Rory goes for a drive in the new Tesla Model 3 Performance, which some people have been referring to as the Model 3 Plaid. It has more power, more torque, more performance, a new motor, new seats, and has been comprehensively overhauled to help it rival everything in its class… and even a few unlikely suspects.

@@user-my4xu4gf1z nobody is saying the taycan isn’t a better looking car. But for almost double the price of a used taycan vs brand new Tesla it’s not comparable price/value wise the Tesla is faster, lighter and better network over the air updates, supercharging network plenty of things make the Tesla the winner by far other then looks.

But for the knowledge.

@byrd6563 3 күн бұрын

For sure. I bought my M3P a little over 1 year ago having never driven one. I was shopping for a Camaro SS but the dealerships were charging approximately $5,000.00 over MSRP, plus mandatory dealer addons and I just refuse to do that. Same story with the Charger or Challenger. I just figured YOLO and took a chance on the M3P, and I don't regret it. Being able to beat nearly anything on the road (in a midsize sedan no less) is fun, and the car is comfortable. The only time I go to a gas station now is to get gas for my lawnmower. I love the sound of a rumbling V8 and if I could afford it, I'd have one (or more) of those as well.

Fun fact this Model 3 performance weighs about 4050lbs which is -500lbs- 700 LESS than the new C63 AMG 4-cylinder hybrid BS. Edit: Caranddriver tested the new C63 and it weighed in at 4749lbs (more than most 3-row midsize crossover sold in America). So the Model 3 performance EV weighs ~700lbs LESS than the c63!!

I can't remember which, but there is at least one EV out there that makes an artificial kind of spaceship zooming sound when you accelerate quickly, and I remember a reviewer saying it was so pointless yet still brought him so much joy to get that audio feedback while driving. While faint, I agree that the electric whine I hear when I accelerate my (non performance) M3 does add to the enjoyment of speeding up. May be fun for Tesla to add that as an internal sound-effect at some point.

I recently had a day to drive the no stalks and I found. The implementation very nice and can find the button for right and left signal with my eyes closed. No stalks was pretty easy to get used to IMO. The slider approach to change from D to R was super easy to use. Took me about 10 min to be more comfortable with it.

@alexshepherd 20 күн бұрын

That’s really what I’ve always liked most about my 2019 Model 3 Performance. The balance and feel is just right, more solid than a Ferrari 430 and more nimble than a Lamborghini Gallardo. The steering is direct and precise, and it has been a faithful companion for nearly five years now. It never feels like the weight is all at one end or the other. Chassis rigidity is excellent, and the smoothness of the power delivery makes it easy to drive

@lachlanB323 19 күн бұрын

Ok, I will repeat what I heard from Jason Cammisa: Tesla's have always been really good for high frequency (Road texture and quick changes) feel, where it falls apart a bit is the understeer limit where it is hard to know whether you have hit it or not. BUT... he needs to do more testing as he was on a cliff face so he wasn't exactly going to fully test it. So it is good but not the best. But if you are really interested we need to wait until more testing is done!

Love my 2023 M3P but this new one looks awesome. However, I'd agree that I wish Tesla never took away the stalks... Also, I like quiet, and if anything, I wish my M3P was even quieter. I guess I'm just old and doesn't care for engine sounds anymore lol

Value for what you get is what sold me on teslas a few years back. I really disliked them from 2013-2018. Model 3 performance is a game changer when it comes to value performance. You’d have to spend double to even compete in an ICE car with higher expenses to run.

⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@@BbronsonThat’s exactly why people hate them. Literally any electric car is going to have a very fast launch and high torque, it’s not special or difficult. Even a granny can own an EV that launches faster than a lot of performance cars. 0-60 is now an irrelevant stat completely because all electric cars are unnecessarily fast. EVs are stupid and it’s such a big delusion that they’re the future, they really don’t make any sense in the long term.

I’m more curious about the 60-90 mph acceleration. I have the older 2022 M3P which is close in 0-60 to this one. Where my older M3 performance sucks is the freeway acceleration, so I wonder if this one is much better at freeway pulls.

What is the road noise like? I was in a model 3 for the first time ever in February on my trip to San Francisco and was really surprised just how noisy it was on the motorway. Like my Audi with all it's windows rolled down going a 100. I hope they improved that because for me it is one of the most important aspects of a car.

I am a bit taken back by this, but also, lots of stuff doesnt add up: Faster than previous model ? they claim 460hk LG 79kWh for EU :( 510hk for the US version because of panasonic 82kWh for the new performance -the old one is registered as 514hk (perhaps that is just the engines combined and not the real output performance of the car) Longer range they claim ? WLTP was 567km for the 2022 3P... the new one is 528km WLTP... is it Tesla that is chasing the dragon or is it me ??? It sucks that we in the EU get the Performance version on a "limp mode" because of the LG battery with lower peakpower output (-50hk) - and even shorther range (-3kWh) so is it because of the massive rear tires that the WLTP has gone down the drain compared to the previous performance model or what, or is it a combo of the 79kWh battery and bigger wheels width ? The seats are a welcome update, the overall exterior design is very tastefull! Missing stalks is a turn off, but probably a habit (i have test-driven the Highland 3LR for 2 hours) So the perfect build for me would have been: 82kWh Panasonic for ALL performance A HUD display of some kind (when it is a speed demon!) wishfull thinking... stalks for gear and turn signals currently owning a ModelS 85D 2015 and Model3 LR Boost 2021.. was hoping to replace the old Model S.. but now it is not a clear choice... When will someone do a range-test and more interestingly a 100-200km/h test ? we dont care if it is 3.4 sek 0-100 or 3.1, but highway/freeway speeds are what needs extra umph from the old model3...
