@@benjaminbenson3721im getting a 2021 this week as well. From my research most people say you’ll only notice a difference in cabin noise at higher speeds.
I think the data transfer USB port being in the glovebox only is so that sentry mode and teslacam footage is stored in a more secured area and can't be taken easily. The touchscreen would have to be accessed in order to open up the glovebox and take the footage versus opening the center console and taking the USB drive out.
Absolutely! That's exactly why Tesla introduced the USB port in the glovebox starting from the 2021 models. It's just that some people still liked to have data transfer capability in the center console in addition to the glovebox port so they could play music, etc off a USB drive. I personally only stream my music but guess there are still a few people that use USB sticks.
I really wish the US had the new tail light design. I’m not a fan of a single red LED strip for the brake light and turn indicator. I much prefer the outer light as the brake, and the inner strip as the turn signal.
Couldn't agree more! Don't see why they haven't started using the new tail light design globally yet. In the US there still seems to be a batch with the old design. All UK, AU and NZ models have the new design now.
I’m the UK and got a Unicorn car in Dec 21. Has the same faster motor 5.3 sec one and the 60kwh battery so get the 273 miles. Also got heated steering wheel and rear seats free. My USB in the front also work for data. Only thing I missed really was the new chip. Nice video. 👍
On thing to add: the new 12v battery is not only a improvment. It is not possible to charge it from outside if the car is completly to 0%. Only the Tesla Service Center can fix that, was it a great disadvantage, just in case.
I'm not aware of anything you have missed (and I did do some obsessive research before buying my 2022 M3) - so great job! Of course there were some additional features that came in during 2021 too. I think a side by side comparison of acceleration could be helpful for people, as its something some people fixate on. Although, while I was a bit worried that I might be disappointed with the 2022 M3 acceleration, I'm very happy with it, as in majority of situations, its still pretty impressive. The possible exception is that, to me, its not super impressive from zero speed (possibly due to 3D7 motor lower torque at zero speed?), but as soon as its say 30kph or faster, it pushes you into your seat very nicely. So might be interesting to compare both from 0 - 100 kph and say 50 - 100 kph?
Thanks so much mate! Yeap it's hard to do an exact model comparison with Tesla as they continuously make changes throughout the whole year... And looks like a lot of people are requesting the acceleration test so will work on sorting it out for a future video. That's a fantastic point you raise there so I will definitely be doing the test both from 0-100 km/h and 50-100 km/h.
Tesla upgrades are not from year to year, but from car to car... You get randomly new upgrades from one production batch to the next one :/ I think it is somehow ok, but they should mention this for new buyers since even their sellers are unable to know if your car will have or not a new feature. I got my m3lr an year ago, and they were totally unaware of the heated steering wheel (which I got, but someone else didn't even ordering just some day before me)
Yes you're absolutely right! Since Tesla has an agile approach to changes that they rollout in their production, it's really hard to do an exact side-by-side comparison for the year models to be honest. But totally agree that it would be nice to have some more transparency over which features the car assigned to you is getting.

