    The 2024 Tesla Model 3 Performance: before you buy

    No 2024 Tesla Model 3 Performance is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Here is the 2024 Tesla Model 3 Performance for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

    Recalls and complaints

    Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.

    The figures, translated

    Its electric motor drives through a 1-speed automatic. Being electric, it is quiet and quick from a stop, and it charges at home, at work or at public chargers. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.

    It uses 18.7 kWh per 100 km, so 300 km takes about 56 kWh of charge. The EPA rates its range at 488 km. Winter cold and fast highway driving cut that down. At our price setting, it costs about $2.81 to drive 100 km. The EPA estimates US$700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

    How big it is

    Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. Its 425 litre trunk is enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.

    Who it is for

    It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.

    Drive it on your own roads

    Try the Model 3 on your commute, then decide. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Model 3 answers the big questions. Rent the Model 3 for a week and see how it fits your life.

    The cost of driving it

    A 1,000 km month costs roughly $28.10 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

    Choosing the right one

    If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Compare the Performance with the other trims of the same year before you decide.
