Tesla Model 3
The Model 3 became Tesla’s first high-volume car and now ranks as the best-selling EV in the world. Single-motor RWD and dual-motor AWD configurations are available. If you like speed, don’t miss the Performance model that can sprint from 0-100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds. Select Model 3 variants are eligible to rebates from the government. Watch out for prices, though, because Tesla tends to make occasional adjustments.
