ok great thanks
ok thanks! I’ll never be able to get tho lol
No stalks is a great example of a solution without a problem.
Probably was a problem to them, cost wise
@@adrianac142but they added a 2nd screen for passengers in the back…
@@friedpicklezzz I know, but maybe installing that screen is easier in the manufacturing process than adding stalks.
It´s the only reason that makes sense to me.
@@adrianac142 the model S and X also are going stalkless. These are $95-110K vehicles with air suspension and what have you. I think the cost of adding a stalk, a device and manufacturing process that was refined for decades in several brands, is negligible. I think it’s rather a design vision; a vision of autonomous driving, and striving for minimalism.
They are an American company and in their attempt for minimalism didn’t realize a country like the Netherlands (213 times smaller than the US) has 6000 roundabouts, only 1000 less than the USA. They designed it with an American lens, which is clearly a mistake.
In doing so they’ve sacrificed usability and safety for a cleaner dashboard. Ironically their screen is getting more and more crowded with buttons. So it depends on what constitutes minimalism 🤷🏻♂️
You’ll get used to it. Its the future.
The best part of the new model is that rear screen! That’s a game changer for me with kids just like the old days when you had a mini van with the screen in the back to keep them distracted from asking are we there yet
Took my wife to test drive it this weekend....she is oblivious to anything in cars...including the brand. Thought she would freak out not having stalks but she absolutely LOVED this car and found it very easy to drive...so we bought one....so i can get my old S back from her !
I had a test drive this weekend, and I don't regret ordering the new model 3 at all! It's really a dream, especially when coming from a diesel car. Expected delivery in just one month 😍
That’s great! You’re going to love it
How are y’all ordering them

I think they’ve done a good job of bringing this up to the Y with some added things, ventilation and rear screen
We love your short-form videos, but it looks like your long ones are even better. Great review!
There were times when cars had manual and automatic shifters in the streeting Column. I ran away from models with manual shifters; but automatic models provided great front passenger room with bench seat in the front capable of seating three!
Im waiting for the performance model.. I would buy that thing instantly 😍
I want it so bad
Plaid motors would be epic for the model 3
@@LeoCarReviewsnew model will be the model 3 ludicrous, dual motor. No plaid
@@LeoCarReviews plaid motors in the 3 (dual not triple) wouldn't beat a model s plaid
Really good video! Love how in depth it was. Learned something new for the first time in a while! Love that the car goes into park when undoing the seatbelt.
FYI: I put down the order for the RWD within the first hour of it becoming available for sale.
Delivery for it keeps getting pushed back. Since early October it has said 2-6 weeks.. That then changed to 7-14th of November. That has now changed to 13-27th of November.
Thanks for being so detailed and to the point!
You know you can get a discounted model ordered directly from tesla with less than 4k down payment and a total no more than 20 grand with a ref code.
It's important to also highlight that model 3s made in China have always been built with better quality and are quieter on the road, compared to the US built model 3. Basing your conclusions on own experience with US model 3s is not really an accurate comparison.
I miss the old fog lights though, I love the look of them
Picked up my Tesla model 3 Highland yesterday in Tilburg NL and it's a realy nice car to drive in. Silent like you are in a library doing 100 kmph. And for a standard range it is very quick in accelaration. Love it! ❤
How do you manage using the turn signals in Dutch roundabouts?
It truly is dot quick at all. It has an annoying delay once you press the pedal.
@@danielstoicamusicNot 😅. Smaller roundabouts are terrible. The bigger ones are ok.
@@whynotstartusingyourbrain8726I came from a VW Polo so driving this new Tesla feels much faster
@@SgtP1979 good. But those who come from an old model 3 will feel disappointed.
Thank you for making this video I was waiting for it to drop. As soon as the Highland performance comes out in Phoenix Arizona I'm getting it. The wait is hard , if it wasn't for this refresh I would have already gotten a performance M3. I'm going to get the grey / dark interior
The wait will be VERY worth it!!
The performance Model 3 Highland is not even out anywhere yet so you might be waiting quite a while!
@@Rodekuhrto your knowledge. I bet employees have them
Great review, but I wish you would have reviewed the updated sound system!
The biggest problem with Tesla right now is that they keep making changes that are built on a bad foundation. The removal of stalks is just one recent example: both the automatic gear selection and turn signal cancellation are both maybe 50-80% reliable (anything under 100% should not be acceptable). I turned off the auto signal cancel because it would constantly fight me when I have my turn signal on in a turn lane, for example. The Tesla experience over the last 3 years has largely been one of mounting frustration as more and more decisions are made without regard to the user experience and instead for the sake of novelty and pushing the appearance of advancement.
