    These are the videos I enjoy from you. Nice video.
    I have the refreshed M3 LR I took delivery in March. I have over 4000 mi and I love this car my first EV too. I am only getting Tesla. Every time I get to drive it, it literally puts a smile on my face

    Here from Holland. Own the exact same car. I like your videos. Usually surprising topics or items! You're doing fine. You are also just yourself, which I can appreciate. A lot of information is simply correct. Just like, for example, consumption that is exactly as mine with fairly normal driving behavior. During Yoke installation you were a bit wrong by not disconnecting the 12V battery from your airback, but otherwise self-taught and there is nothing wrong with that. Looking forward to your next video :)

    Great video, I got exactly same car for 10 days now and loving it. Here in Lithuania we only have one Tesla Supercharger, but 2 new ones are opening in different locations and so far it's for free. There are also a few other charging stations that are completely free (though quite slow) and some faster ones that are not very expensive. As an EV owner I also get free parking anywhere in public parking spaces and 5000 EUR back subsidies from gov. Overall these are great benefits and I got more than enough range. Though winter time will be significantly reduced.

    Nice video and informative. How is the charging situation in Portugal? I’ve seen videos that most charging stations are always full and waiting especially in toll roads.

    Its a bad idea taking a Tesla for a test drive ,it was the best experience I had driving a car,we are expecting our model 3 long range RWD in December,got 0.99% apr on hp which is a great deal,WLTP says 702 km ,we will see about that.

    I don't understand. You say you are not emotionally connected to the car, but there are so many videos and recordings with this car. Did you also shoot and research with those other cars?

    hi, are you happy with the absence of sensors and lack of cameras when city driving / parking ? also about the reliability of automatic wipers?

    • @europeinatesla
      @europeinatesla  3 місяці тому +1

      The lack of sensors before used to be really bad, but since they updated the software to use computer vision to reconstruct the obstacles etc, it's actually really good! I'm surprised how good it is.
      The wipers are the worst thing on this car. I always use manual control when it's raining because it never gets it right...

    How do you charge the car? Is it a normal plug in the garage? How many kms can you charge during a night of charging?

    • @europeinatesla
      @europeinatesla  4 місяці тому

      Yes - it's just the normal Tesla Mobile Connector. It charges at up to 13A @ 220V = 2.86kW so around about 7-10km/hour if I am using around 400km range on 57.5kWh capacity as an estimate.

    I can´t wait to get mine, i hope for 2025 the portuguese government will bring back the incentives...and i hope the price drops till the end of the year, in august you got a discount of +-2000€ in new models, no more discount from Tesla, and referral code doesn´t work...😤

    How many hours to charge with normal charger from 15% to 100?

    • @europeinatesla
      @europeinatesla  4 місяці тому

      Do you mean the mobile connector charger?
      If so, 85% is around 50kWh - it charges at around 13A @ 220V = 2860W (2.86KW)
      50/2.8 = 17.85 Hours
      around 18 hours

    Kind of surprised by the lack of emotional connection to the car. I own a model 3 highland too and it’s the most exciting experience and strongest emotional connection with a car I ever had - simply put it’s like driving in the future. And it will be even better with full self driving. Which other car improves over time ?

    • @europeinatesla
      @europeinatesla  3 місяці тому

      It's definitely a fun car for sure and it looks pretty. I think it's probably also because of how common it is here in Portugal - there are SO many of them due to the incentives and I also have a white one like everyone else haha.

    Just commenting on your point of buying experience. Unfortunately the concept of buying a car being turned into a commodity item (can on beans) is somewhat disconcerting but I don’t Tesla understands the transitory nature of the market.
