Tesla Model 3: Driving
This section illustrates a number of driving-related topics. The first section goes over how to operate the different controls, including the parking brake, gas and brake pedals, steering wheel, and gear selector.
It also examines the many driving modes that the Model 3 offers, including Sport mode for more dramatic driving, Normal mode for everyday driving, and Chill mode for more gradual acceleration.
Regenerative braking is one of the main topics discussed in this part; its advantages for recharging the battery and increasing driving energy efficiency are thoroughly explored.
There is also a description of the Model 3 Autopilot's self-steering and traffic-aware cruise control (TACC) technologies, which allow for somewhat autonomous highway driving.
In order to increase driving safety, safety systems including Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), Collision Avoidance, and Lane Departure Prevention are described along with how to utilize and set them.
