Tesla Model 3 - Midnight Silver Metallic
We joined the EV revolution back in Sept 2021.
Tesla has unique Sales & Marketing costs…. basically NONE! They have cleverly focused all their money on improving vehicles, manufacturing and reducing costs. See this detailed article how Tesla have given the world new Model T and called it a Model 3.
HAPPY CUSTOMERS ARE TESLA’S BEST ADVERTISERS………..That’s why they support a ‘Referral Program’ where new customers can gain Loot Box $$$……
Tesla Model 3, a purchase for her October 2021 birthday having sold our VW T6 4wd Campervan……..Wow is Julie a happy EV owner, as she says “best car I have ever owned and driven”!
I did much research back in July ’21 and the Tesla Model 3 just stood out from the crowd when it came to overall spec’s, RWD, quality, service and support. We have never regretted the decision!
What amazed me the most during my research was the imminent massive shift in Australian Vehicle Sales and Service as we have known it for our lifetime!
@ 2026 = 5 Yrs ownership – total service costs $220 – 4 lots of rotate tyres!!
Unique Tesla advances
- Vehicle bought Online
- Delivered to our door (we are South Coast > 250klm from Syd)
- NO yearly Service Costs
- Software driven vehicle and constantly being updated/improved!
- We have received extra features not in the original purchase vehicle, simply updated via software.
- All Service OR Vehicle queries handled via your Mobile App …..bloody amazing and excellent service!
Aug 2024 - 4,520 klm Holiday Trip - $420 charge costs
What a great trip we had……I started by planning the route: Mollymook Beach to Adelaide, then back down the Great Ocean Rd to Melbourne on to Wilson’s Promentary then back up via the East Coast to home.
I used a Better Route Planner (Free Edition) to work out our charge stops, then when in the Tesla, utilised Navigation. It all worked seemlessly and we had one of our best relaxed road trips ever! Tesla is just so smart charging; if you utilise the car’s navigation to head to a charger, it can auto pre-condition battery for charging, thus reducing time, WOW it just works!
No issues finding available charge stations you can use Plug Share or Evie Charging………. just do it!
2nd Model 3 arrives!
So impressed with our first Tesla Model 3 that in May 2024 we duplicated it!
Sold our BMW 520d and immediately ordered our next Model 3………..three weeks later we picked it up at Miranda in Sydney.
“By buying any electric car, you are helping to decarbonise Australia’s transport sector, which is one-fifth of our total economy-wide emissions.
You can roughly double the positive impact … by recharging it from solar instead of through the grid. And you can make even more of an impact by buying one that has been designed and built to be relatively sustainable.”
Julie and Dennis could rave on & on (well Dennis anyway!) about how much they enjoy their Tesla Model 3 sedan.
It is like entering another simplified world when driving the car. Often you hear, well there’s no speedo in front of the driver, one has to glance to the left to see it on the large central display. Nothing to worry about at all! A simple peripheral glance and its there OR let the vehicle drive itself on Cruise Control, recognising speed limits, auto braking as traffic slows, auto hold, auto restart as traffic ahead moves…….a joy to drive!
In fact most commands for vehicle control can simply be spoken, such as:
- Set temperature to 22 – Aircon is auto changed.
- Wipers On – they will start.
- Set volume 4 – media volume adjusted
- Play Roy Orbison on Spotify…..voila!!
Simplify your world Now & Act on Climate Change – Buy an EV Now!
