Boasting an impressive driving experience, stylish design and a one-of-a-kind interior, the Model 3 Standard Plus from Tesla is an EV that stands out from the crowd.
With expert insight from Cheltenham-based specialist Cleevely EV, SoGlos explores the car's key stats and best features inside and out in the latest instalment of our Gloucestershire EV of the month series.
Key stats
The Tesla Model 3 boasts good efficiency, with a range of 170 to 200 miles on a single charge.
And as a Tesla car, it has full compatibility with the company's Supercharger network, which can recharge its battery for up to 172 miles in 15 minutes.
Interior features
The interior of the Model 3 has a truly unique feel, with everything controlled from a single, 15-inch centre touch screen — including heating, air conditioning and headlights, along with secondary features like navigation and media.
It's also built for passenger comfort with its leather interior and heated front seats; USB ports and wireless charging; and the ability to control things like locking and climate from an app on your phone, with key features for drivers including voice activated controls; adaptive cruise control; steering wheel mounted controls; and electrically adjustable driver and passenger seats.
Exterior features
Drivers are given a helping hand to take good care of the Model 3's exterior with a rear parking camera and front and rear parking sensors, along with electric folding wing mirrors.
It also has a stylish exterior design with an eye-catching pearlescent paint job, as well as 18-inch alloy wheels with aero caps, which improve the car's efficiency. And with its battery positioned in the floor, there's plenty of space for luggage in its large boot and charging cables under the bonnet, too.
SoGlos loves
Creating a roomy feel and offering fantastic views from inside the car, one of the best features of the Model 3 is its show-stopping tinted glass roof.
This unique feature allows passengers to take in 360-degree views of the sky while avoiding the negative effects of the sun's rays, thanks to UV and infrared protective glass.
The Tesla Model 3 Standard Plus is available at Cheltenham's Cleevely EV, with prices starting at £17,995.
