Even bigger tip: Put the back windows down when packing in too, give much more space to work in. I do it when I load our Model 3 up for tip runs and makes it a lot easier to get bulky boxes in.
The updated Y, code named Juniper, won’t be ready in 2025 (for some reason) and is more than likely to still be the model 3 on stilts and with a hatchback. That said, I love the look of the new 3 so it stands to reason that I’ll love the look of the new Y.
I think that the smaller blue suitcase fits completely in that space under the trunk (at least I fitted one in my Model 3 and still had some space for the 22kw cable), then you could put the glossy blue one above and the trunk would close. Anyway, nice video. Model 3 has a lot more space than it looks from the outside.
Excellent! Can’t believe I missed that test! I kind of made up for it in my video about the frunk cooler bag and its potential use as a car bar, I think? 😁
Thanks so much - I am really impressed. For the cost, I genuinely think they are a bit of a bargain AND they keep getting better! I woke up to a software update yesterday and the display looks much better, the boot/trunk opens when I just stand near it for about 5/6 seconds without touching anything and a few more enhancements. It just keeps getting better!
Hi. I have measured it for you just now and, at its smallest point, the space under the trunk/boot is 30cm (12”) deep, 60cm (24”) wide and 38cm (15”) from front to back, so there’s quite a bit of room to play with. I briefly showed an image of it in the video, too.
If you take the front wheel off, I think any regular road bike would fit in. Alternatively, roof bars are available (and I’m reviewing over the coming months).

What T3 version it is? I heard there are extra subwoofers in LR and bit less space in rear boot.
Mine is the RWD so I have no subwoofers, sadly, but I do get extra storage space on both sides of the boot where they would live in a higher model. I came from a LR gen 1 into this and the sound was better in the old car, as there were more speakers, but it is nominal.
Thanks very much - I appreciate the feedback. I’ve just measured the largest case for you (the expanding two-tone green one shown in the video) and it is 65cm tall, 45cm wide and 31cm deep, including wheels and handles, etc. Hope that helps 👍🏼
I’m afraid not - we don’t own any! The dimensions of the trunk/boot are here, if that helps: tesladviser.com/tesla-model-3-trunk-dimensions-is-it-big-enough/
They’re medium. I’ve measured the largest case for you (the expanding two-tone green one shown in the video) and it is 65cm tall, 45cm wide and 31cm deep, including wheels and handles, etc. Hope that helps 👍🏼
Hi, no matter how much space there is inside, I still can't get either of my bicycles in it, the boot door is just too small, it should've been a hatchback :D