Thank you! Very helpful. I got my Model 3 June 15th 2021 (almost a year :) ). Interesting updates. The only thing I would desire is really the tail lights. I have the 82kw battery so an upgrade on battery would be nice, but it's good 'nuff
Glad it was helpful! 😊 Tesla is always making continuous updates throughout the year and I'm sure most of us won't be changing cars every couple of years. It's a great car regardless and it's nice to at least get software updates that bring new features even for older models.
Uk 0-60 for 2022 is 5.8 but has everything else you say of too! Very much looking into getting one, such a good value EV imo for that cost and price point ❤️🙌😎
Yep 0-60mph is in 5.8s as shown in the video which translates to 0-100km/h in 6.1s (sorry I'm in NZ so mentioned metric units but also included imperial conversions in the video). It's a fantastic car for sure! We have had ours for about 8 months and it still feels fresh as ever 😊
That's a difficult task though. Apple needed over a decade to create ARM chips that can compete against traditional x86 chips. I would rather guess that once Intel/AMD come up with their own ARM chips then Tesla will switch to it.
The usb thing is probably for safety. The glovebox can only be opened when the car is unlocked, so trying to hack the car doesn't work unless the owner unlocks it
Yep for Sentry mode USB it makes perfect sense! But a handful number of people still used the center console USB ports for playing their music, etc off their drives which they can't anymore. Doesn't impact me personally but can be a nuisance for those that care. Apparently this change was done due to a chip shortage for controller chips used for data transfer...
@@EVKiwis I really like to use the 2 usb c ports in my M3 for plugging in wired controllers for the occasional gaming session at a SC. No need for any battery powered wireless controllers that could be empty the few times that I actually want to use them. I hope they add that functionality back at some point.
@@bfbf7fd7b8f878fb8f7b Great point! I hope so too... As now I have to do exactly what you mentioned using a USB hub plugged inside the glovebox which is much less convenient in my opinion.
Thanks for this very nice video @EV Kiwis 2022 model should no longer have the USS (ultra sonic sensors) - is that actually the case on your 2022 car ? Secondly, if there are no USS, do you still see distances in cm/inches when very close to walls or obstacles?
They need dual pane glass all around bad! What I don't understand is how so many cars with single pane are quieter, yet Tesla needs dual pane with added weight to quiet the car.
I couldn't agree more! Don't know why they left out the rear windows when it was introduced in the front ones. And I would say Tesla (or any other EV) feels louder than other cars due to their being no other noises of the engine, etc. So the road noise is just more audible in the cabin than other cars.
Hello, Previous Tesla owners ran an experiment and found the reason being the glass top of the car. In typical cars, the roof has insulation that dampens road noise. The glass roof of a Tesla does not have insulation and there is no sound dampening. This is why they focused so much on the sound system - to distract people from the loud cabin
Hi! Do you know if the ride and the suspension has been more soft on the new 2022 model 3 long range, than on the 2021? Have tesla changed the dampers on the 2022? I have test driven both year models, and the 2022 seemed a little more smooth and soft in the ride, which was really nice 😃
Hey! Sorry I wouldn't be able to comment on the LR version with certainty but I haven't felt too much of a difference in the suspension performance between the RWD version of the 2022 & 2021 models. Tesla does use parts from different manufacturers sometime so there could surely be a difference

Unfortunately I don't have access to a LR model for comparison but most of the differences are the same as what's mentioned in this video. Two things that are different would be: 1) Range: 358 miles in 2022 LR vs 353 miles in 2021 LR. 2) Sound system: 14 speakers + sub + 2 amps in 2022 LR vs 13 speakers + sub + 2 amps. According to Tesla, reduction of a speaker has not caused any noticeable differences to the sound experience. Hope this helps!
Our Model 3 SR+ is a mash between the two of these. We got it in Dec 2021. It has the bigger battery and faster acceleration, heated rear seats etc, but no Ryzen CPU.

