This beautiful white Tesla Model 3 is the secret “off-menu” base Model 3, and it’s the most affordable Tesla ever made. My wife and I visited beautiful sunny California thanks to Canossa Events and Travel Paso who helped put on a 5-day Electric Vehicle grand tour in Paso Robles, California. For this trip I rented this Tesla Model 3 on Turo, not knowing that it was the $35,000 Standard Range base Model 3. It doesn’t have Autopilot. It doesn’t have traffic-aware cruise control. It’s very bare-bones and it’s something I’ve been wanting to try for a long time to see if it’s actually worth the money. The reason this is the secret Tesla is because it’s not available to order online at Tesla.com like all the other Tesla vehicles. You have to actually make a special request for this Model 3. In this video I’m going to give you my thoughts on what it’s been like to travel 1,000 miles in the cheapest Tesla that you can buy right now.
