    Model 3 LR not currently available to order (USA) [posted 08.12.2022 --Its back! 05.02.2023]

    I have a unique experience. I had a 2021 Model 3 LR, rated at 354miles (567KM) , it was the Panasonic battery pack. I drove that for 2 years, and my experience was that it was certainly not the rated range in the real world. I would drive on the highway for 200KM yet I would burn through 270KM...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I had a 2021 M3 LR, but unfortunately got into a bad accident. Someone hit me and the car was deemed a total loss by insurance. So the insurance company paid me out. The amount they gave me was more than a brand new one so I bought a 2023 M3 LR inventory car. This time I got red. Im from...

    Reuters: "Tesla readies revamped Model 3 with project 'Highland' -sources" [projected 3rd quarter 2023]

    If Tesla does go the direction of no steering wheel, mandatory autopilot I am 100% out. I'll be buying another brand. I like to have control over my car. That's the whole fun part of driving, that connection to the road. The freedom to control the responses.

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    Absolutely! To be honest I was preparing for way more battery loss. I was told from a few people that during your first year or two you can lose 10-15% of range. Im at the same point I was when I bought it give or take. So Im impressed.

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    Was wondering if someone can explain this to me. I set my charge last night to 70% , woke up this morning and my car was at 400KM. I did the reverse math and it took my 100% charge to 571KM. But when I bought my car it was rated at 567KM. How can my battery give me more range 16 months and...

    22’ LR range - 1000km return trip…real world range.

    Weird. Ive had my car over 15 months now, put 30,000KM on it. My 100% charge remains the same at 565-567km.

    22’ LR range - 1000km return trip…real world range.

    I also live in Canada. I did a similar trip with my Model 3 LR last summer. Charged to 100% which was 567KM at the time, drove from Barrie, ON to Milton to pick up friends(120KM) then to Belleville (230KM). So a total of 350KM. I had 4 adults in my car with 4 luggages. I arrived with 100KM left...

    Pic of your Model 3.......RIGHT NOW! [model 3 pictures thread]

    Ive been noticing lots of Teslas up here in Canada in the last year especially. In my city alone (of about 150K people) there are a dozen white model 3s. To make mine stand out I've made a few changes: 1. Black out of front emblem 2. Black out of Dual Motor rear logo 3. Remove rear logo and...

    Are winter tires necessary with the long range dual motor AWD?

    I live in Canada, north of Toronto. We get our first snowfall in November each year, and the last snowfall usually in April. That's 5 months of potentially snowy conditions. Make the investment and buy the snow tires. It's 100% worth it and even though the Tesla is heavy and AWD... the tires...
