So after long consideration I placed my order for the M3 LR I went for a test drive today and the car was quiet, comfortable. It is very fast. I don't need a performance, I never go to the track, l don't drive more than 75 on Freeway, 50 on city streets and I don't want to worry about driving over potholes and ruining my rims and LR has better range. Glad I'm officially part of Tesla family. My first EV🎉🎉
I'd consider a car that does 4.4 seconds to 100kph to be "performance". I have one on order and it will have more than enough power for my needs, with a maximum speed on highways in my Australian state at 110kph.
Congratulations Aaron!
Happy and Safe Driving!
I agree with Paul, the LR is definitely extremely fast by most standards 😅
Best Tesla 3 video I’ve seen. Thank you so much, very helpful.
Getting my model 3 soon and will be my first EV. I think ive watched a million videos and this is by far the best at explaining everything in the car. Great work
EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT EXCELLENT! Must viewing for all of us who just ordered the model 3 highland…no muss, no fuss just facts. Thank you.
Thanks Will! Appreciate the support
Wow! You just ordered. Your first EV?
@@Evject. indeed a black model 3 highland and i got 2 clients to order their’s…a red one the other a stealth grey
@@willtee1526 As you know there are differences with Chinese and US Highland Models from what i heard, is there any actuall prove that US Highland Models do not come with fog lights included in the new headlights?
GREAT VIDEO, very comprehensive, your coverage of all the driver operation steps was excellent. The fun features were pretty cool as well. Thanks!
I learned on my test when adjusting side mirrors when ready to switch left or right instead of going to screen just press the left scroll wheel in and it will switch the mirrors for you. Great helpful video
I liked the glove box between 7:05 - 7:10
Great video. On the indicator buttons not activating (around 15 mins in) I have had the same problem and have taken it to the SC a couple of times. What they have advised me is to either hold the wheel at 10 and 2 or the lower section of the wheel. As if hands are close to the buttons in the resting position it senses pressure and locks the buttons sometimes. This has worked for me till now so hopefully helps.
I'm so thankful for this channel. Just the content I was hoping to find! You answer all the real questions one might have
Thank you, this is a very good video. I own a 2004 Tesla Model 3 for almost 2 moths (Europe), and learned several new things. Using voice commands to set the navigation destination actually works well, especially if you all your favorite locations good names that are not place names. Also for for stopping the navigation.
Thanks for this. Very helpful, and welcome to Portugal!
Yes please make a video about every feature of new model 3 especially since I just ordered one. I enjoy your content. Great video. I will subscribe.
Aaron ( United States)
Thanks Aaron! Appreciate the support. Enjoy your new car when it comes!
Another way to know where the indicator buttons are, is to imagine the steering wheel as a clock. Indicate right is always the clockwise direction. Then it becomes quit intuitive.
One more tip- when you have a home address set, you can swipe the navigate bar to the right and it'll navigate home. I think it also works for Work when you swipe left.
Thanks for the video ! :)
#Swipe to navigate home 🏠 #TESLA Model 3. Thank you @basedw 🔥
Greetings from Barcelona
Thank you so much for this video ❤, I’m expecting my new Tesla model 3 SR soon and your video is a must for new owners and straight to the point
Thanks for the tip!
Great video - I’m about to take delivery of an update to a Highland, from a much-loved ‘21 model, in Australia, so I’ve got some adapting to do. I’d have mentioned the “Save video on Honk” feature. If activated in settings, it will ensure a prior 10 minute video is stored, if an incident was encountered. Another point on Dog Mode is its disabling of window and door buttons, so that the ‘lil suckers cannot open anything, while left alone.
So cool to see this car driven somewhere I drive past frequently. I really love Vilamoura, but relocated to the Lisbon area recently.
Just ordered my Model 3, so exciting! It's basically the only car worth buying on the Portuguese market at the current price.
Very timely just picked up a M3 rwd plus two days ago. Please do a more comprehensive video next time. Wow there's so much I need to learn. Thanks mate!
