The Tesla Model 3 is now the longest-range electric vehicle (EV) available in Australia, following the introduction of a new Long Range Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD) variant of the mid-size electric sedan for the 2026 model year. It’s also better than the Model 3 Long Range AWD, axed from the local lineup for 2026, which had offered the longest range in Tesla’s local lineup at 629km. Both were thoroughly beaten by the perennial best-seller, the Tesla Model Y, which posted 10,431 sales to more than double the Sealion 7’s sales of 3756. Also available to purchase by new customers, it’s available for Model 3 and Model Y vehicles equipped with Hardware (HW4) cameras.
