When Jonathan, a subscriber to my very interesting and useful tech newsletter The Sizzle<\/a>, asked me if I’d like to swap my Hyundai Ioniq for a Tesla Model 3, I immediately agreed. He was awesome enough to trust me (someone he never met) with his new car, unsupervised for an entire day. I drove it almost 300km from Melbourne, to Castlemaine and Bendigo, then to Ballarat via Daylesford and back to Melbourne.<\/p>\n

Just like how I recently compared the Nissan LEAF to the Ioniq<\/a>, let’s compare the a day with the Tesla Model 3 to the Ioniq!<\/p>\n

Some basics about the Model 3 out of the way for those that don’t already know:<\/strong> it’ll go 380km on a full charge with its 54kWh battery, can suck down 100kW from a Tesla supercharger or high powered CCS2 charger and pricing starts at $73,135 drive away in Victoria for the Standard Range Plus in white, which is what I drove. If you want a deep and thorough review of all the Model 3 features, these three videos cover basically everything you could want to know about the current version (much has changed between 2017 & 2019) Model 3:<\/p>\n
