Never had an EV so went to Tesla for a look last week, ended up with a Model 3 home for a 24hr test.. Like you I was so impressed with the full package the car offers. Easy decision to order! 👍
Nice to see a car reviewer go in with no prejudice. It's simply a great car that just works. I'm on my second one and absolutely love it. Keep up the good work and for all the haters that will comment on this video you have a new subscriber who will watch more of your videos now because of your fair and balanced review. Keep up the good work
It needs to be noted that there are two sets of haters, those that hate ev’s and those that hate Elon, who this week has attempted to stoke the troubles in the UK by stating that we’re heading for civil war. So great car, I’m sure, but no thanks, unless he does one. Not that I could afford one anyway.
Owned a 2019 Model 3 for 80,000 miles. Sold it to my nephew before moving to Portugal. Searching for a good deal on a used 2022 Model 3 or perhaps buy the new revised one. One thing everyone should know - buying a used Tesla Model 3 or Y is the BEST value for money. These cars are bulletproof, from 2019 and onward and espeically after sometime in 2021 when the heat pump arrived. Keep in mind Teslas (any EV) don't have thousands of moving parts that need lubrication or service. No oil changes. No water pumps, no timing belts, no transmission at all. It's really just that simple.
I also purchased a 2022 used Model 3. With the federal $4,000 rebate, I paid 1$18,900 for it before tax and license. The car had 77,324 miles on it, but it was in immaculate shape except for the wheels. I love the car and it has a real-world range of around 225 -240 miles. Because it has 19" wheels, I lose about 15 -20 miles of range. So far the car has been amazing; easily the best car I have ever owned. I calculated that if I drive it approximately 25,000 miles, it will have paid for itself in gas savings in comparison to my Toyota Tacoma 4-Wheel Drive truck. Recurrent rates the battery capacity as 95% of its original capacity. It charges to 254 miles, and originally it charged to 263 miles with 19" wheels. But it doesn't get that range. So it's been a brilliant purchase. I calculated that my ROI on the purchase is over 8% in actual savings and that 8% is not taxed, so it's more like an 11% ROI.
I got in a Tesla 3 years ago as a full on petrol head, I dumped my M3 for a model 3 performance off the back of that experience and about to get the new version. Amazing cars!
Great review. Like many, 4.5 years ago when the government announced 0% BIK on ev's for company car drivers, I opted for a Tesla Long Range Dual Motor. It was a USA built car and on that, i'd happily concede the build quality wasn't the best (never rattled or failed me, just the detail) Now on my second Model 3 dual motor, the fact its a china build has changed the game, my wife now also has a standard range Model Y which is a phenomenal car. In fact we took it to Cornwall (620 mile round trip) due to its practicality this year, its shorter range was no inconvenience at all. Theres a LOT of hate out there for Tesla but I am pleased you enjoyed it. Like you I will always be a petrolhead (911 Turbo S will always be my dream car) but genuinely I really enjoy my Tesla and the dual motors and 4.2 seconds to 60 never bores me. Oh, and I achieved 313 miles all motorway for a business meeting in February and arrived home with 9% battery, so my claimed range really isn't far off at all, never once worried about it and now I don't even pay attention to it! Great review, subscribed!
Excellent review video. One of the best ones I've seen. Many don't have the car long enough to properly get used to it, so end up complaining about things which are down to user error/lack of knowledge. But it looks like you pretty much worked it all out and therefore not fallen down the same traps.
You can use voice control for everything and the car hasn't got fly by wire steering. It has electric steering. The only Tesla with fly by wire anything is the Cybertruck.
We got stuck on the M5 for an hour last December due to an accident up ahead. UA-cam was very useful, as was the ability to keep the heater running as it has negligible energy consumption.
I have petrol running through my veins, but have just bought a 9 year old Model S for the free supercharging. Great for a free running daily, but have the xjr and boxster for the weekend fun
Nice review of the car, they do still need to add the indicator stalks back in for sure. I think EVs are a good deal they make sense to me. Not sure why so many on the internet dont like them
Who cares we got one & you see so many you think you are in a Tesla factory we live in SoCal good thing they are not like the first mustang byers and blowing the horn at each other
OK , Joel! A fine review from a gas car owners viewpoint and BETTER than many USA reviews. NOW, sell the Porsha and buy a new Model Three and save the extra quid for some COLD beer! For the history books; this writer owns a Kia Niro BEV and is THINKING ON a change of EVs.
I am a 75-year-old pensioner, and how I wish I could enjoy an EV today. I have never driven an EV, but you have inspired me. If only my eyesight could pass the test. Thank you for this unbiased review.
Great review. Been with my new model 3 rwd ultra red for 1 week now. A massive upgrade on my 2017 bmw 3 series. Such a relaxing drive - super quiet, quick, comfortable and of course you get that feeling of being in something really modern.
Great video. After my previous car was declared a total loss, I had to get a new car, and I was also skeptical, but once I sat in one and test drove it, I was sold pretty quickly. Tesla has really improved most of the things that needed improving, and for the price, you’d be hard pressed to find any other car, ICE or EV, that matches the features, sportiness, and practicality of the new Model 3. FWIW, I’m in the U.S., where the price was discounted by $7,500 for the lease, and was effectively leasing a $32,500 vehicle, and next year I’ll get a $3k rebate from the state I live in, making the cost of this insanely low. I’ve now owned it for 4 months, same trim as the one you drove, and it has been fantastic. I have added a 3rd party unit for CarPlay / AA, and that unit also shows me critical info right in front of me, including blind spot warning, speed, range, etc.
I have owned a Tesla Model 3 for 8 months and agree with everything Joel says - it is not him being nice to Tesla because they have given him a car for a week and he feels obliged to be positive he is simply telling it honestly. Didnt see anything about the sat nav which is a big positive because whilst giving directions it also directs you to superchargers before you run out of charge without the driver having to do anything extra. Also provided you can charge at home at 7p per KWH I can confirm it costs 2p per mile to run.
