Tesla is giving its entry level Model 3 sedan a host of enhancements for 2021, including exterior styling elements that have swapped bright chrome for satin black trim. The base model offers up to 263 miles of driving range according to the EPA, and the more expensive Long Range model can go up to 353 per charge. But EV buyers are more likely interested in driving range than speediness or handling, and the Model 3 delivers there too. Acceleration is quick, and the Model 3's chassis is playful as well- especially the Performance model's, which receives a sportier suspension and a track driving mode. It borrows some styling cues from the company's Model S sedan and Model X SUV, but goes its own way with a unique interior design and an all-glass roof. It also earns a spot on our Editors' Choice list. Among the more affordable options in the electric-vehicle marketplace, the 2021 Tesla Model 3 is, without doubt, the one with the most name recognition.
