The 3 LR even with the pretty massive Tesla price increases still represents really good value. It is truly an amazing daily.

[@danpaul4975]

In the UK it's only £5000 cheaper than the performance, when I bought mine last year it was £13,000 cheaper than the performance

[@blower1]

@@danpaul4975 Yep, and that's with the 18" wheels, if you go for the 19" then the price diff is only £3500.....which is why I now have a performance on order. Although I intend to sell the 20" uberturbine wheels as soon as i get it and fit some 19" T-sportline TS5 (zero-g style) wheels with much better Michelin PS4S tyres than the mediocre Pirelli P-zero's it comes with. The TS5's are a LOT lighter and will give me range close to the long range and a slight boost in performance.

[@dragospahontu]

It is too expensive in Europe because of tax +10,000€

[@Yachtzeee]

@@danpaul4975 Agreed. I have a 21 3P as well. The extra power, braking is insignificant to most. To me that and track mode is extremely significant. I have 18 inch wheels with 4s tires. Range and power! For the masses the LR is an amazing daily. Still the performance is Audi Sline or M sport capable. More than enough!

[@georgepapuc8050]

funny how things work. They just got a price drop

[@f205v]

That dog pulling the girl on skis is even more efficient than the Tesla! ;)

[@StormyDog]

Skijoring! Many dogs love it. Think that was a Bernese Mountain Dog. Skijoring was a favorite activity for my Australian Shepard and now for my Border Collie.

[@MoveElectric]

Hi Björn, yes please. Do more of this hard stuff with other EV‘s. In August me and my familiy will drive the same route with a camper together with my Model S 75. Maybe we will meet on the road 😜 cheers Jens

[@PuNicAdbo]

Ach quatsch du auch hier. Grüße aus Finndorff 😆

[@scurrr7102]

Hey Jens, du auch hier! Auch deinetwegen kommt im Juni unser Model Y LR. Grüße aus Hildesheim 👍🏽

[@MrVurtan]

Ich grüße auch mal hier aus Alt-Osterholz. Mein Model Y kommt ja leider erst im Dezember.

[@madrid01full]

I like this real life tests a lot! would enjoy more of this, even connected with some sightseeing spots along the way

[@Kermit26297]

Perfect timing for the video Bjorn. We just accepted delivery of our Fremont LR M3 two days ago. Good to see what real-world range we can expect to get. So far we are really enjoying it and can’t wait to take some summer road trips. 😊

[@jarsmoreira]

I would say that this "test" is more informative than the range tests, i.e., for actual normal use of a car. I'm saying such, as in my EV, there is a lot of fluctuation in the consumption, between stretches at nearly constant speed, when comparing to just following traffic flow (and of course, staying inside the speed limit on GPS). Like so, I won't say to ditch the range test, that is a more comparable between different cars, but this kind of test, for the more popular cars, would be welcome. For example, I always wondered what the "fat E-Tron" would be capable on a trip like this. Just a recommendation, don't do it on a so long distance, unless the car has a very long announced range.

[@MarkGovier]

Good to validate your other tests. Nice to see more scenery.😀

[@fricatus]

Hi Bjørn, whether the test is useful or not, this was the most enjoyable of your videos in a long time, just because of the incredible places you go to. It is nice to see geographical variety, even though it might not always be practical, such as where you’re aiming for consistency.

[@Lucas-nm9td]

I love that road, last year there I was driving between 2 meter high walls of snow on that stretch.

[@1_2_die2]

These realistic test conditions are the most valuable ones. Great service, thank you.

[@colinrobinson7869]

What ever you do Bjorn (within reason) is always a joy to watch and mixing up the route makes it more enjoyable.

[@SimonClaringbold]

this is a fantastic video - the tour through the snow is spectacular, the back roads are so scenic, and the car amazing!

[@myrace235]

I wanted to pass these mountains in winter. But the road was closed 1 week before my arrival. Finally I have seen this road. Thank you

[@Bercik87]

15:30 brooo. The scenery: lighting, background, deep of field. 10/10

[@Chris89cv]

That’s a great test! Thanks for realistic „WLTP“ proving stretches ☺️

[@davidkendall2272]

Amazing performance and efficiency in your test of the LR M3. Similar to our 2018 RWD LR M3, where we have been getting amazing efficiency as well over past 4 years. Tesla hit it out of the park with the M3. One incredible car and also a very beautiful car IMHO. I like you doing these kinds of tests. Love your channel.

