Thoughts on Tesla's new steering wheel? 💭
Its disgusting, ugly, boring and impractical. Those turn signal buttons are insane, how are you supposed to use them when turning at a roundabout and having to find your buttons when the steering wheel is upside down.
Steering is a life and death issue. I can’t see a problem with steer by wire if redundant systems are built in, similar to aircraft
@@EuphoricEugeneI think you just don’t……just like generations of BMW drivers……at least Tesla had the honesty to remove the redundant stalks! 😂
sucks😂
Love it. Drove mercedes for 12 years and I am impressed w new model 3. Sporty and simple. Haven’t had any issues getting used to haptic feedback turn signals. I don’t think you would if you are signaling before turning the wheel as you should anyway 🤷🏻♀️
I used to be a tesla hater and now I got my new model 3 and I’m in love 😍 Had some fears around not having stalks, one pedal driving and all the “standard” things a regular car has but I got used to the Tesla in a day or two. I don’t think I’d go back to a gas car!!! Great vid thank u❤
Awesome! Thanks for sharing! 🙏👍🏼
Just ordered mine after a test drive. The removing of stalks is really not an issue. Such a great car overall.
Awesome! When do you take delivery? 🙏🙏
@@npoleary Hopefully within 4 weeks. I live in Norway and they reduced the price by about 10% which makes it really attractive. You can get a standard model in Norway at around 27000 GBP
@@npoleary BTW great review Nick. Love your videos. Have been following you since Mercedes days
Thank you! Tesla Tips and Tricks coming soon! My plan is to make content for all! They’ll be Mercedes stuff and Tesla stuff too!
Best looking car on the road by far
I'm looking to get one next year. Best review of a Tesla I've seen so far. Thanks Nick.
Thank you! 🙏 glad you enjoyed it! 👊🏼
I like the updates they have made. Keep showing us these videos. Although I am team Mercedes, I like knowing as much about other manufactures.
Thank you! 🙏 will do!
About the 'wood' in the previous Model 3: I totally agree. This alone would've been a no go for me!
A question: what area are you driving in at the end of the video? Beautiful nature!
Aha thanks for watching!
That was the New Forest in the South of the UK
I am lucky enough to have collected a new model 3 standard range a few days ago. Fantastic electric car. I know they have removed the stalks but to be honest most people (including me) get used to it. I don’t love it but I don’t despise it either. The small annoyance I have is that the automatic windshield wiper do not work too well at this point, especially important in the UK. Also strangely the quietness in the cabin almost alienates you from what is going on in the road, quite strange, almost like removing one of your senses. Other than that, fantastic car
Ah amazing thanks for sharing!
I know it’s so quiet, I genuinely got into it, got up to the speed limit and was like wow…this is quiet. I know what you mean, it’s surprising out good it is.
Nice!
My only bone to pick is not having HUD. I have it in my MB and I find it indispensable. That would be even more pronounced without an instrument cluster.
That would be cool! Definitely in the Tesla Community I have seen that being suggested multiple times. If I ever find the right person to ask, I’ll share why they don’t have one.
I’m leasing one in September when my BMW i3 lease is up and saw a while back there’s an aftermarket device for around 3-400US.
Model 3 performance arriving on the 12th of June. I cant wait!
Absolutely no issues with no stalks. In most cases it is way easier to use than stalks.
Oh wow! Not gonna lie, slightly jealous 😅
I really want to film that one, I’ll email Tesla tomorrow and chase them 😅
Well, I’m probably going to get one someday, until there I continue with my Mercedes Benz e220d station 😊
After I see your video, I really want a Tesla 🤔
I know literally when I first got into the new one I was like…oh wow this is quiet…
Thank you for watching!
Tezzzlaaaaah
What is the the range at 120 km per hour ?
I hope to do a range test in an EV for everyone so if I can get my hands on a Tesla again I’ll be sure to try it out!
As with all EV’s it depends on the gradients, the traffic, the ambient temp, how many people are in the car, the size of the wheels, with or without air con and more. They use WLTP to give you a range figure in a controlled way which you can beat if you know how to beat it.
But travelling at 70mph in the winter will be a bit different to travelling 70mph in the summer.
At the stated 318 miles, to answer it here I would hope that it would be somewhere just under 300 miles. Travel at 60mph and you’ll most likely beat the range quoted (in the summer that is)
Performance model coming aoon🫣
How did you find the seats with long legs?