Yes can you do a video where you outline every single thing step by step?? Thank U😊
Useful video. A comprehensive video on using voice control would be useful. I’ve found things like changing the radio station when driving to be difficult.
Excellent tutorial!
Yes can you do a video where you outline every single thing about the car step by step😊
Portugal is beautiful 😍 and tesla too
If you could run through all the features that would be awesome. Great and very informative videos. Just had our second test drive today for the M3 so we will ordering soon.
It’s a great car! I’m loving it more and more each day 😅 - remember to use my referral code to get free EAP/FSD if you don’t have a referral already 🙏
Thanks for the video! 2 more weeks until i receive mine, looking forward :D
Congratulations!! Enjoy your car and thank you for watching!
I have seen a ton of CZcams about the Model 3 2024 highland. This one is the most complete (together with the range test episodes). One trick about the touch screen. If you want to navigate HOME, just swipe down from the search field entry box. And you are good to go.
What’s the recommended charge for the model 3 long range? 80% charge?
Thanks I ll buy a new one soon.
How do you add radio channels? Or maybe iheart radio or equivalent?
excellent, thank you, I would like to see even more detailed video. How to manuallyh fold side mirrors, how to change the font size on the screen to make things larger, etc. Well done!
Just what i had in mind . Are you a shareholder?
i am not shareholder of Tesla, i am thinking about buying a RWD Model 3 in 2024....
@@yuribudilov5638 I really love it for the price and mileage for my situation
Can i charge my Model 3 at 32A or only 16A ?
What are the disadvantages ?
does it cost more?
can it damage the car?
something else ?
Thanks !
You've got yourself a new subscriber, my Tesla Ultra Red will be delivered by the end of this month and your video's are very usefull: thank you! One comment though: still not entirely understand what the pro tip meant handling roundabouts when the correct indicator is always on top? Is it possible to demo that with a few roundabouts? Both large and small roundabaouts?
Thank you for the support!
Congratulations on the new car! The ultra red looks so beautiful - especially in person.
I have another video where I discuss the roundabouts - but this is before I got used to using it. I’ll possibly include it in an upcoming Q&A video so stay tuned!
What I meant was the indicate “right” (to exit a roundabout) is always on the “top” of the steering wheel (I.e. top row of buttons)
@@europeinatesla thank you very much, we are very grateful buying a car like this. Thanks for the tip again, I think it makes sense now! 🙂
Hi my question how manu years you plan to keep and drive it 4?6?8?
Excelente vídeo parabéns. No Brasil tem muitos carros Tesla 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 .
Hi, you’re one of the only people I see with white exterior and the Nova rims.
Would say the Nova rims are shiny? I really liked the legacy model 3 19” Sport rims. The Sport rims look like a matte white.
Hi! Thank you for watching
No it's definitely not matte, it's actually a silver that is kinda dark in certain shades, definitely not white - it might be the lighting - you gotta see it in real life.
Would you be able to do a review of the sound please. Im looking to buy the standard range which i believe has 7 speakers (and no sub), just curious if it it still punchy and bassy enough. Thanks in advance.
The sound now is pretty good - it’s very punchy as they’ve added a subwoofer so there’s 9 speakers. But I feel the mid and mid-highs are lacking a bit. Once I have access to an LR model, I’ll do a comparison for you guys ❤️ thank you for watching
Great video content. Much appreciated. Keep it up.
Did you just say “passenger princess”?!!! 😂❤ brilliant I love that! Think I’ll be using that 👌
man that is like an old ass phrase....
@@rohanjosem Funny. Never heard it before. Had to look up the meaning. 😁
yeah sick@@Paul-ow9dd
How do you apply the handbrake - for example when you’re in heavy traffic or in a queue on a steep incline etc?
