Buy now if:
- Price trend: The 2018 model is at −0.65% versus a year ago.
- Sweet-spot year: The 2022 model has the most listings at a current average price of $25,388.
If you're buying used today, the 2022 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the newest version, it may be worth waiting for 2028 inventory to mature.

Reviewed a 2024 Tesla Model 3 on Apr 6, 2025
I wanted to give it 5 stars, but they took a lot of features out that I really appreciated… For example, in my 2018 model 3 I had premium Wi-Fi that was included as well as Home link… now you have to pay a subscription for these and they took out enhanced auto pilot… Now you have to pay for these features as well. I do, however, appreciate a lot of the upgrades, such as the cool seating, the automatic trunk close, the rear seat screen for passengers, and The upgraded windows that cancel outside noise much better

Overview
The Tesla Model 3 is a small electric vehicle (EV) sedan with good range and performance, and it provides a relatively affordable point of entry to the brand. Its rivals include the Hyundai Ioniq 5, the Kia EV6, and the Ford Mustang Mach-E.
What’s New for the 2024 Tesla Model 3
Though Tesla doesn’t abide by most automakers’ traditional model year schedules, which means changes get rolled out whenever Tesla feels like it, we do have some insight as to what’s to come for the Model 3 electric sedan in 2024. The body and cabin see some design updates, and there are some changes to the powertrain, as well.
Design
The Model 3 is the smaller of Tesla’s two sedans, and it sees some exterior updates for 2024. Most body panels get very minor changes, with the exception of the rear doors and quarter panels, which go unchanged. The front end is updated for a sleeker look, though it's still not too different from before. New taillights complete the subtle overhaul.
Powertrain
Tesla tends to keep quiet about its vehicles' specifications, which makes it difficult to discern changes from year to year. The 2024 Model 3 gets an updated base model, though, with a 60.9-kWh battery pack and a single motor mounted at the rear axle, good for 257 hp to the rear wheels. Dual-motor models will likely carry over with all-wheel drive (AWD), zero-60-mph times ranging from about three to about six seconds, and driving ranges up to about 360 miles.
Interior
Tesla is known for really, really simple interior designs. Whether or not you like accessing all car functions through the touchscreen, there’s no denying that it reduces clutter. The Model 3 seats five passengers on standard heated seats. Front seats are also power-adjustable, and the driver gets a heated steering wheel. Avoid seating taller passengers in the back, if you can, since the sloped roof cuts into headroom. For 2024, Tesla upgrades some interior trim, and the Model 3 gets better-insulated glass.
Technology
We expect the 2024 Tesla Model 3’s tech features to carry over more or less unchanged, except for the addition of some steering-wheel-mounted controls and a new 8-inch display in the back row. Otherwise, we believe the main 15-inch touchscreen will carry over, controlling nearly all vehicle functions through Tesla’s proprietary interface. No Android Auto or Apple CarPlay here, folks.
Safety
The 2023 Tesla Model 3 earned a Top Safety Pick+ award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). That's the organization’s highest recognition, and the Model 3 also achieved top scores of “Good” in its crash testing. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gave the 2023 Model 3 a 5-star overall rating. Neither organization has tested the 2024 model.
Standard safety features include automatic emergency braking, forward collision warnings, cyclist and pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control, parking sensors, automatic high beams, lane-keep assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alerts, and traffic-sign recognition. Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving systems cost more, but keep in mind that neither system fully delivers on the promise of its name.
Pricing
The 2024 Tesla Model 3 in Standard Range configuration is expected to start at about $39,000, which is about in line with 2023 pricing, and it's expected to be available in early 2024. Potential buyers should consult with a tax professional to determine eligibility for state and federal EV tax incentives.