Joel hit the nail on the head with these cars you have to look at them differently they are there to do a job and as he put it there a utensil,but I think there’s no doubt they do EV’s better than anyone else.
Great review, ive had my Y for almost 3 years and saved around $8000 in gas and 0 maintenance. It's literally the best car ive ever driven and it's also the safest cars ever tested by NHTSA, NCAP, and ANCAP. Once you really learn all the features your mind is blown. Dog mode/keep mode for instance can save a child or pets life. Sentry mode uses 8 caneras around the car to record movement, viewable from your phone! Im still amazed with my car every day, ill never buy a different car brand again.
This is the most complete saloon car ever made, it just does everything so well. Reset the bar for everyone else, old model 3 had a lot of flaws but this one addressed all of them
Fun to watch you experiencing this model 3 without any preconceived notions. I have been following you since your Z4 days (when I bought a Z4 here in the Seattle USA area) and actually own my 2nd Tesla (Model Y Performance) , but will keep my stick shift Z4 since I’m a petrol head as well, as you call it. Great job, keep bringing us great content!
They really are good cars. If it had all the same attributes and characteristics and features and price but it said bmw 320i on the boot everyone would be praising it to high heaven
I’m a real car guy. I’ve had a few 911’s, hot hatches, M cars etc. My current “fun” car is an R8 V10+. I had a test drive in a model 3 this week and absolutely loved it! Such a different way to experience driving. I think I’m going to order one next week to use as the daily driver. Dual motor, long range. I just wish there was a bigger colour choice. Great video btw.
*This is what pisses me off about the Tesla haters:* If had stood on my driveway, with my friends, and said; My new car has 500HP, O-60 in 3.6s but does 110mpg and is silent. It doesn’t need services and has more interior space than the X5 it replaced …. They would all be agast. Impressed beyond belief… But when I say it’s a Tesla, they all sneer and get very grumpy! Petulant child-like. “Elon should shut his bloody mouth” “That thing will catch fire” “Doesn’t he support Trump?” “Car parks can’t stand the weight” “It depreciates fast” “Takes hours to charge” “You’ll need new batteries in two years and they cost £30K” “You can’t cross Europe in it” Utter imbeciles…
This is what baffles me as well. If you'd told anyone in 2010 that we'd have a car that goes from 0-100 in the same range that hypercars used to be in (sub 3 second), is totally silent, has the practicality of a large sedan, and space in the front for bags, and comes with actual working fast infotainment, everyone would've declared you insane. And now that we have them, all people can ask is "so, how far will you get", or "do you still have a diesel for the vacation trips?". No muppets, these cars charge within half a hour on a great charging network, I charge at home, so I never waste time a gas stations, and I get to drive a car that is 1. fast, 2. superbly in the software department, 3. gets regular updates that actually add functions, 4. doesn't cause lung cancer.
I think people are seeing the end of what they have known all their lives. EVs, and Teslas in particular, are not cheap. They will get cheaper every year. Once they are cheap, attitudes will change rapidly in my opinion. For now, a lot of people are scared and scared people either cry or shout.
What have you been doing for the last 7 years? Why did it take you 7 years to drive one of the best vehicles on the planet? I drove a Model 3 Performance 5 years ago and it made my C55 AMG feel slow and awkward.
Great video . Couple of things though - if you want autopilot added you can apply it via the app (you don’t have to go back to Tesla). Also the long range does charge quicker as you say, but it only takes longer to charge than a standard range if you want it to go further. I’ve got a Tesla and love it. I still love my mx5 just as much too though.
@@barr96 the Chinese arrived years ago, MG4 came out in 2022, but none of them are competing on the overall package that Tesla offers. Even if you ignore the supercharging network, the MG4 does not have matrix LEDs, is much smaller, no where near as efficient, the screen and software is awful, no leather seats, no ventilated seats, the app is unreliable, so many 12v issues, people are having warranty issues where MG refuses to take the car back even if its a lemon unless you take them to court etc. BYD is the closest.. but last I saw, their model 3 competitor starts at £63k and not the £39k price the model 3 is. Tesla super chargers are between £0.22 /kWh off peak and £0.33 on peak. Tesla vehicles get access to all of the chargers, and non teslas get access to some V3 and supposedly all v4 chargers, but pay around £0.50 unless they pay £10/mo membership. Tesla do not currently support plug and charge for those other EVs so you still have to faff about and you don't get the advantage of simply plugging the car in and it charging within seconds. Other EVs take up to 2 minutes before they even start charging.
You haven't tried an Ioniq 5 with HUD, 360 degree cameras, ultra fast charging, V2L etc etc. I own one and I'm trying to find a reason to move to the new Model 3 but can't. Not having a HUD option is ridiculous as are the indicator buttons on the steering wheel. The only thing in favour of the Model 3 is the infotainment system but that's not enough to justify moving from my Ioniq 5 to the new Mode.
@@rickz7461 The only thing? Haha, you are more than a little bit delusional. The engineering on the Tesla is far ahead of the Hyundai in many respects, especially the energy management system with the ingenious OctoValve. The amount of tubing involved in the Ioniq's energy management is simply ridiculous, since it has two different cooling systems and no "hub" to exchange heat between any and all parts that can either supply or receive heat or both. Also the custom electronics in the Tesla, where Hyundai is much more conservative and uses much more industry-standard (read: previous millenium) solutions. And despite Ionity, there is little doubt that a road trip through Europe is simpler in a Tesla, at least until all of the superchargers are opened to everyone. I can literally drive to any supercharger on the continent and plug in, and it just works, with charging and payment both taken care of. Also, the Ioniq 5 is significantly more expensive, has much less power, and is not quite as efficient as Model 3 at highway speeds. Even so, I would agree that the Ioniq 5 is an alternative to seriously consider for many. It may have an edge on comfort and practicality, and maybe also the mechanical engineering. I don't know enough about the differences between the standard 5 and the 5 N to judge this, but the latter (more expensive again, but you do get a lot for that extra money so for those who can afford it..) certainly made the Model 3 Performance seem like a toy by comparison when Misha took it around the 'ring..! Search "misha model 3" and "misha 5n" here on youtube if you want to see the night-and-day difference... if not, suffice to say the Tesla's brakes gave in after a quarter of a lap, while he took the 5N on a second lap just to show it didn't break a sweat... Without a doubt the indicator buttons on the Highland (new Model 3 version) are pretty useless for Europeans, who drive in roundabouts. But there is a simple third-party solution. A driving school here in Norway uses a Highland, but installed "s3xy buttons" set up to work as indicators on the back side of the wheel. The biggest problems, they say, with the original buttons is actually not that they are on the wheel, but that they are capacitive, and placed next to each other, both on the left side of the wheel! By adding buttons at the back side of the wheel, left indicator on the left side and right indicator on the right side, it works so well that they say most of their students, despite being used to stalks when coming to them, actually prefer the buttons to a stalk. In any case, a third party stalk can also be mounted.

