Model 3 uses the wheel motors to generate heat and has some kind of single nexus for all coolant, very much different from Model S. The story you posted doesn't say anything about how much energy was lost over just 4 days, and it being noteworthy that the car can be left for 4 days without incident at presumably a high state of charge is telling on its own.

In any case, the only difference between the two models is the amount of time it takes before the car exhausts itself maintaining the battery.