What about 3 kids in the back seat? 2 with booster seats - perhaps of a particularly slim type and 1 without any booster seat - probably sitting in the middle? Is the middle seat actually useful - or really just a space for the armrest to occupy? :D
I wouldn’t want to sit between two booster seats, I have to admit. To be honest. The only car I’ve owned which I would put a passenger through that experience was my Audi Q7, which had 3 full sized seats.
The public tend to agree, as the Model Y outsells the Model 3 and literally the only differences are a bit of height and the swap to hatchback. Model 3 is nicer to look at, though!
hang on ! what about all the other crap you need if you are camping with a tent that size !!!!! We go camping with a 6-man tent, and with all all the other stuff we need our Model Y is pretty full :) (2+1 family)
Must admit, we often filled a roof box too, when we used to camp using a BMW 5 series and the tent in the video. I’m not saying it’ll be easy in the model 3 but us campers find a way! 😁
Not sure. Used a GoPro this time and the sun was pretty bright. I’ll probably go back to either my phone or my DSLR for the next one. Also, I’ll make sure I bring a muffler for the mic to combat the wind! Live and learn.
Practical - no, but they look great and bring so much more light into the cabin that Amy previous black seats. They do have a hatchback - it's called the Model Y!
Model 3 has a short range, then long time at the superchargers. Not practical for a road trip. Camry Hybrid gets 1014 km on a tank of petrol, then 5 minutes to refill the tank. Tesla cannot compare to that! Camry also has better build quality, nicer interior, and a full dashboard. And a Turn Signal Stalk .
Thanks for your comment, but it’s not so transparent. Undeniably, a model 3 won’t get the singular range of a hybrid with a big tank but superchargers aren’t slow and, for safety and wellbeing, you still need to take breaks every couple of hundred miles. The difference is that an EV driver can park up, go to the toilet and buy a sandwich WHILE their car is ‘refuelling’. When you do need fuel, which is undeniably less often, you need to stand by your car while doing it and THEN park up. Your car’s hybrid facility takes up room to accommodate a battery and small motor, costing you boot/trunk space - 70 litres less than a model 3, excluding the under boot storage and frunk. Not as practical for a road trip. As for build quality, I couldn’t argue with you on the earlier Tesla’s, but this new one is a different story. It’s certainly no worse than a mass produced car like a Toyota. Oh, and I know it’s subjective, but I’d choose the minimalist Tesla interior over the slightly cluttered mass of plastic that you find in a Toyota interior. However, that point is just a matter of preference, so I take on board you might not agree and that is why it’s great that we’re lucky enough to have choices. Thanks for watching.
@@PaulsViewsReviews The hybrid doesn't have a big gas tank, it gets 52 miles/gallon. That is where the long range comes from. Superchargers are much slower than a petrol station: 30 minutes versus 5 minutes! And if you take too long buying food and going to the bathroom, other Tesla owners will be mad at you if you take too much time at the Supercharger. The hybrid owner will NEVER have that problem. You did not mention the Turn Signal Stalk, which has been removed from the Model 3. For many people, this is a *serious* *problem* . A deal breaker.
@@DerekDavis213 hi again. Superchargers take 15 minutes to add 200 miles - perfect for a toilet break. Fair point about taking too long but I’ve never had that problem so can’t speak intelligently about it. And I’ve gotten quite used to the no stalk bit - took a little adjustment but not a problem.
@@PaulsViewsReviews _Superchargers take 15 minutes to add 200 miles_ That is totally *not* *true* , in California. I have witnessed the Supercharger myself. If many cars are charging at once, the charging speed will be reduced. Audi, BMW, Mercedes, and Rolls-Royce all have Turn Signal Stalks. The customers would not have it any other way.
@@DerekDavis213 it’s 15 minutes in the UK - can’t speak for California. The brand versus stalk point is a bit mute. Preference is, by definition, personal.
Honestly, I’ve gotten used to it really quickly. In fact, when I drive my wife’s Audi now, I look for buttons rather than a stalk. It’s just a habit change.
@PaulsViewsReviews How do you do in a roundabout when the steering wheel is upside down? Or when doing a maneuver right before indicating? You gotta straighten out the wheel before indicating. It's so stupid I can't believe it.
@@norbertmayer7005 I'm also curious about how this works in a roundabout.. Btw I don't completely understand what you mean with "doing a maneuver right before indicating". Don't you indicate first, and then maneuver? I'm probably missing something here though =)
@mansnilsson3384 For instance, indicating while negotiating a bend. In some places, especially in Europe, you may encounter tight turns where you need to activate your turn signal while the steering wheel is upside down.
@@norbertmayer7005 Ah, I see what you mean. Thanks for clarifying! It sounds like when I try to use the media buttons on the steering wheel (e.g. go to previous/next song), while doing a tight turn. It usually leads to me waiting until I'm done with my turn.. =) That would be problematic with the blinkers. I need to go for a test drive with a Tesla to experience this.

Wow packing the boot with the seats down for a better entrance: genius 😁 Thanks!

Yes, that is a brilliant idea.
Even bigger tip:

Yet again great review and that shows the boot is definitely big enough. Model 3 here I come 👍🏻
Thanks for posting that
My pleasure! It will serve you well, I’m confident!
I love your energy! Keep up the great work and content you provide us 🙏
Thank you! Will do!
Very nice review and great to see a RUclipsr respond to so many comments.
Very kind, thank you. I like engaging and helping wherever I can!
And you’ve got the frunk for more luggage
I know! Can’t believe I didn’t mention it!
Probably got your cables in there...
I do indeed! And about a million carrier bags for when we go shopping.
@@PaulsViewsReviewsdon't mention the fruit, I mentioned it once but I think that I got away with it alright.
I usually have cables, an emergency charger AND all our shoes and drinks etc. The frunk is very decent in size
Great review. I've just got mine. I can get 2 boosters and a seat in the back for the kids as well. Frunk has already proven a useful space as well
Excellent! I wish I’d been able to borrow more baby bits to test the space - my kids are all grown up now so they’re not much use! 😉
Good review! I was looking for this to make a choice between the better looking 3 and the Y!
Glad I could help!
There's a new Y coming as well. and since they redesigned the 3 to be like a mini S, one would expect the new Y to be like a mini X.
The updated Y, code named Juniper, won’t be ready in 2025 (for some reason) and is more than likely to still be the model 3 on stilts and with a hatchback. That said, I love the look of the new 3 so it stands to reason that I’ll love the look of the new Y.

Completely agree - it does. Thanks for inputting.
The model 3 is a decevingly big car inside we have done many trips as a family of 4 and it works great!
I’ve never had a problem with mine - it’s the perfect sized family car!
Great video. I always count in beer crates and if you want to know, 6 of them fit in there. I had one to test and that was the first thing I tried 😅
Excellent! Can’t believe I missed that test! I kind of made up for it in my video about the frunk cooler bag and its potential use as a car bar, I think? 😁
It definitely is a OK car for 2+1 fam. Thanks!
It sure is!
the frunk can handle a big duffle or small roller
Without a doubt - I should have mentioned it!
Great video - these cars are so good!
Thanks so much - I am really impressed. For the cost, I genuinely think they are a bit of a bargain AND they keep getting better!