[@ronanmacsweeny7651]

Cool to see how many kilometers that can be achieved without making the journey uncomfortable or too slow. Would be cool to see comparisons too

[@danielb3150]

Great Test! Tesla is truly the king of efficiency. No one comes close. And the RWD version is even better!

[@danielsiffredi8403]

great video Bjorn! It would be great to see the same test with a Model Y either LR or Performance (latter preferred as we could see the two ends of the spectrum).

[@allanpedersen5755]

2019 Tesla 3 LR RWD, Denmark - Austria, 1.261 km via Germany STAU STAU, 19 hours incl. 3 x SuC, total 117 wh/km, summer 2021 😊

[@stefanvanvuuren3931]

640km is just amazing that is truly some significant distance. I would love to see what the ID3 77kwh does compaired to the M3 LR you drove on the same road.

[@kqschwarz]

I watched this video twice because it is so good. I like this test and I like the better scenery off the highway.

[@ciastk00]

Wonder about EQS range in this type of driving... Anyone else wondering about the same ? :D

[@Johan-di9zg]

especially the rear wheel drive version with its huge claimed range

[@1_2_die2]

The drivers bladder will be the weakest part 😉

[@Clearphish]

You can do this anytime, just because you are so enthusiastic and relaxed. Your road videos with music added are pure art, and the Norway tourism office should be paying a major amount for this promotion of your wonderful country. 😀

[@peterwright837]

Beautiful scenic drive and good test for the type of driving many people do.

[@dellyet]

Liked this reality test, plz do it with others cars and it doesn't need to be same route but average speed would be nice to know.

[@maxgreece1]

This is the first range test I have seen that matches our range experience and consumption. We are in Athens with an SR+ (2021 - LFP) and over winter here we were averaging 130 w/klm but now with the warmer weather are also getting less than 120. Just for reference the car is used most for the commute to and from work, about 44 klm total at speeds similar to the ones you just did. At least now, when people express doubts about our numbers I can point them to this video so thanks for that!

[@stevemulroy1417]

Please do more of this. It’s more realistic in the driving mix you get with daily use.

[@Marc.S.78]

Such a beautiful country…. Have been there couple of times but just for work, never for holidays….

[@ratiof2827]

Like the road, better than the motorways, more of those!

[@trinitonv8]

Yes please.More of these test.Many places around dont got the highway roads you test cars on.Slow roads with climbs and decents are realistic for many EV owners in Norway.

[@dwilson147]

I really enjoyed the different views. Definitely would watch more similar.

[@BBKing-yh3gn]

Brilliant video Bjørn! Love these effiency trip videoes! Would love to see the same with LFP as well. Keep up the good work

[@pjfinsydney]

Really enjoyable, and great to see different scenery. +1 for seeing same with Polestar 2

[@norbsey7620]

Hi Bjorn, loved it, more like this please.

[@Kruitefluit]

Yes please more of this testing

[@bruceflyr7359]

I really liked this test, perfect length on the video, and I love seeing your Beautiful country. We done. That car is so impressive.

[@FutureSystem738]

Great scenery thanks - enjoyed that!

[@stephaneviola4764]

Hi Bjorn - I really appreciate all the testing you do. Your videos are what lead me to buying an EV and a Tesla Model 3 LR. One thing I noticed that significantly affect range is the size of your wheels. I switched my 18 inches for 20 inches for the summer and immediately noticed that my efficiency percentages went from 75% to low 60% and even 55% when I drive at 120kmph. So I guess looking sporty goes against range.

[@pawelglowacki321]

Yes, definitely worth doing more such tests as this is slightly different use case than usual and it is good to see the range and consumption at that conditions!

[@alexanderhansen7981]

This test was a complete breth of fresh air. Ceeping the speed limit and average on perhaps 70 km/h is more real for me at least and of course not too many overtakes. so.. more of these tests please and of course, the scenery is better than Østerdal'n ja 😎

[@RosellaSubarou]

I liked this test. Nice landscapes...

