Tesla is just desperately trying to push Model S sales this quarter. That's probably also why they added back free supercharging to the Model S recently.
This only strengthens your main point.
I'm really interested in the topspeed. For german customers all the current gen EVs(Bolt/i3/Leaf/Ioniq) with a topspeed of 140-150km/h are to my opinion not really save to drive on the Autobahn as you don't have some speed buffer to overtake someone who's driving 120-130km/h fast enough. If Tesla manages to give the Model 3 a top-speed of 200km/h that would be a game-changer and make it a viable car for me. The Model…
> Model S is viable in that regard, just too expensive Wow, even the 2nd-hand price for a Model S in DE is €60k. I wonder why are they all Pxx models? https://www.tesla.com/de_DE/preowned?model=ms&sort=price|asc...
I'm not sure what was already known. This page shows both the model S and the model 3 side by side: Car length: 196.0" vs 184.4" 0-60mph Acceleration: as quick as 2.3s vs 5.6s Range: 249-335 Miles Range (EPA) vs 215+ Miles Range Supercharging: Free Unlimited Supercharging vs Pay Per Use Supercharging Passengers: Seating for 5 Adults + 2 Children vs Seating for 5 Adults Cargo: 30 cu ft Front & Rear Trunk Cargo Volume…
No driver display in model 3? This will be a big disappointment for many people.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
On the Autobahn.. Yes.
Why? Do you have a limited amount of time you can stay in the autobahn as opposed to a French or Spanish motorway, forcing you to speed up? Or is it that you just want to go 200Km/h and it's not about overtaking safely?

Model S supercharging for new vehicles is free only "with referral" - if the owner induces someone else to buy a vehicle too (tracked via a referral code). They didn't add back free supercharging as part of the original purchase. This only strengthens your main point.

It only mentioned the digital displays. There may well be analogue, like most cars have.
Tesla's don't have analogue displays.
The salient difference is the free use of supercharger for Model S.
Hmm, in my case, not at all. Depends on your location and use case. In my London situation, 95% of my journeys will be within 50 miles easily. I imagine it's more of an issue in the US and similar.
Best part: >Although it will be our newest vehicle, Model 3 is not “Version 3” or the most advanced Tesla. Like Model S, it is designed to be the safest car in its class. Gotta applaud the honesty.
