It is worth mentioning that the car tested in this video (SR+ with Panasonic NCA) was only delivered to Europe in Q1/2021. From Q2/2021 all SR+ come from China and have a CATL LFP battery with similar 55kWh of capacity. The LFP battery actually charges faster and looses almost no power with lower state of charge. It is 120kg heavier though! Also worth mentioning that from Q2 the SR+ got optional heated steering wheel and from Q3 a more efficient rear motor. All in all the best value for money in the Tesla lineup 🙂
Not to mention that the LFP batteries can be charged all the way up to 100% and are actually designed to be charged up to 100% at every charge. Meaning, there’s no more having to charge your battery up to 80-90% at night in fear of your battery quickly degrading over time, you can always charge it to 100% and get full use out of it unlike older models!
@@2SEXY Well, since this is an EU car... We don't have the motor designators 980/990. They are called the old Performance Motor is called 3D1 and the new replacement with hairpin windings is called 3D6. The old base motor is called 3D5 and it's new hairpin replacement is called 3D7. Since the car in this video has the NCA pack it has the 3D5 Motor, which is the old 208KW LR rear motor. The SR+ with LFP packs all have the 3D1 performance motor with 239KW and since Q3/2021 we also see the new 3D6 motor in the EU SR LFP cars.
What are you waiting for? The new M3LR wIth the 82 kw pack is the bomb! Had mine for 2 months , and it’s almost perfect. Best car I’ve owned in 45 years. :)
Thanks for a good review. I really disagree about autopilot. I like it so much so there is not an alternative to by anything else than a tesla next year when our lease ends on our TM3 LR.
@@_TrueDesire_ maybe you need to do some more research on what is included. You need to spec it up to the Elite to get the internal features such as heat seats, wireless charging. Then there is the issue with no software updates
@@koruki i already checked, 77 kWh RWD and then i get the "advance" pack, moveable rear seats including reclining front seats, selection of either panoramic or solar roof. in other words, everything.
@@_TrueDesire_ thats great, seems sweden gets a better deal than us, here the SR+ cost $66k NZD, comes full speced, the EV6 is $85k, then you need to get the $96k version to get the same interior features, the M3 LR here is $85k..

Also mention, now the motor is 980 instead of 990 🙂

This is because they are the best electric car on the market
Amazing progress by Tesla. Our 2013 Model S has similar range to this new base Model 3.
4 years and im still looking at reviews

@@GM-qh2ki i ended up with 2 sr+ instead of 1 performance. :(. The joy of being married
Greatest value vehicle on the planet. Model 3 is so amazing you have no idea if you've never driven one
Nice car. I want this!
Standard Plus is lighter, rear wheel drive. Fun to push it’s limits or just relax in Chill mode
This is the one i've ordered, except black interior.
lol if you don't trust the app/card key angle then there's a LOT more to worry about with this car. Speaking as a M3LR owner.
It's the best review yet I think
Waiting for mine to arrive.... can't wait! Should be August or September.
Do you know any better system then autopilot?
Our China one has no panel gap problems …..and rugged LFP battery.
I ordered the key fob. Waste of money the phone works great
Thanks for a good review.

In the UK, the red multi-coat colour is £2,100 !!!!!
in Sweden it's 24K SEK / £2000 🙈 but the car also starts at 550K SEK/ £46,000.
@@_TrueDesire_ In Norway, the red multicoat is 18500 NOK. And the SR+ starts at 349990 NOK. Why is it so much more expensive in Sweden?
rather have EV6/Ioniq 5 👍🏻
Over priced and less specs
@@koruki they cost the same with 77 kWh battery as Model 3 SR+ in Sweden.
