While the Tesla Model 3 isn't available for CEO Elon Musk's promised $35,000, and it never really was for more than a minute, it's cheaper than ever today when accounting for inflation. For this reason, many people who may not have been able to afford a Tesla may now be in the market. So, how can you decide if the cheapest Tesla will work for you?
Talking to Tesla owners, as well as owners of rival EVs, is arguably a good start. People who have owned an electric car for a time may have more insight than what you'll find in a generic online review. Chances are, if you talk to a handful of owners, you'll get some valuable details about both pros and cons of owning an EV.
