Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD: The Best Trim for Performance and Value?

[@spbynum]

If you want value, you can’t beat the new LR RWD. You just can’t. It will definitely outsell the LR AWD. For five grand less, all you sacrifice is the premium audio system (the standard is still better than most other cars), slightly less acceleration (still fast and same top speed), no alcantara on the doors (who cares), no floor mats (you should buy all weather ones anyway), and no AWD (you don’t need it with this much weight/power and tires are more important). That’s it. The RWD LR also has longer range and qualifies for the tax credit. Save five grand. You’ll won’t regret it.

have you driven both? I'm curious if there is any difference in throttle response. Agree with you that 5 sec 0-60 is plenty quick, and unless you live in snowy mountains AWD is a waste.

I just purchased 2024 RWD Long Range. I sold my 2021 model 3 short range. I am excited to get my upgraded model 3.😅 Great video thank you for all the valuable information.

Thanks!

Well done video [liked/subscribed]. I personally just bought a 2022 M3LR for 36k last month. Feels like new. I always thought I would get the MYLR, but I went with my gut. The car is awesome. I live in an apartment but we have L2 chargers in our garage and I get to charge for free. My Mercedes only gets around 17-18mpg in the city so I'm saving a ton on gas. The technology inside the car is worth the money alone. Great car, and you can't go wrong with the purchase. I haven't sat in the 2024 yet so I don't know what I'm missing.

Took delivery of my refreshed M3 LR in March. Absolutely love this car. First EV. It's ridiculously fast faster than crotch rockets and yes I know 😉😉

The infotainment is very user friendly. It's not that complicated. Tesla knows software

Love to see more videos on your performance 3.

[@jacksarkisian3507]

Great overview with some details I haven’t seen in other model 3 reviews! Your pants do be tight tho.

[@Muhammadsaeed-se2ti]

I have ordered LR RWD but LR AWD is available inventory. I see range in RWD 363 and 342 in AWD. Apart from speed and sound system. what is the other advantage of buying AWD?

[@spbynum]

See my comment above in this section for an answer. It’s not much.

Wait, so if I decided to play a KZbin podcast on my phone and close my home screen, I can't listen to the audio while driving? Even though the video isn't playing.

I want long range RWD, but which is better color? Stealth grey vs white. I think white looks better specially at night but it is extra $1000 and there are too many white cars.

[@mattmyers30]

white, stealth gray is the dirtiest white is the cleanest color

Was looking to see more of the interior details and dash, instead of that handsome face of yours.

Noted, next time well include both.
