Model 3 Dimensions
Yeah we better just wait for Elon to tell us. I've tried estimating the width from different photos but kept getting wildly different figures so I've given up speculating! -

So if we can estimate the height of the car (using a side profile comparison of a similar height car) we could get an idea of the... -
