Model 3 Standard Range Plus (PANA 2170L)

The Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus (PANA 2170L) is a 5-seat saloon with rear-wheel drive, sold new in 2021, when it cost £40,990 in the UK, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 5.6 seconds, quicker than 62% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 217 miles (350 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 32% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 47th of 48 saloons.

It uses around 4.3 mi/kWh (146 Wh/km), more efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 51 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 87 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 256 miles (412 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L).

Second-hand, a 2021 example is estimated at £11,300–£13,900, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2021 car should still manage about 196 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
