Tesla continues to make changes to its vehicles tonight on its website configurator. We previously noted Model Y range estimates had changed depending on wheel choice, and now the same has happened for the Model 3 (via @SawyerMerritt).
But for the Model 3, the entry ‘Standard Range Plus’ moniker has been removed, now just known as…Model 3. Also, this entry Model 3 now has a slower 0-60 mph time, going from 5.3 to 5.8 seconds.
Model 3 range estimates have increased slightly, now showing as follows:
- Model 3: 272 miles (was 262) with 18-inch Aero Wheels
- Model 3: 267 miles (was 262) with 19-inch Sport Wheels
- Long Range: 358 (was 353) with 18-inch Aero Wheels
- Long Range: 334 (was 353) with 19-inch Aero Wheels
- Performance: 315 miles (no change)
Tesla’s entry Model 3 is showing an estimated delivery date of September 2022, just like the Model Y, as the automaker faces high demand, a shortage of semiconductor chips and supply chain parts pressures.
