An electric car for every budget - Tesla 3

The era of combustion engines is slowly coming to an end. Car manufacturers are increasingly eager to introduce electric cars and hybrids to their offerings. For now, due to their price and the still limited number of fast-charging stations, hybrids are more popular. However, all signs point to the near future, cars that emit zero pollutants will take over the road.

For those interested in the automotive industry, the phrase "electric car" is primarily associated with the Tesla brand , as it is the pioneer and most dynamically developing company in this technology. The first model introduced into mass production appeared in 2008 and was called the Tesla Roadster . However, due to its high price, dictated in part by the use of high-end materials (including a carbon fiber body), few customers chose to purchase it. Subsequent models were also aimed at drivers with larger budgets, until finally, in 2016, news of a new car model called the Tesla 3 emerged. Interested parties waited a long time for the official unveiling, and immediately after its premiere, over 100,000 orders were placed. The first customers received their cars at the end of 2017, and the growing number of orders exceeded the company's expectations and targets.

The Tesla Model 3 is classified as a mid-range liftback. Its aerodynamic silhouette, modern headlights, lack of a classic front grille, and sleek roofline, forming a uniform arc from the front hood to the rear trunk lid, catch the eye of every passerby. Besides looking great, the car is capable of generating a lot of excitement while driving. Acceleration to 100 km/h in around 6 seconds effectively pushes you back into your seat, while a top speed of 230 km/h (140 mph) is sure to satisfy those who enjoy setting the fastest laps on their daily routes. The interior has probably reached its "maximum minimum," as the cockpit itself is limited to the steering wheel in front of the driver and a massive 15-inch screen in the center. Otherwise, the entire space is clean and uncluttered, with no bulges, creases, or unnecessary nooks and crannies. Does the overall impression make a good impression? Fans of futuristic looks will certainly appreciate it. However, a car without clocks and even a single knob can cause the driver to lose the sense of connection with the vehicle, and the journey can become monotonous.

The Tesla 3 is undoubtedly a unique car. Its environmentally friendly features and very low travel costs, combined with a purchase price similar to the competition (around $35,000), are a tempting proposition. The high level of customer interest suggests that the waft of exhaust fumes from the pleasantly purring V8 engine will soon be replaced by the fresh air of an electric vehicle. It's safe to say that the Tesla 3, with its modern design and excellent performance, can effectively mitigate the clash between the world of electric vehicles and fans of classic combustion engines.
