Last time I slept in my car it was -10°C outside. Now I wanted to do the same in a Tesla to see if the electric heater keeps me warm.

I love your videos man! They honestly deserve wayyyy more recognition

[@JoelEggimann]

Happy to hear you like them! :) Well, we're on the way to get there 😉

Great little adventure . Thanks for posting, Joel. Yesterday bought a new 2023 Model 3 for $28k with Elon's price drop and all the govt incentives. Now.. your video has me scanning Amazon for a mattress, small gas coffee stove and Tesla camping gear. 8/21/2023 6mo later update: Anyone thinking of winter EV camping should Strongly consider buying a Model Y AWD LR version with the extra interior space and reserve battery capacity. You can easily get lost on Oregon's extensive dirt logging, fire and forest access roads. Reserve battery capacity can be a Lifesaver.. esp with Oregon's freak early and late snowstorms and thousands of miles of remote back roads with no cell phone connection. Sleeping in the M3 is very confined for even one adult.. esp if you are bringing provisions, any gear or a dog. With (2) adults.. you will be common law married and divorced by morning. I (and GF) Love my M3... but as soon as I meet the 2 years required by incentives, I am trading up to AWD, LR, Roomy Model Y. Best wishes from the snowy mountains of Oregon !

[@JoelEggimann]

Amazing! Congratulations on the new Model 3 :)

[@expertgaming1002]

I love Oregon! My mom and I were planning on moving there! I rented my dream car a Model Y Performance, and I fell in love with the luxury and the power.😮 I hope to buy either a Model 3 long range with full self driving or a Model Y long range with full self driving. I think Model Y will be better for longer road trips. 😊

I discovered your channel a while ago, in fact, I was amazed. Your content is very wonderful and creative. I hope your channel will grow more in the future. Your content is very special

[@JoelEggimann]

Thank you! Happy to hear you like it! :) Sure just give me some time 😉

Bjorn Nyland sleeps in EVs all the time on his trips.He covers up the windows to conserve heat loss.

[@TmRst]

Greetings from New Zealand! What a joy to watch your videos. Thank you so much.

[@ungallegoenmunich]

Love your content. Cannot understand why so few views per subscriber! Next Challenge: Take a Tesla to south Italy to try Napole Pizza and come back. All sleeping in the car while having showers in random lakes or rivers and using only free charging locations!

[@JoelEggimann]

Haha and all the driving in auto pilot 😋

[@joeayoka7064]

Got mines. Soo excited to try this out!!!

[@siwi1874]

wirklich geiles Video, interessant zu sehen, wie gut der Tesla im Vergleich zum VW beim Campen abschneidet! Die Aufnahmen sind natürlich traumhaft, war selber heuer schon am Stuhleck, allerdings mit Schneeschuhen bei 120 km/h Wind... war auch ein Abenteuer!2

[@JoelEggimann]

Oh wow! Das hört sich echt nach einem sehr intensiven aber coolem Abenteuer an :)

[@reteodom8454]

Good job man! That was a high quality video.

[@benzidyoussef8268]

In love with your camping videos!!

[@JoelEggimann]

There's another one in the process :)

[@benzidyoussef8268]

Perfect ! Especially the winter once! Just amazing...Best of Luck

Looks so fun 😍

Oh yes! 😉

Splendid video mate 🔥

[@MeysamShojaeeNejad]

Isn't 23°C too high? At home, I set the thermostat to 19.5° during the night. I think using some insulation pads on the windows would help saving more energy too.

[@panathaninf]

This is why carsharing is out of question for me ...

[@nigeljohnwilson4549]

Interesting experience Joel, which I hope to try out for myself soon.. Thanks for sharing!

[@gigazipfeee]

Super, gute Entscheidung 👍

[@JoelEggimann]

Viel angenehmer auf jeden Fall :)

[@TheMelbournelad]

Be interesting to see how the same camp would be using window blinds that can get now . They cover all that open window space. Could leave roof one off for the stars if wanted

[@Roman.the.explorer]

Thanks!

