Overview

Belonging to the compact electric sedan segment, the 2024 Tesla Model 3 competes against the BMW i4 and the Polestar 2. Spread across 2 trims, the 2024 Tesla Model 3 starts off with a base MSRP of $49,000 going all the way up to $57,000. The base trim offers a single electric motor that powers the rear wheels producing 271 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque. The motor is mated to a standard 1-speed automatic transmission that drives the rear wheels of the vehicle. With this powertrain setup, the Model 3 reaches 60 mph within 5.1 seconds. With this, you get a 60 kWh battery pack that provides 272 miles of range. The second powertrain is a dual motor setup that makes 470 hp and has a driving range of 382 mi.

Buying Advice

The Model 3 is differentiated according to its powertrain configuration. While the exact details of the 2024 Model 3 aren’t out yet, we expect it not to deviate too much from the 2023 model. We’d recommend the Long Range model for the compact sedan since it strikes a perfect balance between performance and driving range. Moreover, the long list of standard features acts as an icing on the cake.
