I BOUGHT THE CHEAPEST NEW TESLA ON SALE! DELIVERY OF THE BASE RWD MODEL 3 LFP

EV Channels Review

Dave from Out of Spec Dave takes delivery of the most affordable Tesla, a base rear-wheel-drive Model 3 with an LFP battery. He deliberately opted for the cheapest configuration (white paint, black interior, Aero wheels) to assess Tesla's entry-level offering. While generally pleased with the efficient delivery process and the car's sporty handling, he notes minor fit-and-finish issues with the rear hatch alignment. The reviewer highlights that the car does not come with floor mats or a charging cable, which he found surprising. Despite these points, he praises the Model 3's nimble driving dynamics, ample power for daily use (0-60 in 5.8 seconds), and comfortable interior for a driver of his stature (6'5"). He also confirms the functionality of basic Autopilot (adaptive cruise and auto-steer) without Enhanced features or HW4, finding it sufficient for his needs. Overall, he expresses satisfaction with the purchase, deeming it "a lot of car for the money."
