Tesla claims 15 cubic feet of cargo volume, split between trunks in the front (frunk) and rear.

The Model 3 comes standard with a full glass roof and a 15-inch center touchscreen display that controls most of the car’s functions.

This year’s versions are: Standard Range Plus (EPA-rated at 263 miles) starting at $39,990 the Long Range AWD (353 miles) starting at $48,990 and the Performance (315 miles, also AWD) starting at $56,990. Many arrive via over-the-air updates that add new digital features-a feature other carmakers are only now starting to launch-which keep the car ahead of the competition in most aspects.

The Tesla Model 3 is the benchmark for electric cars on range, charging network, performance and over-the-air updates that reduce trips to a Tesla service facility, which is not Tesla’s strong point. As of mid-2021, the Model 3 remains the only compact electric sedan that combines up to 350 miles of range, a ubiquitous fast-charging network, and remarkable performance at prices starting around $40,000. German luxury makers are still scrambling to catch up their Model 3 competitors will launch in 2022 and beyond.
