A Tesla Model 3 with more than 609,000 km on its original battery still charged at up to 111 kW and drove well enough to win over a car-care shop that went to look at it.

It's the first episode of the channel's Tesla Resurrection series, and the channel calls the car the highest-mileage Tesla it could find for sale in North America.
