2024 Tesla Model 3 Performance: 0-60 in 2.9 seconds!

Tesla Model 3 Performance refresh is ludacrisly quick, and actually meaningfully different from the base car refresh

[@markmolenaar4479]

[@mikey631]

Just FYI regarding the lack of a carbon ceramic brakes on the performance model. For this price range, it makes way more sense to have traditional steel brakes. When you start doing track days in this, you are going to be replacing brake parts at a much higher interval. And when replacing a carbon ceramic setup can be $10,000 or more, it gets painful unless you're stupid rich. So even though the CC brakes may offer better track performance, it's much more practical to stick with steel brakes (which also work and feel better in normal street driving to)

A m3 or m4 xdrive is 2.8 sec.. the m3 and m4 will also have the upper hand after the 60 mark and would destroy it in a roll. Theres no world where this beats a m3 or m4. Ur talking nonsense. Also to compare the price like a bmw m3 doesn't have far superior brakes, actual luxury interior, carbon fiber and other high grade materials, etc... go look at the interior of a bmw m3 compared to this and get back to me. 😂

[@pawpawbandit3871]

the changes to the car - suspension and brakes, and keeping weight down, in addition to more speed/ power, are really essential for someone like me who likes specific older cars for their suspension and handling and driving experience, and because they're nimble and fun on back roads. So I think you totally got to the crux of the Tesla issue for serious drivers / car mechanics, etc. in this review.

[@powrich12]

I went to teslas website and was thinking "this is nice but you lose 40 miles of EPA estimated range compared to the long range... then i thought ... you ONLY lose 40 miles of EPA estimated range.. 🤔"

[@Geckogold]

And if that bothers you that much, you can likely get an 18 inch aftermarket wheel for it to regain some if not most of that range back. But in my experience with my Model Y, long distance travel has gotten a lot easier overall in a Tesla because they keep adding more and more superchargers in many places, so going as far as you absolutely can on one charge is less of an issue than how fast can you charge at each station you do stop at. Or as Out of Spec Motoring calls it, "supercharger hopping". While you do have to stop more often, your overall trip is usually faster because you're spending less time at said superchargers compared to doing long deep charges at fewer ones that the car tends to do if you don't want to optimize the trip speed. At one stop, it told me to deep charge for about 40 minutes to make it to the next supercharger which was about two hours away. If I was eating at a restaurant, that might've been fine. But since it was the middle of the night, I instead picked the next supercharger in between where I was charging and where the car wanted me to go. I only had to charge another 5 minutes to make it to the next one, then stopped at that one for maybe 15 minutes, compared to if I did the 40 minutes it originally wanted me to do. This doesn't always work of course, because if the supercharger is full or you're at a V1/V2 supercharger, you'll probably have to wait. Should also be interesting as more non-Tesla EVs are able to use the V3/V4 superchargers and how they'll impact Tesla owners.

[@Glazenbol-uo2ni]

@@patrutherford9600 yes i do. I dont need the extra bit of range. All other features tesla offers are underwhelming. Dont care about apps you cant use without premium, sensors that most cars have, and an app. Merc and Audi are much better built, better looking, and have superior driving experience. Also tired of the boring, empty interior. You see the m3 everywhere as it became a cheap entry level car. I also like the electric BMW i4 much more.

Don't forget About the7,500 Deduction 😎

be careful tho. add white seats and any color but gray and the $7,500 rebate disappears

[@chazcarpenter1559]

@@antimagnetwhy is that?

[@antimagnet]

@@chazcarpenter1559 rebate is only good for cars priced at $55k and under. So any options that bring the price above $55k kill the $7,500 rebate

[@alexandruilea915]

​@@chazcarpenter1559it probably goes over a threshold where it doesn't qualify anymore due to price.

[@scratastic1]

If they were really serious about the environment with those deductions they should only apply it to the most basic models with the highest efficiency numbers, and not the ones that burn through the precious 'green' energy the quickest just for speed. Show's what a dumb system it is to begin with, but if you can use their stupidity in your advantage why not hehe

[@bibiotopch2319]

There is only one problem with the review....You did NOT drive the car....Where is that 0-60 in 2.9S?I was waiting for that part,not how the head lights look like...

[@stfuernie]

The FIRST tesla id ever consider buying!

[@STEVYFORELLO]

Think about a few years ago when you needed to pay 100's of thousands for that kind of power and acceleration... and now it's "just" 60k. Amazing stuff.

[@mogamer4511]

And its still dog shit. I think any sane person would still rather have a huracan thats slower but has that awesome V10 engine note than a 60k$ genericmobile ev trashcan with no sound

And it's absolutely garbage. What do you need 0-60 in 3 seconds for on a 3 ton boat-fridge hybrid that can't take a corner to save it's life. A 150hp Miata is a much better enthusiast car because it's much more engaging and fun to drive than this go-kart with 1000hp. This car is only for posers who want to brag that their toaster beats a $200k car while they send it flying into the wall of a grocery store because it takes off with the push of a button.

[@trillium_music]

my tell tale sign is the right and left rear blinkers. old model 3 has orange strip between the lights while the performance has it right under the brake light.

[@raheeb1]

“Under 60k, I think that’s in a pretty good spot” Then realizes it’s 45K with the tax credit. 🔥

[@xeleborn501]

do you wanna test the new electric mini? would love to see your review

[@seanrussell9039]

It’s truly remarkable the gap between Tesla and other EV Manufacturers. It would be incredibly difficult to justify purchasing other vehicles in the 35-65k range. Performance, Infrastructure & Software is unmatched in this price bracket.

The Y with those new seats....YES !

[@wesleychapman9001]

Worth Noting!!! This performance Model 3 is eligible for the $7,500 Federal Tax credit (making it $45,500!), whereas the RWD and LR AWD versions are not eligible - due to the batteries is the performance version being made in the USA whereas the others are not. That's a heck of deal considering most cars have a hefty mark-up at the dealerships these days.

Some of the extez things look like after market things tacked on like the lip spoiler and the front splitter. I don't hate, but that's what it looks like that someone put aftermarket sporty stuff on a regular model 3

[@Bada-Papa]

Hello! Im a subscriber in South Korea. I just ordered the performance version. However, I'm a little concerned about the ground clearance of the car. Can you include the size and geometric difference between the regular and the performance model 3 in the upcoming video? Ps. Thank you for the great quality videos all the time. Very happy watching your videos halfway across the world!🎉
