttons it is. not very coomon in NA where straight roads and right angle turns are the norm. very much an issue everywhere else.
Tesla should incorporate this video into their showrooms. It's a credible 3rd party evaluation of the increased value for Model 3. (Easy to incorporate.)
That $35K Tesla announced in 2016 would be $45K today (29% inflation over the last 8 years). Another way to look at it is the current $39K price would have been $29K in 2016. It is directly competitive with ICE, without the maintenance hassles, expensive gas, noise and pollution issues of ICE.
35k used to be mercedes benz s class money in 2005.
@@tripplefives14022005 MSRP for the cheapest S Mercedes was $76,000
Model 3 seems value for money
“It’s better to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission” just tear down anyway and then tell them that you’re sorry, it was the new guy, it was an accident, “did I do that?”
Carl really knows his stuff. No wonder Sandy recruited him.
Would it be possible to swap exterior refresh for the older model 3? Rear windows glass ?
Yep, just trade in your current M3 for the Highland :)
When your say $35k it actually starts st 39k and the new performance model will probably be $60k+. Either way nice car.
Hi Carl!
