Summary
The Tesla Model 3 Performance is a 5-seat saloon with all-wheel drive, sold new from 2019 to 2020, when it cost £56,490 in the UK, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 3.7 seconds, quicker than 90% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 273 miles (440 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 56% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 42nd of 48 saloons.
It uses around 3.7 mi/kWh (167 Wh/km), more efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 73.5 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 136 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 328 miles (528 km) at motorway speeds.
No heat pump is listed for this version, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L).
Second-hand, a 2019 example is estimated at £11,200–£15,600 and a 2020 one at £13,200–£17,300, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2019 car should still manage about 237 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