Would have loved to see how deep the sub trunk is in the boot!
Hi. I have measured it for you just now and, at its smallest point, the space under the trunk/boot is 30cm (12”) deep, 60cm (24”) wide and 38cm (15”) from front to back, so there’s quite a bit of room to play with. I briefly showed an image of it in the video, too.
What is the max load of this car? There might be space but it can become more than allowed load.
Pretty high - it's all available here: www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/model3/en_us/GUID-877ACE2D-B62F-4596-A6AD-A74F7905741C.html
After taking the front wheels of 2 bicycles, I can easily fit both into the back of a Prius. Won't work w/ Model 3, but will w/ Model Y.
Always good to get advice from other users - hope this helps any viewers.
Very nice and useful video ♥♥
Very kind, thank you.
Will my bike fit in the Model 3?
If you take the front wheel off, I think any regular road bike would fit in. Alternatively, roof bars are available (and I’m reviewing over the coming months).
What T3 version it is? I heard there are extra subwoofers in LR and bit less space in rear boot.
Mine is the RWD so I have no subwoofers, sadly, but I do get extra storage space on both sides of the boot where they would live in a higher model. I came from a LR gen 1 into this and the sound was better in the old car, as there were more speakers, but it is nominal.
In Canada, the measure of the “boot” would be whether you could fit your ice hockey bag. Also, would it fit a goalie bag, or just a regular bag?
My son used to play roller hockey and so I’m familiar with the bags - They are pretty significant!
Great review, thanks. Could you tell me please what is the exact size of the medium suitcases?
Thanks very much - I appreciate the feedback.
I’ve just measured the largest case for you (the expanding two-tone green one shown in the video) and it is 65cm tall, 45cm wide and 31cm deep, including wheels and handles, etc. Hope that helps 👍🏼
Thanks :)
Can you make another video with 3 full size luggage bags instead of the mid size? Thank you!
I’m afraid not - we don’t own any! The dimensions of the trunk/boot are here, if that helps: tesladviser.com/tesla-model-3-trunk-dimensions-is-it-big-enough/
Could you tell what the size of suitcases you used? There are small, medium and full
They’re medium. I’ve measured the largest case for you (the expanding two-tone green one shown in the video) and it is 65cm tall, 45cm wide and 31cm deep, including wheels and handles, etc. Hope that helps 👍🏼
Hi, no matter how much space there is inside, I still can't get either of my bicycles in it, the boot door is just too small, it should've been a hatchback :D
I’d agree, but I guess Tesla would just say just buy a Model Y. The layout and shape of the S at 3 prices would be awesome!
Rough dimendions of mefium sized luggage? Thanks!

Those travel bags are the bigger our the medium ?
They’re the medium size case. The dimensions are in the comments somewhere.
Is the trunk size same on the older model 3?
I believe it is exactly the same, with the exception of a small extra storage area on the right side in the new version.
Would be much better if it was a hatchback instead of a saloon - the rear opening ain't that big
The public tend to agree, as the Model Y outsells the Model 3 and literally the only differences are a bit of height and the swap to hatchback.
Model 3 is nicer to look at, though!
Own less stuff, less problems to move it about.
That is, indeed, one solution.
Can you fit an e-bike in the back with the seats folded down,? as I can in my golf 3 door.
I would definitely say yes - we have a Golf and the Tesla is wider, longer and the height should be adequate.

I know! School boy error!
@@PaulsViewsReviews I bet you can probably fit that carry on in the frunk!
@@johnnyvvlog do you know, I bet I could.
@@PaulsViewsReviews I will be able to test it next week when mine gets delivered :)
@@johnnyvvlog awesome! It’s such a great car - no doubts that you’ll love it!
what's a boot?
Americans would call it a trunk.
Still sticking with our diesel SUV.
The beauty of choice! I used to love my diesel SUVs, from the X-Trail to Q7, but I’m happy with the move.
Yea. The asking price can be painful.
Frunk!
I know! Can’t believe I forgot to mention it! Schoolboy error 🫢
Great point about loading it through the doors with the rear seats down
It’s an easy solution that some may not think of. Thanks for watching.
Bikes
There’s definitely room.
If this still isn't enough you can use a roof box
Very true! Roof bars are a bit expensive for the Tesla, but it is an option.
Why is the video color so washed out
Not sure. Used a GoPro this time and the sun was pretty bright. I’ll probably go back to either my phone or my DSLR for the next one. Also, I’ll make sure I bring a muffler for the mic to combat the wind! Live and learn.
White seats = not practical!
I just wish they had a hatchback too.
Practical - no, but they look great and bring so much more light into the cabin that Amy previous black seats. They do have a hatchback - it's called the Model Y!
@@PaulsViewsReviews True!
I don’t think I’m alone, but the model y is butt ugly. Only certain colours make it acceptable. Is too big either way.
I think it isn't too pretty, but the facelifted version should be much improved.
