Tesla Model 3 (2019-2023)
Tesla Model 3 Long Range Dual Motor
The Tesla Model 3 Long Range Dual Motor ranks among the cheapest EVs to run, about 1.7p a mile on an off-peak tariff, about £1,914 a year less than a petrol equivalent.
By eight years on the road it should still hold about 85% of its battery health, roughly 385 km of real-world range, which is a useful yardstick if you’re buying used. What owners say: Exceptional acceleration and immediate torque response deliver an enjoyable, engaging driving experience comparable with sports cars. Firm suspension transmits road defects harshly, creating particular discomfort over UK potholes and rough surfaces; larger wheel sizes make this worse.

What Owners Say
PositiveOwners Love
- Exceptional acceleration and immediate torque response deliver an enjoyable, engaging driving experience comparable with sports cars
- Excellent efficiency keeps running costs low: approximately 1.5-2.2p per mile with home charging versus £16-18p per mile for equivalent petrol cars
- Maintenance requirements are minimal, with no oil changes, brake pads that last well thanks to regenerative braking, and strong battery longevity (minimal degradation over 100k+ miles)
Watch Out For
- Firm suspension transmits road defects harshly, creating particular discomfort over UK potholes and rough surfaces; larger wheel sizes make this worse
- Inconsistent build quality includes panel gaps, misaligned doors/boot, soft paint susceptible to stone chips and variation in quality between individual cars
- Documented Autopilot reliability problems include phantom braking, unreliable high-beam assistance and steering corrections that are occasionally dangerous
Owner Tips
- Prioritise Chinese-built cars from 2021 onwards (VIN starting LRW, 71 plates) rather than US-made Fremont examples for noticeably better build quality and features such as heat pumps
- Choose 18-inch wheels with softer-sidewall tyres to improve ride comfort on UK roads; avoid 20-inch Performance wheels, which bend easily and make the ride harsher
- For daily driving, charge only to 80% and use cheap overnight electricity tariffs (7.5p/kWh via Octopus Intelligent) to keep running costs to a minimum

Detailed degradation forecast
After 3 years, the Tesla Model 3 Long Range Dual Motor is estimated to retain around 93.4% battery health, giving a real-world range of approximately 297 miles in summer and 220 miles in winter. After 5 years, the Tesla Model 3 Long Range Dual Motor is estimated to retain around 90.2% battery health, giving a real-world range of approximately 287 miles in summer and 213 miles in winter. After 8 years, the Tesla Model 3 Long Range Dual Motor is estimated to retain around 85.4% battery health, giving a real-world range of approximately 272 miles in summer and 201 miles in winter. The battery is covered by a 8-year warranty or 193,000 km, whichever comes first. This car uses a Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) battery. For best longevity, charge to 80-90% for daily use.