Really useful video, thanks for taking the time to make it! Enjoy your European adventures 😊
You don't need to - the car always holds and if it comes to a complete stop, there's auto-hold
@@europeinatesla oh great that’s good to know - haven’t driven a Tesla yet but might be getting one as a company car so am doing some research. Thanks for that swift reply 👍
Can you do a supercharging 10 to 90 in a 350 kw??? Or a 0 to 100 in a 350 kw supercharging please
Picking up my white Standard Model 3 next week, just like yours, here in Portugal. I also want to make some videos and revive this tech channel of mine. You helped in my decision as well. KEep up! ;)
Thanks Joao! Appreciate the support!
Firstly, thanks for the video man, I am just about to get a long range model 3 highland tomorrow so this has been a great overview of the car as a whole and good idea of what to do and expect.
I also live in Portugal, actually in Loule. Vilamoura is great, but can be completely nuts over the summer time, extremely busy, which is the same for all the coastal options or close to the coast in the Algarve. Its hard though to recommend somewhere else because I am 95% sure you are South African as well, if that is the case so am I and Vilamoura has a very SA type vibe matching places like St. Francis or some coastal towns around Cape Town and most of the other locations dont have that. The ease of walking around Vilamoura for example. But if you want comfort away from the crowds long term and over the Summer time but not too far away from the action I would say check out Almancil and areas above and below Loule. They are more afforadble and you get some decent options but also super limited. But if you dont mind the Summer time madness then Vilamoura is super lush and very nice.
Hey man! Thank you!! Congratulations - how are you finding the car?
Yeah - we are coming from Cape Town and it definitely has a really similar vibe! We will definitely take a look at the surrounding areas as well :-) nice to hear from a fellow South African in Portugal!
The car is amazing man. So smooth. Best car I have owned.
Cape Town, nice, I am from PE. Will probably run into you at Marshopping Mall Supercharger at one stage. Portugal is incredible man.
Have a good one. :) @@europeinatesla
if you do spot me, please don't be shy to say hi!@@rsdapshis1
How did you setup the iPhone’s action button to open the frunk? Did you use shortcuts? And can you set it up to open the boot instead? Cheers! Our TM3 is due in 6 weeks hopefully!
Yes! It's under shortcuts - you can create various from the Tesla app. You will be able to do it for the boot for sure!
All the best! You're gonna love it - it's a fantastic car
no front parking camera viewing option?
Check the service mode. I think the buttons on the steering wheel sometimes being delayed is caused by a communication issue, and I'm wondering if not being able to open the charging port with buttons on the charger cables is related, since my car does exactly the same.
Have you been able to open the charge port with the supercharger handles at all?
@@europeinatesla I have not yet tested a Supercharger or my wall connector, but with both my 1-phase and 3-phase mobile chargers the button does not work. Also with the car unlocked it does not work. (pressing the cover, the button on the screen and the button on the app all do open the port, so I wasn't too bothered by it.)
So on the cyber truck and model 3 the buttons on the steering wheel are actually buttons , I had the same problem when I went on my test drive when I pressed the indicators they sometimes wouldn't engage. I found that you need to press firmly , since they are physical, and this has eliminated the issue. Hope this helps
It seems still to be touch sensitive with haptic feedback - but with a floaty plastic panel instead of actual buttons. The reason I get this impression is if you press the inactive button (below the cameras button) - there’s no haptic feedback and the “button” doesn’t budge
nice,,, i wish tesla would add a pre heat battery tab that ppl can hit at anytime so we dont have to nav to a charger to turn it on
Hello, Alan. I'm undecided between the SR and the LR of the Model 3. Why did you choose the SR? Don't you miss more engine power and better audio?
Hi Joao! Thank you for watching my videos - basically I had to purchase the car cash and I didn't want to spend too much. If I could get finance, I probably would've went with the LR
(more details in my Q&A here: I answered this question here: czcams.com/video/8O9VgUT4NZ0/video.html)
To be honest though, I haven't felt that the range isn't enough - even my roadtrips to Porto (550km) haven't been a problem because the supercharging network is so good here.
