PART 2: AUSTRALIA MODEL 3 ROAD TRIP IN 2022 BY TESLA TOM | SYD MEL ADL

EV Channels Review

This video documents Day 2 of a road trip in a Tesla Model 3, covering the journey from Jindabyne, NSW, to Wodonga, VIC. The reviewer, Tesla Tom, highlights the car's handling capabilities on winding mountain roads in Kosciuszko National Park, noting that while the AWD performed well, autopilot usage was limited due to the challenging terrain. He emphasizes the significant benefit of autopilot in reducing driver fatigue on less demanding roads. The video also details the charging experience, including overnight charging at a hotel and a 19-minute stop at the Wodonga Tesla Supercharger to reach 78% charge. A key takeaway is the cost comparison between EV charging and petrol, with the EV proving significantly cheaper. The reviewer notes a discrepancy between the car's predicted energy consumption and actual usage, attributing it partly to less-than-expected energy recuperation on descents near Jindabyne. The accommodation in Wodonga is described as satisfactory, though lacking EV charging facilities.
