Additional thoughts not covered in this video… Stalkless is not a showstopper for me; Cooled perforated seats are really nice and the ambient lighting looks awesome. I like it more than I thought. Next level soft ride and better interior… But no front bumper camera… Watch this video where I provide my first visual and quick driving impressions of the Model 3 refresh. Thank you Tesla Nesconset for the demo drive; albeit a short one. They were back to back with test drives! I did the best I could making this video for the 35 minutes I had the car. More content to come on this rig for sure.

Thanks Dave, you were the reason I bought the model 3 last year. Financially, however, my 2023 M3 rear wheel is so much less expensive that the physical differences with the refresh doesn’t matter.

I loved my 2023 Model 3 RWD. But at 70 it was too hard to get in and out of. So I went in last week and traded it in for a Model Y LR AWD. I think the Model 3 was more sporty driving and also I saw the refreshed M3 on the lot. Great looks and I am sure it's better car than what I had but still sits pretty low.

I got to test drive the 2024 M3 rwd last weekend and it was everything I expected it to be. If only the referral program was active or I would have ordered already. I was comfortable with the stalkless steering about halfway through the drive. I just wish it was steer by wire to match the stalkless. The sound dampening inside is much better.

We just bought a gently used 2023 Tesla Model X Plaid identical spec to yours (except ours has the yoke) and we have a 2022 Tesla Model 3 RWD with the LFP. As nice as the Plaid X is, I'm just in love with our 'legacy' Model 3. Plenty of usable power, a really comfortable cockpit and despite the stiffer/sportier suspension it's just a really fun car to drive and I can't recommend it enough. Toss in the ability to routinely charge to 100% and it's a home run. Great video!!

The 2024 Model 3 also has the auto forward or reverse you mentioned that the S and X have. It needs to be toggled on in the menu and is in beta so works most of the time. User beware. 😀 Drive controls are also available on the roof between the two sun visors. Can be used in conjunction with the screen drive controls or if the LCD screen fails, so the car can still be driven. I think you guys call them the PRNDL controls.

Great video, thanks. Tesla seem to be spending more time developing the Model 3 Performance for this refresh and so it will be interesting to see what improvements they come out with. For people who prefer a more sporty drive, the performance version is likely to be a better option, but for the majority of people the RWD and Long Range 3 with more refinement and a softer ride is a good decision I think (the firmness of the suspension was a regular complaint for the old model). I suspect that there will be more differentiation between the 'standard' models and the performance version, which would give people more choice to choose what type of driving experience they prefer.

Hey Dave, so I had a stroke when I was 42 years old (now, I’m 69). It affected my right side with the resulting loss of my right hand. We bought a Tesla Model 3 Perf. in 2021 and we just love that car. With lack of steering stalks and shifting on the screen on the new Model 3, I have to reach way over with my left hand to shift the car through the screen. Is there a way to shift without reaching my left hand so far? Perhaps through a software feature? Btw, we like your KZbin videos. Please tell Kyle he’s very knowledgeable with regard to electric automobile infrastructure. We view him all the time. Cheers!

Dave, when you were driving old model 3's did you ever have a problem with the seats? I rented one for a week about 8 months ago, and absolutely loved the base model 3 except there was something deep in the seat on the left upper thigh area that eventually was driving me to madness. MADNESS I tell you 😄 - The feeling I got was that it was a structural part of the seat and I was just a bit too hefty for the thing. However, maybe it was just a one off. Did you ever feel anything like that, or know anyone who did?

I drove the "Highland" last week. The heated/ventilated seats definitely make the car feel more complete than the initial version. Though the ambient lighting is unnecessary, it does help make the car feel slightly more futuristic considering the interiors of the new Mercedes EQ vehicles. The touch-screen to shift gimmick is annoying. I think it would have been better done as simple press buttons - but fortunately the buttons have a redundancy on the ceiling panel. The windshield wiper toggle and turn buttons take getting used to. The rear HVAC panel's multifunctions are OK, but I'd much prefer headrest mounted LCD panels. That would be a nice option for this car. Honestly, with Tesla, it's like taking 2 steps forward and 3 steps back. Everything they do reeks of lack of beta testing - evident by all the problems they're having with the Cybertruck now. The Model 3 and Model Y will both benefit from these improvements I think.

Standard range is around 4 to 5 days of your commute. If you had access to a L2 charger near where you live or work, charging every 3-4 days would seem to be about right. If Superchargers are on your path, that would work too, although more expensive for (EV) fuel.

It depends on how close a tesla super charger is to your apt. If it is not close by, or very near your daily commute , keeping it charged up will be a pain in the ass. Also it is quite a bit more expensive to charge on a super charger than it would be if you had a plug in available at your residence. So the paid off toyota would be my pick in your situation. It is just a transportation device after all…….YMMV.

Most people tell me keep my current car for as long as possible since it doesn’t cost me much and the car is known for its reliability.

I am going to opt to keep my Honda until the wheels fall off. $50,000 dollars is a lot of money for something you don’t really need at this time. On the other hand, when my wife’s Suby blew up, I purchased a Chevy Bolt for her and it has turned out to be an excellent commuter. Not a Tesla for sure, but she is not a computer geek and the Chevy works great for her.

You need to test drive this car. Not just one time but like 3 time. The model Y is great if you have knees or back problems. “Tesla Joy”. I’m subscribed to her channel she lives in an apartment and has had her Tesla for 5 yrs with over 50k miles. I’m sure she can help you.

I'm in the same boat as you lol. I plan to rent one of the old model 3 like a 2023 model from Hertz for an entire week and see how charging and commuting fits into my schedule. If not I’m gonna get a ICE car.

Thanks for mentioning S3XY stalks when mentioning the stalkless setup! Nothing annoys me more than when reviewers talk about missing things... and then fail to mention that it can be solved by aftermarket accessories (HUD/Gauges cough cough).

Wait! You said it doesn’t qualify for the $7,500. So, must be you finance it through the bank then? Because it wouldn’t qualify. The $7,500 does qualify on model 3 only if you going to lease it. Only reason I said that cause that’s what I’m going to do and depending on the model in NY tax credit range from $500,$1,000,$2,000.

I own a Model 3 to have a mode of transportation if gas becomes very expensive and very scarce from this expanding middle east war so it has its place but for a person looking to save money these cars are not overall cheaper 1st thing before you buy call your insurance agent and get quote look for a 75% increase in your insurance, $1000+ for a home level 2 charger you can also see another enormous resource for Tesla to make money which is Free now updates.

If Tesla decides to run TV ads, they could do something similar to what Ford did in the early-to-mid 1980s: "Have you driven a Tesla ...Lately?"

In Denmark a model 3 or Y is cheaper than a Toyota Corolla due to tax on non electric cars. So there has newer been incentives for electric cars as none are needed.

You can’t buy every new car! No, that’s not a challenge, lol! Besides, you buy a car and that kid of yours steals it. My son is only 17 but, same deal! Except he’s not making videos with them… that I know of. 🤔