Let me know if you have any other questions if you need help deciding - I think the LR is great if you are planning to do spontaneous longer trips, but remember - your car will probably be charged at 80% or less most of the time.. with the SR model, I have it close to 100% and charge it to 100% everytime I charge.
Do you think a dashboard cover carpet is advisable?
Will it block led lighting.?
Yes it will. Why do you need that ? There’s almost no reflection
Would you recommend this as a first EV? I prefer SUV like style but I feel like M3 RWD is the best value. I currently drive Toyota Camry and I usually drive by myself.
For the price, I think the Model 3 is an excellent car - the Model Y is definitely a lot bigger but if you're coming from a Camry, this isn't that much smaller.
It is my first EV and I'm loving it.
Tesla takes care of so many things with charging that other electric cars don’t have. I really struggle with finding chargers and and when I do they don’t always work with a unified app. On a road trip to France I collected 5 different apps just to access various chargers. There were also several chargers that weren’t showing up on any apps. Definitely not a good feeling to pass a charge point when you’re on 4% because it didn’t show up on any navigation app.
Yeah I agree!! They have a really good network and system integration. In Portugal, they’re meant to open up their chargers to all the other apps but they’ve found a loophole for now to keep them exclusively for Tesla…
Videos on sentry mode, how would you view it from the phone or within the car.
You can see them both ways. From phone and once you’re in your vehicle.
Does this include the recorded videos?@@MarthaRojas-bs1jd
I was watching the video and after a while I "hey that's Portugal!!".
Also the Glovebox makes so much noise when closing. I'm considering buying this one or the Y. Or the Byd Seal, it drove one an damn I wasn't expecting it to be so good. Completely surprised.
Edit: 19:30 ive also noticed how soft the hood is. The X is a bit thougher, but the Y and 3 are way to soft
Thank you for watching - I’m releasing a video comparing the Y (2023 current model) and the 2024 Model 3 - so stay tuned. The 3’s hood actually felt a bit stiffer than the old Y
@@europeinatesla I have friends with both those cars, I'll considering waiting for the juniper Y update. However you win a sub today
@@joaooliveirarocha thank you! The juniper is gonna be amazing 😍
how does the car connect to the internet? does it use your phone's data? thanks!
Hi! There is cell network built into the car - you have to pay a monthly fee for "premium connectivity" which includes satellite maps, spotify, youtube, netflix access etc., but without paying, you are still able to use navigation (regular map view) but won't be able to use any of the multimedia (but as you mentioned, you can hotspot your phone and connect the car to your phone via Wi-Fi)
How do you unlock the car if you run without battery? nice video
You should always carry the key card in your wallet - so you’d use that as the backup.
Tomorrow i have my model 3. About the indicators. The right button is always in “top” doesn’t make sense to me. Wheels is turning anti-clockwise on z roundabout, if i need to exit and i press the “top”button, i indicate left and not right…
"top of steering wheel" - not absolute top (sky)...
Collecting my highland 2 weeks later and I'm worried about getting use of driving in the hold mode as Tesla removed the creep and roll mode in my region. Did I make the correct decision? 😄
Mine also doesn’t have roll and creep, I think it’s so much better - you’ll get used to it quickly - thereafter you’ll think cars that creep forward are weird 😂😂😂😂
@@europeinatesla Thanks. My concern is more on the force that pull back the car when I release the acceleration. Passengers behind will feel that the car is jerky and uncomfortable.🤣
@@Ensiferum25 oh yes - that definitely takes some time to get used to, I usually keep my foot lightly on the accelerator OR I just use autopilot :P
@@AllenHuangNet Thanks for the info. Question, as long as I release the acceleration when I’m on the road, the rear braking light will light up?
@@Ensiferum25 yes - as long as it's slowing down significantly - so it will determine whether the brake lights need to come up or not - but most of the time it does because the regen braking is significant.
