Tesla Model 3

Standard Range Plus LFP (2021)

The China-built Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus LFP used just 118 Wh/km at 90 km/h in the summer test, one of the lowest figures recorded. That gave 443 km, 8% more than its WLTP range, and in winter at around 1 °C it still went 346 km. The video shows signs of a sizeable energy buffer below 0%, and the LFP pack charged at about 100 kW up to around 50%, a much flatter curve than the US-built car. It also felt quieter than a 2019 Model 3 and earned a strong recommendation.
