the interior is good too. i would compare it to a mercedes CLA. there's room for refinement, its not audi level, but its not bad by any means.


I'm surprised at this take because when I sat in a Model 3 the interior felt cheap. As in, my cheap-driving-appliance-Toyota interior had a better aesthetic. Beyond that, it was lacking the sort of style I'd expect in an expensive car.

bear in mind that most entry-level luxury cars have been cutting corners when it comes to interior design for a while, so it's not surprising that a low-end mercedes feels equally as cheap as a tesla

a low end mercedes costs a good 35%-40% less than the lowest end tesla you can purchase and actually receive tho

JFC. yes, a Model 3 has a turn signal stalk. if you press the button on the end of it the wipers operate, too.

my non lovely car does this if I don't signal my lane change because it assumes I am drifting.

is your friend a California piece of poo poo who doesn't signal their lane changes?

i dont live in cali but enough people where i live do YOLO lane changes that my brain has somehow learned a bunch of the precursor movements that drivers make before doing it. it's to the point where i can be actively evaluating some other thing and some part of my brain interrupts with a "whoa there buddy we may have a slidey steve at 10 o'clock over here"

I would like to see a Tesla try to handle Miami morning traffic on 95 south or rush hour 95N

I'd also enjoy seeing Tesla on the Houston 69 or 610

The constant hellscape construction around Dallas and it's service road/highway on off ramps would be lol as well.

i'm pointing out that it's loving lollerskates that the car with rain sensors that don't work requires you to use the loving ipad to set the wiper speed because the idiot who designed it had a fetish for functionless minimalism and a complete absence of physical controls

honestly that's probably easier than navigating in normal traffic bc speed is close to zero and there are no rules.

just run a fluid dynamics simulation with your car as a particle and you're most of the way there
