I test drove a Model 3 and a Model X.
First thing to say about the Model 3 is that it's very, very low and small. The roof is low and it has the battery under the floor which raises that. Getting in and out was really awkward.
When you are in you have a recumbent driving position that I'm personally not a fan of. Otherwise it drives very well, smooth and responsive, great handling. It's not the quietest car though.
The Model X is much more comfortable. It's huge, a bit of a barge, but also extremely powerful and more nimble than you would expect. I really missed not having 360 cameras but would probably get used to the size eventually.
I also tried out the Audi Turd... Sorry, eTron. That thing is just stupid. Incredibly inefficient and it feels very heavy. Was not impressed with the interior either, didn't feel luxury and was extremely boring. The Jaguar iPace looks a lot better but I have not tried that.
Looking forward to the Honda e and might get a new 62kWh Leaf. The Leaf is just so frustrating... It badly needs a proper update. They downgraded the IC too, now it's got an analogue speedo instead of the excellent digital one that the old model had. Hopefully it gets the new ProPilot system soon, which allows you to go hands-off on certain roads.
I tried the Kia eNiro too. It's quiet, refined, drives well, plenty of space, decent interior although the dash plastic looked a bit cheap to me. The main problem is that they nerfed the UK spec, no app or LED headlights. Cancelled my order in the end, I'll wait for something better.

The Model 3 is about average height for a saloon, but most people here are driving hatchbacks or CUVs now... The thing is, the floor is higher than normal to accommodate the battery, so it is a little smaller than a typical ICE sedan of the same size.
I cancelled my Niro order, the First Edition was nerfed... Will stick with a used Leaf for now. Pre-order placed on a Honda e, but it better be cheap with a 125 WLTP range.

I know, right? At least with the Mitsubishi Pajero (Pajero = "guy who touches himself" in most Spanish-speaking countries), they renamed it the "Montero" in countries with significant Spanish-speaking populations. It's standard practice: if your product name is offensive or embarrassing in some language, rename it when you sell it there.
I forget, are they renaming the Kona in Portuguese-speaking countries (Cona = crude term for womens' genitals)? They've kept it as-is in Nordic countries (Kona = woman or wife, depending on the language), but that's only mildly amusing, not offensive.
ED: Yep, looks like it's called Kauai in Portugal [news.com.au]. Good move, Hyundai. :) Also from that article a few more that I hadn't heard of:
* Buick’s LaCrosse became the Allure in Canada because in Quebec, lacrosse means self-gratification. ;)
* Mazda’s Laputa was renamed in Spanish-speaking countries because “la puta” means “the prostitute”.
* Toyota Avalon was supposed to be the Toyota Centaur. But the Centaur was the name of an Australian hospital ship that the Japanese sunk (killing most onboard) in a big scandalous event during World War II. Since the Centaur was supposed to be sold in Australia...
* It happened in reverse when Toyota Australia developed a sport version of the Toyota Aurion, called the Toyota Chicane (as in, a serpentine curve on a race track). Problem is, in Japanese, a chikan is a pervert who gropes women on trains.
* Porsche considered retiring the 911 brand name after the 9/11 terrorist attacks in New York City (they polled the market, but the market said no, so they kept it).
It's funny that the one of these that everyone knows - the Chevy Nova ("no va" = "doesn't go") - is actually a myth. The Nova kept its name in Spanish-speaking countries and sold fine. The word "nova" exists in Spanish, with the same meaning as in English.

Indeed - for a more technical explanation, the intercalation rate in the anode is highly temperature dependent; lithium ions just don't want to slot into the gaps in the graphite when it's cold. If you try to intercalate lithum ions faster than the anode can take them, you plate out lithium metal, and that's a bad thing. So charging has to be very throttled at low temperatures - including charging from regen - until the pack is warmed up.

I just recently ordered a model 3 with the "full self-drive" option (which right now is really just a more powerful computer - and has more value than JUST some hoped-for-future-upgrade) - and it should be here in a couple of weeks.
The advance that this car represents is more than just "An electric car" and more than "A car that's actively moving towards full self driving" and more than a 5.5 second 0-60 time.
I mean - let's pretend it's NOT an electric car and it DOESN'T have self-driving stuff...let's just review it as if it had a gasoline engine and regular cruise control.
I'd still have been wowed enough to order one.
Just to sit in the thing and see the interior that's utterly devoid of weirdly labelled buttons and knobs - just one big touch screen for just about everything. Every smallest thing is automated. That you can control it from your phone almost as well as from sitting inside the thing. That it has "Dog Mode" so you can leave the car unattended with your dog inside and it'll keep the temperature safe.
Every tiny detail about what a car should be has been re-thought.
Consider that it has a burglar alarm ("sentry mode") that's actually USEFUL...so instead of just pointlessly making a loud noise (which everyone else in the world just shrugs off as a false alarm) when it's already too late - it sees suspicious behavior around the car - it pings your cellphone - it records 360 degree video AND it plays loud music (which, admittedly, everyone will ignore).
When you go to "refuel" at a Tesla supercharger - the charger and the car talk to each other - the cost of charging goes to whatever credit card you told the car to use. As you bring the charger "nozzle" towards the car, the "gas flap" opens as if by magic. The car and charger negotiate current versus battery temperatures. Heck, as you drive towards the charging station, the car starts pre-warming/cooling the batteries for optimum charge temperature.
In the event of a crash - you have 360 video from the car so it's clear why the accident happened and who's fault it was...it saves realtime video to a USB card if you plug one into it.
Then...no oil changes...the service interval is "NEVER!"...aside from tires and wiper blades - there is essentially nothing that runs out or wears out.
There are REALLY subtle things going on that you'll never even notice - so, for example, you have regenerative braking which absorbs kinetic energy and dumps the waste energy into the battery. But what happens if the battery is fully charged? No more regenerative brakes? Well, the Tesla reserves a certain amount of battery capacity specifically for regenerative braking capacity - and (of course) you still have old-school brake pads.
While you're waiting for your car to charge - there are video games. There is a car racing game (kinda like MarioKart) where you drive using the Tesla's actual controls. More games are added every month or so.
It was recently found that the old 40 bit encryption between keyfob and car wasn't enough to prevent high-tech thieves from stealing cars. So they did a live software update to both car and keyfob(!) to push that to 80 bits...and just yesterday, they did another update to make the 80 bit encryption even better. There is no other car on the entire planet where you get that kind of post-sales service. NONE.
There is very much to be loved here.
