Tesla Model 3 Performance: what you need to know
Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.
Where does the Model 3 Performance rank in its segment?
Among the 8 saloons electric 2019–2023, the Model 3 Performance ranks 3rd of 7 in WLTP range (547 km, behind the Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD), 4th of 5 in DC charge power (250 kW, behind the Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD), 2nd of 8 in 0–100 km/h (3.3 s, behind the Tesla Model 3 Performance).
What is the WLTP range of the Model 3 Performance?
547 km WLTP announced - making it the 3rd of 7 in WLTP range out of 7 models. The reference is the Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD (629 km).
How much does the Model 3 Performance cost to run?
Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.
Why not a Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD instead?
The Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD leads in WLTP range (629 km vs 547 km). The choice depends on your priorities: check the Model 3 Performance vs Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD duel for a detailed comparison.
How does Caralogy calculate its figures?
Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
