    M3 SR+ or LR AWD

    Hi all, My needs at the moment are met by SR+. However work and family changes can mean my commute can change. If I were leasing the car, I would have gone with SR+. Owning the car means that I cannot predict my commute situation 4-5 years from now and a little (albeit expensive) future...

    M3 SR+ or LR AWD

    Thanks to everyone who replied. I enquired about LR-RWD and it is not available. I will decide in a couple of days.

    M3 SR+ or LR AWD

    I usually get 4 hours charging but that is usually enough for my commute.

    Thanks for the detailed information. As a LEAF driver, I am not entirely new to the range variation but was unfamiliar with some of the technical terms. The purpose of this posting is to make an informed decision and I truly appreciate all the comments and information I am getting here. I plan...

    M3 SR+ or LR AWD

    M3 SR+ or LR AWD

    sorry, I am not aware what constitutes a "cycle" for the battery pack. Also, what do you mean by "100% EPA driving efficiency". Both those numbers sound pretty good. I am hoping I would be able to use robotaxis by the time I hit that kind of mileage :)

    M3 SR+ or LR AWD

    The growing EV range is a very good point. As a LEAF driver, I have drooled over the range available in other vehicles. I thought 240 miles would be good enough but I think range will always be an issue unless we hit 500 miles.

    M3 SR+ or LR AWD

    Thanks for the reply. There is no snowfall here. Tesla website also says 8 years/120K warranty for LR AWD. It is 8y/100K for SR+

    M3 SR+ or LR AWD

    Hi folks, I am looking to order a Model 3 and looking to get your advice on SR+ RWD vs LR AWD. My round trip commute is 45 miles. Wife's car is a minivan that I plan to use for long trips. In my understanding the charging for LR is 50% faster than that for SR+ when used with superchargers. Are...