@@rickz7461 Don't forget - the SuperCharger network. Nothing matches. It's the main reason I won't buy any other EV no matter how good it is. I hope other charger networks can catch up because I sold my Tesla 3 before moving to Portugal and given Musk's involvement in politics and other stupid things he says primed me to use my substantial number of shares of Tesla stock to buy a competitor's EV. I don't expect any make, including the Chinese, to ever catch up to Tesla - but maybe they will be good enough. Note also, the single characteristic that really illustrates the superior engineering of Teslas is how much room they have inside and how the cars have good-sized frunks/froots. The other makes often simply convert an ICE car to an EV and fill the engine space with all the EV hardware. The effeciency of DESIGN is as impressive as the effeciency of PERFORMANCE. Still don't like Elon.
I agree with you. Not an enthusiast car, but as an daily driver, its so cheap to run. Available currently on 0% finance also. Also you're not polluting especially in urban areas.
I had a model 3 and now drive a model Y. As a petrolhead I have to say I really miss an engine and a manual gearbox for the noise and interaction and feel on a Sunday morning blast. As fast and capable as the Teslas are, they just aren’t rewarding when pushing on as they are too quiet and easy to drive. As a tool though, as a device for getting around with my family for bugger all cost, in comfort with a fantastic hifi and tonnes of storage (esp in the model Y) they are amazing. I don’t think I could go back. 10,000 miles last year cost me about 200 quid! One day, when I can afford it, id love a second car, maybe a Cayman or an Emira for driving for the sake of it, but thats just for me. The Tesla is for my family. Great Review - very fair and thorough.
@@NomadJRG it’s through a business so depreciation is not something I really needed to consider. The huge tax relief in year one as well as the 2% bic was what I had on my mind. No diesel can really compete. As a private buyer it’s a valid point though. EV’s have depreciated a lot, especially the expensive ones (Taycan etc) so that would have to be carefully considered if you were looking at the private used market.
Thanks for the review, rarely do reviewers point out the low cost of running the car which can be amazing if you can charge at home. I have a petrol car for fun but also a LR for all the daily stuff. That said the performance is impressive - you should try a LR/M3P
yes agreed and 18-inch wheels also have better ride quality than 19 and 20 inch options as well as are the cheapest. Given it's a daily-driver/transport car the standard 18 inch wheels are overall best, since RWD Model-3 is not a sports car after all. Also, to replace these tyres in future, the replacement rubber for 18 inch wheels will cost less than 19/20 inch tyres.
New here, what a great review, I have one on order and this in depth video is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for giving your honest opinion, which is somewhat hard to find these days with all the Tesla stereotypes and assumptions
Brilliant review m8. I’m a non-Tesla EV driver and thinking about one for next year and it’s really nice to see someone who has no experience of them just talk about the real things that people use the car for rather than fanboy 0-60 times etc.
Hi Joel, I always watch your videos and am subscribed, this is the first time I've commented, this is the best EV and Tesla video I have watched,totally unbiased, interesting and put in a way everyone can understand, we are new to EV ownership and are still learning, hopefully moving to a Tesla next year,best wishes to you and Katie.
You got it absolutely right, mate! Embrace it, and once you understood that (some, not all) electric vehicles are just better for the daily stuff, you can specialise with a zero compromise, no nonsense, second fun car for the weekends. It’s really fun to think of good parings (EV + fun car) for the price of 1 ICE “do it all”- car. For instance used BMW I3 + Porsche Boxster/ tuned MX5 instead of M135/ GTI MK7.5
@@oggyoggy1299 the unknown of driving an EV and not having a combustion engine. Range anxiety… how does the real life range differ to that quoted by manufacturers in ideal conditions. Not experienced one yet and although I like the idea of being ‘greener’ I’m not sure I’m ready to ditch the combustion engine yet until the infrastructure has been improved.
@@Sussexfaunsif you can drive the speed limit we get about 130/150 miles per gallon equivalent without hipermiling but if you are always racing in any kind of car you will pay plus the police will be on your ass
@@Sussexfauns The infrastructure is fine. You can easily road trip the car across the UK and Europe. I can drive from my house in Bournemouth to Ballycanew in Ireland without stopping and get there with 10%. There are super fast chargers everywhere. If you can charge at home or at work reliably, then there really aren't many reasons. not to go for a Tesla unless you're so young you can't insure one like me. Thankfully my insurance is coming down now and I am hoping to buy one next month. If you cannot charge at home or work, then don't bother. The cost per mile will be similar or 2x the cost of diesel if you only use public charging. For me, I'll be able to enjoy instant heating and AC in the winter, having the car be warm when I wake up, and it will cost me £4 to drive to Manchester and back since I can get to my friends house in central Manchester from Bournemouth without stopping, and they have a charger at their house since they have a Tesla. I cannot wait to get one and wake up with 380 miles and not worry about needing to drive to a petrol station.
I'm 56 a complete petrol head. What really gets me is (I'm Irish) is the idiots in the green party telling me what I can and can't do and that's what put me off don't tell me what to do,let me make up my own mind. A brilliant review, that really appears unprejudiced. I've subbed to young man,well done.
