I tested the Model 3 Highland Long Range at the Tesla Store in Bundang. The advisor explained it slowly and kindly, so I experienced it very comfortably. There were few people in the store, so I also looked around the exhibition car.
The test drive was driven half way with his wife.
1) crazy acceleration
- I stepped on it a little bit, but it’s a test drive, so even though the maximum speed limit is on, it’s enough to feel the acceleration. It’s the first time I felt goosebumps on my back bone even though it’s a long range. What about Perfor or Pled…?
2) One-paddle, touch blinkers
- I was very worried about the one-paddle and blinkers because my wife was very scared, but my wife, who is mechanically challenged, also adapted to it in such a short time. However, she said, “I need to ride more to reduce the speed I want with one-paddle driving.”
3) a comfortable ride
- When I test-drive the old model 3, my wife said it wasn’t right as soon as I got off, but today she said it was much better as soon as I got on. It feels real-time to come in after skipping fine vibrations. Even the slightest bump is too smooth. I heard that the performance is harder, so let’s do a long range. If you like spherical firmness and sharp handling, you might be disappointed?
4) an improved seat
- It’s displayed alongside Model Y in the store, so I took turns sitting there, but the Highland seats are much more comfortable in both the first and second rows. It feels like it’s holding me tightly. The second row of Model Y was so flat that I wondered if it was too flat.
5) Other improvements
- I think it’s much more commercial than the Model Y, such as heavy door closing, ambient light, and second-row screen. If it’s not urgent, I think it’s right to buy a Juniper for the Model Y. Ultra red color is so cool.
