Imagine you miss a payment on a Tesla and it drives itself back to the dealership 😆

13:20 about the heat pump. In a fridge, the heat pump pulls heat energy from inside the fridge and dumps it outside (which is why the back of a fridge is always warm). So it’s just a question of which side of the system you want. If you’re using it for heating your car, you take heat energy from outside (or waste heat from the battery and motors) and move it inside the cabin. Heat pumps can pull energy from outside air as cold -10°C. Below that, the resistive heater will have to come on.

I love Matt's reviews . He is the perfect combination of adult and a child . He makes reviews fun to watch . Hats off to Matt Watson 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

So here’s my experience, my father and I are car enthusiast we’ve both owned and driven many very nice/high-performance vehicles. My father has been considering buying a Tesla for quite some time yesterday my father and I decided to test drive the model Y long range/and performance by the end of the test drive, we were both completely blown away and we were both under the impression we just drove the best vehicle available today last night after the test drive he bought one /ordered it. It’s truly unbelievable

I’m convinced that Matt Watson is solely responsible for the entire auto industry using squidgy materials on their dashboard

The editors had a field day with this video

13:18, Yes Mat, essentially a heat pump is the opposite of a refrigeration cycle (inverse of an air-con) and considerably more efficient than an electric element heater.

"Emma Watson and you're watching Carwow!"

Me: *at gun point* Gunman: what are you going to do now? Me: *googles help me carwow*

"I'm not doing this again I don't care what the producer says" LMAOO

Out of all the Tesla review videos I’ve seen this is by far the best one

okay boys...just got my model 3 performance...all i can say is WTF!!! the way this thing kicks you back even at 50% throttle is just INSANE!! makes my corvette feel like a damn tonka toy car...do I miss my gurbling V8 and those exhaust pops, yes...but not enough to want to go back to it! I guess, once you own a Tesla, you always own one. I've only had the car for like 4 hours but just stunned by the performance. I can't wait to dominate MOST muscle/super cars!

Lol "launch fa-- No, I'm not doing this again"

they should at least make Performance model look more different from normal ones

When Matt said "avoid" it I was like "Matt! TF you on??" 😂😂

For those who are interested, a refrigeration/heat pump system is based on a thermodynamic concept known as Carnot Cycle. This is the concept that work can be extracted from a process of heat transfer from a hot source and a cold source. For a refrigeration system, this is a reverse Carnot cycle system which consists of 4 components and a working fluid. The working fluid in both refrigeration and heat pump cycles is known as a refrigerant (e.g. r-134a, r-1234yf, etc). These fluids are used due to their low boiling point. Components: 1. Compressor 2. Condensor 3. Throttle Expansion Valve 4. Evaporator Refrigeration Cycle (See link): 1-2: The working fluid (refrigerant) is compressed from a vapour into the superheated vapour region, increasing the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant far beyond the surrounding temperature. Work is input into the system through the pump. 2-3: The superheated vapour then travels through a condenser which rejects heat into the environment, condensing the superheated vapour into a liquid state. In a refrigerator, this is the element which is located behind the fridge. 3-4: The liquid then enters the throttle valve which causes a large drop in pressure, rapidly decreasing the temperature of the working fluid and also causes the working fluid to become a saturated liquid-vapour mixture. 4-1: The cooled refrigerant can now flow through an evaporator which absorbs the heat from the refrigerated space, returning the working fluid to a vapour phase. This is located inside the fridge system and is what reduces the temperature inside the fridge. Heat Pump Cycle: This is literally the reverse. You use the condenser to heat up the air, which you can now circulate inside the car. This will use less energy than an electric element due to the lower power input of a pump, which is the only energy input to the system required.

24:10 In the middle of the drift, "Click on the pop-out banner"

23:47 Seagulls every morning outside my window

glad to see the interior quality getting addressed. charging pads a welcome addition however bluetooth music streaming is no substitute for android auto or carplay.

Great review. I followed your advice and bought one. Awesome performance but so easy and relaxing to drive.

The editors sure had fun with this one, haha.

