Tesla Model 3 Six Months Later Review is LIVE!
ua-cam.com/video/L3ZuhG8mdFA/v-deo.html
3 months for me as well. Fantastic car. Purchased base model 3, white with no options. Just installed aftermarket white seat covers. Absolutely beautiful! Most fun car I've ever owned.
Glad to hear it’s working out for you and that you’re enjoying it as much as I am.
Got a link? Cost?
@@akspartan1 ts.la/jaesun318070
Bro where did you get the seat covers and how much did they cost
@@gsr7779 amzn.to/40UB4wN I highly recommend! I made a review on them, check it for a closer look.

Just bought a model 3 on line yesterday. Getting delivery on Friday. I’m 81 years old and enjoyed the on-line purchasing experience. 😅 just hope my experience is the same as yours.

I just picked up the cheapest base model today. I don't care about the refresh. I've learned that there will always be something "better" down the road. That's how time's arrow works. Make the decision in the now, without speculation or rumination, then enjoy the path the decision puts you on. We can never know how things "might have been"
Congrats!
Nice - agree on the “always something better” 😅 With newer models, you have to worry about all the new bugs and typical issues with a new generation 👍
I also went with the cheapest base model and picked up 14 April. I’m also blown away by the acceleration and overall performance. I’ve already racked up 2800 miles and I’ve had zero issues with fitment or anything else. Enjoy your videos!
Glad to hear you’re enjoying it and have no issues so far! It’s a great car!!
What is your real driving range?
@@ChauvyRocco I can’t say. I’ve yet to test it. I drive 110+ miles round trip. If I leave at 100% I’ll make it back home at about 46-50% depending on how fast I drive, if sentry mode was used and how hot it was that day. I only have level 1 charging right now so I would need to hit the super charger 1 day a week (Wednesday).
What is your range like?
So I did my Model 3 test ride in Libertyville and while I loved certain aspects of it, such as the immediate acceleration, excellent audio even with the base system, the high tech screen, the beautiful look of the vehicle and all of functionality. A couple of things kept me from immediately pulling the trigger. 1. Regen brakes - the near constant pressing of the accelerator seems like it could become fatiguing. 2. Tiny side view mirrors - on I-94 it was hard to peer left or right to see what's coming up on you. 3. Difficult to see out of the back window using rearview mirror. 4. Overall complexity of controls. While trying to adjust the mirrors, somehow the audio went to the highest level. I imagine that with a little time, some of these could be overcome. My worry was my wife would panic if she ever had to drive my vehicle for any reason. So I'm holding off as I continue to watch more video reviews on suggestions, etc. One guy said aftermarket wide angle mirrors helped a lot.
Makes total sense. I will say the regen breaking you get used to it and now I personally prefer it, mainly because I almost never am switching between pedals anymore. I think you could turn it off too if you don’t like it.
I got mine from Lisle, IL. I drive everyday on I 80 in the insane East West derby. The Regen I don't use because I click on autopilot and it accelerates and slows down for me. Heck I even let it steer a lot of the time. The side mirrors do seem small so I turn on the cameras and it takes care looking out the back windows as well. The car rocks and the more I drive it the more I love it.
Besides floor mats get a pillow. It really made the drive a lot more comfortable.
Man, you hit every nail on the head! I rented a 2023 Model 3 for 3 days. I found exactly the same concerns. While I absolutely loved the car in general I my wife really struggled with it’s ultra tech. We ended up with a 2023 Kia Nero EV. I guess I’ll have to wait another 3 years for my Tesla 😂
You can set regen to low. It’ll feel almost like a cad that just has a little bit of engine braking.
You could also turn on creep so the car creeps forward when you take the foot off the break (I think I never tried haha)
Nice video man!!❤❤
Awd is a must for some people living in snowy regions. Fyi if you live where it snows often long range and awd will be worth the upgrade for you, you’ll plow through snow and won’t have to worry about it!
Great video! Which I feel the same way about my S550 Mustang!
The mustang is 🔥
I just traded in my 2018 Mustang Ecoboost for a Tesla Model 3 yesterday.
@@keijuhl How are you liking the Model 3? Is the screen easy to get use to and control?
I'm currently renting one from Hertz for a week. I've owned fast cars before, but haven't had one for quite awhile. I'm very satisfied with the acceleration, not having any lag is the impressive part. I guess I got the very basic model because I'm not very impressed with the audio. The audio in my 2022 Jeep with 19 speakers definitely sounds better. I surprised that it doesn't seem to have lane change assist or warning. Or maybe I need to learn something. I also got dependent on Android Auto or Apple Carplay. For some reason I thought I'd be able to do that in the Tesla 😀 . The factory navigation isn't bad though.
How does the rear wheel drive work when you're driving on snowy/slick road during Chicago winter?
