Tesla 's new Model 3 Long Range RWD incorporates the " Highland " updates.

The car's battery has increased in capacity from 75.0 to 79.7 kilowatt-hours .

The interior employs upgraded finishes and materials along with a lack of stalks and minimal physical buttons.

From rest to 60 mph now takes only 4.6 seconds , down from 5.0 .

This latest Model 3 uses acoustic glass all around, and combined with other sound-suppressing measures, achieves a 70-mph cruising sound level of 67 decibels.

Ride comfort is also very good, both on small, sharp bumps and larger disturbances.

The only available cruise control seems to be " Traffic-Aware ," Tesla-speak for adaptive cruise control.

While no sports sedan, the Model 3 would make a very comfortable long-distance cruiser.