[@jrnhagen5621]

Ruta du kjørte er høyst relevant og en populær tur. Gudbrandsdalen, Jotunheimen, Beitostølen, Valdres, Hønefoss osv. Er sikker på at mange som går med tanker om å gå over til elbil er interessert i nettopp denne ruta. Besseggen er populær om sommeren og ligger langs denne ruta. Tror du treffer blink her 👍🏻

[@obiskeyone]

I love the scenery

[@michaelschmidt5966]

Super video 😊 I love to see the Norwegian landscape you drive in 🇳🇴 Take a trip to Odda and Kinsarvik 😊 I love to see you testing the cars 👍

[@bartwaggoner2000]

Sandinavia is ridiculously clean I love it

[@nullpunkt8660]

Nice video! shows how efficient the Model 3 is ☺️

[@rontubbs4707]

Amazing! Thank you Bjørn.

[@coolaa]

Road trip + range test = Great! Doing these kind of videos is fun where you drive different route than 1000km challenge / range test / arctic circle. To challenge your self and the car you can plan a longer route with few charging options, and slow charging speeds (50kw) in a Swedish country road trip? By the way I drove a vw e-up from Oslo to Gothenburg with average of 11,7 wh/100km @90km/h (gps speed).

[@Meisterqn]

Very interesting. Impressive range. Thank you very much.

[@raphaelmeier7190]

Wow such a nice video idea! As always top tier entertainment by björn! Also very impressed by the range of the m3 =O

[@derekhung6625]

To get 640km range in a 82kWh Tesla Model 3 Long Range is amazing. I think that must be thanks to slow Norwegian speed limits! Driving too fast will miss the beautiful scenery of Norway.

[@niyazzmoithu20]

*74.4 KWh

[@rafaelo1]

Beautiful landscape!

[@kqschwarz]

Great format. Loved it.

[@williamlabarre4755]

Oh yeah good test. Keep it going!

[@Gazer75]

An average speed of around 70km/h is fairly normal outside motorways in Norway. It can even be lower if you use the more narrow and winding county roads. And it depends on where you are in Norway, as the topography will dictate how winding the road is.

[@johnyves1246]

Really enjoyed this test just like the ol” days. I plan on driving my M3 LR from Corsica to Norway in late July and stay in local hotels on the way as they come…thanks to Björn for showing me around ahead of time..

[@okjhum]

Bjorn, I love your videos also for the awesome views of the awesome Norwegian sceneries. Still waiting for my own German model Y.

[@doggnamedchip]

Great content, loved that it was different from the usual ones. And a very sneaky only fans joke haha :D (At 3:42 if anyone missed it)

[@bgbthabun627]

sorry but i didnt get it still.

[@StormyDog]

Liked the skijoring shot!

[@cez8017]

We the guys, like this test. Thanks!

[@nakfan]

YES - Do it again...Loved it 👍

[@user-yf9pk4yj2p]

My SR 2022 would 90km/H consumtion is 120Wh. Of i do 60km/H, i would have lower as 100 Wh. White Seat makes your video looks very bright and cozy.

[@Nickbaldeagle02]

It must be lovely to drive in a country with no traffic.

[@bjornnyland]

Pro tip: Drive on weekdays. Friday - Sunday = way more traffic and also some stau

[@Gazer75]

Doing this trip during a holiday start/end would have been a nightmare compared to this. End of Easter here west on E16 people going back to Bergen spent 90 minutes to drive 20km IIRC.

[@richh650]

Such a spectacular beautiful drive Bjorn. Please do more of these when you are able as these exploration drives are perfect. One thing I notice is even on the back roads of Norway, the pavement quality appears to be almost perfect. Are there no pavement potholes in Norway? LOL

[@mariuspettersen3255]

9,41km per kwh on my Kona today, on a 115km trip, 15degrees outside avg speed 75km/h. 64kwh battery = 602kilometers on 100%

[@mariuspettersen3255]

My wife and kid and dog pluss 2 big suitcases in car

[@mariuspettersen3255]

Ac on 21,5 degrees

[@robinholmes785]

Nice change of pace :)

[@andreatoffolo3488]

im doing everything i can to have some money back to move in norway in 5-10 years. It feels too awesome to me!

[@JosephGwynneJones]

It's a really good test that show a typical real world range but at the same time, we should be aware that it's not a test that you can easily replicate to be the same for every car because at any time - anything goes on these roads! We can use it as a guidance of how it may perform typically. I'll love to see a M3 Standard Range on that kind of drive. For ranges I'll continue to use your 90/120 tests as that's more comparable to other cars since on that one, we know you aim to keep it the same for each car, with same average speed etc.

