The Model 3 Standard becomes the most affordable Tesla ever sold in France. Discount car or accessible Tesla?
The Tesla Model 3 Standard has just arrived in France and makes a strong impact. It is now the most affordable Tesla ever offered in the Hexagon. With a price of 36,990 euros, it is significantly lower than the other versions and could attract those who found Teslas too expensive until now.
So, what do we find behind this low price? The Model 3 Standard keeps the essentials of what made the sedan successful: the design remains true to the range, the panoramic roof is still there, and the 15.4-inch touchscreen continues to dominate the interior. Games, route planning, Sentry Mode, and Dog Mode, everything is there. But some choices are simpler: 18-inch Prismata wheels, fabric seats, reduced lighting, and a color palette limited to three shades: white, black, or gray. It is clear that Tesla had to make compromises to keep this price point.
A more than decent copy
On the technical side, no unpleasant surprises. The Model 3 Standard claims a WLTP range of 534 km, a reasonable consumption of 13 kWh/100 km, and a 0 to 100 km/h in 6.2 seconds. For daily use, this is more than enough. And, of course, it remains compatible with the European Supercharger network and benefits from the famous over-the-air updates, which continue to make the car smarter over time.
Tesla has not sacrificed the essentials: remote access via the app, USB-C ports in the front and rear, electric tailgate, generous trunk space (up to 1,659 liters once the rear seats are folded) and an 88-liter frunk. Enough to transport family, groceries, and luggage without worry.
