Model 3 LR vs. Performance

[SanmanM3]

Does anyone know what the differences are between these two? Besides the speed. I know the Performance Model 3 has a "Dual Motor" badge with a red line underneath it on the rear of the car. Are there any other ? Like interior trim or pedals?

LR AWD or LR RWD?

The car is identical to the AWD other than power.

Performance has 20" wheels, larger painted brake calipers, a rear spoiler, and possibly a different rear drive unit, as compared to the AWD.

And beefier sway bar, slightly lower ride, aluminum pedals, and all the floor mats, including the frunk. I don’t believe LR AWD comes with that.

Also, tires are Michelin Pilot Sport 4S summers (235-35-20)

I own a LR AWD and it came with all the floor mats.

I own a LR AWD and it came with all the floor mats.

Ditto, my AWD came with the carpet floor mats, including the frunk. No trunk though.

I‘d wager pretty much everyone here knows the difference. Try the search function or configuration tool on Tesla‘s website. Briefly, performance tires, rims, suspension, 0-60 3.2s vs ~4.0s, track mode (search that one) and a fairly minimalist spoiler.

These are part of the Premium interior. So included in the AWD, RWD LR & MR also.

Sorry. Was thinking P3-

I was sold a performance model 3 with the performance upgrade taken off....but it has the red stripe under the "long range" emblem on the rear....I'll try to post a pic

You have a P3D- AKA: Stealth Performance. It is somewhere in between a P3D and an AWD. It has the faster acceleration and Track mode of the P3D but (I believe) everything else is the same as the AWD.

 

[SanmanM3]

No track mode on mine....they sold it to me as a LR DUAL MOTOR...the pedals are rubber too....not sure what other differences there might be

 

[SanmanM3]

Soooo...what you're saying is....the performance is in there somewhere?

I upgraded from a $60k 10,000 miles LR RWD to a $80k P3D+. Hard choice now that performance is cheaper... but sometimes, I wish i have kept Beast Range model 3 for the extra 120 miles range. Performance you are looking at 220 range with PUP due to larger wheel... and maybe 250 without PUP.

I may get a pre owned LR RWD for daily commute maybe if pocket allows and wife approve haha. 330 miles range for $42k todays price still great deal for a car that’s built to last 500k-1M miles.

Who are "they"? Was it bought new from Tesla? Also you can look and see what you have under Software.

The only way to verify is to find an open road and see if your car goes to 162MPH. We all did it that way.

 

[Maaz]

Performance model 3 has larger performance brakes with red brake calipers. Alloy pedals in the interior. Carbon fiber spoiler, 20 inch rims. Lowered suspension. Track mode. And top speed of 162mph.

 

[SanmanM3]

It came directly from Tesla with 5 miles on it.
