Used 2022 Tesla Model 3 Sedan Trims Comparison
Trim level differences
The Tesla Model 3 is a small all-electric sedan that's available in three trim levels: base, Long Range and Performance. The trio varies by range and acceleration. Take note that Tesla offers rolling updates to its cars rather than by model year, so features and range may differ from what's shown below.
Which Model 3 trim does Edmunds recommend?
We suggest going with the Model 3 Long Range. It comes with all-wheel drive and a very healthy EPA-estimated range of 358 miles, which is more than either of the other two trims. While it's not as quick as the Performance, it's still mighty fun to drive.
