How powerful is it? How fast does it accelerate?

The Tesla Model 3 Mid Range (2018-2020) is equipped with a powertrain that delivers up to 202 kW (271 hp) of power and 298 lb-ft of torque.

This enables a 0 to 60 mph acceleration in 5.2 seconds (ranked №248 out of 693 electric vehicles) and a top speed of 140 mph.

How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range?

Real-world range of the Tesla Model 3 Mid Range (2018-2020) is 228–278 miles (ranked №310 out of 693 electric vehicles) — depending on several factors, including:

Speed: Higher speeds deplete the battery faster.
Temperature: Extreme cold and hot weather impacts range.
Terrain: Hilly or mountainous terrain reduces range.
Driving style: Aggressive driving with frequent acceleration and braking consumes more energy.
Use of features: Features like climate control and media system also affect range.

It's important to remember that these are just estimates, and your actual range may vary. It's always best to factor in these various factors when planning your trip and be prepared for potential charging stops.

Plan your trips using the EV Navigation interactive map.

What charging options are available? How long does it take to charge it?

The Tesla Model 3 Mid Range (2018-2020) in the USA is equipped with a Tesla (NACS) charging port.
