What it is

This 2025 Tesla Model 3 is a midsize car powered by electricity. It uses rear-wheel drive, an automatic transmission, and a 192 kW ACPM 3-phase electric motor.

Its defining EPA figure is a 363-mile range on a full charge. That is the distance the EPA rating gives this version before recharging.

The numbers

The Model 3 Long Range RWD earns a combined 137 MPGe. It uses 24.64 kWh of electricity per 100 miles. The range and MPGe figures describe different things: range is miles per charge, while MPGe compares energy use with gasoline mileage.

What it costs to run

The EPA annual fuel-cost estimate is $550. That figure reflects electricity use under the EPA rating rather than a gasoline bill.

At a 240-volt connection, the listed charge time is 11.7 hours.

How it compares

A 137 MPGe rating gives this Tesla a clear place in an efficiency-focused EV comparison. Use the electric efficiency chart to compare its combined MPGe with other electric cars.

Its 363-mile EPA range also belongs in a range-focused comparison. The longest-range electric car chart puts that figure alongside other EV ranges, while the Tesla car list keeps the comparison within the same maker.

Who it suits

This Model 3 suits a driver who wants a midsize electric car with rear-wheel drive and a long EPA-rated range. The 363-mile figure favors trips where fewer charging stops matter.

Its 137 MPGe rating and $550 EPA annual fuel-cost estimate also fit a buyer focused on electricity use and yearly running expense.

Trade-offs

The long range comes with a listed 11.7-hour charge time at 240 volts. Charging speed and driving distance therefore answer different needs.

Electricity use is 24.64 kWh per 100 miles, and the car is rear-wheel drive. Those figures define its running profile and drivetrain choice.

Verdict

Choose this Model 3 when a midsize electric car, rear-wheel drive, and a 363-mile EPA range line up with your driving. Its 137 MPGe combined rating keeps energy use in focus, while the EPA puts yearly fuel cost at $550. Plan around the 11.7-hour 240-volt charge time. This is a straightforward fit for buyers weighing distance per charge against charging time, with no gasoline engine or multi-speed transmission involved.
