THIS NEAR 400 MILE MODEL 3 IS A GAME CHANGER

EV Channels Review

The reviewer explores the significant updates in the 2024 Tesla Model 3, dubbed 'Highland,' comparing it extensively with a 2018 model. Key improvements highlighted include a quieter cabin (up to 20% reduction in noise), enhanced aerodynamics with a lower drag coefficient, and subtle interior refinements like ambient lighting and a new screen for rear passengers. The reviewer praises the improved audio system and the removal of physical stalks, opting for swipe controls on the steering wheel. While the driving dynamics are described as subtly more responsive, the most impactful change for long-term owners is the drastically reduced cabin noise. A major point of discussion is the value proposition: with incentives, the new Long Range RWD model is priced competitively, making the trade-in of an older Model 3 a compelling, albeit nuanced, decision, especially given the small price delta between a used and new vehicle.
