Without a doubt, that instantaneous torque immediately becomes addicting. I was well above 60 in a 30 by the time I decided to focus on the car's other characteristics or risk getting a pretty hefty ticket. "This is a nice car," I kept saying to Ryan as he nodded, clearly impressed himself. "Like, a really nice car! Way better than I expect
With all this talk about EVs being the future, it's easy to get caught up in what a lot of companies are really trying to do. Gittin Jr. mentions that he and Ford aren't necessarily trying to replace internal combustion cars with this vehicle, but simply using it to educate people about there being other opti
In the Tesla Model 3, everything is controlled electronically via the screen onboard. This includes air conditioning, the radio, etc. Thanks to this, it gives the car a much cleaner and minimalist look as it avoids the need to have buttons and knobs scattered all over the place like in most cars to
It should be no surprise to see Audi appear on this list. They might not have the same feel as a Mercedes, but they are no less luxurious. The A6 is no exception to that rule either. Audi’s are great performers on urban and country roads, as well as the highways too. Plus, what’s not to like about all-wheel dr
This 1977 K5 Blazer has received a conversion to an entirely electric drivetrain, replacing its original 400ci V8, which produced an anemic 175 horsepower from the factory that was routed through a three-speed automatic. Now, under the hood lurks a Bolt EV motor, providing 200 ponies and 266 lb-ft of torque to a four-speed automatic. The transfer case, driveshaft, and axles remain in factory f
But due to the lack of a rotating internal combustion assembly, other electrical components have been added including an electric power steering setup, an electric brake booster, and a conversion to electronic control for the gauge cluster that adds a battery charge meter in place of the fuel ga
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
The reason we were test driving two full months before his lease expires is that Tesla's production backlog equates to about a five-to-nine week delivery estimate for buyers. In the meantime, Ryan has plenty of time to try out that Cayenne or Macan—or whatever else strikes his fancy in the inte
Some might think that since the Model 3 is an electric car, it can’t possibly go that fast, but it is actually as quick as a Ferrari 488 GTB. Also, the range is often an issue in electric car game collectibles|Https://evinsightzone.com/ cars, but the Model 3 can travel up to 310 miles per charge, and it only takes 15 minutes to recharge to 172 miles. We really are living in the future! Today, we have compiled a list of 15 amazing things that the Tesla Model 3 can do. Let’s get straight to
Matt Farah has made a life for himself that should make most gearheads sick with envy. On his YouTube channel The Smoking Tire, Farah regularly reviews some of the world's best cars, including recent posts taking the new 992-generation Porsche 911 Targa 4S out for a spin and blasting around the Angeles National Forest in a Ferrari F8 Spider . Now, Farah turns his attention to the all-electric Polestar 2 for a test drive in Malibu to see how this potential Tesla Model 3 competitor fares during some aggressive driving and from an overall value-meets-aesthetics standpo
The Polestar 2 shares much of its design aesthetic with its higher-spec hybrid sibling, but at a price that's at least somewhat closer to reasonable. The starting sticker price expected to begin around $61,000 before government incentive. That should place it in competition with higher-trim Tesla Models 3 and Y, which will share the Polestar 2's setup of an electric motor powering each axle with 201 horsepower and 243 lb-ft of torque (for a combined output of 402 ponies and 487 lb-ft of twi
Ryan currently leases a Volkswagen GTI and his three years will be up come December. He's also got a two-year-old son and another due in a few weeks, plus a big, energetic dog who travels with the fam—safe to say, his priorities are in the midst of a serious reshuffling and a car the size of a GTI just won't do the trick anym
Gittin Jr. gets to talking about what the vehicle is like to drive and how it compares to his Formula Drift Mustang. Gittin Jr. mentions that when he first felt the immense acceleration, he thought that something was actually wrong because it felt so unnatural to
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
