2 Answers
model-3 overheat protection needs to be turned on. Here are the specific details about the Tesla Model 3: 1. Vehicle Positioning: The wheelbase of this car is 2875 mm, and the length, width, and height are 4694 mm, 1850 mm, and 1443 mm respectively. 2. Power: The Model 3 has both rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive versions. The four-wheel drive version is a dual-motor model, while the rear-wheel drive version is a single-motor model. The total motor power of the four-wheel drive Model 3 is 340 kW, with a total torque of 639 Nm. The rear-wheel drive version has a maximum motor power of 202 kW and a maximum torque of 404 Nm. 3. Battery: The Model 3 uses ternary lithium batteries across the entire lineup, which have higher energy density and are lighter in weight.
As a Model 3 owner, I find the cabin overheat protection feature worth enabling. This protection automatically activates the AC during summer heat to prevent the interior from becoming oven-like, especially important to avoid scalding risks when children or pets are left in the car. It also safeguards the dashboard and upholstery from cracking, extending vehicle longevity. Although operation consumes battery and affects range, the trade-off for safety and comfort when parked outdoors under scorching sun is worthwhile. I've set mine to activate above 35°C, balancing power usage with protection. Adjust settings based on weather instead of running it blindly all day - saving power isn't difficult. Overall, it's a thoughtful feature that helps reduce maintenance headaches.
