Domestic Model 3 is a mid-size pure electric sedan produced by Tesla in China. The high-performance version accelerates up to 3.3s per 100 kilometers. It focuses on household use, sports, and AP smart driving. It is Tesla's first domestic model. It directly turns Tesla from an imported luxury car into an ordinary family car. It is also the only car that dares to sell 300,000 yuan without an instrument. Let me give you a comprehensive analysis of this car from the perspective of configuration interpretation to see how the configuration strength of this car is performed.
model configuration
is currently on sale, namely rear-wheel drive version and high-performance version, with a price range of 290,000 to 367,900 yuan. In early March, the price of the high-performance version was 339,900 yuan, but on March 10, Tesla issued an announcement that due to the increase in raw materials, the price of the high-performance version was raised by 10,000 yuan, and the price was adjusted to 349,900 yuan. One week later, on March 17, Tesla raised the price of the high-performance version by 18,000 yuan, from 349,900 yuan to 367,900 yuan.
Note: The current new energy subsidy policy applies to models less than 300,000 yuan. If you choose a rear-wheel drive version, the total price of the model is not higher than 300,000 yuan. Private purchases can enjoy a new energy subsidy of 11,088 yuan, and non-private purchases or operating vehicles can enjoy a subsidy of 7,761 yuan. If the vehicle price is higher than 300,000 yuan after the optional configuration is increased, the new energy subsidy cannot be enjoyed. The subsidy shall be subject to the policies issued by the government.
Appearance and color
All series can choose from 5 appearance colors, namely Deep Sea Blue (8000 yuan), Black, Cold Light Silver (8000 yuan), Pearl White (multi-coated, 8000 yuan), Chinese Red (multi-coated, 8000 yuan). I personally think Deep Sea Blue is better and more fashionable.
lighting configuration
all series comes with LED headlights, LED daytime running lights , adaptive high and low beam, automatic headlights, adjustable headlight height, and delayed headlights. Among them, the high-performance version has more front fog lights and monochrome aura lights in the car.
In terms of body appearance, the entire series has a segmented and non-openable panoramic sunroof. The glass area is huge and is called a panoramic skylight. The entire piece of glass extends from the root of the front hatch to the roof. The advantage is that front and rear passengers have a wide field of view and are particularly good in the light. However, Tesla claims that the optimized glass material can effectively block ultraviolet and infrared rays, and can greatly reduce heat invasion and reduce glare even during direct sunlight. However, the experience of the real car of the big sun is relatively sunny.
high-performance version has an additional sports appearance kit, including a carbon fiber spoiler, which can improve aerodynamic performance and driving stability during high-speed driving, as well as 19-inch zero-gravity dynamic wheels with red multi-piston brake calipers.
The entire series comes with frameless doors and hidden door handles, which is very high-end.
wheel braking
brake system, all four wheels are equipped with anti-lock braking system (ABS) with electronic braking force distribution, integrated advanced stability control and energy recovery braking system activated by electronic accelerator pedal. The front brake disc and rear brake disc of the rear-wheel drive version use ventilated discs, the front brake caliper uses 4 pistons, and the rear brake caliper uses single pistons.
high-performance version front brake disc and rear brake disc both use ventilation disc with toothed disc. The front brake caliper uses large 4-piston brake caliper sprayed in red, and the rear brake caliper uses 2-piston caliper sprayed in red.
In terms of brake assist system, the entire Tesla Molde 3 series uses the Bosch iBooster electronic power assist brake system.
wheels, the rear-wheel drive version comes with 18-inch power wheels with low-resistance trim. Remove the wind-resistance trim cover, and the forged wheels inside are optional. 19-inch sports wheels (6,000 yuan). The high-performance version uses 19-inch zero-gravity high-performance wheels.
tires, the rear-wheel drive version uses Michelin 35/45ZR18 98Y PILOT SPORT 4 performance tires.
high performance version uses Pirelli 235/40R19 96W P ZERO performance tires.
spare tire, there is no spare tire in the entire series. The entire
series uses electronic handbrakes, saving space inside the car and easy to operate.
In terms of internal configuration,
interior color, pure black interior (black seats), plus 8,000 yuan to choose from black and white interior (white seats).
The entire series uses a leather multi-function steering wheel, but it is very simple, with only two rollers and arrow keys.
steering wheel is equipped with electric up and down and front and rear adjustments, and the steering wheel has position memory function and steering wheel heating function. Adjustment switches and heating switches are integrated in the large screen. The left circular key can be used to match, so as to adjust the steering wheel position.
The entire system has no instruments, and the speed value is displayed in the upper left corner of the central control screen. I was a little uncomfortable when I first started driving. If I am used to driving, you can use the oscillator to scan the central control to view the current vehicle speed value.
high-performance version uses advanced pedals and is made of aluminum alloy to enhance the interior design sense. The rear-wheel drive version does not.
In terms of seat configuration, the entire series is equipped with imitation leather seats, which feels average.
The entire series of main driver seats and co-driver seats support electric adjustment, and the main driver seats and co-driver seats support front and rear movement, high and low adjustment, and backrest angle adjustment, but the main driver seats also have more waist adjustment, and the co-driver seats do not.
All series of front seats support seat heating and main seat position memory function, and all series of second row seats support seat heating function.