When he said "you should avoid it" at the end 😳... He's funny guy 😂

That water bottle was like:- wtf are you doing man, I’m trying to relax just let me relax!!!

24:30 They had us in the first half, not gonna lie

Model S, 3, X or Y... What's your favourite Tesla?

Matt: I cant get one because I live in a flat Also Matt: ordering my Tesla model S plaid+

Its honestly so groundbreaking to see a company like Tesla grow in the quality of their cars and becoming more solid. 21st century technology and KZfaq helps us normal people to see Tesla's growth over the past few years

When he said “AVOID” I made a 🤜🏼 and then I was like ✌🏼

Time to isolate the clip of Matt acting like a fish.

I'm an ME (Mechanical engineer) and the way you described a heat pump is perfect. it's a reverse refrigerator/AC system. The underlying principle behind a heat pump is that boiling a liquid (turning it into gas) takes a lot of heat energy and stores it in the liquid and condensing a liquid (turning it form a gas to liquid) takes heat out of the liquid and emits it to the local area. to control whether the gas/liquid wants to boil or condense at a given temperature all that's necessary is to control the pressure. low pressure makes liquids want to boil, and high pressure makes the liquid want to condense. so on the "outside" the liquid is kept to a low pressure, making the liquid boil, taking heat energy out of the area outside the car. the liquid is then moved to another chamber inside the car where the pressure is increased. this makes the gas condense into a liquid. The heat that was transferred to the fluid when it boiled is now transferred inside the car. So what the heat pump is doing is cooling the air outside the car to heat up the air inside the car. The reason this is more efficient that using a resistive heater is because all the heat that warms the cabin has to come from the electricity to heat the resistive coil. A heat pump gets most of it's heat from the air outside the car that it's cooling off. the energy drain on the battery is actually just the Mechanical energy used to compress the and move the fluid around. Which is way less power, and it means you lose a lot less range when the temperature dips.

03:49 The glove box is supposed to hold the usb safe for sentury mode.

Just press the right button wheel and use the voice commands (they work!). You can access pretty much anything on the menu through it, including opening the glove box. Much easier. Plus, Matt never expects petrol cars to hit their nameplate acceleration.

His joke at the end just made me realise i've actually never heard him say "avoid the car"

16:30 Salman Khan wants to know your location 😂

I drove the model 3 and my normal driver is a Tacoma, and the model 3 gave me much more visibility and comfort than I ever thought a car could gove

I have to say, Richard’s channel is really good 👍

shout out to the owner letting him drift it.

I cant wait for your plaid plus to come!

The glove box is controlled centrally because it can be locked and unlocked remotely from your phone if you use the car as a robotaxi. If it was manual you would have to remember to lock it with a key everytime it went to pick up a fare. It also opens automatically in an accident to retrieve the data/video logging USB.

The facelift (atleast the performance model) have the parking function that tilts the sidemirror when you put it in reverse. Just set it too your liking while in reverse and it will remember it.

The principle of heating pumps is that you use compression and expansion to increase or decrease the temperature of a heating medium (typically a HFC-solution) more than the ambient temperature would. Basically, you have a closed loop, filled with HFC. Part of that, called an evaporator, has a very low pressure, which means that the HFC will boil and become a gas at very low temperatures. In this stage, the HFC absorbs heat. Then, the HFC passes a compressor. This increases the pressure, which both increases the temperature of the HFC, and turns it back into a fluid. Now, the hot HFC passes into a part called the condenser, where it drains its heat into the environment. Finally, the now chilled HFC passes into an expansion valve, where it drops in temperature and returns to a gaseous for due to lower pressure. Then the cycle repeats. Depending on what you want to do, you place the evaporator and the condenser on different parts of your system. If the evaporator is inside, and the condenser is outside, you'll cool what's inside. It's a fridge. If the evaporator is outside and the condenser is inside, you'll heat what's inside. It's a heating pump. There's your basic breakdown of compressor technology for you, Mat!

FYI, the state of charge of the battery affects your launch time. To get the fastest launch you need to be at 80+%.