9:10 one of the benefits of getting the old model is it may still have the steering column stalks - one of the biggest rumours is that the stalks have been removed and replaced by buttons on the wheel for both gear / direction selection and turn signals. I think honestly I wouldn't enter a purchase if they don't come with stalks I would have walked away from the brand and looked for something else just around the corner - if they do go down that path I think they will turn off far more potential buyers than they think especially at a time when so many more new options are just about to land.
Looks like you’re right
The aftermarket guys already have stalks on the market for highland M3.
Great review. Happy you’re enjoying that car
Thanks for the comment, it’s been a blast so far!
@@JSLReview That is good to hear
Standing in the rain trying to get the phone to connect is the reason I bought the keyfob, which works flawlessly. Nicely done review, on a professional level and one of the best I've seen done of the car. It should be very helpful for the newbies.
I REALLY like the headlights on the current M3, the "leaked" headlights on the new refresh don't look as good to me.
Yeah you’re not alone a lot of people are split on it. Will have to see wha the final ones look like before making my final decision.
The new headlights will look a lot more like other chinese EV sedan offerings so the revamp actually renders the new version less differentiated as before
My dream car is the 2011 Ferrari California! I love your content so much, Jaesun! Keep it up!:)
I highly recommend you get one and do a review on it!
How were those standard misaligned panels gaps?
I have had my 2023 model 3 performance since February this year and I’m thrilled with my purchase, best car I have ever owned and I have owned many, S/F :-)
Glad to hear you’re enjoying it!
We just ordered one first time test drive we loved it ..
I’m debating on the model 3 long range or performance
How purchase timing works with federal ev tax credit? For ex. You are eligible based on last year tax return but you might be getting raise this year and may not fall under income bracket??
im thinking about getting a tesla model 3 base but im wondering if the rwd is enough for winter because i live in canada quebec and the snow is quite intense during the winter and im worried that the car wont be able to handle well
I bought the model 3 SR. I love this car. I was coming from a 2011 Nissan versa. I don’t mind the sound system. To me it works for what I listen too. The range is short put so far it’s been working for me.
I was rocking a versa not too long ago too, congrats on the M3!
You mentioned low range. This is rated at 272 miles- are you seeing far less?
I just ordered my M3 rear wheel white on white yesterday (Friday). They said to come and pick it up on Tuesday- I'm pumped!
Congrats! Let me know how delivery goes!!
M3 is bmw u bell end
FYI to those watching outside the USA - All MY2023 models delivered to S/E Asia, Australia & NZ still have USS.
You got the $7,500 Fed Tax credit and probably ~ $2k for inventory. That is a no brainer to do the 2023 M3 vs 2024.
Hi JSL , I watched your both Model Y and Model 3 videos. Just as Curiosity Did you Trade-in Model 3 to Model Y as Model Y is the best car currently. I bought Model 3 thought of trade-in to Model Y. what are your thoughts? . Is it worth of trade-in to Model Y with Model 3?
Anyone complaining about the base audio system - go use that money to buy a topping D90 and A90D and a pair of Hd800s's or HE1000 v2s and then enjoy some audio more sublime than anything a car will produce. Obviously prices vary a lot but that's about $3k there. You don't even need such high end dacs and amps. I run an SP200 and a Schiit Modi3.
You make really nice videos, and it would be awesome if your voice stayed at a more consistent volume while speaking.
Facts! The rwd is plenty speed unless you’re coming from a mustang
Thanks man I am about to pull the trigger on one
Use my referral code if you want free Tesla credits! ts.la/jaesun318070
I got mine in March, model 3 performance, and I’m glad I did. I had no issues with panel gaps, door alignment, etc. However, I had the same issue with my phone not opening the door. I have an older model iPhone, I had to unlock my phone first then it’ll open. I decided to get the key fob, and now I no longer have any more issues with it. It drives like a dream.
agree 100% with your review
Glad others feel the same way!
I want one now, but I’m going to wait for the announcement. I’m really into FSD and I want to see if they put in hardware 4 in the new model
Yeah make sure they’re rolling out hardware 4 with the new radar system if FSD is of interest, most of the cars right now only have the updated cameras.
MY RWD has HW4 and the upgraded cameras.
She that’s what is holding me back. Should I get the M3LR now. Or wait till the refresh M3. Grrrr
Hard not to wait and see considering they the drop is happening any day now
Wait for refresh , I am then I will get the performance
Did you have you Nema 14-50 installed? How much did that cost? So convenient!
The cost will depend on how far away your fuse box is from the garage. Mine was pretty far away so it cost me around 1200. There’s a tax credit for it though in the US to lower it a bit.
