Having someone gush about the removal of stalks doesn't make the absence of the indicator stalk any better. This is a pure cost-cutting measure and a UI disaster. To push this as "amazing UI" is laughable.

there's a feature to have it turn off when you are parked in your garage.. i keep mine on 24/7 and have it turned off in my house because the only other person that can hit my car at my house is my wife lol. But seriously it doesnt use that much power.. youre at work for 8 hours and thats only 8 miles of range to protect you from thousands if something were to happen..

To me, the dominating factor is not the power draw, it's more the extreme sensitivity. If I park on the street in Denmark I will often get about 1 clip per 2 minutes, mostly from pedestrians just walking within a feet past the car. That wouldn't be a problem if it was very quick to both review and delete the clips, but for me it's often been very slow, buggy and laggy. And I have a friend who was hit by small debris from a semi and Tesla's camera resolution just wasn't good enough, and it doesn't provide timestamps or travel speed on the video either. So even though Sentry Mode was a great unexpected addition to the car, it's still lacking compared to a 3rd party dashcam - on top of the power draw.

I was fortunate enough to drive one a week ago, and have a 2022 Model 3 for comparison. Extremely delighted to see the ride quality improvements. It would take me a while to learn to use the new directional signals, or no stalks on the steering column. The front end redesign with headlights looks great!

You need to add auto indicators/blinkers on roundabouts when navigating. It is awkward/dangerous to indicate roundabout exits manually on the wheel.

That's why I didn't buy the new model 3. Too many roundabouts everywhere here in Norway, and those buttons on the wheel became very cumbersome and distracting to use after a short while. It's only a good idea in the US and other places where they use intersections instead.

Did a test drive yesterday and was indeed blown away, absoletly want one. No stalk for turn lights is outright dangerous in a country with mostly roundabouts like Norway making them unsuitable for driving lessons and it is confirmed to get a reduced security score because of it. Not a dealbraker, but in reality it will just result in me not using turn lights in situations where I should. Tesla vision also seems to have a lot of improvement potential and downsides to sensors. Overall the price, drive and ease of use puts it ahead of it's competitors for me, but still on the fence financially.

Awesome how they explain all those design and engineering features. No other companies do it in such an interesting and informal manner. In addition great advice / guidance for BMW, Audi, Mercedes 😅.
Did a test drive on the new model 3 last week. I think the main thing missing is definitely a heads up display, it would make the life so much easier for the driver to easily see the speed while driving. All the rest is spot on!

Instead of a screen placed in an inconvenient position in the rear, how about adding a binnacle in front of the steering wheel. Head Up Display would be a bonus, but so would physical buttons and stalks. Tesla has gone too far with the minimalist interface.

Missing are enhanced suspension, quieter sound quality etc

@@Garrison169 Yeah, they keep saying they're going to merge the FSD code base to the auto-steer and adaptive cruise to solve this but apparently it's on Elon time.

Fascinating insight into the updated Model 3 from the guys that created it. I drive a BMW 128ti. A great car that I have enjoyed driving for three years. I tested the updated Model 3 in February. To be honest, I was shocked. My BMW felt slow, dull, uncomfortable and noisy as hell when I got back in it. The only thing it matched the Tesla on was interior build. And to even be saying that the BMW matched the Tesla is insane. And I only drove the RWD, not the dual motor. Anyway, I take delivery of my first EV, and first Tesla, next month. Model 3 RWD in blue metallic. The only thing that annoys me is how much more we pay for Teslas in the UK than in the US. My Tesla is costing $52k including sales tax.