[@vagabondsteve]

Inspiring video. Do any other electric cars besides Tesla have camp mode?

[@JoelEggimann]

I'm actually not sure. But would be interested to know it :)

[@robert___9518]

Make more videos like this

Nice and greetings from Finland ❄️ I am just about to buy my first Tesla 3. Mainly because of camping mode, buy do I fit in as a 6.1 f, 187 cm 🤔

[@JoelEggimann]

Yeah you should be fine. I'm 191cm and I fit in the Model 3 :)

[@markkutaittonen4881]

Jes, then it will be the new basic model and 1. destination Lofoten 🙂@@JoelEggimann

[@TropicalG87]

Where did you put your shoes?

[@cornelj]

Waycool. Manslaughter is worse than sleeping in your car and I got tired a lot in Long Beach working for Uber and Airbnb were always taken. Because of Uber eats and Lyft. I didn't even wanna touch a gas pump the next day before my shifts so i'd have my car washed, gased up at night. Then shower and hygiene again the next day and off to work. People think it's unsanitary but I’m big on cross contamination so if you're like me and it's a god blessing to be free and driving your favorite cars. Your will power can help you learn the easy way. I easily made $300 a night driving for Uber and Lyft but the freedom went to my head then it was like I didn't deserve the money. I prayed that it would get better. I spent money on car deep cleanings not just shampoo every week, used fabric sanitizer. Seen $100 tips from each rider before. The long hard hours didn’t last long, getting dreadfully tired was the illuminati’s nice way of saying stop that and I came to believe it should be a temporary thing and not something you get used to. Planet Fitness had an amazing atmosphere for when I’m on the wrong side of town. I swear it’s not worth it to drive tired as much as drinking and driving so I’m not ashamed of this adventure. Wasting gas and clean air was a big no for me. I said that I couldn’t do that to kids walking passed me. I had a heavy blanket that allowed me to never need my car on so my minpin and I could be safe and warm. If I could redo all of everything I had already experienced one different way. An electric car would of let me sleep in my car during the hot summer until 5 pm so I could work till 5 am without side tracking and getting tired too early so I thought a 400 mile range has to be better than a simple 250 common electric.

[@dickiegreenleaf750]

So you can leave the heat running?

[@JoelEggimann]

Yes exactly because it's an EV. It takes around 30km of battery charge in one night

[@edwarden3741]

Yo your videos are good I will love to go camping in a tesla

[@eliyaraky4366]

Good job man✌✌✌✌

[@justsaiyansteve]

How much energy does the M3 take whilst you sleep?

[@JoelEggimann]

I think it’s around 60km for a winter night. In my recent video with the Model Y it was around 35km. But that was during autumn…

[@andreknudsne7648]

Alot lesser 2kw an hour with heatpump.. bjork cover up the windows in his videos and that is in minus 20 +

[@eXplosive91]

Niiiice ! Hast du deinen Tesla schon mittlerweile?

[@scottmcshannon6821]

climbing the mountain to watch the sunset, complaind how windy and cold it is after climbing and standing on top of the pole, in the wind. and then walking back to the car after dark on a strange path. not good at all.

[@kuraikitsune4]

What was the actual cost in range for keeping the heater on that night during -10c? I saw your model Y sleep video yesterday (assumed the night was a lot warmer) and it reeeeally makes me want one!

[@James-cq9dp]

he said it was 50km of range to keep the heater running all night

[@JoelEggimann]

Any ideas for the next challenge?

[@aldosjm4687]

will you try sleep during driving? 🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@JoelEggimann]

@@aldosjm4687 Autopilot would make it possible 😋

[@rajgopee1245]

Nah that seems like a bad idea to have an electric vehicle for camping. It's fine if you're near urban areas but out in the wild. One miscalculation and you're stranded.

[@JoelEggimann]

I guess it depends on where you're going into the wild. I definitely would drive an EV trough the Australian desert 😅

[@carmenfarine3580]

That we dumb😊

[@ultimatedouchebag6760]

that POS car can start up in the cold?
