The 2025 Tesla Model 3 is here, bringing a refined design, better range, and upgraded features to one of the most popular electric sedans on the market. Whether you’re after an efficient daily driver, a long-range cruiser, or a high-performance thrill machine, Tesla has you covered with three configurations: RWD, Long Range AWD, and Performance.
Key Highlights
- Sleeker Design: New headlights, aerodynamic tweaks, and a refined exterior for better efficiency.
- More Comfortable Interior: Upgraded materials, better noise insulation, and a bigger center screen.
- Performance Boost: The Performance model rockets from 0-60 mph in just 3.1 seconds.
- Extended Range: Efficiency improvements mean more miles per charge across all trims.
Tesla Model 3 Exterior & Design
Tesla has given the Model 3 a facelift, making it sleeker and more aerodynamic. The slimmer LED headlights and redesigned front bumper help reduce drag, which translates to better efficiency. Standard 18-inch alloy wheels keep things stylish, with optional 19- or 20-inch wheels for those who want a sportier look.
Another big improvement? Quieter rides. Tesla has upgraded the glass for better insulation, cutting down on road noise—something previous Model 3 owners have been asking for.
Interior Upgrades
Step inside, and you’ll notice the difference. Premium materials, a more minimalist dashboard, and extra comfort in the rear seats make the 2025 Tesla Model 3 feel more upscale. The 15.4-inch touchscreen is now faster and more responsive, and rear passengers get their own display for climate control and entertainment.
Other interior highlights include:
- Heated and ventilated seats (front and rear).
- Dual-zone climate control with automatic rear adjustments.
- Wireless charging pads and USB-C ports for every passenger.
Performance & Power
Three versions of the Tesla Model 3 cater to different driving styles:
- RWD: Ideal for city driving, offering 283 hp and an EPA-estimated 272-mile range.
- Long Range AWD: The best mix of power and efficiency, with 425 hp, a 384-mile range, and a 0-60 mph time of 4.2 seconds.
- Performance: Built for speed, featuring 518 hp, a 315-mile range, and 0-60 mph in just 3.1 seconds.
Charging & Efficiency
Charging is where Tesla shines, and the 2025 Model 3 continues that tradition. With access to Tesla’s vast Supercharger network, fast charging is quick and convenient:
- RWD: Gains 170 miles in 15 minutes on a 250 kW Supercharger.
- Long Range AWD & Performance: Add up to 200 miles in 15 minutes.
For home charging, the 11.5 kW onboard charger ensures overnight charging is easy, taking between 6-11 hours depending on the battery size.
Autonomy & Safety
The 2025 Tesla Model 3 comes standard with Tesla’s Autopilot, with the option to upgrade to Full Self-Driving (FSD). Safety features include:
- Adaptive cruise control
- Lane-keeping assist
- Blind-spot monitoring
- Autonomous emergency braking
If you opt for FSD, you’ll get additional perks like automatic lane changes, traffic light recognition, and hands-free city driving (as updates roll out).
