The eagerly anticipated Tesla Model 3 Performance is on the verge of its official launch, with the latest video providing a glimpse of what to expect. The refreshed Model 3 Performance has been spotted multiple times in the US and Europe, generating excitement among Tesla fans. In a new high-resolution video shot in Santa Monica, courtesy of X user JeffTutorials, the latest version of the electric sports sedan reveals its striking features.
The video showcases the new sports seats, a carbon fiber rear spoiler, and large wheels that conceal upgraded brakes. The vehicle sits lower to the ground thanks to the new and improved suspension. The eye-catching ultra-red Model 3 also features a distinctive front bumper with prominent side air intakes.
Reports suggest the Model 3 Performance will boast the most potent powertrain yet, with an estimated 0-60 mph acceleration time of just 2.9 seconds. The car’s combined output could exceed 500 horsepower, marking a significant leap over the previous iteration. An advanced front motor rated at 201 hp and an updated rear motor delivering 406 hp further enhance performance.
Tesla’s in-house software will manage the adaptive suspension, ensuring a smooth ride and responsive handling when required. The new version 3 of Track Mode software allows drivers to fine-tune settings such as handling balance, stability control, and regenerative braking.
The refreshed Model 3 Performance features improved braking performance, redesigned lightweight wheels for better handling, and new front and rear bumpers, along with a rear diffuser. A carbon fiber spoiler rounds out the visual transformation.
While official pricing and specifications have yet to be revealed, the imminent launch is anticipated. Tesla is set to announce its latest financial results, and the introduction of the fastest Model 3 could provide a timely boost.