I enjoyed that review. I think you could have been more "brutally honest" about the indicator buttons at the end. I'd like to see your opinion of the performance version. I get that you like petrol cars but you gotta admit this does all the "car" things better than most cars under $100k
they've improved the refinement of the whole car. I drive the first gen model 3 and its noisy! poor build quality with rattles everywhere! Ride quality is very harsh, too stiff a suspension. But this one is very very different. Would recommend it. I'm currently testing the latest Model Y and its very impressive too! They've also softened the ride suspension so its much nicer now to drive around town and also improved a lot the quiet cabin. Even the 2022 Model Y has harder suspension and noisier cabin! Tesla makes small improvements all the time. Quite impressive!
You can control a lot of the stuffs without touching the screen for example if i want to turn on air con, just press the button on the wheel and say "i am hot" it will activate the air con. If you want to open charging port just say "open butthole".
Whilst I do have an EV - Genesis Electrified G80, I'm certainly no Tesla Fan, but this latest Model3 certainly seems impressive for the money, being extremely well equipped. Even the updated styling seems like a big improvement.
we'll your a breath of fresh air! We have a Tesla model 3 and we're sick of people reviewing being negative. 🙌 Where are you driving, looks like Dorset?
Good review. However, having optional paint, wheels or wall box will incur an extra £2050 in road tax over five years. This will apply after the 1st April next year.
Hey Joel! This is another great video, as always...I've been a fan of you and the channel for quite some time now. Quick question: you always seem to be rocking some super cool watches jn your videos...which one are you wearing here? Thanks! Sending you love from Michigan, USA ✌️
Best EV review Ive ever seen. It’s made me think about getting a Tesla. I’d like to see you review the Model S, if you get a chance, as not so keen on the look of the Y. 🎉❤
For the Readers; If you are as 'tossed' as "Joel' of the lack of indicator stalks; you can buy one for a DIY project. And there are a 'flock' of dandy aftermarket items { a HUD for example} if you wish to customize the Tesla. The Tesla has the LARGEST aftermarket products segment of any EV currently on the roads .
Hi Joel, so you liked it then ? How come you didn't try any voice-actuated changes, rather than using the touch screen. It's another aspect of why the car works so well. If you do, you don't need type anything.
Nice! I can't wait to get mine, I'm HYPED. Gas is extremely expensive.. I would say atleast 60% of my income goes to driving an old fashioned gasoline car. since I do A LOT of driving, I think the Tesla will definitely help me out
All thats going to happen with the lack of indicator stalks is people won't signal. In the USA where roundabouts are rare, I can see why it works, but not in the rest of the world. As for EVs, I love mine, not a Tesla, and I very much enjoy that my Lexus still has lots of buttons and controls within easy reach.
Its like changing from a Ford to a Toyota - you have to train yourself to use the other stalk. After a week or so it becomes muscle memory and you don't think about it. Buttons are exactly the same. What is hard, is taking out the TVR Griff occasionally and trying to indicate by pressing the steering wheel!
People complaining about the 'official range' never beeing correct in EV's seem to forget the 'official' stated WLTP mpg/fuel consumption in the cars we know, also are never really true. Also, if Tesla doesn't bring out the Solid State battery out fast enough, they might kill the EV market. So release the tech and let's start comparing their range to diesels. Not only do they charge faster, they are lighter, more durable and they can store at least 4-5 times more capacity compared to the 'liquid' batteries (meant for walkmans and remote controllers 😄). Be honest, if this playstation on wheels had a 1000+ mile range, there would not even be a discussion, because they are fun and fast.
Range is not a problem - cost is. Even an EV with 200 mile range can keep up with an ICE. The weak link is the human bladder. No viable solid state batteries on the horizon and none from Tesla.Their battery is the very heat efficient 4680 tabless design in LiFePo and NCA chemistries. ua-cam.com/video/PlYQD9CMwUk/v-deo.html
Never had an EV so went to Tesla for a look last week, ended up with a Model 3 home for a 24hr test.. Like you I was so impressed with the full package the car offers. Easy decision to order! 👍
Thanks for sharing
We too I always drive it on chill

@@frederickfaller899 Nice! lol
I also purchased a 2022 used Model 3. With the federal $4,000 rebate, I paid 1$18,900 for it before tax and license. The car had 77,324 miles on it, but it was in immaculate shape except for the wheels. I love the car and it has a real-world range of around 225 -240 miles. Because it has 19" wheels, I lose about 15 -20 miles of range. So far the car has been amazing; easily the best car I have ever owned. I calculated that if I drive it approximately 25,000 miles, it will have paid for itself in gas savings in comparison to my Toyota Tacoma 4-Wheel Drive truck. Recurrent rates the battery capacity as 95% of its original capacity. It charges to 254 miles, and originally it charged to 263 miles with 19" wheels. But it doesn't get that range. So it's been a brilliant purchase.
I calculated that my ROI on the purchase is over 8% in actual savings and that 8% is not taxed, so it's more like an 11% ROI.
Test drove one this week myself for the first time. Mightily impressed
I got in a Tesla 3 years ago as a full on petrol head, I dumped my M3 for a model 3 performance off the back of that experience and about to get the new version. Amazing cars!

Nice refreshing review from someone who's a petrol head approaching a Tesla with an open mind and being pleasingly surprised.
Thanks for watching
Great summary and sub'd!
I've had a Tesla as my daily since Aug 2019 and on my 2nd one now, easily the best cars I've ever owned
You can use voice control for everything and the car hasn't got fly by wire steering. It has electric steering. The only Tesla with fly by wire anything is the Cybertruck.

I have petrol running through my veins, but have just bought a 9 year old Model S for the free supercharging.
Great for a free running daily, but have the xjr and boxster for the weekend fun
How about warranties? Do you have a S with unlimited warranty?
17:23. If something brings that much joy to grown men, I believe it's worth the money. Well done Tesla.
Nice review of the car, they do still need to add the indicator stalks back in for sure.