See why didn't the previous model 3 generations have dual lights for everything? 4:13 Like before it was only one white light for reversing. LIKE WHY?!
@@xoukilong nope - I got this checked by Tesla and this is how they previously came from factory... with just a single reverse light. Where are you located? Might a region specific thing if your 2019 model had this.
Thank you for sharing, I'm curious though because my Model 3 2022 only have a select few of what you mentioned: my model 3 currently have: Intel ATOM chip and no heated wiper blades option, everything else listed for 2022 is there
Thank you so much! Sadly, the Model Y has not yet been released in NZ where I'm located but will certainly do plenty of videos on the Y when it gets here 😊
Need help you guys. Looking to buy a model 3 and I have two options to pick from they are both being sold by private owners. I didn’t see a lot of major changes from this video except for miles and battery . Option one 2021 model 3 with 13k miles standard range wants $35,000 Option two 2022 model 3 standard range with 16k miles wants $36,000 . I drive to work round trip 60 miles no hills and no snow. Which one would you pick and why?
1:45 exactly how is ryzen using more power? it has more tdp? doesn't it just finish the task faster, and therefore can idler longer at low power usage? and even if it does use more power - is it even noticable on your range? because lets say atom idle power at 10w, and ryzen idle at 30w, then even if it is 3 times as much, its basically nothing in comparison to a 55kwh battery....
I would have expected both the chips to use similar levels of power but this doesn't seem to be the case based on what I've read and what I was told by some Tesla reps (source: wccftech.com/amds-ryzen-cpu-reportedly-cuts-down-tesla-model-3s-driving-range/). It definitely seems to have higher phantom drain (which may or may not be completely due to this chip). I will do more tests on this and try report on real world differences if any.
You forgot to mention something different on the windshield. In fact, the 2 side cameras of the front camera block are now hidden by a black part in order to mitigate phantom brakings.
Oh really! I actually didn't come across this change anywhere and you're the very first person to enlighten me about this so thanks so much. I will dig deeper into this and see what percentage of 2022 model 3s actually have this change 😊
@@EVKiwis I have just broken my windshield on the motorway and once I went to a windshield dealer, we discovered the windshield ordered was not the same at this level (model 3 Performance, March 2022 from Shanghai factory). Even Tesla Service Center in France has changed some 2022 windshields and they had to remove them and replace with the right reference. It seems they didn’t care this change and were not fully aware about this. I was told it could seriously put the mess on autopilot (software a bit different to take into account these changes, physical camera calibration?) I can send you pictures by private email box
@@nanterre38 That's very interesting so thanks for pointing this out! Quite strange that even their service wasn't aware of this change. Hopefully you got your windshield all sorted in the end and didn't experience any autopilot issues. I would love you see the photos. Our contact email address is in our profile on youtube or you could use one of your social media links in the video description to get in touch.
@@EVKiwis I am replacing my 2019 Standard Range Plus Model 3 with the new 2022 Standard RWD Model 3 with LFP battery and I'm excited that the LFP battery can be charged to 100% often and degrades much less then then my current Nickle/Cobalt battery over time. I am hoping I won't notice the slightly slower 0-60 MPH speed.
@@MTMnet2008 that's certainly the best thing about LFP! Not having to worry about keeping it in a specific battery range makes world of a difference. We are almost approaching one year of owning our Model 3 and have only had 5-6km of reported range loss (when 100% charged) which is pretty decent I must say. I've driven both and can safely say that you won't notice the acceleration difference, unless you're comparing them side-by-side.

My 2022/Q1 Model3 has still the old rear lights. But anyway, I was one of very few people that got the car within 2 month, between order and get the car :-)
Ahh yes it must have been one manufactured in the first half of Jan which is why it was missing the light upgrade. Not a deal breaker and you must be glad to have the car in your hands so early compared to the wait people have to go through now for new orders 😊
Ah I see... My mid 2021 Model 3 (Shanghai build) had the hard plastic doors already so didn't realise it was soft plastic in the earlier 2021 models so thanks for raising this. It's hard to do an exact model comparison with Tesla as they continuously make changes to their cars throughout the year.

Could there be any market related differences in those features? Seeing you’re in NZ and I’m wondering if everything I the video also applies in the US.
Other than the new tail light design possibly being region specific to comply with regulations of UK, AU and NZ, all the other changes are global as far as I am aware.
I am based in New Zealand and all Model 3's here in the Australia/New Zealand always came with the floor mats. I know that the base model SR+/RWD in the USA don't come with floor mats but the Long Range and Performance models do. The front fog lights are also only present on these higher models. And the speakers also only changed on these higher models. Tesla reduced the premium sound package from 14 to 13 speakers. But these base models I was comparing don't have a speaker change. Hope this helps :)