Basically the same as most hatchbacks, perfect for driving, but I can adjust about fit behind myself if the seat is adjusted slightly
Was thinking more the drivers seat, some say it doesn't have much support for longer legs@@npoleary
Oh for the driver? Yeah it’s absolutely fine, I could have gone back further if needed!
I inspected this car coming into the country 😏
What the actual car I drove? 😅
@@npoleary yeah, I do the vehicle inspections when they come into the country, I remember putting the reg plate on
That’s cool! 😎
Having compared D- and D-AUTO on my EQB, I absolutely am not understanding the love for One Pedal Drive. It's just horrendous, as if your foot is glued to the pedal. After a week of D-, and going back to D-AUTO, this felt so liberating.
Haha just user preference! I can drive on both but if I take my foot off the pedal, it always reminds me how quick it brakes! 😂
I’d rather it glide down the road and I read the road further ahead
I have a 2 years old Mercedes EQA 350... didn't went for the Tesla mainly because of the cheap interiors. Comparing the EQA to the new model 3 what do you think are the major diferences? Thanks, love your channel :-)
Thank you! Glad you enjoy the videos!
So did you drive a Tesla Model 3 back when you were shopping and test driving cars? 🤓 what did you think back then?
@@npoleary I rode one, never actually drove it… not having the dials in front of the steering wheel and the cheap plastics threw me off immediately…
Takes a day of driving to get used to it
I found myself looking at the wrong place when I was back in my own car 😅
@@npoleary a thing that gets on my nerves on Mercedes (and most EVs I think) is the up to reverse, down to drive… Arrgh… at least on your video I see that Tesla uses up to drive, down to reverse… now that makes sense loll
Great question.
The rear wheel drive model could be the longest range one if they put the long range battery in it.
Could be! Maybe they might do that IF it get’s an update next year!
Going for a free test drive in one of these in 3 weeks, can't wait to experience it
Ooo exciting!
Please do come back and let me know! Or email me “contact@npo-media.co.uk”
I did that in January with no intention whatsoever of buying. I had a lovely bmw530e. That night I placed an order for the long range, delivered in late March and truly it makes all ICE cars feel dated…..A belter of a car. Moral of the story, if going for a test drive, be very afraid 😮
Yes. Congratulations Elon
Pretty sure he’ll still drive in a Model S or Cybertruck though
There's always some resistance to change. I'd take a stick-shift over an EV. However ... what happens if your dog paws the screen? Or a backseat kid gets the idea it would be fun to bounce a ball off of it? Or your wife's bracelet bangs against it? Or there's a software glitch (spilled coffee)? Controls or adjustments on a screen require the driver to take their eyes off the road. I had that problem (not in a Tesla) at 20mph, and quickly concluded that all adjustments (sound track, radio station, temperature, maps, addresses, etc.) would be made while the vehicle is stationary and in "park". I prefer buttons I can find by touch. Some drivers with glasses may have difficulty reading screens. All true for an S 63, too.
Some things can be done from memory almost like muscle memory. But yes being distracted by anything is not a good idea when driving. I would operate at most changing tracks, volume adjustment but it depends on the driving situation. If there’s a lot going on in front of me, then I won’t touch anything and my focus would be on that.
Alot of people have been pushing back on the stickless, you also have a gear selector below the phone charger and on the roof
Very true although I couldn’t work out when it appeared there 😅
It happened once for me
@@npoleary --- Just a note on Mercedes ... I have discovered what would appear to be a dumb mistake with the key fob for a cabriolet. You can use it to put the roof back up and roll up the windows. I was indoors when it began to rain, and through a window, pressed and held the "lock" button, expecting the roof to go up. The lights flashed, but nothing else. For some odd reason Mercedes wants you to be within three feet of the car for that magic to work, so you have to go out in the rain to put the roof up! Obviously, the car is capable of receiving a signal from 40 yards away. Why would they not let you raise the roof from there, and is there a fix?
They do that for everything, so closing the boot via the key, opening and closing windows you have to be right beside it.
Safety maybe for finger trapping? No idea…would be good if it worked some distance away.
Sorry, the controls are just too goofy - solutions to problems that don't exist. I don't want to have to hunt through menus on a screen for simple tasks like controlling my vents, much less the silly gear selection. Also, I want indicators in front of me, not to my side (which is why I also dislike the Mini interior). Cheapness should not trump ergonomics.
