Tesla has unveiled a new performance variant of its popular Model 3 sedan, boasting significant upgrades in handling, acceleration, and efficiency. Starting at $52,990, the Model 3 Performance features an active damping system and adaptive suspension for improved dynamics, alongside a more powerful drive unit that delivers 510 horsepower. With a 296-mile battery range, the new model can sprint from 0 to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds. Despite its enhanced capabilities, the Model 3 Performance consumes less energy than its predecessor, thanks to a new drive unit, rear diffuser, and spoiler.
