TESLA'S NEW MODEL 3 - SHOULD YOU UPGRADE? | TESLA MODEL 3 + MODEL Y

EV Channels Review

The reviewer discusses Tesla's decision to phase out the current Model 3 in favor of the new 'Project Highland' refresh, which is already available globally but not yet officially acknowledged in the US. The video highlights the significant upgrades in the new model, including a quieter ride, ventilated seats, a rear display, and improved interior/exterior design. However, the reviewer also points out that the current Model 3, particularly the standard rear-wheel-drive version, offers excellent value, especially with current incentives and discounts that may disappear. Key advantages of the older model are identified as the physical steering wheel stalks and the presence of ultrasonic sensors, which are absent in the new camera-only vision system. The reviewer advises potential buyers to consider current pricing, tax credits, and Tesla's end-of-quarter incentives, suggesting that now might be the best time to buy the existing model to maximize savings before the new, potentially similarly priced, model arrives.