I'm in Asia, Taiwan. 2022 Q3 delivery last week. Tesla gave me the old taillight FML I'm so angry. Is there anyway I can buy the euro updated version taillight with dual everything, much thanks ~
Hey sorry I'm not sure if you can buy official updated ones but there are some third-party ones that are slightly different that you could possibly look into... Might be worth getting in touch with Tesla service team to see if they allow you to upgrade.
Please make a video about regeneration mode which does not turn on the brake lights. this almost cased me to have accident. My front car in highway was EV and they slow down heavily with regen. braking and i found the slow down very late and almost hit the EV car with 120km/hr.
would have expected both the chips to use similar levels of power but this doesn't seem to be the case based on what I've read and what I was told by some Tesla reps (source: wccftech.com/amds-ryzen-cpu-reportedly-cuts-down-tesla-model-3s-driving-range/). It definitely seems to have higher phantom drain (which may or may not be completely due to this chip). I will do more tests on this and try report on real world differences if any.
Haha yes I know that's what it looks like but sadly that's how the old light design was in the 2021 Model 3 at least for the cars shipped here in the Australia/New Zealand region. Where are you based and when did you take delivery of your car? If it was near the end of 2021, you might the lucky few that have the 'unicorn' version of the Model 3 and hence have the new lights.

@@EVKiwis Fully agreed. My '21 has the winter option which was free. I'm looking forward to the availability of the Model Y in NZ. That has to be the next candidate upgrade for me...
Wonderful news!! We recently produced a new Yoke steering wheel with
a completely multifunctional wheel button for the Tesla 3 and Y. I wanted to quickly reach out and inform you that we currently have some

@@AndrewSimes Same here, looking forward to getting my hands on the Model Y too so let's hope its comes here before end of the year 🤞

Thank you! Very helpful. I got my Model 3 June 15th 2021 (almost a year :) ). Interesting updates. The only thing I would desire is really the tail lights. I have the 82kw battery so an upgrade on battery would be nice, but it's good 'nuff
Glad it was helpful! 😊 Tesla is always making continuous updates throughout the year and I'm sure most of us won't be changing cars every couple of years. It's a great car regardless and it's nice to at least get software updates that bring new features even for older models.

Pretty cool I got mine exactly the same day as you did but read on car sites that the 2021 Tesla so far is the best model within it's class.
This video was on point with great editing. Subbed.
Thanks Shaun, appreciate the sub! 🙂
Uk 0-60 for 2022 is 5.8 but has everything else you say of too! Very much looking into getting one, such a good value EV imo for that cost and price point ❤️🙌😎
Yep 0-60mph is in 5.8s as shown in the video which translates to 0-100km/h in 6.1s (sorry I'm in NZ so mentioned metric units but also included imperial conversions in the video). It's a fantastic car for sure! We have had ours for about 8 months and it still feels fresh as ever 😊

Best comparison video I've seen so far! Thank you!
Thank you, glad it was helpful 🙂
Great video! I’m trading in my 2 2018 models for 2 2022 LRs soon
Thank you! That's great news - it will be a decent upgrade for you as a lot has changed in the tech since 2018 😀
I hope Tesla reaches a point where they start developing their own ARM chips. Efficiency will be increased dramatically.
That's the dream! Pretty sure there have been rumours around this so expecting this to come in the future 😀
That's a difficult task though. Apple needed over a decade to create ARM chips that can compete against traditional x86 chips.
I would rather guess that once Intel/AMD come up with their own ARM chips then Tesla will switch to it.
The usb thing is probably for safety. The glovebox can only be opened when the car is unlocked, so trying to hack the car doesn't work unless the owner unlocks it
Yep for Sentry mode USB it makes perfect sense! But a handful number of people still used the center console USB ports for playing their music, etc off their drives which they can't anymore. Doesn't impact me personally but can be a nuisance for those that care. Apparently this change was done due to a chip shortage for controller chips used for data transfer...
@@EVKiwis I really like to use the 2 usb c ports in my M3 for plugging in wired controllers for the occasional gaming session at a SC. No need for any battery powered wireless controllers that could be empty the few times that I actually want to use them. I hope they add that functionality back at some point.
@@bfbf7fd7b8f878fb8f7b Great point! I hope so too... As now I have to do exactly what you mentioned using a USB hub plugged inside the glovebox which is much less convenient in my opinion.
Thanks for this very nice video @EV Kiwis
2022 model should no longer have the USS (ultra sonic sensors) - is that actually the case on your 2022 car ?
Secondly, if there are no USS, do you still see distances in cm/inches when very close to walls or obstacles?

