- The Tesla Model 3 Standard arrives with fabric seats, 321 miles of range and rear-wheel drive.
- It’s set to cost $36,990, making it one of the most affordable cars Tesla has ever sold, and the cheapest in 2025.
- It would have been a better deal with EV tax credits, but it’s still not bad.
Tesla pulled a fast one on us. While spy shots confirmed a cheaper Tesla Model Y Standard was on its way, it turns out that teaser image for a black, fan-shaped wheel wasn’t for anything we quite expected. It was for the most affordable version of the updated Tesla Model 3 we’ve seen yet: meet the aptly named Tesla Model 3 Standard.

The sedan went live on Tesla’s United States model configurator this afternoon, and it finally brings the “Highland” Model 3 into the $30,000 range. It’s priced at $36,990 before any state incentives (should your state offer them) and promises up to 321 miles of range, rear-wheel drive, fabric seats and a few less creature comforts than other Model 3 trim levels.
