Tesla's primary USP is the insane, raw performance of their flagships. In terms of acceleration, few cars, let alone electric car game DLC|https://evinsightzone.com/, can compete with some of its market leaders. But, as Top Gear points out , these "YouTube friendly 0-60 times" don't always reflect the car's overall package. The Polestar meanwhile, gives you everything you could possibly want from a saloon/SUV crossover. It's not exactly slow, even if it clocks in at a frankly excessive weight of 2.1 tonnes. but more than that, its spacious and comfortable to drive, thanks to the smooth handling and limited driver modifications required. This isn't one for the purist, but in terms of wider appeal, it ticks all boxes with flying col

But getting to the production model definitely took some time. With core concepts in mind, Jenkins said, "We really focused, from that point, building this brand around those attributes, building a core DNA to the brand. And then that, of course, leads to actually designing the car and building an aesthet

Add in all the videos online showing Tesla seven-seaters challenging legit supercars and it's safe to say my interest has been piqued for a while now. But up until recently, I'd only ever sat in a Model X (in the backseat, mostly to check out the Falcon Wing door debacle ). So when my friend Ryan announced that he had scheduled a real-life Tesla Model 3 " touchless test drive " last week, I jumped at the chance to join in on the

It can be tempting to always have an EV fully charged and ready to go at all times but that may not be the best for long term battery health. Experts recommend limiting the Model 3 or any EV’s battery charge to 80% or 90% unless the driver is going on a road trip and actually needs the full battery charge. Owners can set the limit in the car settings or app setti

Not so. Halfway through a relatively tight turn, I slammed the accelerator to the floor, snapped both our heads back, and immediately broke the rear tires loose. In all fairness to Elon's engineers, the Model 3 handled my mania with aplomb, sliding through an easily controlled drift with just a flick of the steering wheel (presumably thanks to the low polar moment of inertia made possible by the skateboard chass

Safely through the intersection, I chuckled to myself. Ryan seemingly took the episode in stride, no problem. And so, when a right turn onto Sunset Boulevard approached, I let a string of cars go by, checked both directions, and did it all over ag

We’ve spoken about how quickly the Model 3’s battery recharges, but did you know that it has a total range of 310 miles? This means that if you are organized and plan your trips smartly, you can simply charge it at home, without having the need to go anywhere else. Thank you, E

The Tesla Model 3 comes with 2 options that you can buy: an autopilot system or full self-driving capability. This is the future, now! However, you must not mistake it for a fully autonomous vehicle, as you still have to be aware and ready to take over should something go wr

Did you know that the Tesla Model 3 was an insanely fast car? It can zip from 0 to 60 miles per hour in only 3.2 seconds, making it almost as fast as a Ferrari 488GTB. It comes equipped with a carbon fiber spoiler, which makes the car more stable when driving quickly - and it looks kinda styl

The reason why 80% is the recommended limit is that past that point, charging mechanisms must work extra hard to stuff the last few percentage points into the battery. It’s why it only takes about half an hour to go from zero to 80% battery charge but it takes an hour and a half to go from zero to 100% battery cha

Originally, he was dead-set on something bigger, probably used, with a bit of power under the hood (years ago, Ryan owned a 1990s 4Runner and loved everything about it except the weak engine). The first-place option on his growing list of potentials has typically been a Porsche Cayenne—probably a V8, hopefully a GTS, or, at the very least, an S. But he's also pondered the Macan... and a 1980s Mercedes-Benz diesel station wagon... and a mid-2000s Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG wagon... and on and

With stock specially built 35-inch tires, the Hummer comes with the shoes most fans would've been eager to install had they not sold it as such. In fact, upgrading to 37-inch tires is no big hurdle with the Hummer. Plus, with the Infinity modular roof system, this will be a truly memorable vehicle to occupy. Clearly, GMC and the new Hummer EV is ready to go where no Hummer has gone bef

Finally, the Crabwalk feature we previewed earlier today demonstrates GMC's understanding that sometimes the only way out is sideways with rear-wheel steering. This truck isn't just about off-roading though, as it should be a capable daily driver to and from the office as w

At the Tesla store (showroom?) in the Westfield Century City mall, customers (clients?) aren't allowed to actually sit in any actual Teslas—LA's in the throes of a pandemic, after all. But Tesla compensates for that potential difficulty by offering the so-called "touchless test drive" where a salesperson (concierge?) hands off the car and stays behind while amateur EV drivers get up to god-knows-what behind the wh
