Superb is not enough to describe this car, very well put together, comfortable seats all round, fantastic to drive, performance to rival the very best of other cars, battery range is again best in a range of other ev,s. No ICE cars can beat this real pocket rocket.

Car is easy to drive and has a really good basic autopilot mode. Stereo is excellent and with connectivity on monthly subscription Spotify can be accessed. Reversing takes a bit of getting used to but sensors and camera help. USB Samsung drive bought for data storage of sentry mode. Needs to be formatted first but live sentry mode is good if you are worried about parking somewhere dubious. Drains about 6-9 miles for overnight. I have not driven any other model of Tesla but will buy accessories for boot and floor mats in due course. Handles well and acceleration is second to none. Very important to get it connected to WiFi as soon as purchased otherwise you cannot add payment method, identity and updates. I bought a small WiFi booster for my house for this. connection of car to phone makes access easier than card.

Very well put together, High quality seats and door surrounds, exceptionly good carpets, Quiet when driving, its only tyre noise one can hear. Tesla have gone over the top on the electrics, the power of these batteries and drive units really do outpace all other cars, and so easy to charge, advice is to get on the Economy 7 tariff it really does make for the lowest cost per mile driving.

Tesla Model 3 (2018-present) Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Affordable to buy for a premium electric car | A little cramped in the back and boot |
| Brilliant Tesla Supercharger network | No head-up display |
| Even better to drive since 2024 update | Latest version lacks physical stalks for major driving controls |
Quick Summary
The Tesla Model 3 is a pure-electric alternative to the BMW 3 Series and rivals the Polestar 2, BMW i4, and Hyundai Ioniq 6. First launched in 2018, it received a significant update in 2024 that increased official WLTP driving range to between 344 and 421 miles. The 2024 model features a startlingly minimal interior with indicator controls as buttons on the steering wheel and drive/park/reverse functions controlled via the touchscreen. It's compatible with Type 2 and CCS sockets, allowing charging at the vast majority of public chargers, including Tesla's excellent Supercharger network. Both the Rear-Wheel Drive and Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive models charge rapidly, managing a 100-mile top-up in 10 to 15 minutes at fast charging stations.
The Model 3 offers adequate practicality with comfortable front seating and a low-set driver's seat, though rear passenger space is somewhat cramped by class standards. The boot is on the small side, even combined with the extra cubby where the engine would normally be. Since the 2024 update, the Model 3 is more entertaining to drive whilst maintaining excellent ride comfort, with good refinement and tyre/wind-noise control. It's one of the cheapest premium electric cars to buy and run, with finance deals typically cheaper than comparable rivals. Insurance costs are high, falling into groups 48-50, and the car is free of Vehicle Excise Duty with free London Congestion Zone entry until the end of 2025.
Best for: Budget-conscious buyers seeking a premium electric car, those valuing efficiency and advanced semi-autonomous driving aids, and drivers with access to home charging and the Tesla Supercharger network.
Not ideal for: Drivers who prefer physical buttons and stalks, those seeking a more engaging driving experience, buyers prioritising rear passenger space or boot capacity, or those wanting a head-up display as standard.
Comparison vs Key Rivals
| Vehicle | CarGurus Expert Rating | CarGurus User Rating | Good/Great deals % | Overall CarGurus Rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tesla Model 3 | 5/5 | 4.2/5 | 23.1% | 4.3/5 |
| BMW i4 | 5/5 | N/A | 51.4% | 4.0/5 |
| Polestar 2 | 4/5 | 5.0/5 | 30.3% | 4.2/5 |
| Hyundai Ioniq 6 | 4/5 | 4.8/5 | 33.2% | 4.4/5 |
The Verdict
You should buy the Model 3 if: You're seeking an affordable premium electric car, value efficiency and advanced semi-autonomous driving aids, and have access to home charging and the Tesla Supercharger network.
Consider alternatives if: You prefer physical buttons and stalks, want a more engaging driving experience, prioritise rear passenger space or boot capacity, or require a head-up display as standard.
Competitive Position: The Tesla Model 3 is one of the very best premium electric cars on the market, balancing price, driving range, and ownership experience exceptionally well. Whilst it's not without faults—many drivers find the lack of physical controls off-putting, and those seeking a more fun drive or stylish appearance may prefer the BMW i4 or Polestar 2—the Model 3 remains remarkable for its efficiency, semi-autonomous driving standards, and affordability compared to close rivals. Whether buying new or used, it promises an excellent ownership experience.