They need dual pane glass all around bad! What I don't understand is how so many cars with single pane are quieter, yet Tesla needs dual pane with added weight to quiet the car.
I couldn't agree more! Don't know why they left out the rear windows when it was introduced in the front ones. And I would say Tesla (or any other EV) feels louder than other cars due to their being no other noises of the engine, etc. So the road noise is just more audible in the cabin than other cars.
Hello,
Previous Tesla owners ran an experiment and found the reason being the glass top of the car. In typical cars, the roof has insulation that dampens road noise. The glass roof of a Tesla does not have insulation and there is no sound dampening. This is why they focused so much on the sound system - to distract people from the loud cabin
@@PandanNyTV That's super interesting - thanks very much for sharing! 😊
Hi! Do you know if the ride and the suspension has been more soft on the new 2022 model 3 long range, than on the 2021? Have tesla changed the dampers on the 2022? I have test driven both year models, and the 2022 seemed a little more smooth and soft in the ride, which was really nice 😃
Hey! Sorry I wouldn't be able to comment on the LR version with certainty but I haven't felt too much of a difference in the suspension performance between the RWD version of the 2022 & 2021 models. Tesla does use parts from different manufacturers sometime so there could surely be a difference
Thank you for the video. You’re making me sell our v8 and get this instead 😜

Straight up, concise, no BS -> Sub earned ✅
Thanks Henry, appreciate the sub! 🙂
Very helpful video, thank you! Would like to know the differences between 2021 LR and 2022 LR too if possible
I’m wondering now if it was only the long range that got the powered trunk
@@ZackScriven No I think all Model 3s have powered trunk
Unfortunately I don't have access to a LR model for comparison but most of the differences are the same as what's mentioned in this video. Two things that are different would be:
1) Range: 358 miles in 2022 LR vs 353 miles in 2021 LR.
2) Sound system: 14 speakers + sub + 2 amps in 2022 LR vs 13 speakers + sub + 2 amps. According to Tesla, reduction of a speaker has not caused any noticeable differences to the sound experience.
Hope this helps!
Yes all Model 3s manufactured 2021 onwards have a powered trunk.
Our Model 3 SR+ is a mash between the two of these. We got it in Dec 2021. It has the bigger battery and faster acceleration, heated rear seats etc, but no Ryzen CPU.

Im waiting for my 22 M3 performance. Hopefully it arrives with improved rear windows. 🥰
Exciting! 😀 When is your delivery? Let's hope they make that change before end of the year.
@@EVKiwis I have no date yet, but between october and december according to Tesla. 😇
You missed out the headlight comparison. Tesla introduced projector headlights for 2022 model

Very succinct and informative video. Thank you for this.
See why didn't the previous model 3 generations have dual lights for everything?
4:13 Like before it was only one white light for reversing.
LIKE WHY?!
I totally agree, it never made sense to me either!
@@EVKiwis you know what the worst part is?!
I FUKING BOUGHT A THE MODEL 3 ON NOVEMBER!!!
FUKKKKKKK ME
thats weird. my 2019 has dual reverse lights like every car out there. maybe the led is out on this specific car?
@@xoukilong nope - I got this checked by Tesla and this is how they previously came from factory... with just a single reverse light. Where are you located? Might a region specific thing if your 2019 model had this.
@@EVKiwis Canada. I've heard there was a class action lawsuit from Quebec. 95% of orders between March 2019 and March 2020 deliveries got it.
Thank you for sharing, I'm curious though because my Model 3 2022 only have a select few of what you mentioned: my model 3 currently have:
Intel ATOM chip and no heated wiper blades option, everything else listed for 2022 is there
Thank you! Ah I think your car must be manufactured in early Jan 2022 where there were some variances in these features sadly.
I have the atom with no heated wipers but the 3D1 motor which you may also have so winner combo as it's quicker 😁

