Battery options vary by market and trim. Standard Range models typically deliver around 430–500 km (WLTP), while Long Range and Performance versions extend closer to 560–630 km.

Within the same brand, buyers often compare it with the Tesla Model Y and Tesla Model S. Key alternatives include the Hyundai Ioniq 6 and BYD Seal. Compared with the BMW i4, Model 3 emphasizes efficiency and software integration over traditional luxury cues.
