Until I drove this car I didn't know what it was like to "be transported" by a vehicle that serves my every need and desire. It's beyond amazing, that even with all these features, this car is about the least expensive to own that you can buy. The car is an absolute pleasure to drive. I keep looking for good reasons to take longer and longer trips. My vehicle is the SR+, not the most expensive version, yet it meets every desire. It has an outstanding sound system, the seats are the best I've ever sat in, the material is better than leather, the interior is constant luxury, I am very used to having just the one screen in the car. Driving the car is amazing. Acceleration is always there, waiting for you. Handling is excellent. In about a month of ownership I've kept good tabs on the expense and I'm very satisfied with the cost of home charging and the amount of charging required. I've taken several road trips and I'm confident I could (and will) drive across the country without any range anxiety. With this vehicle, no matter where your destination, you'll have so much fun on the journey. Update 1-22 after 19 months of ownership the honeymoon with this car has only continued. I still make excuses to drive it and it hasn’t lost any of its glow. We are in the cold of winter and range is diminished but that’s expected. It’s still as practical as any car I’ve owned and I’ve owned many. I love this car and I’m still finding new features. Update 1-23. I still have had no issues with this car and still love it. I've had no maintenance except tire rotation.

The greatest vehicle I've ever owned. And it's not just because it's electric, or just because it has a Bang&Olufssen sound system that can shake the street or just wrap you in deep quality sound, or the surprising amount of storage everywhere or the head-snapping solid and smooth acceleration the instant you ask; it's about the driving. Tight cornering, smooth at high speed, responsive not sloppy steering, quick braking - and autosteer that takes most of the stress out of the daily commute. And that acceleration. Sure, quibble about a small panel alignment, maybe the dashboard could have used a dial or two, and the touchscreen takes (a little) getting used to. The driver-assisted cruise control is top of class, with lane-keeping, collision detection and autofollow in addition to autosteer. Software updates happen about monthly; service is at your location if needed, and I haven't needed anything except tire rotations. It's laughable that Nissan tries to sell the Leaf - literally a Versa with 10 year old battery tech in it - with max 3/4 the range as a competitor, for very nearly the same price. I've had a few practical and even fun cars; the M3 is the best, and at this price it's a great car.

Winter handling is exceptional. Acceleration changes the way you drive- it's safer than ICE. Voice commands are fantastic. Very very happy with this car
Awesome Tesla 2020 LR AWD.

I’m leasing this car as I know the battery and electric motor tech will significantly improve in a couple years. Now the over the WiFi software updates are awesome. The driving experience is something you only know by really driving this car. I have the Long Range All Wheel Drive and I see what all the bloggers are raving about. I’ve not had any problems with the fit and finish or drive ability. I’m glad I got the long range version as this includes the premium interior. My only disappointment is Tesla hasn’t made available the US version of the CCS 1 adapter which would likely double choices for on the road fast charging options. Look up your local Tesla motor club, find someone to give you a ride, go for a test drive, just do it!!!!

Update: After 2 years and 35k miles, the car is still outstanding. It is my preferred car for long drives. I only wish it could be a truck. This car (Tesla Model 3 Long Range) has completely ruined all other cars for me. I never realized how pathetic gasoline cars are until I bought and drove this car. It's been back to the service center once for an adjustment to the door fit since the door alignment was not quite right when I picked up the car. Tesla fixed the door alignment while I waited. My fears regarding range and snow handling have turned out to be non issues. The 320 mile range provides so much room that I can comfortably make long road trips where the limit of range is really my bladder, my stomach, and my need to stand up and walk around after a few hours of driving. The supercharging network is outstanding and located close to amenities. I plug in, I go find the restroom and a quick meal, and I'm back in the car and on the road again. Snow/ice handling has turned out to be phenomenal. The Tesla Model 3's traction control is outstanding, easily outperforming snow handling vs a Toyota Tacoma. My wife loves driving it, my son (aged 7) loves riding in it. Sometimes we even sit in the driveway watching TV on the big screen because it's the best place in our house to watch TV. Seriously. Also the sound system is phenomenal and I have started loading high-quality FLAC files on USB drives because the Tesla will play them. But HD-FM and the streaming services also sound excellent. And of course we love the remote features so that the car is always warm and ready to go when we want to get in. "Smart Summon" is occasionally quite useful (loading stuff into the car at Home Depot, for example). Basically, this car is brilliant, and anyone considering spending $30k or more on a car should seriously look at the Tesla Model 3.