Need help you guys. Looking to buy a model 3 and I have two options to pick from they are both being sold by private owners. I didn’t see a lot of major changes from this video except for miles and battery .
Option one 2021 model 3 with 13k miles standard range wants $35,000
Option two 2022 model 3 standard range with 16k miles wants $36,000 .
I drive to work round trip 60 miles no hills and no snow.
Which one would you pick and why?
Just got a used 2022. The cabin is nice but could still be quieter. Anyone have a 2023 or 2024? Is it much better after 2022?
make the rear lights connected like audi a7
That would be pretty neat!
Would love an acceleration test please!
Just in the process of finding the right place to conduct this test as accurately as possible 🙂
@locksmack The "2022 vs 2021 Tesla Model 3: Acceleration Test" video is out now: ua-cam.com/video/VxS5xjj6Bok/v-deo.html
You’re going to pay the same price for a used 2021, might as well get a brand new 2022
Yep but the wait times on new deliveries are crazy right now which is why used ones are selling for insane prices 🤯
Good video
Thank you 😊
What about 4680 batteries, does the 2022 model 3 have that? or will it come in future models
*4680 Battery are only going in the Model Y cars for now. The Model 3 won't see that until late 2024.*
@@NatmanFilms hmm sadge. thank you
Yeah sadly the 4680 batteries are reserved for the Cybertruck and Model Y at this stage
I love my 22’ wouldn’t trade it for a 21’ and 10k
It's hard to argue that most of the changes in 2022 are certainly for the better!
1:45 exactly how is ryzen using more power? it has more tdp? doesn't it just finish the task faster, and therefore can idler longer at low power usage? and even if it does use more power - is it even noticable on your range? because lets say atom idle power at 10w, and ryzen idle at 30w, then even if it is 3 times as much, its basically nothing in comparison to a 55kwh battery....
I would have expected both the chips to use similar levels of power but this doesn't seem to be the case based on what I've read and what I was told by some Tesla reps (source: wccftech.com/amds-ryzen-cpu-reportedly-cuts-down-tesla-model-3s-driving-range/). It definitely seems to have higher phantom drain (which may or may not be completely due to this chip). I will do more tests on this and try report on real world differences if any.
You forgot to mention something different on the windshield. In fact, the 2 side cameras of the front camera block are now hidden by a black part in order to mitigate phantom brakings.
Oh really! I actually didn't come across this change anywhere and you're the very first person to enlighten me about this so thanks so much. I will dig deeper into this and see what percentage of 2022 model 3s actually have this change 😊
@@EVKiwis I have just broken my windshield on the motorway and once I went to a windshield dealer, we discovered the windshield ordered was not the same at this level (model 3 Performance, March 2022 from Shanghai factory). Even Tesla Service Center in France has changed some 2022 windshields and they had to remove them and replace with the right reference. It seems they didn’t care this change and were not fully aware about this. I was told it could seriously put the mess on autopilot (software a bit different to take into account these changes, physical camera calibration?)
I can send you pictures by private email box
@@nanterre38 That's very interesting so thanks for pointing this out! Quite strange that even their service wasn't aware of this change. Hopefully you got your windshield all sorted in the end and didn't experience any autopilot issues. I would love you see the photos.

Thank you! LFP battery has been around since the 2021 model. Anything particular you want to know? Would be happy to cover that in a video 😊
@@EVKiwis I am replacing my 2019 Standard Range Plus Model 3 with the new 2022 Standard RWD Model 3 with LFP battery and I'm excited that the LFP battery can be charged to 100% often and degrades much less then then my current Nickle/Cobalt battery over time. I am hoping I won't notice the slightly slower 0-60 MPH speed.
@@MTMnet2008 that's certainly the best thing about LFP! Not having to worry about keeping it in a specific battery range makes world of a difference. We are almost approaching one year of owning our Model 3 and have only had 5-6km of reported range loss (when 100% charged) which is pretty decent I must say. I've driven both and can safely say that you won't notice the acceleration difference, unless you're comparing them side-by-side.
is there a newer, 2023 version of model 3? I am looking to buy one in a couple of weeks.
Great presentation, well done.

