I've been a car nut since I was a teenager, and always active on car forums and my first impression on here is a good one, everyone very helpful.
My personal car is a 2013 Mercedes C63 AMG, so my test drive in the Model 3 (Long Range), had a lot to live up too, but it managed it very well, and as I keep saying the performance was way better than I was expecting and was probably what convinced me over other EV's, certainly more entertaining that my Company Vauxhall Insignia.
I have found it a fascinating and enjoyable experience to get acquainted with driving electric. In the case of the Tesla there's the obvious headline performance that, though impressive, is not going to be a constant feature of everyday driving. However, the real life usage aspects of the constant torque delivery make driving a pleasure in everyday situations. Pulling out into traffic from junctions smartly but with no drama (the traction control doesn't get in the way, no clutch, gears) or seeing a chance to overtake and just pressing the pedal knowing that you are not going to be embarrassed by a hesitant auto change or alternatively not having to drop multiple gears to blast past with max revs and noise ... you just go! And, hey, my experience is from driving the SR+ not the Performance!
Then there's the new world of "one pedal driving" ... it's entertaining to see if you can get to your destination without using the brakes .. and save some charge into the bargain. You become as adept in lifting off the accelerator with gradual control as you do with pressing the pedal .. in fact for really smooth progress that is an essential (quickly acquired) skill. Some people think that as we move towards electric vehicles it will kill what we love about cars ... I have found it to be quite the opposite!
