Tesla Model 3 Highland (2024): Owner’s review after 2 months

What I like, don’t like and the three biggest letdowns after 2 months.
Keep in mind: I am a first time EV & Tesla owner.

[@ronedwards8239]

I drove the 2024 model & model 3 yesterday. The new model 3 was much quieter, rode better, seats were a big improvement.

[@14energy]

How tall are you? Im 192 and Istill haven't decided between model Y and 3 due to head room and seating position

[@mhsohel47]

Autopilot was meant to be driven on the highway only. But you are right they should improve speed detection.

[@tonytuka]

He was pretty clear about owning and expensing as a lease

[@StormyDog]

Around here (rural mid Minnesota) Autopilot doesn't recognize speed limits on local highways. It's partly a signage problem (very few signs in some areas) but often speed limits are totally wrong unexplainably (like 10mph or 30mph in a 60 mph zone). My Garmin is almost always correct, maybe Tesla should use the same maps as Garmin?

[@iuliu_]

As a european who's watching a ton of car vids I'm always annoyed by people exclusively using mph. It really feels like I somehow don't understand the english language anymore when they do. I really appreciate you putting that small "mph" conversion every time you mention km/h so they understand what you're talking about. I just wish our american and british friend would also start doing do the same :)

[@z00h]

It really doesn't take that much brain power to convert miles into km's on the fly, especially when you narrow it down to 10's.

[@iuliu_]

@@z00h do you hear a guy say "134 miles" and instantly think "215 km" without pausing the video? Because if you don't, then especially these range tests imply tens of video pausing to do this conversions or just give up and not understand anything anymore.

HI! Thanks for the video, do you think this car could be used as a family car?

[@actasifitisimpossibletofail]

Absolutely. Believe it or not, this car has more space than my previous bmw 5 series. Also, my kids love the entertainment screen in the back (they connect their BT headphones and watch Netflix). It does not interfere with whatever media you are listening in the front.

[@0-Will-0]

I only learned recently you can press the wiper button then use the left or right wheel (I forget which) to adjust the interval. Quite a good workaround until they sort it, as you at least don't have to look at the screen to change the mode.

[@mconnah1]

I have found the autopilot to be great. It should ONLY be used on dual carriageways… I agree about the wipers. The behaviour seems to change on every software version.

[@iixorb]

How are you getting on with the lack of indicator stalk? I’m expecting these buttons could be difficult to use here in Europe where we have lots of roundabouts.

[@andreaskayy]

It's absolutely not a problem..I'm from Germany and I drive roundabouts all the time. People try to make this a big thing, but it really isn't. I'll make a short video next week

[@fulcrumdjk]

Thanks for the review. I've had a Model 3 for 2 weeks now; so can definitely concur with many of your comments. Living in Los Angeles, I don't have some of your issues, but agree wholeheartedly on turn signals buttons, and auto wipers. Could I ask you for any info on the wheel center caps you purchased? I would like to remove the aero covers as well. Haven't seen any options here in the US yet; probably because the car is so new here.

[@marcmandigers8531]

Would also like to know where Andreas bought the center caps, for these wheels they aren't avaiable at Tesla (yet)

Great video! Your English is actually good! Reminds me a bit on Christopher Waltz :) At the end of the vid tho: each time you said: I can show you this and that, just put in extra effort and show it while talking!

[@michaelo8446]

Also 1000% agree on the signal indicators needing a larger surface area where they're clickable. The deadzone on the sides/corners was the biggest issue I had during my test drive. If you're gonna remove the stalks, at least make sure that the UX for your replacement is at halfway decent. They clearly just half-assed that part

[@djejnyc]

Nice review! We ordered one in blue, won't be here for a few weeks. Would love to see the matrix headlights video! (We don't get that feature here in the USA).

[@GustavosStuff]

Not sure if it'll work but for the app not opening the car problem you can try disabling battery optimizations on your phone for the tesla app. Really nice car btw, I've been thinking of taking off the aero covers too

[@markl3893]

A recent Tesla video with the designer and engineer revealed that the top speed reduction was done only because of the new type of tire they are using. It has something to do with optimizing the trade-offs between lateral grip and low rolling resistance with new rubber compounding technology.

[@mgordhan]

Pretty good. I feel like the issues are really just software upgrades?

[@fr3238]

If you have an iPhone and the Tesla software 2024.2.3 update you can upgrade your iPhone key from bluetooth to UWB which will communicate with greater accuracy to more responsively lock, unlock, and open Automatic Doors. Also the auto wiper function will soon be improved thru software update.

[@europeinatesla]

Completely agree with you on the Autopilot - wow, it's so bad now. It was a bit better before the 2023.12 update - but it's hopeful that updates can potentially solve this. Also another thing, I'm sure you probably find this annoying on the Autobahn in Germany - the Cruise Control can only go up to 160km/h... Great review - cheers from Portugal from a fellow Data Engineer :)

[@tafl-9198]

Never had issues, when I bought my Model 3 in 3 years ago. Now I dont trust it at all.

