- Tesla is currently accepting orders and deliveries are slated to begin in August or September.
The Tesla Model 3 lineup continues to grow as the company has introduced a new long-range rear-wheel drive variant. It joins the entry-level rear-wheel drive model as well as the performance variant and the existing long-range all-wheel drive sedan.
var adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:[]};
adpushup.que.push(function() {
if (adpushup.config.platform !== “DESKTOP”){
adpushup.triggerAd(“4d84e4c9-9937-4f84-82c0-c94544ee6f2a”);
}
else{
adpushup.triggerAd(“6a782b01-facb-45f3-a88f-ddf1b1f97657”);
} });
Pricing starts at $42,490 before incentives and buyers will find a familiar looking sedan with 363 miles (584 km) of range. That’s 91 miles (146 km) more than the entry-level Model 3 and 22 miles (35 km) more than the long-range all-wheel drive variant. However, if you trade the standard 18-inch wheels for the optional 19-inchers, the range falls to an estimated 322 miles (518 km).

Besides offering the longest range of any Model 3, the long-range rear-wheel drive sedan can accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in 4.9 seconds before hitting a top speed of 125 mph (201 km/h). That’s a vast improvement over the entry-level rear-wheel drive variant, which takes 5.8 seconds to hit 60 mph (96 km/h) but has the same top speed.

});
Unsurprisingly, the car is no match for the all-wheel drive variant. It hits 60 mph (96 km/h) in 4.2 seconds, but is also limited to 125 mph (201 km/h).
Tesla says the Model 3 Long-Range Rear-Wheel Drive is eligible for the $7,500 federal tax credit and this effectively lowers the price to $34,990. If that floats your boat, you can submit an order today and get your car in August or September.
