The Model Y is the perfect blend of utility and fun, with no real compromise. I'll take the model y in that quicksilver paint.

Great comparison. Bought a 2023 MYP in December and test drove a new M3 a week ago while charging. Much prefer the roominess of the MY.

[biscuitcatz]

Thank you for posting this comparison! It really helped me make a final choice of picking up a 3. Love it so far!

Have tested the Model 3 and Y every year or two and was always disappointed with ride quality and noise. Test drove the New 3 against the current Model Y recently, and the feel was drastically different! Love the new Model 3, but need the space that the Y offers. So I will sit on the sidelines until the new Y Juniper comes out, compare it to the other offerings on the market, and go from there. The Y feels very dated at this point!

Great and helpful video as always!
I can’t wait to drive mine Model 3 2024 ☺️
It arrived a weak after we flew to Thailand 🥹

Subbed, You will be the reason if i will later buy the Facelift of the MY (Family with 2 kids). Hope it works out when you will review it :)

[vittalko]

bro, do an overview of all the possibilities of the tesla application.

Which do you think will depreciate faster in 1 year? 24 M3 LR has new refreshed design, but 24 MY LR has higher global demand. Could you also tell a difference in highway wind noise or just road noise? Test drove a 24 Y and it rode quieter and smoother than I expected given most people online seem to indicate the 3 is so smooth and quiet now. Was pleasantly surprised!

Great video. The model 3 is way better looking in my eyes, so if you need a massive car, the Y should be the choice. If you don’t need a massive car, the 3 is more efficient, drives better (lower and weight is lower and smaller car) and yeah better looking to me. But amazing with the two choices

We recently went through this decision for our second car. Family of 4 with 2 tweens. We went w/ the 2024 M3LR for the reasons you cited, mainly better overall drive and feel. The rear seats in the M3 are a little tighter, but more comfortable than the current MY. Plus the kids liked the Bluetooth option for back screen. Agree that if MY Juniper is closer to the M3, it will be the standard to beat in the midrange EV market.

Great video. Keep up the good work. I ordered my MY RWD Midnight Cherry red with white interior a week ago. I coudn't wait for the Juniper upgrade and believe the differences aren't worth the wait. But it is a matter of personal taste. Have you decided yet on moving to Portugal permanently? Have a wonderful day!

also, the Model Y has a HEPA air filter whereas the 3 doesn’t

[annann-fnzi]

Hi There, thank you for yet another helpful video. Couple of questions . 1) Do you have to frequently have to change your tires? 2) what are your thoughts about autopilot? It’s 12k and so want to make sure it works during rain and snow. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks!

[shekarpraveen]

Thank you for the video, buddy. I live in the US and we get a $7500 tax credit which currently makes the cost of the 2024 MY Long Range (eligible for credit) the same as that of the M3 RWD (not eligible for credit). I personally like the new M3 since I like the new tech and don’t have a family but I fear that if the tax credit eventually becomes eligible for M3 in a few months, I would suffer from depreciation.
What would you suggest?
Also, What are your thoughts about the upcoming M3 Ludicrous? Cheers!

[SergiodeAbreu]

Hi nice video,
Owning an MY RWD MiG i would appreciate the back screen, even more smoother ride and ambient light of the new model... 😊
But apart from the MY space, the main reason for opted for MY mid last year was:
- Made In Germany, meaning megacasting front and back.
- BYD blade battery, faster charging and LFP chemistry I can charge to 100% at home any time i charge.
- back then smoother suspension among the MY's
- rear motor is the same as MY Performance 😊

Not sure if such blend is still available.

Think of a video describing the several MY specs .... Germany, China, US 😊

Hello, I am deciding between the standard range of the Tesla Highland with 19-inch wheels and the Tesla Model Y. It's a tough choice, so I would appreciate your advice. What is the real driving range of your Tesla Highland and the standard range of the Tesla Model Y? Is it worth choosing the Highland with 19-inch wheels over the 18-inch size? What would be the advantages? Regarding the Tesla Model Y, is the ride less comfortable and noisier compared to your vehicle? I am planning to choose the Blue color with a white interior and 19-inch wheels, but I have not seen it in person, as we do not have a Tesla showroom in Lithuania, and I have not seen these models in our city. Have you seen this configuration, and what is your opinion?Thank you for your help.

[JanniferGuo-uvlh]

I just test drove the new model 3 today. Absolutely like it and wondering if I should wait for new model y. So this is exactly what I need. Thank you!

Just hope that the new model y will not be a lot more expensive than what it is currently

[renanmaluenda]

Why is that girl covering her face inside the white M3? 😂

The new MY is a simplified version of MY2023. Tesla in order to cut costs. You can look at the tail lights, they are simplified and the middle design is gone. Just added an ambient light interior. Better Choose the old version
