Why Tesla doesn t sell Model 3 long range? ›

The halt in Model 3 Long Range production came after Tesla CEO Elon Musk warned about potential order freezes due to a sharp increase in demand for electric cars in several regions of the United States. Musk had stated that once Tesla increased production, the model variant would return to the market.

The central difference between the standard and Long Range versions of the Model 3 is the latter's second electric motor, which drives the front wheels. Equipped with standard all-wheel drive, the Tesla Model 3 Long Range Dual Motor produces a combined output of 394 hp and 377 lb-ft of torque.

What Tesla Says About Battery Lifespan. According to Tesla's 2021 impact report, its batteries are designed to last the life of the vehicle, which the company estimates as roughly 200,000 miles in the U.S. and 150,000 miles in Europe.

It is normal for estimated range to decrease slightly over the first few months before leveling off. Over time, you may see a gradual, but natural, decrease in range at full charge – this depends on factors such as Supercharging regularly or the mileage and age of the battery.

Out of all the Tesla models and trim levels, the Model S has the longest range. Throughout the years, Tesla has released different range variants and trims for almost every electric car it offers. Currently, the 2023 Tesla Model S is the top dog, giving owners 405 miles on a single charge.

Estimates suggest that the batteries for the Model S cost between $12,000 and $15,000. After labor charges, the total repair cost is about $20,000 to $22,000. For the Model 3, the replacement cost around $15,799.27, with the battery alone costing over $13,500 and labor costing $2,299.27.

Performance & drive

The four-wheel-drive Long Range version benefits from two electric motors rather than one, so it's even quicker. It'll officially accelerate from 0-60mph in just 4.2 seconds, making it just as quick as a Porsche 911 Carrera 4 and slightly faster than the Polestar 2 Long Range Dual Motor.

Real Range Estimation between 225 - 445 mi

Indication of real-world range in several situations. Cold weather: 'worst-case' based on -10°C and use of heating. Mild weather: 'best-case' based on 23°C and no use of A/C. For 'Highway' figures a constant speed of 70 mph is assumed.

Which Model 3 has the longest range? ›

Three distinct Model 3 trims are offered, each with a different estimated driving range. The base rear-wheel-drive model is the most affordable, with a claimed range of 272 miles. Upgrading to the Long Range model increases the Model 3's estimated range to 341 miles.

Available powertrains: dual motors, 341 miles of range, a top speed of 145 mph and a zero-to-60 time of 4.2 seconds (Long Range) dual motors, 315 miles of range, a top speed of 162 mph and a zero-to-60 time of 3.1 seconds (Performance)

However, J.D. Power says, Tesla's batteries tend to degrade to the extent of about 1% of range per year, which means the batteries retain 90% of their capacity after 10 years on the road; that is well within expectations for the industry.

According to Tesla CEO Elon Musk, Tesla car batteries are supposed to last around 300,000 to 500,000 miles or about 1,500 times of charging and discharging.

The Model 3 Long Range is one of Tesla's most popular vehicles. Based on Musk's warning, it's likely that the automaker now has a large enough backlog for the model that it doesn't make sense to take more orders until it can work through it. Tesla has also removed the pricing of the vehicle for now.

What versions of the 2024 Tesla Model 3 are available? There are two variants of the updated Model 3 on sale in 2024: the regular, rear-drive Model 3, plus the all-wheel-drive Dual Motor version called the Long Range.

Other than the obvious, there are no noticeable differences between the two models. The long range has more speakers, but I didn't really notice the difference in casual listening. Perhaps an audiophile might. They both have the same exterior, nearly the same interior, the same seats and the same display.

How much is the Tesla Model 3? The Tesla Model 3 has a RRP range of £39,990 to £59,990. Prices start at £39,990 if paying cash. Monthly payments start at £495.