Removal of stalks would be fine if the features that exist to reduce friction as a result of the change actually worked with even some degree of reliability. Similarly, autowipers based on vision only are what, 7 years old now? And they're still truly one of the most frustrating pieces of software I've interacted with in my life. The removal of USS is what, a year and change in, and vision is still nothing close to a reliable replacement for USS.
This here!
I’ve driven S and X for years but seeing videos of the new stalkless cars being driven in Europe made me decide to switch brands next year. Just not sure which one.
It’s simply unsafe to exit a roundabout - one of many every trip - with my steering wheel turned 90-180 degrees and me having to find the indicator buttons. How on Earth didn’t they catch that?!
with aftermarket parts last gen m3 could atleast be made liveable. Cant really fix lack of a stalk or the cheap crappy one unit accelerator pedal for that matter but what can you do idiots gona idiot
You can turn the functionality of auto indicators off and just have it set to either 3x indicate or full stalk down for an indicate until exit
the ambient light nn cooled seats sold me.😂
hi Brandon, another good M3 review video here again. thanks so much.
Do you think its worth spending the extra 10K for the long range trim? I am from Boston and the weather here is like in Colorado where you live and i am thinking the RWD instead of the Long range but wasn't sure the RWD is good for state like MASS. thanks
You should try to find a Model 3 Mid Range and LR RWD so you’ll be able to declare you’ve driven pretty much all of them. I’ve actually driven the Model 3 Mid Range. It’s really just a first-gen long range RWD with less battery cells (same configuration style, just less cells)
I like this. This and the Y are really good for the price. I just am not a big fan of the S and X due to the lack of premium materials and comfort...and would rather take a lucid since they are switching to nacs.
The electric Porsche is better that the lucid.
As far as performance goes yes but the range is limited.@@bxi1547
After seeing this review, I'm less convinced by the new Tesla model 3. I don't like what they have done to the logo? Any car I owned, had the logo on the steerring wheel.
And I kinda get the feeling, that this is more of a car to simply cruise on the highway? With my Nissan Leaf, I can actively switch between D and B mode, which gives more pleasure to the driving.
With Tesla, you do this with touch: so if it has a B mode? Then I don't think, it would be fun to having to activate it through the touchscreen? Also the missing stalks, are going be a major issue in Europe!
I hope Tesla brings those back: not indicating on a roundabout, can get you tracfic tickets. As mentioned, in the states no issue? But here in Europe, a very big issue. I wouldn't be surprised, seeing many new Tesla's involved in accidents. Because they didn't indicate?
I like the Nissan Arriya more btw: unlike Tesla, they don't remove all the features which cars had for years. And replace it with a single touchscreen. Although I really would have to test drive a Tesla sometime?
Just that I had the experience, dealing with touchscreens during driving can be a pain in the @#ss. Also it's distracting, that's why I like buttons. They are easy to control.
I liked the wood. I liked when people added more wood to the center console. Now it is too vanilla, except for the accent light
The Highland looks nice but once I saw no stalks and really not that huge of a difference from the current model 3 I jumped on an inventory vehicle with an almost $5k discount with no regrets!
There will be a new TV episode of American Ninja Warrior where they will compete in pressing turn signal buttons.
I also bought an inventory Model 3 in September with a €4000 discount when I saw Elon had decided to get rid of the stalks.
Are you able to charge your iPhone on the new wireless pad with a case on it? I have a 14 Pro Max and I’m unable to charge it in a case on the current Model 3 charging pad. I have to turn it upside down and it sort of works, but it’s very slow. Thanks!
How tall are you? I noticed the way you entered the car. Is it easy to get in, or you have to cramp your back? Also, given the heightened floor, his comfy is it for long journeys?
Coming from a 2015 scion Tc I can’t wait to see the used market value on “older” models in 2024/2025 with the used ev tax credit. Being able to get a 4 year old model 3 for essentially 50%+ off beats any of these updates imo. I’d take a used 2021 model 3 LR/Performance over a 2024 standard range tbh. Much more fun and will be 1/2 the cost in a few months - year.

With the tax credit you can get a brand new model 3 for 30k
Good work mate & nice to have you here in Germany 🎉 PS you also have viewers on Germany so I am happy to assist if you need guidance in Europe. 😅
Next time in Europe I’ll reach out!
Do the back seats fold down to extend storage?
They improved it just in time for me,thank,s Tesla.
Help! How do I turn off regenerate breaks? I cant find it anywhere in tesla model 3 2024
I just got a loaner M3 from 2018 with 98,400 Km on it. What an amazing car. Now, this must be a really great upgrade as many say Tesla has improved all that customers asked for.
