There has been some discussion in the past regarding the air filters in the model 3.
There are obviously the stock ones and then the chinese HEPA/carbon filters are quite popular too though they all don't really filter smells etc out. I.e. if there is a gas car accelerating in front of you you can often get a petrol smell.
There is an Australian company (CabinAirFilters) which makes aftermarket filters for lots of cars including the Model 3:
I thought I give this a go after the chinese HEPA filters as it is a bit different and not really readily available abroad. Have had those for around 2 months now.
I was initially not impressed - the filters looked really thin. Like almost half the thickness of the OEM/HEPA ones. But they are actually really, really good. I don't know about how the particulate performance is but you can drive around with recirculation off and you dont really get any smell inside. I think this is a great product.
They also have no clothfilter at all so they are probably quite good for people who get stinky AC.
