Overview

The Tesla Model 3 can be compared both to compact luxury sedans such as the BMW 3-series and the Audi A4. It can also be compared to fully electric vehicles such as the Nissan LEAF and the Volkswagen e-Golf. The Tesla offers excellent power and handling as well as ultra-modern styling, however the Tesla has a starting price lower than the BMW and the Audi. Compared to the LEAF and Volkswagen, the Tesla offers greater range and a stronger technology suite as well as better performance. Pricing is roughly equivalent to those two compact electric vehicles.Buyers in the United States can expect to take advantage of tax credits designed to incentivize the purchase of an electric car. The remarkable battery-only drivetrain of the Model 3 means there's very little difference between a gasoline-powered car and an all-electric one. With all the performance, technology and ease of use one would expect from a car in this class.