Hello, question: i have my new model 3, same as in the video. My phone is connected (iphone) and i can use the app,… i can make phonecalls with my phone but on the screen i can’t scroll to my contacts. For example: i want to call my wife, i need to use my phone to chose her as a contact. When i make the call, the phone shows her name, i gave the tesla-app acces to my contacts, still no sync….
When you go to the phone app on the Tesla, is it all blank?
Just for reference on my iPhone Bluetooth settings for my Tesla model 3, I’ve selected:
Car Stereo as the Device Type and enabled Sync Contacts and checked all the groups: phone favourites, phone recent, all contacts.
Let me know if it works - if not, I’d suggest re-pairing your Bluetooth again
@@europeinatesla yes it is all blank. The car gecognize my contacts when they call me, but can’t scroll in the contacts. My bluethoot is on. Phone as key,… but i can’t select all the extra’s you tell me here…
Man, there's absolutely no better car than this.....a FACT! Just biding my time until I can afford it one day. After you drive a Tesla you realize there's only two types of cars out there: a Tesla, and NOT a Tesla!
PORTUGAL let´s go!!!
Just curious where your accent is from ? :)
I’m a Spotify user. If I buy a M3, I’m going to rebuild my music playlists from scratch within Tesla’s music app?
Hi Alex! Thank you for watching - no, as long as you log into your account, everything from your profile is loaded 🙏
I was under the understanding that Spotify was not available on Tesla’s app.@@europeinatesla
Spotify is pre-installed... Where are you based? I had it on my car already when I got it - in the US I used spotify on various models too.
10% of the time the indicators don't work?? Hmmmm. Also, what happens if you don't have thumbs?
Nice video, but choosing not to buy this car because of the lack of stalks is not nit-picking, it's a perfectly legit reason. Same with the horn. Stupid decisions by Telsa (for the customer at least). Aftermarket mods can't come fast enough :)
Nice video, one correction the indicator buttons on the M3 are physical buttons not touch sensitive, the X/S are the ones that are touch sensitive, you can tell when you push on the M3 buttons they have the movement and the click. Here's my video on using the rounadbouts in Australia if you are interested - czcams.com/video/ImraaTKKTGc/video.htmlsi=WoMK1eqHfk59nHH- this was only after owning the car for 2 days, it is VERY easy to adapt to the no-stalk indicators, I find them much better than stalks now.
Thank you for watching!
Ah it was the Cybertruck that are buttons. The M3H has a floating panel that moves but they aren’t physical buttons. The panel pushes in and there’s a haptic feedback (like the MacBook touchpad). There’s a button on the steering that is currently inactive - the one below the camera button. If you try press that, you’ll see what I mean, it doesn’t budge because there’s no haptic.
Thank you! I’ll check out your video. I’m not convinced that one is better than the other, it’s just different.
Don’t close the frunk by pushing on the Tesla logo. That’s exactly the spot which Tesla does not recommend. Use both hands slightly offset left and right under the logo
100% yeah, unfortunately I am holding the phone with the other hand... I did apply pressure with the base of my palm and fingers - the pressure is on either side of the logo

Just took delivery of this car. Why did it slam its brakes on multiple times on my first long journey? 70 to 40mph in an instant with nothing around me. Seriously dangerous!
That’s very strange! Was it on Autopilot? Or whilst you’re driving?
@@europeinatesla once when I just had the cruise control on (I had forgotton to activate autopilot), then twice with the autopilot engaged. I had a couple of messages en route saying the cameras were obscured so certain features were deactivated but if that’s the cause it’s a very vulnerable system
Phantom braking occurs when the adaptive cruise control is activated and the car unexpectedly slows dramatically due to imagined hazards in the roadway. Since 2021, 69 Tesla owners in San Diego County have submitted complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
As a Highland owner, I can say indicators on the wheel is a terrible design decision. It should be prohibited by law to roll out controls like this.
I don't understand why the Tesla is moving towards uncomfortable control. Who the hell is coming with that stupid ideas?
