The Tesla Model 3 has become an exceptional value proposition in the used car market, with prices now starting below £15,000 - representing a 65% saving over new prices.

As one of the most technologically advanced electric vehicles, the Model 3 continues to feel modern despite being six years old. The 2019 Standard Range model, available around £15,000, offers impressive features and capabilities:

• Claimed range of 278 miles (still achievable even in high-mileage examples)
• Access to Tesla's reliable Supercharger network
• Autopilot adaptive cruise control with lane-keeping
• Minimalist, tech-focused interior design
• Strong reliability record, even in high-mileage cases

For those seeking more performance, the £20,000 price point unlocks the Performance version, featuring:

• 0-60mph in 5.3 seconds
• 300+ mile range
• Enhanced driving dynamics

The interior remains modern and functional, though some may need time to adjust to the button-free layout. While build quality doesn't quite match premium German competitors like the BMW i4, long-term durability has proven strong, with examples covering 170,000+ miles showing good reliability.

The combination of long range, advanced technology, and now attractive used pricing makes the Tesla Model 3 a compelling option for those seeking a premium electric vehicle without the premium price tag.
