New Tesla Model 3; features, release date and price
The Tesla Model 3 is a battery electric mid-size sedan with a fastback body style built by Tesla, Inc. since 2017. The Model 3 was marketed as being more affordable to more people than previous models by Tesla. The Model 3 was the world’s top selling plug-in electric car for three years, from 2018 to 2020, before being knocked from the top spot by the Tesla Model Y, a crossover SUV based on the Model 3 chassis. In June 2021, the Model 3 became the first electric car to pass global sales of 1 million. A refresh of the Tesla Model 3 was introduced in 2023, offering a revised exterior and interior. Tesla’s Model 3 isn’t just the American electric car-maker’s cheapest model it’s also one of the world’s best-selling EVs (electric vehicles) at the moment and in 2024 it will be improved with a host of new upgrades, including a fresh look, smarter interior, quieter cabin and more range than before. Features of this new Tesla model 3 are discussed in this article.

FEATURES OF NEW TESLA MODEL 3
Reshaped front end, including these narrower headlight clusters
Doors with improved structural reinforcement to withstand heavier impact. This gives the closing of the doors that more premium ‘clunk’ sound
Rear lights incorporated into the boot lid are now in a boomerang-like C shape
New air curtain chiselled into the reshaped bonnet
Tesla emphasises it ‘stays true to the sleek, uncluttered design aesthetic’ of the original Model 3, though narrower headlight clusters, a sleeker lower bumper and the removal of foglights are the most significant visual changes that both reduce drag – and therefore increase range – and reduces wind noise at a cruising speeds to improve refinement.