Why don't any reviewers ever mention that most things, including the glove box, can be done using voice commands?

mat: why are the back seats so uncomfortable and why do the windows not go fully down tesla: yes but the doorbins

12:05 look at the paint on the back mirror

The minute I saw the alcantara dash strip, I knew this was Richard Symon’s car... and I’m in the USA. The man’s synonymous with Tesla UK at this point

He got me on "avoid" it. I hated you for a second 😂

tried it yesterday and felt sick all day .unreal acceleration

Mat: I live in a flat, therefore I can’t really have a Tesla Mat: *Orders Tesla Model S Plaid+*

Finally better microphone for Matt, my ears thank you

Voice control to the rescue..... “Open glove box”

Matt a correction is needed in regard to your comment on the setting mirrors. Both exterior mirrors can automatically tilt downward when Model 3 is shifted into Reverse. When you shift back into Drive, the mirrors return to their normal (upward) position. So example of far of setting mirrors not quite correct. To turn this feature on or off, touch Controls > Quick Controls > Mirrors > Mirror Auto Tilt.

3:17 - "they are a bit large" *proceeds to not getting the bottle to fit in*

Launch face killledd me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The centre cubby slides back on it's own Mat, don't pull it like thaaat😅

99% journalist : doing 1 0-60. Matt, doing 10x and searching the maximum performance

When you reverse the mirrors automatically go down a little for you to spot the kerb.

This is the quickest car on the price range that you can buy and I think is one of best interior on the range as well, plus is electric. No gas money, no combustion,perfect performance, best car ever.

Just got the standard range plus and it’s worlds apart from my old Peugeot 2008e gt. can’t believe the Tesla was only 3k more.

13:15 The new heat pump is a HW change that adjusts temperature of the batteries for optimal performance (i.e. for cold weather). It actually improves battery performance up to 30% which wasn't possible in the previous models.

Had it for a daylong test-drive 2 weeks ago. And I might say it is tremendous. The funniest thing, Model 3 Standard is similar in price as VW ID.3. And are not comparable even - Model 3 is a way another level of feelings. Seriously thinking of buying it this or next year instead of my GTI

24:34: You really had me in the first half.

Never liked the idea of the electric car at all, but today I got the chance as a passenger to have a ride in the Dual motor Tesla, and my God I have to say the acceleration it has is unbelievable quick. If I had the money lying about I have to say I'd be tempted.

I'm still convinced that most of the QC issues with Teslas are because they're all built at the Freemont plant rn. Would love to see a review of a chinese Model 3 or a german Model Y once those ship or even one from the new Texas Plant.

10:28 the way the panels flexed when you touched them....

I wish I had a girlfriend as loyal as Matt's loyalty to Burberry

reverse refrigeration : we compress optimal gas and compression produces heat (unlike electric heating which is complete loss of energy, in refrigeration technique it this compressed energy can be use to cool also)

I am sure that heat pump question was just a bait and a joke but here is my shot at explaining in layman’s terms: simple electric heater would use 1kwh electricity to deliver 1kwh heat (3.6MJ), heat pump would use 3-4times less electric energy to deliver the same heat so say 0.3kwh. Gas is used that can be compressed with the pump and thus the temperature would rise. The compressed side is the hot side. The hot side is used to blow hot air in the car and by doing so, cooling the hot side of the heat pump system. Then the gas is let to expand on the cold side. The expanded gas has very low temperature because heat was already taken from it when it was compressed to heat the car. The expanded gas temp. is much lower than the outside air so it can absorb heat from outside and then be compressed again to the hot side and so on. Heat pump is much more complex device than a simple resistive heater though.

I love how honest you are about the car. I'm glad you aren't a diehard Tesla fanboy that ignores every bad aspect. It's okay to be a fanboy that critiques the car you love. Critiquing the car is what leads to a better Model 3 being produced.

God that fish edit got me, good job to whoever edited the video that was brilliant

Whats a Tezzla?

Cheers Mat, my son just had his delivered this week,so very interesting. 0 to 60 is beyond my imagination.

23:49 that laugh tho 😂

When he said avoid it I was like “Surely not?!”

