Tesla has finally unveiled its longest-range Model 3 to date as it looks to cement its foothold on the European market and entice motorists to switch. The new Model 3 Long Range Rear-Wheel Drive has been added to Tesla's line-up in Europe with an official WLTP battery range of 436 miles (700km).

There’s already lots of buzz around the expected Model Y Juniper update and now a leading analyst says that a Model 2 announcement may happen at a Tesla event on October 10.

A new longer range Tesla Model 3 with an official 436 miles of range has arrived in the UK and Europe. Prices for the rear-wheel-drive (RWD) electric car start at £44,990, five grand dearer than the standard Model 3.

The Tesla Model 3 arrived in 2017 and took the car market by storm in the years that followed – with a broad appeal that helped to shift perceptions of electric vehicles into the mainstream.
