TESLA Model 3 RWD Long Range - Still the king?

[@transc3ndus]

Great review Peter. Can you also review the 2025 toyota prius. I'm really curious about your opinion on it.

[@autogefuel]

its on the list actually, should be coming in for testing somewhere in february

[@transc3ndus]

@autogefuel Excellent, thank you for your reply!

[@michaelb4525]

Cost cutting in the extreme. Lucky it has autonomous braking as you will need it looking and poking at the screen all the time.

[@RB-uw6ez]

not if you setup everything properly before you start riding

[@autogefuel]

very true, you gotta spend some time getting it set up, but once you wanna make changes on the fly its screentime of course

[@tinofarinho]

Great review! Which range are you getting in the winter with heating on?

[@autogefuel]

the range drops pretty hard when the temperature goes doen. WLTP says 700+, but in january here in NL with around 3 degrees its 450-ish id say

Great content, as always! Could you help me with something unrelated: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?

Don’t agree with this video! Tried to like the Highland on my three separate test drives but didn’t like it. Sedan is best for maximal efficiency but I don’t need that, I need a better boot. Model Y is better in that respect but as a car I hate how it drives.

[@autogefuel]

if you want the full practicality then the Model Y is indeed the better choice. BUT the difference is not that big compared to thisone

[@GBIGBIGBI]

Gret review but the car is simply not for me.

[@autogefuel]

thankyou! just curious; what dont you like about the car?

[@GBIGBIGBI]

@@autogefuel lack of turning indicators switch for example. I don't think getting rid of the knobs and buttons is the right direction from a user-friendiness and driving safety point of view.

The king of what? When has it been king of anything...except lies to consumers?

[@autogefuel]

king of EV in this size and shape. The model 3 has been a big hit (here in NL at least) what kinda lies you reckon they are telling?

[@pistonburner6448]

@@autogefuel Basically everything Tesla has ever said or insinuated is a lie. For example: - They've been selling Full Self Driving for how many years now, for up to $15,000. Never delivered. - They market their company and operations with pictures of factories with solar panel covered roofs...in reality only one of their factories finally started getting a few panels installed some years ago (I don't know the current situation). Before that, none of their factories had any. - The lie of sustainable production. Others make their cheapest small cars with basically zero waste at all coming out of the factory. Everything is meticulously planned and recycling is optimized. Meanwhile at Tesla during the one rare case I've read about when outsiders were allowed into the factory to see the actual operations they were appalled that parts worth half a whole car were thrown out the side door every few hours! We can go into details like when Elon had a film crew in the factory he pretended that a simple automated warehouse trolley (used since the 90's or something, probably left at the factory by the previous owner) was their invention, something advanced and unique. - Lies about Tesla's 'autonomous driving' safety where they claim that they're statistically safer when using false comparisons to a sample which could contain Ford Model T's. - More statistical trickery *_like claiming to be at the top of sales charts_* even though competitors sell many more cars, only divided into over a dozen different body shapes and several model names to cater better to customer needs. - Solar City is now a part of Tesla so basically everything that company has ever done or said is a lie. They've even publicly 'unveiled' a product which wasn't really ever hooked up to the house it was supposedly powering, and we know from internal documents revealed in the lawsuits that they never had any intention to produce and sell that version of the product. The list is endless. Because they lie about everything.

​@@autogefuelthe Guy is right. It's agressively marketed as the best of everything and it makes people think that, but it's nowhere close to being the best at any of the claims

[@ShitpommfritFraz]

It is the best car in terms of electrical performance, cost, build quality and specially software. No one even close!

Some bizarre opinions from the car tester.
