Tesla just made waves with a price drop on Model 3 leases, bringing payments as low as $299 a month. This matches some of the lowest deals we've seen before, but there's a massive caveat we'll dive into. If you're in the market for a Model 3, these could be game-changers—especially with some referral perks and inventory discounts lurking.
Here's the fresh lineup:
The Performance trim at $599/month? That's the lowest we've seen in ages. It might actually be the best overall deal when you factor in everything included.
Pro Tip: Before locking in, use a Tesla referral code (link in description or bio). You'll score 3 months of Full Self-Driving (FSD) for free or snag 0.99% financing. Tesla dropped prices by about $100 across trims, leaving room for that FSD subscription.
These deals aren't zero-down magic:
Zero down? Expect $383/month (before taxes and fees) for the base model. Always double-check the details on Tesla's site.
The new RWD Standard fills the low-cost slot but skips some premium touches (fewer speakers, but it does have the glass roof). The Premium RWD at just $50 more tempts, but you don't get extra speakers until AWD. Worth the upgrade? Depends on your priorities.
Don't sleep on the Performance:
Hunt Tesla's inventory page for extras—$2,000–$4,000 off on some Performances. We've seen it this quarter!
Trading up? Check out Plug for top-dollar offers on your electric vehicle. They've beaten trade-ins by $3,000–$6,000, even in tax-credit states. Get an offer in 15 minutes and cash in 2 days. Link here.