[@electrifiziert1362]

A great Video 👍🏻 thx for this ! Very Informative !

[@nahkanukke]

Thanks for these videos , You are a hard guy;) Hope you can test Tesla s plaid soon;)

[@swedishchefdave49]

Great video and I now realise I must buy the Tesla model Y, keep changing the routes, this was a great video

[@manfredo4287]

Wonderful trip, great efficient car, super video!

[@ericvet8b]

Gorgeous views up there!! If you have time, I would like to see more of these “normal” driving in other cars… Impressive range and consumption… summer tyres?

[@ramalhoalex]

Nice test. I liked it!

[@guso63]

Yes, Nice test ! We want more 🙂

[@Bultish]

I was here doing randonné for the first time this easter 🤩🤩

[@MassivePaper]

Not gonna lie, I was waiting for ionic home home, I was not disappointed:)

[@MichaelEricMenk]

As the commercial to Statens Vegvesen (Norwegian DMV) states that most people observe the speed limit... So this type of driving is common in Norway...

[@whitemind111]

Wow! model 3 LR driving range is 600km! It's amazing!

[@k9ps]

Nice test, id like to see it again.

[@MikeLuke]

Model 3 LR for the win. Still the best EV you can buy on the market. The total package.

[@thabangmagana869]

Nice Bjorn! 🙌🏿

[@raphi25895]

7:00 every ID with ID 3.0 can do this if 10 or more cars have already driven the route manually with ID 3.0. Since swarm data is now being used.

[@avatr7109]

Such beautiful scenery If I ever get to Norway I am going to Bjohns house

[@MrVurtan]

For what reason did you cover the glass roof? I like those tests and the videos you make out of them. The information is great to show the real world for an EV, while the shots and music is top!

[@petert511]

Hi Björn! Great IRL testing 👌 I have just ordered a model 3 LR. Part of my sales district are many of your testing routes. What app are you using for all the data that you provide. Mvh/BR Peter T

[@marcelbeaucamp9330]

I would by a model 3 long range at once. Only problem ist: It costs about 55 k Euros in Germany, after incentives and the trunk door is annoyingly small, so I could not take a bike with me.

[@charlesbuzz]

Love it , nice to see other one like this

[@AA-qg2hu]

Excellent video, really enjoyed…..

[@eriklevin8447]

Our 2020 DM Long Range is good for no more than 400km of normal real world driving here in Australia

[@dangernoodle511]

“Tesla autopilot is king” that’s all I need to know

[@Jeroenneman]

It certainly is good, but I was unpleasantly surprised last night. Found out adaptive cruise control doesn't go any higher than 150km/h. for night driving with very low traffic on the road, I want to be able to set it higher.

[@vasiliyt8600]

Incredible range. I wish my country would have more chargers to make EV cars worth to buy.

[@Ricqu]

This video convinced me.

[@jenshed7398]

Great. I have a Volvo Hybrid and that one definitely differs in capacity kWh depending on temperature. Small battery but a full pack, fully loaded can differ from 7kWh and 9.5 when empty. Same day and one cold battery charge and one warm charge. I think that the battery will stack the kWh differently depending on the different chemistry depending on the different temperatures. I'd like to se BMW eDrive 40 do that stretch. I'll have a delivery next year for one of those 😉

[@blocbonbon]

You should do food critique as well :D @6:00

[@samari240]

wish i could show a screen shot on here. my avg is 174 wh/km . but just driven a week like miss daisy with a few mad moments and the reset trip is down to 136wh/km. range approx at that is 540klm. i charge with my solar, so the only expence is tyres........... only got 3500 klm on so far, hi from southern spain.

[@GaryJohnWalker1]

Enjoyed this particularly. This is more like a general usage review - with the biewing knowing it is an impression of how well the car will go and not an exact match against the last or next EV you do this type of video with. But if you do this again - the latest Niro EV would be good! Not very sexy, but a very popular car in Europe.

[@danedane6613]

Do it with an EQS in the summer :)

[@dumitru_sirbu]

Yes please. Do this with a MEB car, preferable with dual motor, heat pump and coupe version (enyaq, q4, id5). Thank you!
