Used Tesla Model 3 for sale

The Tesla Model 3 is fitted with essential safety technology as standard, including multiple airbags, lane-keeping assistance, blind spot monitoring and automatic emergency braking. Software updates can improve safety over time. The Model 3 regularly scores top marks with Euro NCAP for occupant protection and crash prevention.

The Tesla Model 3 is fully electric – instead of an engine, it has an electric motor and battery pack. You’ll find versions with one or two motors: Standard and Long Range models offer rear- and all-wheel drive, while Performance gets two powerful motors for rapid acceleration. Battery size and power have improved over time, boosting range and performance.

Every Model 3 comes with a large central touchscreen that controls navigation, climate, audio and most driving settings. There’s also smartphone connectivity, heated seats, adaptive cruise control and an excellent sound system. Frequent over-the-air updates mean even used models benefit from the latest features and security improvements.

Being fully electric, the Model 3 doesn’t use fuel. Typical real-world range is between 250 and 360 miles on a single charge, depending on the version and model year. This translates to running costs that are generally lower than petrol or diesel cars, especially when charging at home.

Look for evidence of regular software updates and any warranty remaining. Double-check battery health, high-voltage components and charging port condition. Inspect for any panel gaps or trim issues, as early cars could have inconsistent build. For peace of mind, book The AA Vehicle Inspection to get a comprehensive report before you buy.

The Tesla Model 3 has proven dependable with its simple electric drivetrain and relatively low maintenance needs. Drivers sometimes report minor electric glitches or trim rattles, but major issues are rare. Keeping software up to date, and a good charging routine, helps ensure a hassle-free experience.
