The Tesla Model 3 is finally coming to the UK...

Want to see a Tesla Model 3 up close? We have good news: it’s making its European debut at next week’s Goodwood Festival of Speed. In static form, anyway.

There still aren’t any European prices, mind, and ta while to wait before UK production cars will arrive with customers in 2019. But given this is the circa-£30k BMW 3 Series-sized car that us normal folk have a decent chance of being able to afford, it’s quite exciting to have a look around one, right?

Y'know, to check just how big they’ve made the media screen this time. To see whether the styling is as slightly bland as it looks in pictures. To figure out if this really is the electric alternative to the German saloon car norm we’ve been waiting for.

Tesla will also have a Model S and Model X on display, too, as well as one of its home Powerwalls, which give your house a fighting chance of being as clever as your car. And if it all sounds a bit too techy for you, then there’ll be some good old fashioned power at Goodwood in the shape of the new McLaren 600LT, too…
