How soft and calmly you speak . I’ve been so turned off by loud and obnoxious reviewers that I have not been able to watch till the end. Thanks for the review

Thanks for not being the typical “WHATS UP EVERYBODY, BACK AGAIN WITH ANOTHER TESLA VIDeo”
This is refreshing

[booooooooooooooooooooooo]

I’m a long term model 3 owner. Something to keep in mind with the vinyl seats. NEVER use leather cleaners or multi surface cleaners to wipe these trims. Use a regular damp cloth or a sprayer with regular water to clean the interior. Using chemicals will alter the finish of the vinyl and make it shiny over time

Very detailed and honest review. Typical journalist reviews just seem to repeat the talking points or promo material they’ve been given, without any critical thought. This is much more thorough. Definitely handy to have an actual owner’s perspective.

One of the best Model 3 reviews. Great voice and he’s even thrown in a South African accent as tribute to Elon! Great work.

[Mkvon]

I just ordered the exact same configuration. The 19” optimal rims look beautiful with the pearl white paint. I can’t wait for my delivery!

[emanly.]

Thank you for the review ! I ordered my first Tesla last week in ultra red 🤯 I’ve been wanting one for years.

I really appreciate your review and your calm demeanor while doing. It's very relaxing and informative. However, I would just like to point out, that while I agree that the Tesla Model 3 doesn't compete in the same luxury segment as some other brands. I can greatly appreciate what they are offering as standard equipment for the price. Sometimes as far as features are concerned, they do something weird (like removing the stalks), but overall I think they are great cars with a ton of features as standard.

Clear, calm and easy-going review just like us South Africans like it. Love the precision of important details which other reviews didn't cover. Great job man

Hello from Japan! Really appreciate your video. I've been looking for an honest and thorough review of Model 3 2024 for several days, and I'm glad I finally found one! I watched every second of it and you covered everything I needed to know; and with a calm voice, as everyone commented :D

Thanks to you, I'm now more confident and decided M3 would be my first car.


I agree with the battery comparison between RWD and LR because it's scientifically true if we treat LFP and NMC the same way to 100%. LFP is also superior in terms of safety. But at the end of the day, we shouldn't think about it too much and go with the best practice of treating the battery no matter which model we choose.
Cheers! :)

Great video. I ordered the M3 LR, just waiting for my VIN allocation. My first Tesla and very excited 🙌🏻

If you press the wiper button on the steering wheel and want to change the speed without touching the screen, you can use the left scroll wheel to adjust it.

[andrerosado]

Very nice and detailed review. It provides answers on its features as I'm seriously considering to purchase the Telsa 2024 long range.

[BW-oknx]

Nice video!
One tip you might like if you're not aware: you can adjust the windshield wiper speed with the left scroll-wheel after you press the windshield button on the steering wheel once.
Push the wheel left of right, this also works for answering phone calls and skipping music.

Was really useful to me when I found out, as I noticed I don't like the automatic mode at all.

[LICHINHO]

It's nice to see this review done from Alcantarilha in Portugal!

[fathert]

I've just got a new Model 3 and that's my local charging station - nice to see a very local review!

[ProGamer-ho]

Your reviews about the Model 3 Highland was very precise, which I like.

[anilbouri]

Very nice discussion, your demeanor is relaxing and pleasant. Well done!

[cellman]

Nice video
As soon as Highland performance is available to order in United States I'm buying it!! Super excited !! Stealth Grey black interior. My first EV 😁. I love the tech and the minimalism. I'm a Tesla fan boy and I don't even have the car yet 😂😂

The 360 camera missing is not about Tesla being “cheap”, the HDR 5MP cameras around the car is more expensive than the 720P cameras you find in normal cars. Tesla’s strategy is to use computer vision to map and generate the surroundings in 3D and accomplish the simple duty as a backup camera with the ultimate goal of facilitating advance maneuvers in autopilot.
