THE ULTIMATE ROAD TRIP EV? TESLA MODEL 3 ITALIAN ROAD TRIP: PART 2

EV Channels Review

This video chronicles a road trip in a Tesla Model 3 from the Italian Alps back to England in 2022. The reviewer highlights the Model 3's efficiency and the convenience of the Tesla Supercharger network, particularly its integration with the car's navigation system, making long journeys significantly easier than with other EVs. The reviewer praises the car's ability to plan charging stops and the fast charging speeds. However, several drawbacks are noted: the lack of a HUD or dashboard display forces constant glances at the central screen, the auto-wipers and auto-high beams are deemed unreliable, and Sentry Mode consumes a considerable amount of battery daily. The reviewer also expresses dissatisfaction with the car's ride comfort, finding it stiff and less comfortable than competitors like the IONIQ 5 or the Nissan Leaf, despite acknowledging the Model 3's superior efficiency for long-distance travel. The voice recognition is also criticized for its inability to understand basic commands.
