2021 MODEL 3 SR+ ROAD TRIP! THIS IS WHY YOU BUY A TESLA

EV Channels Review

This video chronicles a road trip in a 2021 Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus (SR+), highlighting its suitability for most buyers despite its base trim. The reviewer praises the car's quiet cabin, especially with dual-pane windows and 18-inch wheels, and confirms that it achieves advertised range when driven at or near the speed limit. A significant positive is the robust Tesla Supercharger network, which makes longer trips feasible. Key criticisms include the lack of standard floor mats on a ~$40,000 vehicle and the tendency for mud flaps to bottom out. The video also touches on the LFP battery's ability to be charged to 100% and discusses the end of Tesla's referral program. Overall, the SR+ is deemed sufficient for many, with the charging infrastructure being a major enabler.
