My bad , yes I was doing 120KM/H, so 75MPH.

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...

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...

there aren't any. The price of the car in ON would be 56,980+ 13% tax= $64,387

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.

Thanks. Tesla just replaced it for me this morning!

Anyone know where to buy a license bracket for the back?

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.

thank you for the information. Appreciate it! And yes my car was made in May 2021, I checked and it has an 82kWh battery.

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...

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

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...

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...

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...

Love the red! So sexy.

I've driven the Y , its a great vehicle. But I bought the 3. Here's why: 1) Faster 2) Better connection/handling to the road 3) Looks sexier

I love my Tesla! Still get butterflies when I get inside over a year later. No more ICE cars for me.

Yep , same battery as the Model 3 LR's since April 2021.

Same here!! Always wanted black but got talked out of it because it would be "too hard to keep clean" so I went with white. Im happy with white, but its becoming quite common. Black seems more rare. But when its clean there's nothing sexier. Just to keep it clean...

I find with the black orbitals its super important to keep your tires black. The covers look a bit weird when the tire is a dull black/dirty. I keep a few bottles of blackening spray in my garage. Every week I wipe them down with rich glossy black spray. Looks so much sexier.

Looks amazing!! Ive decided my next Tesla will be red. More unique and the paint is stunning. White seats too. I mean look at that shine!!

I charge mine 90% from home and 10% superchargers. Only charged it to 100% twice since I owned the car. A few times up to 90%. But the vast majority of times have been in the 20% to 80% range.

I've had my car for almost 1 year now. I've put on 20,000KM (12,000 miles), and my max range went from 567km to 560km. Barely any degradation so far.

Random question... does anybody have insight into how Tesla salespeople are paid? I asked one of the salespeople today and he said they don't discuss their compensation to the public. I was just curious if they are paid commission per every car sale? Or is it just a salary that doesn't change...

All model 3 LR's in USA/Canada built after March 2021 have the 82kWh battery pack.

Reading these threads brings me back to earlier this year. I ordered mine in April 2021 and received it in June. It was the longest 60 days ever!! I checked the site 2-3x per day and was on this forum all the time. Bought accessories, watched YouTube videos, got some feedback from Tesla owners...

Well lets see it's not just a 58K car. I got the LR myself so it was 72K with tax. But many people had other expenses as well like -Electrical retrofitting, PPF, Graphene Coating, Window Tints, brake calliper painting, winter tires/ custom rims, floor mats/frunk cover Where do you draw the...

Yes I'm pretty sure you're right. If you use your existing rims and just put the new winter tires on them you'll be good.

Im in Barrie, ON. Congrats on your purchase you're going to love it. The red is a sexy colour it was in my top 3. Even if you get the 2021 model its legit no different then the 2022. Identical 82 kwh battery, identical sound system, identical speed/features.

I just installed my new winter tires/rims without the TPMS. Those babies are $125/tire so over $500 for the set. Very expensive. Anyways the car runs just fine without it. A little exclamation mark shows up on the screen but thats it. I plan to keep an eye on the air pressure but I've never had...

Hahaha , well at least you're in Oakville. Im up in Barrie. Congrats though man, they look amazing.

Also from ON here. The LR is worth the extra money especially with our cold winters. I know people with the SR+ in Ontario who can't even drive 200KM in the winter before they have to charge. The LR gives you that extra security with the AWD (better in winter), plus its way faster. Worth the...

Yes I've read the LFP battery doesn't degrade however in cold climates it performs very bad. Like half the range gone.

Tesla has been putting the 82KWH batteries in their LR models since April. Mine was assembled in late May and I have the 82Kwh battery but my car also came with the old range.

Is it true the new battery coming in the basic model 3 will not degrade? So it will be 410KM forever? If so that's pretty awesome.

My 2021 Tesla 3 LR (82kwh Panasonic battery) has 11,000KM on it now. Full charge is 567km no different then when I first bought it. Also I did a test this summer to see if I could get the 567KM advertised. I charged the car to 90% (511KM) and drove exactly 410KM at 70-100KM/H. I got home with...

Ahh okay makes sense!

Canada's Tesla website dropped the LR from 568KM to 538KM. Anyone have any idea why?

The Canadian Tesla website just pushed the LR models range from 568km to 538km. Anyone sure why?

I love coming into this thread to see all the mods people have done. It's awesome how everyone is making their car unique and stand out. Some truly amazing pictures in here keep them coming!

Did a little photo shoot of my car last week

Wow that's brutal! Glad I ordered mine when I did. I love these covers. Now lets just hope I don't wreck one or I'm screwed. Well I guess I would just ship them to my Florida house and pick them up when I go visit but still a hassle.

Oh thats weird they used to. I live near Toronto and they shipped them to me just a couple months ago. Try calling or emailing them?

I posted pics of my car a few pages back. I have the black orbital covers with red painted callipers. You can see them yes but they aren't as noticeable as the stock rims underneath. Here are a couple...

It's a 73K car here in Canada including taxes, on par with any high end BMW, Mercedes, Lexus, or Audi. If this isn't a nice expensive car then Im not sure what is. Do you need to spend 250K on some rare Lamborghini to justify a couple thousand dollars in paint protection? First thing I did was...

A couple shots of the Rimetrix rims on my car. Installed them myself including the weather stripping to prevent damage to the stock rims underneath. Was very easy and Im not that handy of a person haha.

Looks great now you just gotta get those callipers painted ;)

Haha most likely yes. I hit my 4th rainfall on Friday (quite heavy actually) and the auto wiper function worked perfectly. The only time I needed to hit the manual wipe button was from some moisture from other cars spraying up onto the windshield. It wasn't actually raining at this point but I...
