Tesla’s customer sites in Europe and China list two styles. The rear-wheel drive single-engine style has a range of 513 km for European buyers and 606 km for Chinese buyers. Acceleration in both markets is 6. 1 seconds from 0 to 100 km/h. .
The long-diversity all-wheel drive (AWD) model has a range of 629 km for Europe and 713 km for China, and acceleration in both cases of 4. 4 seconds from 0 to 100 km/h. Autopilot driver assist serves as available in either market. It is reportedly being built at Tesla’s Shanghai factory for sale in Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.
The difference in scope in each is basically due to the way each region conducts its official tests. China’s success figures are sometimes the highest (we would say “optimistic”) compared to European and American and Canadian testing methods. The diversity of both models is an improvement over the old Model 3; Some media reports that this is due to aerodynamic and weight improvements, rather than new battery technology.
These acceleration figures are the same as those of the Model 3 that we have lately in Canada, although the diversity figures are higher than the 438 km evaluated for the single-engine edition and the 534 km for the long diversity edition. The Model 3 Performance is visibly ausente. de the European and Chinese sites, which the Canadian customer site lists as having a top speed of 261 km/h and acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 3. 3 seconds.
Tesla promises that the new Model 3 will be delivered to European and Chinese consumers starting in October 2023. The value in China starts at about 48,600 Canadian dollars. That’s about 12% more than the style it replaces in this market. That’s about $6,400 less than the current value of the Model 3 in Canada, though of course the overall value of the cars depends on their individual markets.
While Tesla hasn’t said anything yet about the updated Model 3 on this side of the ocean, we’ll most likely see something before the end of the year and sales will most likely continue with the first component of 2024.
