Silent Supercar-Killer Tesla Model 3 Performance Tested on Genting

[@leejunhong123]

M3P owner here, thanks Uncle for showing us the full potential of the car, my skill not powerful enough to make the PZero scream, but already sibeh fast for me hahahaha

[@YSKhongDriving]

Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@ChannaScaping]

love seeing the respect uncle gives to other cars. See all the other vids of genting where the drivers just blast by them or honk them from behind. This is proper civilized driving that allows us to enjoy our cars safely.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Thank you for your kind words. Yes, I am quite particular about safety, very kiasi!

[@AUNTHIAM]

and if you drive in Penang, there will be occasions where the moment you put on your indicator, the car at the fast lane will purposely speed up and flash / horn you from the back.

[@weililee]

Wow. This is the first time I see a car reviewer show what crazy acceleration on an EV is actually like! Nice video

[@TheSuperpong]

Hi YS Khong… how do you think this 3 perform vs. BMW m340i LCI ? I’m fine with acceleration and torque of both, but how about suspension, driving feeling, xDrive/AWD, cabin noise, etc

[@YSKhongDriving]

Will need a complete thesis. For sure the Trsla tops in power, and costs much less than the M340i. With the Tesla, you point and squirt. The 340i requires some driving. Which you choose depends on what you want.

[@drhakim2284]

Situ.. why I see on KZbin drag Volvo ex30 Vs this Tesla model 3... And win Volvo... Their same horsepower?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Torque, gearing, weight, grip level, driver - all are variables.

[@Areku06]

Ex30 also weights 800lbs-1000lbs more, even model y weights less than ex30. So model 3 performance will be much faster, both in straight and in corners.

[@ixm2unvrz]

10:45 I have to agree with uncle's statement. I'm not in the single bit scared when I had to run away driving past 200km/h from a black Toyota Fortuner whose extremely fragile ego I accidentally bumped while on the highway but I'd rather spend the night in an abandoned hospital than ride a roller coaster edit: please kindly do NOT drive 100 over the speed limit, it's very dangerous and against the law. The incident stated above is the only time I drove that fast and that was to avoid my injuries due to road rage and the guy in the Fortuner trying to ram me off the highway

[@YSKhongDriving]

It's okay: your secret is safe with us😅🤣😂

[@juddosborne305]

What are all those trucks transporting ? Lumber, rubber , lots of trucks.

[@CoDeXiTo]

[@CoDeXiTo]

@@YSKhongDriving I don't know what things are like in your country, but in any country it is mandatory to use turn signals and stay in your lane without having to invade the other side. If you don't respect that, you are not a good driver, just a person who likes to speed until one day you have an accident due to your recklessness. Greetings.

[@robertneville9731]

Uncle, were you driving the Model 3 with one-pedal control around the corners? Just curious because I’ve driven the Model 3 many times and barely touched the brakes!

[@YSKhongDriving]

If you drive normal, you can go one pedal mode. No I was not on one pedal mode. I had to brake going uphill.

[@talpolano4549]

[@ganwb79]

Were you doing one pedal driving? Was the physical brake needed when going into a corner?

[@YSKhongDriving]

One pedal driving is best for slow driving. I need to determine my own rate of slowing down and at many points I need to reduce speed pretty rapidly. Ability to slow down rapidly is just as important as acceleration.

[@sc3740]

Uncle YS, did you feel any moment of power cut ?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Not today.

[@royergraph]

Is this your fastest routine, uncle?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Not too sure, because we don't time it, and there is difference in traffic, but I would say where it could go, this is one of the fastest cars I have driven

[@shahwirashahwira9751]

Perhaps it is the cheaperst performance car in malaysia...-)

[@ltjkelvin8919]

Uncle YS, Tesla M3 P or BYD Seal 3.8, which drives better?

[@YSKhongDriving]

The model3P comes with stiffer suspension, bigger wheels, and what looks like Brembos, and P Zeros , so is better equipped for speed. And 3.0 seconds 0 - 100 is faster than the Seal - of course you pay more for the Tesla.

Actually it won’t smoke model 3 performance, it’s witches 800lbs more, they both run low 11s in 1/4 and both do 0-60 3.0s, however USA version of model 3 is faster than ioniq 5n, that will do 0-60 2.9s and 10.9 in 1/4.

[@juddosborne305]

@@YSKhongDriving thank you sir

[@17cmmittlererminenwerfer81]

Amazing performance but I can't imagine using 27% of a gasoline car's fuel capacity in a little run up the hill. I'd argue that short range and excessive recharging times remain the two great drawbacks of battery-powered vehicles.

[@YSKhongDriving]

500+ kilometer range is possibly better than an equivalent power ICE range. For me, if a car can go between 400 to 500km I am more than okay: with a growing charging network, it should be okay. If supplemented by a home 11kw charger, I would be quite comfortable.

[@FS-bg2kk]

I once thought the same as you, but after taking one for a drive, I was sold. You take the good and the bad with EVs, but I can confirm more good than bad! No other cars drive the same. Don’t let charging hold you back.

[@cv01302]

Uncle YS, judging by your BYD Seal Genting Hillclimb video about 6 months ago, I am given the impression that you enjoyed the Seal much better than the Tesla Model 3P, in terms of handling in sharp turns and more fun to drive (according to your reactions). Am I correct? :)

[@YSKhongDriving]

Both are different and have their individual charms. The Tesla has a bit more power and so requires a bit more seriousness. The tyres made a difference - the Seal was fitted with ECO tyres which made it slip a bit - so it was a bit more exciting.

TESLA model 3 is not super car killer , on par with sport car, Tesla Model S Plaid should be the only one to be known as (super car killer)

[@YSKhongDriving]

Your opinion is valued, thanks for the input. So does that mean this Performance variant cannot eat any supercar?

[@Oklm23]

The model S plaid would be slower on this road than the M3P as it is a lot bigger/heavier, but it would smoke the M3P on a straight line of course.
