Standard Range Plus (2021)

The 2021 Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus used just 128 Wh/km at 90 km/h in the test, one of the most efficient results in the database. That gave 398 km of range, and at 120 km/h it was again among the most efficient cars, with 296 km. In the video it was only 10 to 12 °C; usable energy came to 50.9 kWh, and falling short of the WLTP range was a slight disappointment. Its only real weakness seems to be cabin noise, and with towing ability, fast charging and a superb sound system it counts as a bargain.