I think EVs are a good deal they make sense to me. Not sure why so many on the internet dont like them
Who cares we got one & you see so many you think you are in a Tesla factory we live in SoCal good thing they are not like the first mustang byers and blowing the horn at each other
OK , Joel! A fine review from a gas car owners viewpoint and BETTER than many USA reviews. NOW, sell the Porsha and buy a new Model Three and save the extra quid for some COLD beer! For the history books; this writer owns a Kia Niro BEV and is THINKING ON a change of EVs.
I am a 75-year-old pensioner, and how I wish I could enjoy an EV today. I have never driven an EV, but you have inspired me. If only my eyesight could pass the test. Thank you for this unbiased review.
Full Self Driving possible on all Teslas.
Launch in Texas and California next year and probably China.
RoboTsxi reveal last week.
Just paused the video to post this; I’ve just watched the introduction and I’m in stitches 😂
An exceptionally good review. Living with it for a week is the minimum one needs to evaluate one of these. One of the best honest reviews I've read.
Great review. Been with my new model 3 rwd ultra red for 1 week now. A massive upgrade on my 2017 bmw 3 series. Such a relaxing drive - super quiet, quick, comfortable and of course you get that feeling of being in something really modern.
Great video. After my previous car was declared a total loss, I had to get a new car, and I was also skeptical, but once I sat in one and test drove it, I was sold pretty quickly. Tesla has really improved most of the things that needed improving, and for the price, you’d be hard pressed to find any other car, ICE or EV, that matches the features, sportiness, and practicality of the new Model 3. FWIW, I’m in the U.S., where the price was discounted by $7,500 for the lease, and was effectively leasing a $32,500 vehicle, and next year I’ll get a $3k rebate from the state I live in, making the cost of this insanely low. I’ve now owned it for 4 months, same trim as the one you drove, and it has been fantastic. I have added a 3rd party unit for CarPlay / AA, and that unit also shows me critical info right in front of me, including blind spot warning, speed, range, etc.
What unit did you get? I would also like that when I get a Tesla...
I have owned a Tesla Model 3 for 8 months and agree with everything Joel says - it is not him being nice to Tesla because they have given him a car for a week and he feels obliged to be positive he is simply telling it honestly. Didnt see anything about the sat nav which is a big positive because whilst giving directions it also directs you to superchargers before you run out of charge without the driver having to do anything extra. Also provided you can charge at home at 7p per KWH I can confirm it costs 2p per mile to run.
Joel hit the nail on the head with these cars you have to look at them differently they are there to do a job and as he put it there a utensil,but I think there’s no doubt they do EV’s better than anyone else.
Great review, ive had my Y for almost 3 years and saved around $8000 in gas and 0 maintenance. It's literally the best car ive ever driven and it's also the safest cars ever tested by NHTSA, NCAP, and ANCAP. Once you really learn all the features your mind is blown. Dog mode/keep mode for instance can save a child or pets life. Sentry mode uses 8 caneras around the car to record movement, viewable from your phone! Im still amazed with my car every day, ill never buy a different car brand again.
We too
This is the most complete saloon car ever made, it just does everything so well. Reset the bar for everyone else, old model 3 had a lot of flaws but this one addressed all of them
Fun to watch you experiencing this model 3 without any preconceived notions. I have been following you since your Z4 days (when I bought a Z4 here in the Seattle USA area) and actually own my 2nd Tesla (Model Y Performance) , but will keep my stick shift Z4 since I’m a petrol head as well, as you call it. Great job, keep bringing us great content!
They really are good cars. If it had all the same attributes and characteristics and features and price but it said bmw 320i on the boot everyone would be praising it to high heaven
BMW have certainly committed some styling howlers of late, but nothing quite that bad 😂
I’m a real car guy. I’ve had a few 911’s, hot hatches, M cars etc. My current “fun” car is an R8 V10+.
I had a test drive in a model 3 this week and absolutely loved it! Such a different way to experience driving. I think I’m going to order one next week to use as the daily driver. Dual motor, long range. I just wish there was a bigger colour choice. Great video btw.
It’s good to hear your perspective. Amazing how many people think you can’t enjoy electric cars as a petrolhead!
new 2025 bmw 1 series120 m sport f70 (new design) or new 2025 tesla model 3 highland SR rwd ? ( absolutely same price in my country )
@@ismeto-j9y But not cost to own. Consumer Reports in US lists Tesla as the cheapest brand to own in 5 and 10 years.
Harry hated the indicators being on the steering wheel instead of on a stalk.
And there are aftermarket indicator stalks for sale, a DIY project{or hire a shop}.
tesla is a goldmine for aftermarket addons
@@harriettanthony7352that has to be the first job
You should test the refreshed perfromance one
Great video Joel! I recently had the facelift model 3 for review too. I will admit the indicator buttons took me a moment to get used to
*This is what pisses me off about the Tesla haters:*
If had stood on my driveway, with my friends, and said; My new car has 500HP, O-60 in 3.6s but does 110mpg and is silent. It doesn’t need services and has more interior space than the X5 it replaced …. They would all be agast. Impressed beyond belief…
But when I say it’s a Tesla, they all sneer and get very grumpy! Petulant child-like. “Elon should shut his bloody mouth” “That thing will catch fire” “Doesn’t he support Trump?” “Car parks can’t stand the weight” “It depreciates fast” “Takes hours to charge” “You’ll need new batteries in two years and they cost £30K” “You can’t cross Europe in it” Utter imbeciles…
Hater will hate but we love this car more than any other car every day and we use a supercharger 100% of the time
This is what baffles me as well. If you'd told anyone in 2010 that we'd have a car that goes from 0-100 in the same range that hypercars used to be in (sub 3 second), is totally silent, has the practicality of a large sedan, and space in the front for bags, and comes with actual working fast infotainment, everyone would've declared you insane. And now that we have them, all people can ask is "so, how far will you get", or "do you still have a diesel for the vacation trips?". No muppets, these cars charge within half a hour on a great charging network, I charge at home, so I never waste time a gas stations, and I get to drive a car that is 1. fast, 2. superbly in the software department, 3. gets regular updates that actually add functions, 4. doesn't cause lung cancer.
