2024 Tesla Model 3 Refresh! I Drive Both The RWD LFP & Long Range Versions

Additional thoughts not covered in this video… Stalkless is not a showstopper for me; Cooled perforated seats are really nice and the ambient lighting looks awesome. I like it more than I thought. Next level soft ride and better interior… But no front bumper camera… Watch this video where I provide my first visual and quick driving impressions of the Model 3 refresh. Thank you Tesla Nesconset for the demo drive; albeit a short one. They were back to back with test drives! I did the best I could making this video for the 35 minutes I had the car. More content to come on this rig for sure.

I really like the couple chemistry. Makes the video and reaction feel more natural and less scripted.

Nothing like a Sunday morning with Good old Dave, Cathy and morning Coffee. Great entertainment. Ty Guys.

Thanks Dave, you were the reason I bought the model 3 last year. Financially, however, my 2023 M3 rear wheel is so much less expensive that the physical differences with the refresh doesn’t matter.

Now that was a good husband wife banter: which direction are you going? I am going to go right. Go left, oh uu h better. 😅

I test this very same model last week and I’m impressed how well build it is. My only issue is the stock but; like everything in life, you get to use it and it was a really great experience I’m waiting down in the year or the next one to pull the trigger to be part of Tesla Journey

Great summary Dave and Cathy. Test drove the same car in Nesconset last week. First Tesla--waiting for a VIN!

I loved my 2023 Model 3 RWD. But at 70 it was too hard to get in and out of. So I went in last week and traded it in for a Model Y LR AWD. I think the Model 3 was more sporty driving and also I saw the refreshed M3 on the lot. Great looks and I am sure it's better car than what I had but still sits pretty low.

My sister ordered one last Sunday... by Tuesday night I was ordering mine. As the younger sibling/brother I feel like it only makes sense that I do what my big sister does 😅. Hers is Blue, mine is Stealth Grey. We will both be first time Tesla and EV owners, however I have driven a bit over 1300 miles in a Model Y all around Iceland during a trip last September. Super excited!

Being driving it for 3 months (Europe) and I can confirm everything Dave said.
Waiting for the matrix lights update. Not sure if the US models are going to get them

I got to test drive the 2024 M3 rwd last weekend and it was everything I expected it to be. If only the referral program was active or I would have ordered already. I was comfortable with the stalkless steering about halfway through the drive. I just wish it was steer by wire to match the stalkless. The sound dampening inside is much better.

Great and honest review from experienced Tesla driver. We ordered new model 3 in Austria three weeks ago. In Austria Tax credit is slightly lower but still available. And model Y dropped Prices to, you can buy new models Y RWD for the same price as new model 3 RWD. Im happy and can’t wait to receive the Car.😊

We just bought a gently used 2023 Tesla Model X Plaid identical spec to yours (except ours has the yoke) and we have a 2022 Tesla Model 3 RWD with the LFP. As nice as the Plaid X is, I'm just in love with our 'legacy' Model 3. Plenty of usable power, a really comfortable cockpit and despite the stiffer/sportier suspension it's just a really fun car to drive and I can't recommend it enough. Toss in the ability to routinely charge to 100% and it's a home run. Great video!!

Dave, when you're pointing out the exterior noticeable differences, th one you can add is the front bumper. It's the most obvious and easily recognizable difference.

Guys, I spent the Covid era investigating EVs, Teslas in particular. But I was a bit hesitant. Then I stumbled on your You Tube content, especially on Tesla’s. A year ago I ordered one. On June 29 last year I picked up a standard RWD in Perth Australia. And I LOVE it. Easily, at 69yo, the best car I’ve ever owned. Thank you!! And now YOU review this one! Now I’m tempted once more!!!! Please send $ in contribution!!! lol. Love your channel. Coming to Vegas and Seattle in May to see the Rolling Stones. I am going to hire a Tesla in Vegas!

I just love how you both make these videos! I test drove the long range version last week, and it was totally worth it! I’m placing my order for April to coincide with my 2021 lease end. Thanks for the video!

Best appliance in its class - looks quite good (best looking Tesla by far), very efficient, goes - what's not to like - just - If you are a car lover you buy more interesting cars if you can.

I drove a RWD yesterday and I was a 2019 owner of a LR AWD and I was blown away how much better it was. I thought I had a red line with the indicators but I recon I thought about what to press maybe 3 times. I think this will be my next car as soon as the leasing costs have come down a bit.

[YTYTYTY]

I think you will trade X for this. It is quieter, better NVH, nimble, cheaper, and the button clicky feeling is better too. Also, with center horn!

[ryansherman]

Dave some of the difference between the rwd and awd long range Is upgraded sound system and materials for the interior also more power and range

[doomsday]

How long before Dave ditches the X for the new 3?
