Car Reviews

Tesla has become the benchmark other EVs are still chasing — a combination of real-world range, a mature Supercharger network, and over-the-air updates that genuinely improve the car over time. Both the Model Y and Model 3 are among the most practical and polished electric cars you can buy today.

At Cars&TechSG we've tested five Tesla variants across Cat A and Cat B — from the everyday Model 3 RWD 110 to the Model Y Long Range RWD and the 3.1-second Model 3 Performance. Every review is driven on local roads and written without the usual press-kit spin.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from buyers researching Tesla — answered from real driving experience.

Which Tesla should I buy here?

It depends on your budget and COE category. The Model Y Juniper and Model 3 Cat A both qualify under Cat A (110kW), making them the most accessible entry points. For more range under Cat B, the Model Y Long Range RWD delivers up to 661km WLTP. If performance matters most, the Model 3 Performance does 0–100km/h in 3.1 seconds — though read our honest road tax note before committing. Browse the individual reviews above to compare real-world differences.

Is the Tesla Model Y Cat A or Cat B?

Both variants exist. The Model Y Juniper is Cat A with its motor capped at 110kW. The Model Y Long Range RWD is Cat B with 220kW output and significantly more range. We've driven and reviewed both — the real differences in range, performance and cabin experience are covered in full in each individual review.

What is the real-world range of the Tesla Model Y Long Range?

The 2026 Model Y Long Range RWD claims up to 661km WLTP. In everyday local driving — a mix of expressway and city with air-conditioning — most owners realistically achieve 450–550km per charge depending on speed and driving style. The Supercharger network makes longer trips practical, with 250kW DC charging at select locations.

Is the Tesla Model 3 Performance worth the road tax?

The Model 3 Performance delivers 618bhp and a 3.1-second century sprint that puts most petrol performance cars to shame off the line. The honest caveat is road tax — at S$6,698 annually, it's a significant recurring cost. We flagged this directly in our review. If the performance number excites you, factor that annual tax into your total ownership calculation before signing.

Does Tesla have good after-sales support?

Tesla's over-the-air software updates mean many improvements happen without a workshop visit — a genuine ownership advantage over conventional brands. Service centres operate locally and the Supercharger network continues to grow. Some owners note service appointment wait times can vary, so factor that into the full ownership picture if rapid turnaround matters to you.
