Performance

Rear-wheel Drive- According to Elon Musk, a rear wheel drive will boost the cars performance. It will also have a dual motor auto wheel drive that is optional. This will give the car a fast torque synonymous with Tesla drive train.

Mileage- The slowest Model 3 will hit 0 to 60 mph in less than six seconds; which is not slow per say. However, faster versions of the vehicle will be available. Multiple test drives by drivers at the launch event agreed with the car’s technicians that the EV had an upgraded performance package compared to other Tesla models.

The EV’s Low Price and Effect on Sales

Tesla Model 3 is being sold for as low as 30,000 euros. This is relatively cheap compared to the price tag tied to other Tesla models like the Model S that go for over 60,000 euros. However, depending on the user’s preferences, the vehicle may be customised to fit their needs. For example, there is Autonomous software that can to be installed to the vehicle at an extra cost. Tesla is investing heavily into the software to create fully autonomous vehicles.

Another issue set to affect the EV’s price is the supercharging feature. Currently, Tesla boasts of having over 1500 charging stations located in Europe and America. Musk assures Tesla lovers of having this figure tripled by the time the Tesla Model 3 is being released to the market. In addition, the supercharging standards will come specifically designed for Model 3 but they will not be free in the long run.

However, for consumers in the UK, the government assures them of getting a plug in grant for every green car used in their roads. This plays in favor of the consumer hence benefiting many buyers who may buy this car to enjoy this subsidy of £5000.

Potential Drawbacks in Sale of Model 3

Tesla has received deposits of up to $276 million in terms of deposits for this affordable $35,000 EV. It is set to be launched towards the end of 2017 and thereafter released to the US market. After this, other markets like Europe and Asia follow. But, the company is yet to begin the production of this EV because of a number of factors that still hinder the rolling out of the production line. They include:

Incomplete Giga Factory in Nevada- This factory is set to be the base in which the pack of lithium ion batteries and the entire car could be produced and finally fitted into the Tesla Model 3 EV. In addition, the date of completion is still Tesla’s top secret since the construction of the giga factory is set to be finalized in 2016.

Little Time to Rethink the Production Planning- Elon Musk is confident that the Tesla will meet its 2018 production plan of this EV. Although the total sales as per now could be less than the expected 200,000, Elon Musk is still positive that with the extra $276 million in the bank, they can meet this production and surpass this target.

Late Arrivals of Tesla Models- Although the CEO is confident that the car could be available by the end of 2017, the company’s previous EV, Model X, arrived three years behind its arrival schedule due to problems related to the molding of its seats. There are high chances that Model 3 could also face the some technical delays.

Right Hand Drives- Tesla is set to first produce left hand drive EVs for the US and European market. For countries like the UK, this consumer base may have to wait a bit longer till the car rolls out the production plan for right hand drives compatible with driving in this country.

Looks, Size and Stats

The Tesla Model 3 will be similar to the Model S with around a 20% reduction in size. Tesla are estimating that by 2020 they will be selling around 500,000 units. One of the reasons Tesla will be able to produce long range battery packs at affordable prices, is because they have made a $5 billion investment into a brand-new battery Gigafactory which is being built in Nevada USA.

Conclusion

Much more information concerning the car remains Tesla’s top secret. There is still time to come up with better and improved features vital in enhancing the car’s performance in the long run. However, we cannot rule out the fact that Tesla Model 3 is set to face stiff competition from world’s renowned auto makers. This is because, most of this auto firms are working hard to come up with much cheaper and powerful EVs. They include BMW’s i3 Series, Mercedes C-Class and Jaguar’s XE who take up a significant market base in the UK. But what favor’s Tesla is its low price for a full EV not counting the plug in car grant that when factored in reduces the car’s cost while also pricing the car competitively for the UK market.

Ride Review

The exterior look of Model 3 is similar to Tesla Model S. It has a tall roof, a bobbed tail and nose. This is the signature detail of every Tesla car, making it both sporty and stylish in the long run. However, there are a number of factors that have made this car affordable while maintaining the new technology that comes with every Tesla car. They include:

Range

This EV can cover up to 215 miles before the next recharging. The recharge system is made up of standard equipment synonymous with Tesla EVs, where the car can recharge in minutes. In fact, the EV can get a 80% charge in under 30 minutes.

By the time Tesla Model 3 is being released, the firm aims at having tripled the present number of charging stations, located in shopping centres, airports and carparks that will be in partnership with Tesla.

Speed

This makes it’s the best EV for short trips and around-town movement in the long run. Moreover, Elon Musk promised that the company would make faster Model 3 EV before releasing them to the market.

Size and Design

Tesla Model 3 is almost three quarters the size of its predecessor Model S. It has a slopping hatchback roofline, with the wheels sprouting out of the car’s four corners. This gives the car the maximum interior space in the long run. The EVs under floor houses the large battery making the car’s cabin floor thick hence reducing the car’s interior space.

Interior

The car’s cabin is meant for only five passengers. However, the car’s dashboard is bare except for a large touch screen that is landscape oriented unlike the portrait oriented ones in Model X and S. The touch screen is meant to operate the car’s controls and vital information pertaining to the car’s performance. The speedometer read out, is placed on the left hand corner of the dashboard.

Safety Features

The car comes with a self-driving technology, a signature feature in all Tesla models. In addition, an Autonomous Emergency Braking is set to be fitted into the EV although the buyer will have to settle the full installation cost of the Autopilot software. This Autopilot software is set to bring an autonomous driving making Tesla Model 3 a revolutionary EV.

Cost

The reason why this EV is cheap is to make it available for the middle income earners. This is aimed at gaining more customers to purchase this EVs in different countries.
