Tesla Model 3 EV Leaked: Now You See It

Tesla Model 3 leak

-

Can't wait for Tesla to officially reveal its all-new Model 3 this evening? Here's a preview: a photo on Instagram that seems to show this hugely important EV. While the image is blurry, it's clear that the Model 3 will occupy a sort of middle ground between the sleek Model S hatchback and the taller Model X crossover.

Tesla won't pull the covers off the Model 3 until late tonight, but we have heard some tidbits about this new model. It's rumored to have a starting cost around $35,000 before tax benefits, a bargain compared with the $71,200–$109,200 Model S and the $81,200–$116,700 Model X. Range estimates sit at roughly 200 miles as standard equipment, with a possible 80-kWh battery upgrade potentially increasing that number to 300 miles.

Die-hard Tesla fanatics have been lining up to put deposits down for a Model 3 before the pre-ordering process opens up online tonight, and current Tesla owners get priority for reservations. Barring any delays (which Tesla has plenty of experience with), deliveries of the Model 3 are scheduled for late 2017. Stay tuned for full info when the Model 3 is unveiled tonight at 8:30 p.m. Pacific time.
