2024 Tesla Model 3 Highland Review: THEY FIXED IT!! I FINALLY Get The HYPE...

[@RyanCowan]

I test drove this car yesterday. I’m coming from a BMW M135i. After test driving the Model Y, which I disliked due to the sloppy body roll, I hoped into the Model 3 and was sold. The only issue is I need AWD for a long muddy dirt road drive every 6-8 weeks so not sure how that will handle especially understeer. I’ll have to try to get access to a long range to check that out. Thanks for the review.

[@icy1007]

The AWD model will hand that muddy dirt road excellently.

Welcome to the Tesla family ❤ I got my MYP at the beginning of this month. Normally I only drive like 20 miles a day and in less than 3 weeks I’m at 1.4k+ miles. Love driving it!! Well FSD has been driving. It’s been very good

[@ThePantheons]

They added speed cameras in the latest update

[@Wankidy]

They didn't take away lumbar support. They took away your ability to adjust it. Its not like the sit lacks lumbar support.

[@Plen3716]

Great review and great car. We just got out long range and love it (especially in the pretty blue)! We haven’t had any issues at all with Tesla vision and it’s been really good. It has a great drive, range, comfort, practicality, price and the fit, finish and quality is (as far as I can tell) perfect. Amazing vehicle, great job Tesla!

The Long Range model is better in every way. The LFP battery is not a reason to get the base model instead.

In the older model 3, you could add a subwoofer and more speakers through DIY methods. I hope in the future I can do it.

[@R56Cooper]

Yes same here-- after driving the base model 3 rwd, this trim is more than enough for most drivers!🎉 also was very pleased with the base trim sound system!

[@GeorgeVargheseParet]

Do they have a reliable blind spot indicator, cross traffic alert or 360 camera. If these basic safety features don't work, I am not sure what they really fixed.

[@GDM22]

Not sure why they would need a traditional blind spot indicator, a map of all the cars around you is visible with a quick glance to the centre screen.

[@GeorgeVargheseParet]

@@GDM22 1. When you are trying to make a lane change at high speed you want your attention focused on the lane you are changing to. 2. The screen is hard to see when it is bright outside and you are wearing sunglasses.

[@thehulk10]

1 thing only. Teslas, all of them, are the safest cars anyone can buy by a longshot. You complain about the little things but these cars are already way safer than 99% of the cars on the road.

[@tommornini2470]

The new 3 has red LEDs at the bottom of A pillar, and all cars, even back to 2016 cars now show on screen when signals are activated and on screen side cameras are active.

[@mighty_bunny]

Dark interiors don't show dirt as easily. Or, devil's advocate, dirt has nowhere to hide in light interiors! 😁 And personally speaking, that would motivate me to clean the interior more frequently.

[@tudoralexandru8740]

got the white ones. a lot nicer than the black ones. totally recommend them. very easy to clean

[@CarSauce]

U got it 👉👈

[@deepdiver0101]

how does driving feel compared to the Y? Our version of the Y has the stalks (dont care either way) but also the premium sound system, and the space. New 3 space is likely sufficient for our family of 4 that does not do camping road trips, never had issues with space for hols in a decent sized sedan. Still curious about quietness and softer ride in highland 3 compared to 2024 version of the Y. Great review though.

[@Brobiee]

Does the model y have same facelift

[@Sparty081]

It will next year. 2025

[@mickosmile850]

You missed the emergency release in the rear passenger doors in the 2024 Model 3 Highland. Thats a major safety update.

[@GDM22]

You can add another $750 to the price increase as the referral discount was removed .

[@ashleycook9475]

[@GXKid06]

Teslas white seats are actually a much softer material and very easy to clean. The black seats feel rubbery and they bubble and tear if you don’t clean them. The white seats are made from cactus and are more durable.

Hello, This is my fav car review channel in Australia. I'm waiting for the new Hyundai santa fe review😄

[@icy1007]

Even at 80% with the Long Range model, it has substantially more range than the base model at 100%.

[@tudoralexandru8740]

i think the LR with 80% = SR with 100%

[@tommornini2470]

The difference is that with NMC batteries, optimal care is 80% to 20% on a regular basis. The LFP batteries in base model are 0-100% on a daily basis. If you charge at night, both have plenty of range. 👍🏻

[@dingbatt]

At least with the redesigned taillights they have incorporated a proper orange indicator. The old Model 3 (and Y) taillights are so obviously designed for the North American market and had to have the orange indicators shoehorned in. It looks better than my 2022 Model 3 but isn’t enough of an upgrade for me, particularly with what has been removed (to save manufacturing cost), for me to shell out the difference.

[@stephen0406]

To other Model 3 owners, what did you do to protect the paint?

[@nigelbritton964]

A great car made better with worthwhile improvements that said can we have the indicator stalk and parking sensors back please. The lack of physical buttons /dials and a HUD would be a deal breaker for me. Styling changes are subtle and effective but paint peel on a new $67 grand car is inexcusable.

And exactly needed to stop zero times. Topped up at the holiday parks for free (while I drank rum and coke and sat around the pool)...

Hi Matt, I agree that the Highland update is a major improvement however I just rewatched your 2021 review of the M3LR and you loved the suspension, performance and quality back then. In this review I think you’re comparing it to the MY and not the M3. I have a M3LR 2021 and agree that it is a bit hard and would prefer to Highland however it’s not as bad as most motor journalists are portraying in my opinion.

[@Alan-xk9rk]

It’s not paint peeling it’s wax polish this guy knows nothing about cars

[@methoxy66]

The BIGGEST ISSUES the Tesla Model 3 has had for ages, which STILL exist: * Turn indicators that turn off whenever they feel like it - such as when you approach the very turn you are indicating for - or don't turn off at all. * The worst "automatic" wipers of any car with that feature. Including wiping when the sun hits the windscreen at a particular angle. * When playing audio from USB and the car de-powers, it will have completely forgotten the USB source when the car re-powers and you'll need to reselect the USB and reselect an audio track. You'll remember you need to go through all that again just as you're reversing out of driveway, only you can't change audio with the car in reverse. A cheap Alpine headunit from the 90's is better than Tesla's rubbish audio system.