Something like a reverse refrigerator? Start by looking up "Peltier chips", they can be used for heating, reverse the polarity and now they cool, very cold in fact. And you can also use them to turn heat into electricity. And the nice bit about them is you can buy them starting at under $3 Canadian for the 12v 3amp models and they make bigger ones as well. You will find them in coolers that can also keep food warm by plugging them into your lighter socket. That's the first thing that comes to mine anyway. If you are in a pinch you can make a fridge from Styrofoam Gorilla Glue and a couple of heat sinks using this chip and it gets cold! Takes about 20 min to build and is handy when your fridge breaks down or you are camping, don't reverse the polarity though or your fridge will melt.

Love Mat's reviews... He's always complaining about the gloveblox. There's a quite clever reason for not opening the gloveblox pressing a button. It's for safety reasons. This way Sentry's mode USB flash drive is safe from intruders. Menu's can change frequently and some buttons can be hard to find though, but you can always use voice commands. Also adjusting mirrors is a thing you setup once for your profile, that is loaded based on the phone that opened the car. You can also adjust mirrors to behave differently when reversing. Have my Model 3 for almost 2 years now and so far no regrets.

15:43 That’s what I’m here for 😂😎

Apart from the noise, it’s silent - Mat 2021

A small HUD where traditional instrument clusters are would really make this a lot better and feel a lot more futuristic

12:15 Mat does shadow clone jutsu

*"What's new is the new Tesla Model 3?"* Me- "The price?"

Matt you don't necessarily have to use the menu system like you do, it does have voice commands

Damn Matt you are really underrated . This literally has the charisma of top gear

Autosteer and full self driving have the same requirements for pressure on the steering wheel. Its not that sensitive, you hold it in a way that the system knows you can take back control. If it thinks you are not touchuning the steering wheel it gives warnings first, it doesnt just disengage.

12:06 THE ORANGE PEEL my gosh

12:05 did anyone else notice how shocking the paint work is on the wing mirrors?

10:27 wow... i guess that's the premium quality metal flex

I just ordered a tesla mod 3. when you said at the end to avoid buying it, my heart stoppen :P

I’m in class once again, will watch this later

I guess the editor had a field day with this video. Cheers mate!!! You did a wonderful job.

When using auto pilot, you don’t need to nudge the steering wheel to keep it active. Instead you can adjust the audio or the cruise control speed limit with scroll buttons. That does the trick with the least amount of effort.

You can use the voice command to adjust things faster.

As usual, Mat and his Burberry flexing habit.

Wr are still waiting for the running race

Thanks for the video, fun to watch. Just ordered one 4 weeks ago n getting excited for my new car 😊

"it's really nice having this glass roof" said no one in Australia

I am a heat pump engineer, it’s reverses the cooling from your AC system (or standalone system) to produce heat rather than cooling, the heat pump will have a COP of at least 3 where the COP in pure direct electrical system provide a COP of 1. Help this helps ?

Matt: “Avoid it”...... Tesla Fanboys: TRIGGERED.... Matt: Jk.... Tesla Fanboys: Mhm

I have a Tesla. love it. It hauls. No one will even try and drag me. (Which sucks). I’m never going back to ICE engines. I do all my own maintenance and knowing I can flog my Tesla from cold and basically don’t have to stress about engine gearbox, driveline and brake maintenance is literally the best feeling. Oh, and done 30,000km off my own solar, and never HAD to stop for a charge… I’m WAAAAAAAAAAY up (if you like to argue that charging is inconvenient). You would have stopped at a servo over 50 times by now assuming your ICE car gets 600km from a tank. (Assuming an average fuel stop takes 8 mins, that’s 400 mins credit I have for the day I DO have to stop to charge on a road trip - for which I have cafe’s, games and Netflix) but it will charge at over 1200km/h charge rate on all my local super chargers….. so maybe 30 mins max stop time remembering I can finish my charge at my destination. ICE engines are at their engineering peak of power and economy… meanwhile batteries are only going to get larger capacity and lighter… there is only faster and better performance ahead for EV’s.

the best part..Mat"s face during drift!!!!
