In this exhilarating episode of Jay Leno's Garage, we dive deep into the world of the 2024 Tesla Model 3 with none other than the chief of design and chief engineer, Lars and Franz. This new Model 3 isn't just a mere upgrade - it's a symphony of aerodynamic prowess, safety innovations, and efficiency enhancements. From its sleek design with updated headlights and tail lights to its revamped interior featuring new screens and ventilated seats, this Tesla is a true marvel of automotive engineering.

But wait, there's more! With a coefficient of drag of 0.219, the Model 3 stands as Tesla's most aerodynamic masterpiece yet. The engineering team didn't stop there - they delved into safety improvements, new battery technologies allowing for daily 100% charging, and efficiency upgrades in tires and wheels. And let's not forget about the cooling system, which includes liquid-cooled batteries and active grill shutters for optimal performance in any situation.

The heat pump system in the Model 3 is a game-changer, efficiently regulating the vehicle's temperature by transferring heat where needed, even in the most frigid conditions. The team's discussion on aerodynamics, downforce, and lift reveals the meticulous balance achieved in the car's design, thanks to the seamless collaboration between designers and aerodynamicists. Moreover, the integration of heating systems in the Model 3 ensures a comfortable and energy-efficient driving experience, setting a new standard in the world of electric vehicles.
