EV Channels Review
This video chronicles a winter exploration trip in Colorado with the Tesla Model 3 Performance, highlighting its capabilities and limitations in snowy conditions. The reviewer praises the car's all-wheel-drive system and the effectiveness of the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3 winter tires, noting their comfort and grip on the road. The Model 3 Performance is shown navigating snowy mountain roads, though the reviewer acknowledges it's not an off-road vehicle and expresses a desire for a more capable EV for such terrain. Charging infrastructure, particularly older stations, is identified as a recurring challenge, with slow speeds in cold weather impacting the charging experience. The new UI of the Model 3 receives a minor critique for its large display elements. Despite the charging hurdles, the trip successfully explored various towns and scenic routes, showcasing the potential for EV travel in rural Colorado, albeit with careful planning. The white interior's ease of cleaning is also a positive point.
