Unlike the Tesla that was stranded on the ocean, which we told you about a few weeks ago, this Model 3 handles surprisingly well the flooded streets in China. The videos you can see are shared on Twitter and show the same white car passing quite a serious amount of water without difficulty.
You’ve probably watched this clip from China already but many of you may not know driver & passengers were saved thanks to the wading capability of Model 3, which was coming out of a completely flooded tunnel where there were still some vehicles trapped inside. pic.twitter.com/1xMMIjJ21q

A few weeks ago, we showed you another video in which Tesla shows how it tests its cars assembled in China, and one of the tasks that electric cars had to overcome was going through deep water.

The videos were shared by a fan of the brand on Twitter and according to one of them, Tesla got stuck in a tunnel and thanks to its “swimming” abilities managed to get out of the water trap. Of course, the experience is not particularly recommended, given the modules and batteries that are located in the car, but it is a fact that the particular car coped with the water disaster.
When Tesla pressed the sailing mode,
Immediately the brake failed to cross the floodplain.
The whole country couldn’t stop screaming,
Four rounds have passed the turbid waves! pic.twitter.com/CWcYKYt5rH