I’m ordering a Model Y as a new family car and then afterwards I’ll get the Hyland Model 3. The model Y should hold me over until then😅
Nice plan, the model Y is great and the new model 3 is exciting
I would be interested but in Ontario, Canada we only get a 5000 rebate from the fed government. The province has no promos so these cars are well over 60k Canadian and are just too expensive
I will say Tesla vision is not the same as USS but software updates are coming to fully replace it my guess is that they haven’t fully refined it yet
That’s good to hear! They did a good job using vision for autopilot, hoping they can replicate it for park assist!
Frankly, the looks of the 2023 Model 3 are better in my opinion; that nose is just totally unique, and the new design begins to look like everything else out there. I have taken several over-the-road trips so do appreciate the extra range (especially in West Texas, where there are few chargers). But I completely agree that with a home charger (easy to wire into the circuit box yourself with a pair of $9.00 plug-in breakers from Home Depot and some no. 6 wire), you're good to go for 90% of driving needs.
By the way: you forgot to mention the best part of no gas stations... no 'roll food' and 'big gulps' and other junk food! Your health gets a big boost!
That was true until Bucee’s got on board!
I do prefer the look of the current M3 exterior vs Highland, but Highland interior and new features are definitely a move up.
Got my Model 3 RWD last Monday and I love it. Im confused by the park assist. When Im in reverse I see by back up camera and both side cameras...how do people still not know if they are going to hit something? Are people not looking at the cameras or something? I didn't have an older model so maybe its just something Im not understanding
Congrats! What configuration did you go with. Reverse isn’t the issue for me, it’s pulling into my tight garage, no front bumper camera.
@@JSLReview ahhh, that makes sense. I back in every time so that totally slipped my mind. I went with the RWD, white, with the 19in rims.
For many of the reasons you mention, I am thinking of getting one now rather than waiting for the refresh.
Of the reasons you listed, one that has a lot a merit with me is the "tried and true" factor rather than rilling the dice on the new changes.
If it turns out that part of the refresh is to have a Model S style instrument cluster behind the steering wheel, the I will regret buying now.
I consider the Model 3 not having instumentation in front of my eyeballs to be a serious flaw in the design of the car.
Excellent aftermarket displays are available for $200-500. They plug into the car and bring over a lot of info from the main screen. I’m thinking about it, but ok with the main screen for now.
I love my 2023 base 3.
Actually glad I didn't get the refresh.
4:45 disagree with ford's as the premium mats are really nice and so are their weather mats... But for telsa I agree... Also do they even have weather mats?
They do but you have to order them separately and often they’re out of stock
I have a question. Does anybody have issues with Model 3 leaning to the right? My car is doing that consistently and they mentioned that the Tesla’s are designed for flat roads and on any other it does that. I have to hold the steering so tight while driving and the Tesla service team has still not able to fix it after 3 visits. I don’t know what do I do. Any help would be appreciated.
That seems to be an evasive answer from the mechanics. The car needs to go straight, on flat, straight roads, however it might pull a bit to the right on certain roads, depends.
Check the tyres and wheels geometry.
The bigger they are the harder they fall. Point is that Teslas are the most talked about cars as they are a new brand and of course different. Plus, every single brand and car has its negatives. I bought the lowest price Y and love it. You are not made to feel you’ve spent £8000 less. It is so fast and the range (half of the range of my diesel car) is just nut an issue with home charging. Love it. But…. The low speed ride quality I absolutely hate. That for me the only neg.
Yeah the base model Y is quite appealing with its recent price cuts and access to its full ev tax credit. What issue are you experiencing with the low speed ride quality?
Really the one thing holding me back on buying an electric vehicle is the insane cost of buying a battery replacement. It's at least $15,000. Sure, you're never buying gas or paying for oil changes and it'll likely be at least ten years before you have to do it but that's still an insane price.
Costs will come down eventually
@Mickiii P Eventually but until they do I'm not buying an electric car.
@@rmwright11221979 well ya got decent ish warranty for now I just wish Tesla offered extended
There's an 8 year 100,000 mile warranty on battery and drivetrain. The battery likely will outlast a gas car. Even if in 10 years the battery needs replacement, those batteries I can virtually guarantee will be way cheaper than today's, probably 1/3 the cost.
@@wemakecookie 🤞🏼
Well i wouldn't worry, you can just go and trade in for the newer model, it will cost but don't think that much.
Does anyone own an EV and live in an apartment? If so, how often and where do you charge? Also, how do you get over-the-air updates? Thanks a bunch.
I live in an apartment building and charge at DC fast chargers in the public and connect to mobile hotspot on my cell phone to do OTA updates
@@cunninglycalculated4583 Thanks!
Apartment here,
I charge like 2 times a week. Depending on how much I drive. But I have some free months of charging at supercharges so I just go there
@@rentfreeinheads8995 Thanks. I’m a month in to owning a Tesla and am doing what you are. It’s not ideal, but works. I’m hoping the battery will hold up long term doing this. Thanks again.
