Tesla Launches Affordable Model 3 Long Range Rear-Wheel Drive at $35k

Tesla's new Model 3 Long Range Rear-Wheel Drive, launching at $35,000, delivers exceptional performance with over 360 miles of range.

Among Tesla's electric vehicles, the new Model 3 Long Range Rear-Wheel-Drive stands out for its meticulous design. Exceptional acceleration, a peak speed on par with most premium automobiles, and a range of over 360 miles are all yours for an incredibly low price.

According to Teslarati, the cheapest vehicle in Tesla's lineup is the Model 3 Rear Wheel Drive, which starts at $34,990 after the $7,500 EV tax credit. Under the regular RWD configuration, it comes in at $4,000 less.

Exceptional Performance and Speed

With a top speed of 125 miles per hour and an EPA-estimated 363 miles of range, this vehicle is quite impressive. Along with its other impressive performance figures, it can accelerate from 0 to 60 MPH in a mere 4.9 seconds. Puerto Rico was also the site of the vehicle's introduction by Tesla.

Tesla deducts $5,000 in gas savings over five years from the sticker price, bringing the total down to $34,990 after federal EV tax credits. A price of $29,999 would be achieved, bringing the automobile down from $30,000 in a hypothetical scenario.

You won't find a better range and performance for the money. In terms of performance metrics and range rating, there are currently very few electric vehicles available that can be considered equivalent at this price point.

The vehicle is not available for leasing at this time according to Tesla.

Ready for Delivery Soon

The latest Model 3 configuration seems to be ready for delivery by the end of the month, according to Tesla. The estimated delivery date is July to August 2024.

This year, Tesla debuted the Model 3 with a new body style in the US. The car, which is referred to as "Highland" by many, has new headlamps and a more defined exterior. Its cabin is even more spare, and it has improved suspension and handling.
