Tesla promised an affordable $ 35,000 electric vehicle before launching the Model 3 electric vehicle years ago. This promise was partially fulfilled in 2019, but at that time, the Model 3 Standard Range was only on sale for two months and then withdrawn from the market. Now, it is bringing a $ 35,000 electric vehicle back to life, this time with the Model 3 Long Range RWD with a range of 584 km.
$35,000 Tesla Model 3 is on sale
The starting price of this new model is 42 thousand 490 dollars, but when the tax credit is taken into account, the price drops to 34 thousand 990 dollars. So, finally, the $ 35,000 Tesla dream has become a reality. The new Model 3 LR RWD accelerates from 0-60 mph (0-97 km/h) in 4.9 seconds and has a top speed of 125 mph (201 km/h). The combination of performance and price makes this new model the most attractive Tesla available.
It is also worth noting that with this model, Tesla has surpassed the Hyundai Ioniq 6 as the electric car with the longest range in the mid-size sedan segment. In 2018, the Model 3 LR RWD was sold for $ 49 thousand, and in 2019 it was relaunched for a few months for $ 43 thousand. However, the 2024 Model 3 LR RWD has a fairly affordable price even without the federal tax credit. The old model had an EPA range of 500 km and Autopilot cost an extra $3k. Now this feature is offered as standard.
While introducing the new Model 3 variant, Tesla also reduced the price of the white interior option to $ 1,000 (except Model 3 Performance). So, now a stylish white interior option has a more affordable price. Tesla’s new Model 3 LR RWD model is quite impressive in terms of both performance and price. It attracts attention with its range, acceleration and affordable price. Well, what do you think? You can share your opinions about this new model of Tesla with us in the comments section below.
