I BOUGHT A TESLA MODEL 3 - CELEBRATING 2 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS!

EV Channels Review

The reviewer, celebrating 2 million subscribers, has purchased a Tesla Model 3 Mid-Range and provides a detailed first impression. He highlights the RWD configuration and lighter weight as key advantages for driving dynamics, contrasting it with the AWD variants. The exterior is noted for its multi-coat red paint and optional 19-inch wheels, while the interior receives praise for its premium features, including 12-way adjustable heated seats and a well-performing sound system, though the bass is perceived as stronger in the front. The expansive glass roof and functional frunk are also appreciated. Driving impressions focus on the responsive, albeit slightly delayed, acceleration in standard mode, the effectiveness of regen braking, and the numb but responsive steering. Visibility is excellent, and ride comfort is deemed good despite imperfect road conditions. A unique observation is the audible brake pad contact at low speeds due to the car's quiet nature. The central 15-inch touchscreen controls most functions, including a novel climate vent direction system. The reviewer finds the lack of a traditional instrument cluster surprisingly natural after initial adjustment. He expresses satisfaction with the rear-wheel-drive feel, noting a playful nature when accelerating out of corners. Autopilot is deemed not worth the $5,000 upgrade at this time, as the reviewer enjoys driving. The video also includes a tip for potential EV buyers to look for states with high incentives to reduce purchase costs.
