The car is amazing. The ONLY thing that is not ideal is that the battery only charges to 196 miles at 100%. Other than that the vehicle is perfect for what I need.

Why it stands out
The 2022 Tesla Model 3 stands out for pairing electric-car efficiency with a clean, modern driving experience. Owners often praise its performance, contemporary design, and eco-friendly appeal, along with the convenience of skipping gas stations. It also has a smooth ride and a minimalist cabin that some buyers find appealing because it keeps the focus on the essentials.
At the same time, the 2022 Tesla Model 3 is not for everyone. Some drivers feel the range is a bit lacking, and the height of entry and exit can be a drawback. Its simplified controls are a strength for shoppers who like a streamlined interface, but others wish for a more traditional setup.
