Tesla Model 3 Price & Specs
Tesla Model 3 Overview
The Tesla Model 3 is a mid-size electric sedan and, in updated 'Highland' form, one of Australia's best-selling EVs. The 2026 range spans the LFP-battery RWD (520km), the standout Long Range RWD (up to 750km WLTP, the longest range of any EV on sale in Australia), and the 460kW dual-motor Performance (3.1s 0-100km/h). Strengths are efficiency, range, tech and the Supercharger network; the touchscreen-only interface and firm ride divide opinion.