Max agree with what you typed but I do not like the look, it's not a car IMO that would make look at it when I got out.
Widest mouths have narrowest minds
I think people are seeing the end of what they have known all their lives. EVs, and Teslas in particular, are not cheap. They will get cheaper every year. Once they are cheap, attitudes will change rapidly in my opinion. For now, a lot of people are scared and scared people either cry or shout.
What have you been doing for the last 7 years? Why did it take you 7 years to drive one of the best vehicles on the planet?
I drove a Model 3 Performance 5 years ago and it made my C55 AMG feel slow and awkward.
At least they are cheap now. And once you try it then it’s hard to go back
Great video . Couple of things though - if you want autopilot added you can apply it via the app (you don’t have to go back to Tesla). Also the long range does charge quicker as you say, but it only takes longer to charge than a standard range if you want it to go further. I’ve got a Tesla and love it. I still love my mx5 just as much too though.
Had a Model 3 for 4 years. Also had several other EVs. Tesla are simply the best, as you now know.
Wait until the Chinese arrive
@@barr96 the Chinese arrived years ago, MG4 came out in 2022, but none of them are competing on the overall package that Tesla offers. Even if you ignore the supercharging network, the MG4 does not have matrix LEDs, is much smaller, no where near as efficient, the screen and software is awful, no leather seats, no ventilated seats, the app is unreliable, so many 12v issues, people are having warranty issues where MG refuses to take the car back even if its a lemon unless you take them to court etc.
BYD is the closest.. but last I saw, their model 3 competitor starts at £63k and not the £39k price the model 3 is.
Tesla super chargers are between £0.22 /kWh off peak and £0.33 on peak. Tesla vehicles get access to all of the chargers, and non teslas get access to some V3 and supposedly all v4 chargers, but pay around £0.50 unless they pay £10/mo membership.
Tesla do not currently support plug and charge for those other EVs so you still have to faff about and you don't get the advantage of simply plugging the car in and it charging within seconds. Other EVs take up to 2 minutes before they even start charging.
You haven't tried an Ioniq 5 with HUD, 360 degree cameras, ultra fast charging, V2L etc etc. I own one and I'm trying to find a reason to move to the new Model 3 but can't. Not having a HUD option is ridiculous as are the indicator buttons on the steering wheel. The only thing in favour of the Model 3 is the infotainment system but that's not enough to justify moving from my Ioniq 5 to the new Mode.
@@rickz7461 The only thing? Haha, you are more than a little bit delusional. The engineering on the Tesla is far ahead of the Hyundai in many respects, especially the energy management system with the ingenious OctoValve. The amount of tubing involved in the Ioniq's energy management is simply ridiculous, since it has two different cooling systems and no "hub" to exchange heat between any and all parts that can either supply or receive heat or both. Also the custom electronics in the Tesla, where Hyundai is much more conservative and uses much more industry-standard (read: previous millenium) solutions. And despite Ionity, there is little doubt that a road trip through Europe is simpler in a Tesla, at least until all of the superchargers are opened to everyone. I can literally drive to any supercharger on the continent and plug in, and it just works, with charging and payment both taken care of. Also, the Ioniq 5 is significantly more expensive, has much less power, and is not quite as efficient as Model 3 at highway speeds.
Even so, I would agree that the Ioniq 5 is an alternative to seriously consider for many. It may have an edge on comfort and practicality, and maybe also the mechanical engineering. I don't know enough about the differences between the standard 5 and the 5 N to judge this, but the latter (more expensive again, but you do get a lot for that extra money so for those who can afford it..) certainly made the Model 3 Performance seem like a toy by comparison when Misha took it around the 'ring..! Search "misha model 3" and "misha 5n" here on youtube if you want to see the night-and-day difference... if not, suffice to say the Tesla's brakes gave in after a quarter of a lap, while he took the 5N on a second lap just to show it didn't break a sweat...
Without a doubt the indicator buttons on the Highland (new Model 3 version) are pretty useless for Europeans, who drive in roundabouts. But there is a simple third-party solution. A driving school here in Norway uses a Highland, but installed "s3xy buttons" set up to work as indicators on the back side of the wheel. The biggest problems, they say, with the original buttons is actually not that they are on the wheel, but that they are capacitive, and placed next to each other, both on the left side of the wheel! By adding buttons at the back side of the wheel, left indicator on the left side and right indicator on the right side, it works so well that they say most of their students, despite being used to stalks when coming to them, actually prefer the buttons to a stalk. In any case, a third party stalk can also be mounted.

@@rickz7461 Don't forget - the SuperCharger network. Nothing matches. It's the main reason I won't buy any other EV no matter how good it is. I hope other charger networks can catch up because I sold my Tesla 3 before moving to Portugal and given Musk's involvement in politics and other stupid things he says primed me to use my substantial number of shares of Tesla stock to buy a competitor's EV. I don't expect any make, including the Chinese, to ever catch up to Tesla - but maybe they will be good enough. Note also, the single characteristic that really illustrates the superior engineering of Teslas is how much room they have inside and how the cars have good-sized frunks/froots. The other makes often simply convert an ICE car to an EV and fill the engine space with all the EV hardware. The effeciency of DESIGN is as impressive as the effeciency of PERFORMANCE. Still don't like Elon.
I agree with you. Not an enthusiast car, but as an daily driver, its so cheap to run. Available currently on 0% finance also. Also you're not polluting especially in urban areas.
I had a model 3 and now drive a model Y. As a petrolhead I have to say I really miss an engine and a manual gearbox for the noise and interaction and feel on a Sunday morning blast. As fast and capable as the Teslas are, they just aren’t rewarding when pushing on as they are too quiet and easy to drive. As a tool though, as a device for getting around with my family for bugger all cost, in comfort with a fantastic hifi and tonnes of storage (esp in the model Y) they are amazing. I don’t think I could go back. 10,000 miles last year cost me about 200 quid! One day, when I can afford it, id love a second car, maybe a Cayman or an Emira for driving for the sake of it, but thats just for me. The Tesla is for my family. Great Review - very fair and thorough.