5:15 that Tesla looks so good that guy couldn’t stop staring😭
Is the screen bigger on the highland?
I'll stick to my 2022 model y with the ultra sensors for now probably for a long time The lighting I just add that it's like a club at night time in my car
Is it possible to adjust the headrest of the middle seat in rear?
Aww man I just got my model 3 last month! I wish I wouldve done more research I would've waited to buy it. Oh well I still love my model 3 and hopefully I can get a good trade in value on it once this one comes out.
Great video. Glad I held out and can now get the upgraded one. Cannot wait.
Ok the napkins in the car is so relatable tho 😆
How will you unplug it when it's done?
Did that blue type 2 cable came included? I'm on the fence about buying one but I want to know what you get from tesla to charge at home or on public spots.
You know you can get a discounted model ordered directly from tesla with less than 4k down payment and a total no more than 20 grand with a ref code.
How do you flash the lane change signal light (3 flashes vs the full signal light)? Nice video. I loved the Model Y I rented at Hertz in Arizona recently but I will look at this one when it comes to Canada.
When you press the signal to change lanes it will automatically disable it once you’re in the new lane. If you’re turning it will use the right turn arrows in the road to determine if it needs to keep the signals on
regarding the glare of the new rgb light on the dash - I've seen some photos online that show it reflecting in sunlight. I wonder if it will ever become an issue
Thanks - nice review. I love the idea of all the improvements but for me, here in NZ, I'm not going to upgrade due to indicator stalk removal. I will wait to see what Sexy buttons offering is like and hopefully Tesla will offer an indicator stalk option. I'm guessing highland is going to be a very popular upgrade in the USA where you don't have roundabouts, and lots of freeway driving!
You don't have to wait. Sexy buttons can already be used as indicators. Just stick them behind your steering wheel where the hands are positioned.
@@whynotstartusingyourbrain8726Good to know, although it feels that relying on some slippery Bluetooth buttons to hack your way out of a huge design flaw on a $50K car is the wrong thing to do.
Most reviews I've seen from people who have actually driven this car on roundabouts is that it's fine.
Removing the stalks is too far. Like you said, in Europe we have a lot of round abouts. Hitting that switch as you're on a roundabout, with the wheel upside down isn't a good idea.
A Dutch license plate never thought that a English RUclipsr would review a Dutch car cuz I guessed it probably would be German or something
I've worked at Giga Texas and a service center. I was at the cyber rodeo. Good video I gave a thumbs up
great review
This might be a stupid question, but I am hoping for a more elaborate response, so here it goes: how do you determine if SR is good enough for you or you should get the LR?
How often do you drive over 250 miles in one day? If not often, standard would do the job for a long time. Always can get a longer range in a few years if needs change.
You know you can get a discounted model ordered directly from tesla with less than 4k down payment and a total no more than 20 grand with a ref code.
It really depends on how much is your daily commute, how many longer trips you do and what are your charging abilities at home.
For example, my daily commute is around 50miles (around 20% of SR battery) and I can just plug the car up for charge in the garage every day when I get home. From this perspective, a car with half the battery of the SR would still be enough for me. However, we like road trips at weekends (max 2 hours or 100miles away from home, No big distances in Europe...) and the SR is still perfect for that.
We do bigger distance maybe once or twice a year and then we can use Tesla superchargers on the way which are very fast and mostly reliable (again, in Europe).
I would only get LR if I would do 250+ miles trips weekly or if I couldn't charge the car at home.
Hope that helps 😊
I'm gonna miss the wood. I specifically bought the black interior with the wood since I really think it makes the car look more premium.
Elephant in the room, Everyone is complaining that the RGB lights don't have a brightness slider and they are only bright when your in the color selection section picking a color and once you back out they brightness goes down. Actually when you go into your "Main Screen" Brightness Slider the RGB strips adjust up or down based on how bright your main screen is ...
Your Welcome
I’m debating between this and Toyota Venza.. the only 2 options we are offered for a company car..
Never had electric and sometimes I drive 250 miles a day easy
I loved my M3 Performance but it was recently in a accident and is likely totaled. Im waiting on tesla insurance to get back to me. I pray this one is released soon.
Nice to see you in my hometown 😊
Great review, thanks you.
Are you sure it has Hardware 4?
I have seen many articles online say it is still Hardware 3.

I love you Brandon! And your videos too!!!! ❤️
will the new highland wont able to charge in deep freeze chicago?
