2022 Tesla Model 3 Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Write a review
The Tesla Model 3 is a fully electric premium sedan with seating for five passengers. The Model 3 represents the entry point to the brand’s portfolio, with a relatively competitive price compared to other Tesla models. The Model 3 is known for standout performance without compromising efficiency, though its build quality is inconsistent at times. Rivals to the Tesla Model 3 include the Polestar 2, the Kia EV6, the Ford Mustang Mach-E, the Mercedes-Benz EQS, and the larger and more expensive Tesla Model S. Though some of those competitors are not from luxury brands, many mainstream manufacturers have elevated their electric vehicle (EV) offerings and come close to some luxury vehicles in terms of pricing.
The 2022 Model 3 gets a renamed base trim as well as increased range with some models, but otherwise carries over unchanged. The 2022 lineup consists of Rear-Wheel Drive (formerly known as Standard Range Plus), Long Range, and Performance models. The standard and optional features are pretty consistent across the Model 3 lineup, with the main differences in models found in efficiency and performance.
The Rear-Wheel Drive model features a single electric motor on the rear axle, powering its rear-wheel drive (RWD). It’s good for 272 miles of range, and it can accelerate to 60 mph in 5.8 seconds. It also has the best EPA ratings in the lineup, at 138 miles per gallon of gasoline equivalent (MPGe) city and 126 MPGe highway. The Long Range and Performance models have a motor on each axle for all-wheel drive (AWD). The Long Range’s larger battery provides up to 353 miles of range and a 4.2-second zero-to-60-mph run. The Performance model hits the 60-mph mark in 3.1 seconds, which is incredibly quick, though that means its range drops to 315 miles—still really good. The Performance model also has a top speed of 162 mph, about 15-20 mph faster than the other two trims. A single-speed transmission comes with every model.
Standard features across the lineup include synthetic leather upholstery, a panoramic glass roof, heated front seats, wireless phone charging, power-folding side mirrors, and 18-inch alloy wheels. The infotainment system, which controls nearly all of the car’s functions, is housed in a 15-inch tablet-like touchscreen display. Keep in mind that Tesla does not offer Apple CarPlay or Android Auto compatibility. Long Range and Performance models add on heated rear seats and LED fog lamps.
The Tesla Model 3 earns good crash test scores from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The IIHS awarded the 2022 Model 3 a Top Safety Pick+ rating, and the NHTSA awarded an overall safety rating of five stars out of five.
Every Model 3 gets Tesla’s Autopilot system of bundled safety technology, featuring automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, lane-departure warning, lane-keep assist, adaptive cruise control, and automated lane centering. Tesla’s so-called Full Self-Driving is optional and adds the ability to navigate highway interchanges and ramps, change lanes, parallel and perpendicular park, follow traffic signals, and be called from a parking spot with the Summon feature.
Though the Tesla Model 3 sees tough competition from new EV sedans and hatchbacks, both from luxury and mainstream brands, it’s one of the most recognizable vehicles in its segment and offers a compelling combination of performance and efficiency.

The pre-owned 2022 Tesla M3 is a great buy. I am better off than my previous 2019 Tesla by 3 years younger, 20,000 Km less and extended the warranty period. The car was loaded with more features and I paid no PST because it is used EV . It is worth the costs.Jun 28, 2024

This is my first EV and its a whole new experience driving one, so far I am very happy with the purchase because I truly feel like driving a luxury car that is stylish and aerodynamic on the outside and interior. The instant torque is insane, super fast and quiet. The leather seats are very comfortable. One of my favorite features is the console with that touchscreen display; the design is simple and clean and yet it is loaded with lots of multi media apps which is super convenient. The fact that the touchscreen is responsible for all of the vehicles controls is something that I need to get used to. Also, the standard safety feature and the auto pilot are the main reason that I wanted to purchase this vehicle.May 23, 2024

The 2022 Tesla long range is very easy to drive it certainly has some zip to it.
My husband describes it as an iPad on wheels and I must agree. And Tesla support has been amazing.Apr 12, 2024

Very modern and simplistic. Super great to watch movies in with family and friends! The only downside is having to sit somewhere to charge it for a bit however it’s a trade off since you’re not having to maintain it like a regular car you would/spend as much on gas!Apr 09, 2024

I was very impressed with the two Model 3s I drove- the base model and the dual motor version. One thing I wish the Model 3 had is a center screen . Sep 20, 2023

The car was fine. The fact that new Teslas qualify for Federal tax credit and rebates from the state for new vehicles made it very unlikely we will buy a used car which would need to be deeply discounted to compete.Jul 09, 2023

The Tesla Model 3 is the perfect vehicle for the price. If you were to purchase this Model 3 from Tesla directly, youd pay close to $71,000. The color. blue is priced $1500 extra on theTesla website. The Enhaced self driving is $6000.00 on the Tesla site. The price of this Tesla is outstanding. Dec 04, 2022

The competition does not come anywhere close to the Tesla Model 3. Most EVs have very confusing controls and infotainment screens that are not intuitive. Teslas design is simple and easy to understand and its range is far better, especially with the dual motor long range. Nothing else comes close.Jul 12, 2022

Cons : Overpriced. False claimed mile range , Costly supercharging it . Noise internal cabin on the highway . Distracting driving experience because that you have to use the touch screen to control the car even for the wipers . Small mirror not comfortable with the car size making it hard to Parallel parking. May 01, 2022