How much does the depreciation cost you compared to a used £5k diesel?
@@NomadJRG it’s through a business so depreciation is not something I really needed to consider. The huge tax relief in year one as well as the 2% bic was what I had on my mind. No diesel can really compete. As a private buyer it’s a valid point though. EV’s have depreciated a lot, especially the expensive ones (Taycan etc) so that would have to be carefully considered if you were looking at the private used market.
Not really comparing like with like is it, A £5k car isn't going to be as good to drive or reliable.
Get yourself an MX5 for the weekend
@@richfixescars well quite, but if you’ve only got 5k you arent buying electric at all
Thanks for the review, rarely do reviewers point out the low cost of running the car which can be amazing if you can charge at home. I have a petrol car for fun but also a LR for all the daily stuff. That said the performance is impressive - you should try a LR/M3P
Phenomenal review. Incredible. Thank you.
This is the first time I have watched one of your videos, and I really enjoyed it. It was very informative
@@RachelTheives thanks so much
Just a comment the standard 18" wheels give the greatest range
yes agreed and 18-inch wheels also have better ride quality than 19 and 20 inch options as well as are the cheapest. Given it's a daily-driver/transport car the standard 18 inch wheels are overall best, since RWD Model-3 is not a sports car after all. Also, to replace these tyres in future, the replacement rubber for 18 inch wheels will cost less than 19/20 inch tyres.
And handle pot holes much better too
New here, what a great review, I have one on order and this in depth video is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for giving your honest opinion, which is somewhat hard to find these days with all the Tesla stereotypes and assumptions
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed the video! Enjoy your tesla!
Brilliant review m8. I’m a non-Tesla EV driver and thinking about one for next year and it’s really nice to see someone who has no experience of them just talk about the real things that people use the car for rather than fanboy 0-60 times etc.
Thanks for watching, I’m glad you enjoyed the review!
This is an excellent video, nice work - it does make you think. I too wouldn't be keen on the indicators 👍
Very in depth review that covers more than any other video I've seen yet. Cheers!
Hi Joel, I always watch your videos and am subscribed, this is the first time I've commented, this is the best EV and Tesla video I have watched,totally unbiased, interesting and put in a way everyone can understand, we are new to EV ownership and are still learning, hopefully moving to a Tesla next year,best wishes to you and Katie.
@@andrewmalyon5699 thanks for the comment, I’m glad you enjoyed the video!
You got it absolutely right, mate! Embrace it, and once you understood that (some, not all) electric vehicles are just better for the daily stuff, you can specialise with a zero compromise, no nonsense, second fun car for the weekends.
It’s really fun to think of good parings (EV + fun car) for the price of 1 ICE “do it all”- car.
For instance used BMW I3 + Porsche Boxster/ tuned MX5 instead of M135/ GTI MK7.5
I particularly like my Model 3 in winter and never having to scrape ice off the windsceen. Just press defrost on my phone.
Nice review Joel, I’m a little sceptical of EVs myself but was interesting to see an honest review of this Tesla. Keep it up.
Sceptical? Of what?
@@oggyoggy1299 the unknown of driving an EV and not having a combustion engine. Range anxiety… how does the real life range differ to that quoted by manufacturers in ideal conditions. Not experienced one yet and although I like the idea of being ‘greener’ I’m not sure I’m ready to ditch the combustion engine yet until the infrastructure has been improved.
@@Sussexfaunsif you can drive the speed limit we get about 130/150 miles per gallon equivalent without hipermiling but if you are always racing in any kind of car you will pay plus the police will be on your ass
@@Sussexfauns The infrastructure is fine. You can easily road trip the car across the UK and Europe. I can drive from my house in Bournemouth to Ballycanew in Ireland without stopping and get there with 10%. There are super fast chargers everywhere.
If you can charge at home or at work reliably, then there really aren't many reasons. not to go for a Tesla unless you're so young you can't insure one like me. Thankfully my insurance is coming down now and I am hoping to buy one next month.
If you cannot charge at home or work, then don't bother. The cost per mile will be similar or 2x the cost of diesel if you only use public charging. For me, I'll be able to enjoy instant heating and AC in the winter, having the car be warm when I wake up, and it will cost me £4 to drive to Manchester and back since I can get to my friends house in central Manchester from Bournemouth without stopping, and they have a charger at their house since they have a Tesla. I cannot wait to get one and wake up with 380 miles and not worry about needing to drive to a petrol station.
I'm 56 a complete petrol head. What really gets me is (I'm Irish) is the idiots in the green party telling me what I can and can't do and that's what put me off don't tell me what to do,let me make up my own mind.
A brilliant review, that really appears unprejudiced. I've subbed to young man,well done.
That looks pretty awesome tbh. Especially compared to the frog like design in the previous model. I like it.
I enjoyed that review. I think you could have been more "brutally honest" about the indicator buttons at the end. I'd like to see your opinion of the performance version. I get that you like petrol cars but you gotta admit this does all the "car" things better than most cars under $100k
Great video as always, Joel, and great taste in music, too.
they've improved the refinement of the whole car. I drive the first gen model 3 and its noisy! poor build quality with rattles everywhere! Ride quality is very harsh, too stiff a suspension. But this one is very very different. Would recommend it. I'm currently testing the latest Model Y and its very impressive too! They've also softened the ride suspension so its much nicer now to drive around town and also improved a lot the quiet cabin. Even the 2022 Model Y has harder suspension and noisier cabin! Tesla makes small improvements all the time. Quite impressive!
Would love to see such a thorough and thoughtful review of the Hyundai Ionic 5N from you Joel. Hope you’ve got plans to get one lined up!
You can control a lot of the stuffs without touching the screen for example if i want to turn on air con, just press the button on the wheel and say "i am hot" it will activate the air con. If you want to open charging port just say "open butthole".
Yes, I ran out of time to go through the voice command system, but it was very impressive. I used it to control my heated and cooled seat
There’s 177 voice commands who else does that ??
Great video, Joel 🙂 (First time watcher here) Thanks!
