A Tesla Model 3 just shattered the Cannonball record with a 45-hour-37-minute coast-to-coast run, all on full self-driving. The car used the new Unplugged Performance Model 3 range booster package and posted an impressive 238 Wh/mi average.
The Record-Breaking Setup
Zack and his team crossed 2871 miles in the Highland Model 3 without any human intervention. FSD handled every mile, including parking at every Supercharger. The efficiency came from the tesla model 3 aero package that includes Unplugged Performance wheels, a rear wing, lowering springs, and a rear diffuser.
This is the first public model 3 highland range boost kit, and it clearly works. The unplugged performance wheels alone cut drag enough to push real-world efficiency into territory most owners only dream about.
What This Means for Owners
If you want similar gains on your Highland, the same aero parts are available now. Owners chasing maximum range or simply better efficiency can bolt on the full kit. I’ve covered how much Tesla owners typically spend on mods here, and this package sits right in the middle of that range while delivering measurable results.
The model 3 cannonball run also set a new tesla fsd cannonball record, proving the car can handle the entire trip autonomously when paired with the right hardware.
Bottom Line
Unplugged Performance just gave Highland owners a legitimate way to chase better range without software changes. The numbers speak for themselves: 45 hours 37 minutes, 2871 miles, and 238 Wh/mi on full self-driving. If you’re serious about squeezing every mile out of your Model 3, this aero package is worth a serious look.
