The Tesla Model 3 electric car is the cheapest car of the famous company. The manufacturer has prepared a modernized model. It turned out that, in addition to the new design, the inexpensive electric sedan can surprise with an important technological indicator.

InsideEVs reports about the car. It has become known that the new Tesla Model 3 of the 2024 model year has a very aerodynamic body. The coefficient of drag Cd is only 0.219.

This is about 5% better than the pre-restyled car. And this is the most efficient indicator among all Tesla models.

Inside the company, the car is known as Project Highland. But it will go on sale with a simple, well-known name. The exterior will be the first thing to distinguish the new car from the old model. In addition, the design contributed to aerodynamic efficiency.

Changes in the front end are obvious: new horizontal headlights with a simple shape in the style of the older Model S and a different bumper with a neat air intake at the bottom. Behind, there are new lights in the shape of a crab's claw.

The new Tesla Model 3 Standard Range RWD (rear-wheel drive) has a range of 513 km. All-wheel drive Long Range AWD offers 629 km. An upgraded fast charger allows you to replenish 282 km of range in 15 minutes.
