2024 Tesla Model 3 Performance Highland facelift Malaysian review - worth RM30k over the LR?

The 2024 Tesla Model 3 Performance, even at RM30k more than the LR, is a performance bargain here in Malaysia. It handles better than expected too, but it still has the usual Tesla "quirks." Watch Hafriz Shah's full review here.

Great review. Your review of the 2024 Long Range helped me decide to buy it, and I love it. This review told me I will lose quietness for the active suspension. Love your reviews, and your personal delivery style. Well done & thanks from New Zealand

[@hafrizshah4937]

Thank you! For the mostly smooth NZ roads (I love it there btw, my near annual go-to getaway) the Performance's suspension would be a good fit, but yes the extra noise will be annoying.

[@YenC-y8g]

High speed is great if braking is good too. Did you test the brakes?

[@hafrizshah4937]

The brakes are fine, good even, for road use.

[@datcy4715]

Nice, I was in George Town and a BYD Seal accelerated suddenly and almost hit the car in front of me because it barely couldn’t stop in time. Was pretty hilarious to see and I bet the owner will think twice before doing hard acceleration in the city now.

[@Razzd2]

Hafriz, thanks for a very comprehensive review. You covered all the exciting features in a concise & comprehensive manner, though perhaps a little more on the software part? Indeed, the performance isn't to be taken lightly, more so, it's useable in day to day activities, not so much the "insane" acceleration but simply "press" and "go". Whereas in a BMW M car, one needs to engage "Sports" Transmission, "Sports" Chassis etc, kickdown etc. Of course, it will not replace a real M car, but it's a fun, realistic and useable daily.

[@PsychedMedia]

Unfair roadtax structure tho. Tesla malaysia declared it to jpj that it produces 460kW of power, which causes high roadtax, while Tesla actually advertises 460ps only

[@hafrizshah4937]

Thanks! Definitely, the get up and go performance of this car is just out of this world.

[@hafrizshah4937]

@@PsychedMediayes, but I think RM1,640 road tax per year for this level of performance isn't excessive at all.

[@jingledreams8763]

Until today, those super car like Ferrari and Lamborghini owner still cannot accept this car is powerful than their car…when u try 0-100, it’s really feel power than those super car out there

[@HenryDrake-h5m]

Speed is nothing without the feel, handling and performance. That is why a Tesla would never be a Lambo or Porsche.

[@roafelix8198]

​@@HenryDrake-h5mspeed and acceleration are extremely important. Without them, it's useless. By the way Rimac Nevera is the real winner 🏆🏅✨️

[@netfliznetflix8760]

⁠@@roafelix8198delusional.. though speed and performance is important , there are other components besides that which attracts buyers.. if rimac is the real winner why is it only 1/3 of the total allocation is sold? Bugatti in the same instance has sold 3 times the amount and it’s almost triple the asking price. Speed isn’t everything mate, there’s something else that only a true car lover would know and pay top dollar for… respect for rimac but it isn’t one

[@danieltay1052]

You mentioned smart #1 is your choice if you are going to buy an ev months ago, is this still the case? When are you planning to get an ev?

[@hafrizshah4937]

I've had a BYD Dolphin as a city runaround for almost a year now.

[@yagooatthegoat]

Smart #1 is best for condo gang, 0-100 3 hours but biasa we just charge 1-2hours

[@yagooatthegoat]

Smart 5 year maintenance for brabus less than 5k if premium pro murah lagi

love watching hafiz's review , honest and on point 👉 , keep it up sir !

[@rajasvlogs2061]

Bukan kena subscibe ke utk connect internet?

[@yagooatthegoat]

Why some unit got yoke steering

[@darnielng]

Close up of the tyres can see it's all trashed up. Media car.

[@PrabagaranKannan-v1t]

Ferrari and Lamborghini? Wow . Next level comparison…

[@zaryl2k]

i reckon being a Performance car, the battery is still using a fire hazardous, thermal runaway prone NMC battery yes?

[@TonyLowML]

Yes. The seats creak!!!

[@MnFirdausNasir]

The Model 3 Performance is clearly a vehicle that makes internal combustion engine (ICE) cars seem irrelevant in today's era. The high maintenance costs for ICE vehicles in the same category and their high selling prices make the Tesla Model 3 Performance far more worthwhile, given the advanced technology it offers.

[@huplim]

Early squad!

[@lcwpg]

What i like about tesla is that it comes and challenge the conventional. The fans of ICE have to go on hate speech, defend like their life depends on it all because one company made battery works powering a car. Is EV the future to fully replace ICE? no its not but it certainly have riled up the peoples mind

[@sunny_feed]

Hard hitting Haftiz ?. 😂😂

[@brindhakrishnamoorthy4546]

I'm really early Watching this on TV and commenting on phone 😅

[@AzrinSunbae]

Wow

[@kimwahchueng5291]

They way hafiz narrates full of sarcasms…. Dengki ke?

[@datcy4715]

He also praised the infotainment and the sound system… so pretty fair IMO. We need more reviewers to call out the BS like removing signal stalks and gear levers.

[@ChelseaMin]

Nope I choose volvo ex30 because I see drag race between ex30 and tesla model 3 and win volvo.. You can searching if you want... I bet ex30 for this❤

[@AHZS147]

Did you watch the ex30 vs tesla model 3 performance or other variants?

[@AHZS147]

They have different variants. Please specify each variants

[@NinoPanino]

ex30 too small. xc40 is acceptable size

[@syafiqYT]

Model 3 which standard or performance?

[@hikenace2546]

I wonder whether its 10 years old or 35 years old , just for fun to go and unplug their electric car charger while charging , and the percentage shows 2%....😂😂😂

[@hafrizshah4937]

All EVs will lock the cable in place while charging

[@NinoPanino]

@@hafrizshah4937 and bro will be caught in 4k trying to do it. (jk the tesla records at 1080p)

Considering Hafiz looks like an adult sized child.... calling a badge childish is hilarious

Ok buddy 😂
