AutoExec Summary
A recent leak from South Korea suggests that the upgraded 2024 Tesla Model 3 Performance will offer impressive acceleration levels when it debuts later this year. Twitter (X) user ‘evissacopter’ leaked specs indicating a front motor of 158kW and a more powerful rear motor of 303kW. This suggests the Model 3 Performance could reach up to 461kW. Expect it to exceed the current flagship Model 3’s 393kW/660Nm. The leaked post by the South Korean Ministry of Environment reveals the new rear motor’s peak power at 110km/h, providing more power for high-speed overtakes. The new Model 3 Performance is expected to launch quicker than the current 3.3 seconds from 0-100km/h, with a sub-3.0sec sprint achievable. The updated Model 3 will also feature improved aero, a new operating system, enhanced chassis components, and extra soundproofing for a quieter and more advanced driving experience. The refreshed Model 3 Performance will likely arrive in Australia by the end of the year with a starting price around $85,000.