Great review Thank you. I am really thinking about a model 3 rwd. However I do believe that the big decision has a lot to do with the ventilated seats. I live in a hot climate and I think that it would be really cool to have air conditioned seats. Does anyone know the range on the rwd highland?
in the UK the RWD is around 280-300 miles or 320-340 if you drive very carefully but I don't know what country you're from
Range is about the same as the previous gen from what we found
@@TeslaFlex Thank you, I figured as much. From the limited research that I could do it seems that the battery (LFP) is the same. Built the same with the same performance. I don't see how there could be a huge improvement in range and speed. Thank you again for confirming my suspicions.
Last week I've got my new Model 3. Funny to see how my license plate only differs 1 digit haha
It looks clean
Do we know if the Long range will have/has acceleration boost?

Great review! Subscribed!
I love the new highland model 3 and I already saw like 3 highlands like last week
Now that we are in the 2024 year, do you think we would get the refreshed model 3 or the current Model 3 if I place my order today)? I am thinking to pull the trigger of the Performance but i am not sure whether we would get the refreshed (highland) version or the current version of the M3. thanks Alot
Ordered on Jan 7th and they automatically upgraded to the new version after a week! It’s only the new version now on the website
Do the back windows on the highland roll down all the way??
No
hows the improvement on the cars speakers compared to the old model 3

Nicely done ✅
I would definitely trade my 2023 model Y to this one. My model Y is shit. I drive around LA to Santa Monica a lot road imperfections, but shit the whole car rattles every go through those road imperfections, car rattles and the sound inside my cabin ot feels like cheap old car. I took it to the service center twice already, they said that how the model Y drives. Do you guys experiencing the same thing? I’m coming from 2 model 3’s 2020 and 2022. What would you recommend, Brandon? Thanks!
I love this video!
You are so right. I have a 2022 model 3, the car is incredibly uncomfortable.
That's a smart idea I like that now it's kind of hard to choose between the first model and a new model get the first model and then get the new model later.
Would of loved to wait for a the new model but just purchased the 2023 model 3 for 37k, it was a no brainer at that price.
You can’t beat that price! I hope you’re enjoying it so far!
How do you turn on autopilot on new 2024 model 3?
can’t decide on getting the model y SR or wait for the model 3 2024 SR.. what are your thoughts?
Model y won’t be getting an update for a while. If you want the most future proof Tesla, the 3 is the one to get
I do wish there was a display screen above front of the starring wheel.
May I ask how tall you are, could use that as an example for headroom
I have one very important question. How are we supposed to get mods to correct for the lack of a turn signal?. In last gen model 3 you can correct for most of the car’s short comings with aftermarket hud, sexy buttons, roof liner etc how can you create a whole new stalk?? imo this iteration of m3 is cursed to much to fail
Thank heavens! The model 3 needed a rear latch and now it gets one!
Model Y interior will be EXACTLY the same. They won’t be adding any more features compared to Highland. If they did it will only be retractable sun shade because Y doesn’t have crossbar in ceiling
They finally made it so you can put the tow hook in the rear bumper as well
You are good to highlight the difference between the US and European roads, with regards to indicating. Australia, NZ, Asia are all similar to Europe. Personally I resent the fact that I would have to pay even more money for aftermarket stalks, not to mention the warranty and reliability issues that potentially arise.

Why don’t try the vision only parking sensing? Why no one try it?
Great review man! Thx a lot.
You know you can get a discounted model ordered directly from tesla with less than 4k down payment and a total no more than 20 grand with a ref code.
Instead of removing turn and wiper stocks should of added instrument cluster or at least heads up display.
Also, not all Model Y cars have the rear releases. I believe the Giga Texas ones in general don’t.
Nice!
By far the best video review thanks man ! Do you have any idea or guess about the model 3 highland price in the US?
no price hike
Did they enhance the charging time? Does the charger charge faster or not really?
Not sure if standard range is any different but when I get my long range I will test along with out of spec
Cool. Long distance capability is acceptable, but the ability to charge from 20-80% in just 5 minutes will be a game changer.@@TeslaFlex
How much does it cost
Mostly the only thing that I don’t like about the 2024 Tesla model three Highland is that on the steering wheel it doesn’t have the Stocks i’d rather have stocks than buttons
29:38 you’re going to ‘add stalks’? Is that an option?
No, it’s an aftermarket modification from enhance auto. The stalks are currently in development
Mans getting poured on and doesn’t give one f he will continue this in depth review
Waiting for Tesla to update Model X and S with the same steering wheel and interior, looks great.
It’s a little too minimalistic for me. I wish it had a screen for the mph and rpm and a shifter for drive and reverse.
Was that a 918 Spyder at 24:30??
How tall are you?
I getting my model 3 in 4 weeks in the new red colour.
Price?
