The facelifted '24 Model 3 Performance features fully revised suspension, with not a single shared component with the regular Model 3 Long Range. It features real-time adaptive shocks, for the first time on a 3, that adjust continually (in a combined compression/rebound adjustment.)
The New M3P's interior features real (excellent) sport seats, a carbon-fiber "blade" on the dashboard, and an adjustable track mode that allows full control of handling balance.
The exterior gets unique front fascia with an air dam, a rear spoiler and diffuser, and forged, staggered wheels.
Weight is the same as the outgoing car, at 4055 lb. Range should increase 2-3% in the real world versus the previous car. Pricing will be less than $60,000.
Model 3 Performance's output is 510 hp and 547 lb-ft, and it comes with additional rear bias thanks to the more powerful 4th-generation rear motor. The last car would put 60 to 70% power to the rear, the new one is capable of sending 70 to 85% power to the rear at most times.
The inverter can now handle 950 amps, up from the previous 830A, and the battery is now the limiting factor in output.
The new Performance logo looks similar to the Plaid badge, but isn't — that will be held for 3-motor variants with carbon-sleeve-wrapped rotors.
But the specs aren't what's important here — enjoy the full review from Jason Cammisa.
