Tesla’s Model 3 has played a pivotal role in bringing electric cars into the mainstream, combining long range, strong performance and advanced software in a relatively accessible package. In fact, it’s been consistently known as the electric car that other EVs are judged by.
Now the firm is doubling down on that mission with the introduction of the Model 3 Rear Wheel Drive, positioned as the most affordable Tesla available in the UK and aimed at expanding EV adoption even more. When it was launched, this Rear Wheel Drive was called the Model 3 Standard. But in true Tesla fashion, a quick change meant the Standard name was dropped and it became known as Rear Wheel Drive. Tesla says there’s nothing standard about its cars – and I’d tend to agree.