Tesla air conditioning system has three special modes, namely, maintaining temperature control , dog mode and camping mode, and people can also keep the temperature control system running when leaving the vehicle.
"Keep the temperature control", which can keep the temperature in the car appropriately in the hot summer or cold winter, so as not to be too hot or too cold.
"Dog Mode" is to keep the pet comfortable temperature, adjust the temperature at any time when using the Tesla APP, and the cab temperature will be displayed on the large screen, so that people passing by will know that your pet is safe. It should be noted that this mode can only be used for a short time by the driver around and cannot be used for a long time.
"Camping Mode" can maintain the cab temperature, and can also charge electronic products through the USB interface and low voltage socket, which can keep the central control displayed regularly. Car owners can watch movies, listen to music, play games, or control media and temperature settings through paired mobile phones. Many people use this camping mode to camp in the wild. It should be noted that after camping mode is enabled, the sentry mode and vehicle alarm system will be disabled.
Also reminds you that using "keep temperature control", "dog mode" and "camping mode" requires ensuring that the battery power is not less than 20%, and you need to park in P gear.

However, although Tesla Model 3 implements the Autopilot automatic assisted driving function, it still needs to be continuously improved. It needs to be continuously iterated and updated through OTA, and will realize fully autonomous driving in the future. The features that come with but not yet FOTA are: identifying traffic lights and stop signs and responding, automatically assisting driving in city streets, and when using "active cruise control" or "automatic assisting steering", the vehicle will detect and identify clear and obvious traffic lights and stop signs, and slow down and stop in advance according to the situation.

model recommendations
Currently, there are two models on sale in 2022, the rear-wheel drive version and the high-performance version. Before March, the author would recommend buying the high-performance version. The price was 339,900 yuan at the time. Just in terms of the range of 675km and 3.3 seconds and 000 acceleration, the high-performance version is very affordable. However, as mentioned above, after the two rounds of price adjustments on March 10 and March 17, the price of the high-performance version rose by 28,000 yuan, and the price was as high as 367,900 yuan. This cost-effectiveness is a bit low, so now I suggest that the author recommends that the price of the high-performance version rise by 28,000 yuan, with a price of up to 367,900 yuan. This cost-effectiveness is a bit low, so now I suggest that Choose the rear-wheel drive version, and the price of the bare car + the optional configuration should not exceed 300,000 yuan, otherwise you will not be able to enjoy a new energy subsidy of 11,000 yuan (private). In fact, although the rear-wheel drive version lacks the front motor, it has 6.1 seconds to accelerate from 000 yuan, and the CLTC battery life is also 556km. The daily actual battery life is 350km~400km. There is basically no difference in the interior compared to the high-performance version. The exterior is only a sporty exterior package, and there is basically no difference in others, so the purchasingability of the rear-wheel drive version is still good. In addition, considering the new energy subsidy, although the automatic driving optional package is good, it is not recommended to be optional. Of course, if the budget is sufficient, please feel free to do it.
summary
Relying on its futuristic shape, powerful AP autonomous driving capabilities and super integrated capabilities of three electric power. Although the interior is minimalist, without instruments, and the entire series of imitation leather interiors still make Tesla Model 3 has become the best-selling model in Tesla series. Good sales also help Tesla recover financially and its stock price soars. Of course, there are many advantages and disadvantages. The first thing that is the minimalist interior and no sense of luxury. Secondly, the suspension shock absorption is hard, the sound insulation of the whole vehicle is relatively average, and finally the rights protection storm caused by the brake problem. The brake problem may be kinetic energy recovery, the complex software relationship between the brake system and the ESP. What problems arise under specific working conditions caused some car owners to think that they can't brake, or it may be that the single pedal mode has changed the car owner's habits, causing some car owners to think that they can't brake or others. However, for any reason, Tesla official should give a reasonable and detailed explanation when facing the car owner's rights protection, rather than a tough attitude. This hard attitude will really cause a certain negative impact on the brand. If Tesla official can be gentler when facing after-sales rights protection issues, then the product will take Model The interior of 3 is improved a little bit, even without the instrument and AR-HUD. If the suspension is more comfortable, I believe the sales performance should be better! The above is my interpretation of the configuration of Tesla Model 3, hoping to help car friends.