[@andreaskayy]

I don't drive that much Autobahn so it's not a big deal for me. I wish though that the autopilot would not be lined up 140 and that it's not automatically re-engaging if you do a manual langee change

Tesla recommends a higher tire pressure to increase mileage. If you want a smoother ride and increased traction adjust the pressure to the tire manufacturers' recommended pressure. For long trips I adjust to the higher pressure, for local driving, I sacrifice mileage for better road isolation and handling.

[@TB-up4xi]

I have matrix headlights on the older (pre-highland) model 3. You can set the speed to current / manual and ignore the speed signs. Autopilot works great in Australia.

[@Robertje]

I recently started driving the Model 3 Highland. A nice car and it drives well. There are a few user points that I don't support. - giving direction with buttons on the steering wheel is ridiculous and dangerous. According to support you can have stems installed, costs (of their design error) are yours - Speed ​​warnings and warning of activating autopilot can only be turned off once. This action occurs every time you drive (and yes, everyone drives 1 or 2 km per hour too fast sometimes). - Speed ​​cameras are on the map, but have no notification. Why not?

[@Lljjii]

[@shou635]

Basic Autopilot is meant for highway use or at least decent two lane roads. But highly curved backroads, it struggles.

[@digitaldreamer8637]

I've found the same issue with Autpilot on narrow roads. It thinks the oncoming car is going to come into your lane and freaks out. So annoying.

[@alex135789]

Try the FSD 12 in America. It will blow your mind.

[@andreaskayy]

That is true, although I would love to see it in a rural scenario rather than the urban driving we see in all the videos.

[@marcuschauca9543]

2018 M3 LR owner here. Automatic wipers have alway been horrendous unfortunately. Sometimes the auto feature does actually work tho. Maybe like 15% of the time lol.

[@denniss1211]

About the dirty rear camera ... On my Subaru I just hit the rear window washer and it also puts water on my rear camera.... works great.

[@TheVorst]

I have a 2019 Model 3 with autopilot (not full self driving - FSD). I'm looking to change to the new Model 3. I completely surprised about this review. My current 2019 Model 3 has no problem with Autopilot. It always keeps the route, even with rather sharp turns, it never fails, unless the route lines are completely confusing. Is this real ???? Also it never failed with auto cruise function. Since a few months the auto-wipers work much better. It is now set at auto wipe, and rarely have to intervene manually. Are you sure that your new Model 3 cameras are calibrated correctly? Even without autopilot on, the car warns you when you deviate from the lane. My son has a Model Y (only vision based), he drives 80% in autopilot. Especially on the highways. I had even a case a person put one of his feed from the walk pad onto the street, to avoid an obstacle, my car went fully on the brake automatically before I reacted. If a car stops in front of me and didn't see it immediately , the car warns quickly. If your Model 3 highland can't keep the lane, there must something completely wrong. In the service mode there is camera calibration function (I never had to use), only when the car is new, it calibrates when you do your first ride. Maybe your car was confused by somebody in the first miles driven.

[@TheVorst]

One more thing. My model 3 has HW3, today the new Model 3 has HW4 hardware, and Elon Musk told that autopilot is optimised for HW3. HW4 optimisation will take longer to get done, since 95% of the Tesla cars are HW3 based. These HW3 cameras have less resolution and have a different angle to view the road. So the AI learning is different. The optimisation for HW4 will take another 6 months to be completed.

[@robertharding5978]

Wipers.... was exactly the same on 2020 Model3 SR+. Also, the safety systems get spooked by a blade of grass / overgrown hedgerows on rural roads which means you're constantly trying to avoid certain death with it steering you towards oncoming traffic.

[@69memnon69]

What’s annoying is that the FSD neural network update doesn’t apply to Autopilot, which still uses hardcoded rules. They need to scrap the autopilot code base and use the FSD system for autopilot.

I live out in the country and drive on a lot of dirt roads. What happens when your Tesla cameras get covered in dust. My truck backup camera hardly ever has a clear view because it's covered in dust. I wouldn't want to have to clean multiple cameras multiple times a day for the car to work properly.

[@jwstolk]

The rear camera can get a bit dirty, which can affect park assist. The from camera's are behind the windscreen wipers so they stay clean. The 4 side camera's stay pretty clean just from rain. They are pretty high up and I installed the Tesla mudflaps behind the front wheels, which seem to reduce the amount of mud getting on the side of the car.

[@garryellis3085]

Never had a problem with the door not opening (ever). My ride is beautiful but I use 18 inch wheels exclusively. My wipers are fine but I never engage auto wipers (what for). You just press the icon on the steering wheel, when required. I use my frunk every day. Its great to lock in shopping that could roll around in the back. Great for smelly takeout as well.

