Hopefully the guy testing was like “yeah, I know, my boss is watching.”

need that shirt, and i also sorta don't need my diesel brothers shirt anymore ;_;
You can tell that guy at the track is grinning in the bottom picture.
My Model 3 has loudly alerted me to left low beam failing and needing service twice, even though it was visibly on and perfectly fine both times. Warning went away after a single drive both times, last one is about half a year back now, so I assume it was a misdetection. Those LEDs are supposed to last pretty much forever... theoretically.Yesterday car decided that rear left turning indicator wasn't needed, so i ignored the alert and it was gone when i needed the car again 3h later D:
That's pretty decent consumption for highway speed. I haven't done any terribly scientific measurements, but my usual highway consumption averages out to somewhere around 20kWh/100km. Also, with "aircon on" do you mean just cooling or also heating? The latter will absolutely demolish the Model 3's consumption; however, iirc you have a heat pump in the ID.3, so it should manage quite a bit better in the cold.Car uses about 8% battery on my 25km commute (mostly ringroads, 80km/h), so calculated range while only doing commute is 312km.
While on comparison at 123km/h the consumption is 15kW/100km on level ground with aircon on, so ~350km range, not bad.

The cable is so long so you can park your car any way you'd like (backwards, like you did, or the incorrect way) and you'll still have enough cable for it to reach the charge port. I see the port is in the right rear, identical to my Golf, and I like that. None of this "lets open a shitty flap on the front so our hands are covered in schmutz everytime we open and close it" nonsense like on a Leaf.
Got to drive one of these for a short while too, it's massively more roomy on the inside compared to my Golf. Interior quality a bit meh, but overall driving is quite fun. It will drift too because RWD.
It took care of things nicely - But I was on a tight twisty road that I barely know with a pregnant GF next to me, so I wasn't really pushing it