@@typical-dad314 what have you done for the updates?
For the last weeks I couldn’t stop thinking should I go for 2023 Long range or wait for 2024 , the price now is good for 23 , but I will not be happy if they did a facelift for 24 !! 😭
The leaks seem pretty legit at this point, might not be a bad idea to wait and see?
@@JSLReviewwhen does Tesla officially release new models every year ?
I like the current look of the model 3, the leaks look so baddd 😭
I want to hurry up and get a model 3 now because I know when they release the new model 3, it, will be well above 45K
Just purchased the model 3 long range and pick it up Tuesday. For the prices right now you really can’t beat it. I’m positive the new model is going to add some $$$$ where you might be kicking yourself in the rear
Waiting on my delivery 🤞🏾. May 21- jun 4 . model 3 performance 2023
Congrats, keep us posted on when it’s official! What color did you go with?
The 2023 Tesla Model 3 is likely to offer impressive performance, range, technology, and autonomy, with innovative design and features.
Well said, I feel as though I get all that!
Dude… performance is SO much better than base model. It’s AWD and I don’t know where you live but that in itself is HUGE and it’s faster, heavier, quicker, better features, etc… these are things I think would be beneficial for you to read into prior to a review.. just FYI.
Of course the performance is going to be more feature rich, you’re paying $13k more for it. I’m not suggesting one is “better” than the other, it all comes down to individual use case. For me and what I need, the performance isn’t worth it.
I didn’t realize they changed the sound system
Yeah it’s only the base model 3 that comes with the partial premium. It’s still really good though IMO
I'm honestly not big on the Refreshed model 3. Maybe I'm coping, but I also really don't want capacitive touch turn signals and gear shifting. I like the stalks.
Haha yeah I feel the same way
Bro you did the right thing
I guess if I drive 650 miles a week and spend like 500 a month in gas It makes sense to get this 😮.
For sure, if you can charge at home, the savings will practically pay for the car because of how much you drive.
us buyers who bought from january-april 17 get $7500 tax credit right? it is not retroactive now that its $3750?
Nice you hit the window for the full credit!! Which configuration did you go with?
@@JSLReview i went white/white, but standard rims. one thing id love to improve is the audio but the base is still solid! love your vids man, keep em comin! 😆
@@Kevin-yj6dq nice the white on white is dope, enjoy it man. Thanks for the support, I appreciate it!!
did you get ppf?
Yep full front PPF! Gives me so much peace of mind
I'm not a fan of the brown color on the dashboard... Should be black
Virginia paying more in property tax each year. Therefore, cancelling out the tax credit
This or the Prius Prime
Bro have tesla 3 months and already buying new tyres on Rakuten 😂
Watch when they get cheaper I will get one of those the shape of t3 is bad as hell
Waiting in line at gas station? Your mean tesla charger
Do you have any rattles?
None for me, hoping it stays that way
Bro over here saying ‘they’re gonna turn the 3 into the S’
How will a $40k car not have a floor mat? Really Tesla!
90%? It depends on were you live 0-60 in the 5 second range is pretty normal these days for anything least bit sporty... Like my 2020 Ecoboost premium mustang that I got for $34k would beat your Telsa off the line and on the track road or Oval because of it's 5.4 secound 0-60 and light weight front end and just being a pony car. And I'm pretty sure any sport trim of any mainstream cars would to... Which where I live most people mostly drive muscle cars or trucks so yeah your beating more like 30% here... And when you do get into the 5 second 0-60 you get that telsa feel as my mustang can do it to... As gravity is gravity so it does not matter your power train... which BEVs don't put all there power down like in theory they can becuase you are limited by modern tires and steel... Which my ecoboost can break the tires loose with Traction control on I've never seen a telsa do the same.
Nobody asked for a thesis
Sure but you're comparing cars that are purchased for their speed. This is just a family sedan base model. A performance Model 3 would absolutely smoke 99% of cars.
Too many adverts 👎
Wow....40% less range in the cold winter? WIth the standard-range model, that reduction really hurts.
Also, your experience agrees with so many other Model 3 owners: bluetooth door unlock can be buggy and unreliable.
That’s what I should have bought iam not smart only smart guys drive tesla #3
Every winter you lose half your range. I'll stick to Toyota
♥️
Pretty much just an Ad.
First !
Thanks for watching and for the support!
Nope…
Don't buy the tesla model 3 yet, it drops to 35k and will be refreshed.
When will it drop?
@@PinkPeach888 predicting in July. If it didn’t happen in July. It will not happen in 2023.
Do you speak like that in real lifeeee?
Kinda annoying 😂😊
Too soon... purchased, that is; perhaps