I can still use the gas pedal to speed it up to 50 km while the car keeps self-driving, but it is annoying, especially because some days it works perfectly on exactly the same route. I hope the long awaited FSD v12 improves on this.

Have mine for a month now, i completely agree on all letdowns. Especially the wipers, how can they be talking about self driving cars if they can't even get a wiper right.... And the cruise control/autopilot are just plain dangerous to use. In Belgium we have traffic signs indicating that trucks above 5 tons are prohibited. It reads this sign, which says "5t" as a speed limit of 5kmh every time

[@FilipCools]

Very nice and honest video. I can relate the issues that I experienced during a test drive of my colleague’s 2021 Model 3 LR with the advanced autopilot option here in Belgium. Even the full driving assistance of my “old” Mercedes E-Class of 2019 works much better!!!

Should be easy enough.

[@andreaskayy]

Roundabout driving is absolutely not a problem once you get comfortable with the buttons for a few days. For me it now actually feels like a strange stretch to use the indicator in our "normal" car. It would actually be super cool if the car indicates based on the configured destination

@@andreaskayy yes let's remove what works and is intuitive, i.e. stalks, because it costs too much to have them there, and let's introduce completely flawed gimmicks that will cost a ton of money to develop and will not work right, e.g. the indication on the configured destination rather than spatial awareness. 👏👏👏

@@louisyoko2723 It's more ergonomic to have buttons right next to your thumb, than stretching for a stalk that is somewhere there, behind the wheel. Really, stalks are flawed.

[@louisyoko2723]

​@@NitroZakis "Really, stalks are flawed. Imagine a computer mouse with its buttons on a keyboard. " What a silly analogy. There's a limited number of positions you can hold a mouse, so OBVIOUSLY buttons make sense. Whilst steering wheel... does this really need explaining? Not only that, the buttons on Mr Smelly's steering wheel are in a wrong place for where you should hold your hands, if you know how to drive that is. So if you knew how to hold the steering wheel and you held it like it should be held, you'd have to constantly reposition your hand down to hit the buttons, whilst remembering to press them in the right way. Whereas with stalks, they are always where they should be allowing your muscle memory to kick in without you having to think about it and allowing you to operate them regardless of at which angle your steering wheel is. "Also, I'm constantly messing stalks-related actions when switching between my Tesla Model Y and Nissan Leaf, because the operation logic is very different." Are you making a low key joke here or are you lost in space?

[@NitroZakis]

@oko2723 Wow, you're so toxic! 🤦🏻‍♂ No jokes at all. If you think of any stalk-related action besides turn signals, you'll see my point. Well, if you drove any Japanese car. And even turn signals aren't identical, though the general logic is similar. Personally, I hold the wheel at 3-9, as has been recommended during my education. It is a perfect position for my left thumb to always be right at those buttons, no matter in which position the steering wheel is. It works perfectly for me. For you?.. I'll let you be the judge of that.

I feel like you’ve had the worst auto pilot experiences I’ve heard of. My only complaint about auto pilot is ghost breaking. Other than that, it’s flawless. And the cruise control on small roads, that sounds about right as the cameras are detecting the closeness in the cars and doesn’t feel comfortable with it. You just had to adjust and not using it on super tight roads.

[@surviver5738]

show the autopilot issues!

[@willcooper206]

High beam video please

[@jwstolk]

It is pretty hard to see, only smalls sections of the beam are switched on/off and the switch does not seem to be instant. I know it works because I have not had any car flash back at me. It also automatically switches to low-beams in "rural" area's. This detection 100% vision based, not on map data, and has a similar "inconsistency" as the auto-wipers. But it is nice to just leave it on auto all the time, as it will remember the setting across trips.

[@meteora8888]

Why do people talk about the handles and the port being froze over like that's a unique problem to Tesla lol? This happens with regular ass door handles and the regular ass flap for fuel fillers? Those freeze shut all the time and can be an absolute pain in the ass.

[@jwstolk]

The 360 park assist video is patented by Nissan. The top-view of the Tesla 3D park assist has a similar result but was not patented. Tesla auto-wipers has been in development for 10 years. I think the main issue is that the water on the windshield is too close to the camera and out of focus. The software seems to look mostly at how wet the road is, not if it's actually raining. Manually changing the interval while the car is on autopilot is now possible, and I usually use voice commands to change the wiper interval, instead of messing with the screen. I hope Tesla could make the left scroll wheel control the interval while the wiper button is pressed (mine is set up to controle audio volume, and still controls the volume while the wiper button is pressed.)

It actually is in the highland. Left scroll wheel clicks right or left after you pressed the whiper button will change the interval

@@andreaskayyThank you! I did try it several times but forgot the scroll does more than just up/down.