Fair enough! No harm in a car manufacturer trying something new though!
@@npoleary Some might disagree - I can't post links here, but search the internet for the woman who drowned recently because she got confused in her Tesla and accidentally put it in reverse. Yes, you can do that in a lot of cars, but with a physical, labeled shift lever of some sort I think it would be less likely. And taking your eyes off the road for vents, wiper speed, etc. is just not safe. This isn't a problem with just Teslas, as lots of car makers are removing buttons. But Tesla seems to be the most extreme case.
I think you’ll find that anywhere…I mean I have seen clips of someone trying to fuel their Tesla with actual fuel. Not sure if it was real or not (could be staged) but I think that would come down to the person or place they’ve bought the car from to show them.
I get what you’re saying though 🤓
Maybe I can make some tutorials on how it works!
Um ... "What it means to you and ME" (not "you and I [sic]"). So nice to know that even the Brits can't speak English! Twixt they's and the Aussies us'll have us a reel dielec'!
"You and I is the right phrase when we are the subject of a sentence (performing the action), and you and me is correct when we are an object in a sentence (receiving the action)." The English know how to speak English it's the rest that don't :)
@@UKDagnar ---- Somebody here doesn't appreciate Cockney rhyming slang. I just had a humorous post deleted for me. Edit: you're right. E.g. "You and I concluded what that meant to you and me."
The itty bitty speed display bugs me hahaha
It’s actually nice and easy to read, didn’t at any point think it was too small. Just the location gets you as it’s in a different place 🤓
I try to understand why one is fined for using a phone (if not auto) within vehicles and yet one can play around with a huge screen. Both distracting for driver but one legal and other is not. Go figure?
Euroncap are looking into this and apparently might be starting to grade car manufacturers on how easy it is to find the simple things
@@npoleary Hi Nick. Really appreciate your reviews. Started following after buying GLC43 nearly 3 years ago. Previously Audi’s and if honest probably prefer Audi but waiting for something to stand out. SQ6 etron ? Macan EV’s quite pricy. Not a fan a huge touch screens eg Tesla as want driving experience to be engaging. Keep up the excellent work.
Thank you! I’ll keep the videos coming!
With all this I why EV sales is falling and why Tesla as market leader is losing share price. Some thing does not gel……the new Toyota hydrogen engine?
Who said they’re falling?
They’re going up! Every day I see more and more…
share.icloud.com/photos/0a3HbLcLGjUFN4Kjdp2C2IkPQ
Not falling , but with the new introduction of BYD and Xaiomi obviously sakes get defrayed between them
I’m in NZ and EV’s sales have certainly fallen off a cliff particularly since new Government removed incentives and finally charging EV and hybrid users a Road User Charge instead of giving them a free ride and being subsidised by ICE owners like myself
Lol@ anyone still buying EVs.
But govts need to reverse this nonsense of car manufacturers putting all essential controls on the screen. Don't use your phones but spend all your time being distracted by the screen fiddling with the climate controls.
So I was wrong to buy a Mercedes EV?
All car manufacturers are doing their spin on EV’s in addition to their Petrol & Diesel options. Whereas Tesla have their Supercharger network which is very good with the integration in cars.
If you have a Mercedes, they have Mercedes me Charge which is a really good way of integrating public charging under one roof.
What’s better out of the two? Well that might be a video one day! 😜
Which Mercedes did you go for? 🤓
@@npoleary
I can charge at home - using Solar when the weather permits. Mercedes me works very well on the road. Very enjoyable car to drive and works for my family. We will change in 3 1/2 years when the leasing contract comes to an end.
Ooo nice! Wish I had Solar! 🙏
Free fuel! Haha
No, you were wrong to buy an EV period.
So minimalistic. Very very modern. I must be getting old! Is the build quality as good as competitors now? I remember when Teslas had big panel gaps. Interesting……
They look so plain nd boring
What’s your go to style in a car? 🤓
Outside it looks ok. Interior is bland and boring. I'll stick with Mercedes.
Me too
There’s a second part to this video coming out soon! I asked my subscribers their questions.
One question was, what I thought of the interior and design of the Tesla and a Mercedes EQC.
Keep an eye out on Tuesday as I found a really good analogy! 👊🏼
Do Mercedes have mechanic issues often?
I can only speak (long term) on my own car, it’s been great so far. Coming up on a year soon, I have no idea where the time has gone!
Exactly! 😊
