TESLA MODEL 3 SR+ ENOUGH CAR? NEW LFP BATTERY!

EV Channels Review

This video provides a comprehensive look at the 2021 Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus, focusing on its practicality for daily use and the implications of its new LFP battery. The reviewer highlights the LFP battery's advantage of allowing 100% charging without significant degradation, though notes the stated range is 253 miles, with a potential software update to reach 262 miles. Key positives include the updated interior with Alcantara trim, a functional and fast mobile app, and the power of the standard range model, which is deemed sufficient for most drivers, even outperforming sports cars like the BRZ. The reviewer also touches on the improved ride quality and quietness attributed to the 18-inch aero wheels. Criticisms are minimal, with the reviewer acknowledging that while the standard range is fast, it lacks the initial aggressive punch of higher trims, and expresses a slight fear of driving a Long Range model and regretting the choice. The video also briefly covers third-party charging experiences, finding them less seamless than Tesla's Superchargers.