I'd rather have the 2021 I think
Any particular reason why you say that?
@@EVKiwis faster, cheaper
I think they moved the usb thing to the glove box so if ur car gets broken into they cant take the usb so u have no video
I think you missed the passenger side lumbar support, which is missing in the 2022 model.
The passenger lumbar support has been missing even in 2021 models manufactured May 2021 onwards. Even the 2021 I have doesn't have it.
My 2022/Q1 Model3 has still the old rear lights. But anyway, I was one of very few people that got the car within 2 month, between order and get the car :-)
Ahh yes it must have been one manufactured in the first half of Jan which is why it was missing the light upgrade. Not a deal breaker and you must be glad to have the car in your hands so early compared to the wait people have to go through now for new orders 😊
You missed… POWER TRUNK! And the Model Y style wireless charging pads
Both of these features have also been present in all 2021 Model 3s manufactured March 2021 onwards.
I think that 2021 model Had soft plastic on front doors (lower part) and padding inside door compartment. Now it’s just hard plastic
Ah I see... My mid 2021 Model 3 (Shanghai build) had the hard plastic doors already so didn't realise it was soft plastic in the earlier 2021 models so thanks for raising this. It's hard to do an exact model comparison with Tesla as they continuously make changes to their cars throughout the year.

Could there be any market related differences in those features? Seeing you’re in NZ and I’m wondering if everything I the video also applies in the US.
Other than the new tail light design possibly being region specific to comply with regulations of UK, AU and NZ, all the other changes are global as far as I am aware.
Wow. Look at those things I can't afford. Great inspiration

I couldn't afford one until a few years back too so I'm sure you will make it! 😀
Doesn’t the 2022 also come with floor mats? What about the fog and speakers? That didn’t change?
I am based in New Zealand and all Model 3's here in the Australia/New Zealand always came with the floor mats. I know that the base model SR+/RWD in the USA don't come with floor mats but the Long Range and Performance models do. The front fog lights are also only present on these higher models. And the speakers also only changed on these higher models. Tesla reduced the premium sound package from 14 to 13 speakers. But these base models I was comparing don't have a speaker change. Hope this helps :)
super great video 😘😘

I'm in Asia, Taiwan. 2022 Q3 delivery last week. Tesla gave me the old taillight FML I'm so angry. Is there anyway I can buy the euro updated version taillight with dual everything, much thanks ~
Hey sorry I'm not sure if you can buy official updated ones but there are some third-party ones that are slightly different that you could possibly look into... Might be worth getting in touch with Tesla service team to see if they allow you to upgrade.
Please make a video about regeneration mode which does not turn on the brake lights. this almost cased me to have accident. My front car in highway was EV and they slow down heavily with regen. braking and i found the slow down very late and almost hit the EV car with 120km/hr.
Oh really? I personally haven't had an experience like this but will definitely pay closer attention and look into it.
Does the 2021 have the heat pump?
hmm i don't think using ryzen have any significant effect on the battery, and i think intel have the more power hungry and hotter chip
would have expected both the chips to use similar levels of power but this doesn't seem to be the case based on what I've read and what I was told by some Tesla reps (source: wccftech.com/amds-ryzen-cpu-reportedly-cuts-down-tesla-model-3s-driving-range/). It definitely seems to have higher phantom drain (which may or may not be completely due to this chip). I will do more tests on this and try report on real world differences if any.
curious if the 2023 model 3 will have changes as well..
Tesla is always making continuous changes without waiting for set yearly upgrades so I'm sure 2023 will have at least some changes...
Yes
I didn’t know about the rear lights
Do you like the new design?
@@EVKiwis sure. Looks more appropriate for such an expensive car
Mine is order getting it in sept 😀
That's awesome, congrats and welcome to the Tesla family! 😊
I actually like the 2021 tail lights more, its so clean
You're definitely in the minority 😊
arent the rear seats in the 2022 model taller as well promoting a less squated position while seated?
I haven't come across or read about this change anywhere. Do you have a source on this? This would be an awesome change though!
I think one of you rear back up lights is out ... I have a 2021 and it light both rear back up lights......... check into that...
Haha yes I know that's what it looks like but sadly that's how the old light design was in the 2021 Model 3 at least for the cars shipped here in the Australia/New Zealand region. Where are you based and when did you take delivery of your car? If it was near the end of 2021, you might the lucky few that have the 'unicorn' version of the Model 3 and hence have the new lights.