This is a better value for the money you pay. Thanks for the Incredibly nice review
My pleasure!
Best honest review I’ve watched on UA-cam so far, only comment would be “why do you need a heads up display when you’ve got adaptive cruise control” ?
Good job, an honest appraisal. Had my new Highland for less than 2 weeks and cannot fault it after 1200 miles.
Little FYI, the new model 3 is not fly by wire, the only vehicle that has that is the new Cyber truck.
Great video! I feel a bit silly really, I'm debating the 2024 Model 3 as my first car
Lease one 3 year lease start about $ 300.per month
Whilst I do have an EV - Genesis Electrified G80, I'm certainly no Tesla Fan, but this latest Model3 certainly seems impressive for the money, being extremely well equipped. Even the updated styling seems like a big improvement.
Watching you absolutely shit your pants in the intro because of that noise, had me in tears! 🤣😭 that was hilarious!
You're an excellent communicator Joel. Keep up the great work !
Great review, I’ll be getting one of these next 👍
we'll your a breath of fresh air! We have a Tesla model 3 and we're sick of people reviewing being negative. 🙌 Where are you driving, looks like Dorset?
Glad you enjoyed the review, actually no, in Surrey!
HA this just popped up in my feed, ordered my new 2024 M3P just today , Lucy my 2021 M3p has been amazing.
Good review. However, having optional paint, wheels or wall box will incur an extra £2050 in road tax over five years. This will apply after the 1st April next year.
I don't get the complaint of the speedo on the dash vs the speedo in the corner of the screen. Either way you are glancing away from the road
You know what speed you are going after about a year or so
Great review! I really like your review style and openmindedness.
Hey Joel! This is another great video, as always...I've been a fan of you and the channel for quite some time now.
Quick question: you always seem to be rocking some super cool watches jn your videos...which one are you wearing here? Thanks!
Sending you love from Michigan, USA ✌️
Its a really good car i have one and it saves money compared to what you can get comparitivly speaking and with hardly any servicing its great
Loved that video Joel, I’m a petrol head but that was fascinating 👍🏼
The Netflix is so useful when collecting kids from school and sports events.
Nice to be able to pull ip the location of the vehicle and see its location on a map, from basically anywhere.
Wow, amazing review. Thanks
Best EV review Ive ever seen. It’s made me think about getting a Tesla. I’d like to see you review the Model S, if you get a chance, as not so keen on the look of the Y. 🎉❤
Great review. Same watch here, I think 😊
For the Readers; If you are as 'tossed' as "Joel' of the lack of indicator stalks; you can buy one for a DIY project. And there are a 'flock' of dandy aftermarket items { a HUD for example} if you wish to customize the Tesla. The Tesla has the LARGEST aftermarket products segment of any EV currently on the roads .
Thank you for a great honest review
The best EV period
Great review. The M3 doesn’t have drive by wire, only the cybertruck
To set the nav, you can just talk to the car. It is very, very responsive and will 99,5% of the time 'hear' you and understand you.
Hi Joel, so you liked it then ? How come you didn't try any voice-actuated changes, rather than using the touch screen. It's another aspect of why the car works so well. If you do, you don't need type anything.
Nice! I can't wait to get mine, I'm HYPED. Gas is extremely expensive.. I would say atleast 60% of my income goes to driving an old fashioned gasoline car. since I do A LOT of driving, I think the Tesla will definitely help me out
Really great review, thanks.
And yet we’re told not to use touchscreens in our cars ie sat nav mobile etc
All thats going to happen with the lack of indicator stalks is people won't signal. In the USA where roundabouts are rare, I can see why it works, but not in the rest of the world. As for EVs, I love mine, not a Tesla, and I very much enjoy that my Lexus still has lots of buttons and controls within easy reach.
Its like changing from a Ford to a Toyota - you have to train yourself to use the other stalk. After a week or so it becomes muscle memory and you don't think about it. Buttons are exactly the same. What is hard, is taking out the TVR Griff occasionally and trying to indicate by pressing the steering wheel!
Why do people have a prejudice about EV’s? Get over it, you WILL be driving one eventually… it is the only thing that makes sense…
People hate change,makes them feel insecure. Funny really,as the only certain thing in life is change !
Change is hard for some people we love it & will never go back to ICE Cars
So jealous you found a Tesla charger only a couple of miles away!
I hope Tesla get a lot more installed in the coming years.
There are plenty of them in the USA never even a thought.
@@frederickfaller899 In the North East of England there are only 2 locations

My clear coat is fine
People complaining about the 'official range' never beeing correct in EV's seem to forget the 'official' stated WLTP mpg/fuel consumption in the cars we know, also are never really true. Also, if Tesla doesn't bring out the Solid State battery out fast enough, they might kill the EV market. So release the tech and let's start comparing their range to diesels. Not only do they charge faster, they are lighter, more durable and they can store at least 4-5 times more capacity compared to the 'liquid' batteries (meant for walkmans and remote controllers 😄).
Be honest, if this playstation on wheels had a 1000+ mile range, there would not even be a discussion, because they are fun and fast.
Range is not a problem - cost is.
Even an EV with 200 mile range can keep up with an ICE.
The weak link is the human bladder.
No viable solid state batteries on the horizon and none from Tesla.Their battery is the very heat efficient 4680 tabless design in LiFePo and NCA chemistries.

3:25 I don't have to press my phone to unlock or lock my Tesla. It knows when I approach and leave.
Wonder what the insurance price difference is between this Tesla and the Porsche.
It takes about a minute for the automatic wipers to adjust. Leave it on auto and they do work.
Is the lka intrusive on normal roads ? If so can you turn it off permanently or do you need to turn it off each time
I just ordered one! 🎉
This is a well deserved facelift, however it is most certainly not my cup of tea! Great video Joel! ❤
Oddly, there are also "gear" controls above by the rear view mirror, to put it into drive, reverse or park.
Having to carry that plastic key would drive me nuts and to have to get your phone out to lock the car bloody nuts . I will stick with my MG5 lol😂
