Manhart Has A Special Gift For Tesla Model 3

Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche, Lamborghini, and Land Rover are just a few of the vehicles that German tuner Manhart works on. A Tesla Model 3 has been tuned by the team as a result of their recent decision to switch to EVs.

Apart from the cosmetic changes, this electric vehicle received a modest performance boost and a lowered suspension. Manhart is selling the tuned automobile for $88,768.

Manhart's tuning package is based on the Tesla Model 3 Performance, the top-of-the-line model. A pair of red and grey stripe decals were placed to the hood, trunk, and above the side sills, along with matching red highlights on the side mirrors. The tuner also incorporated a grille-like honeycomb design to the front bumper, which gives the car a more aggressive look.

Also, there is a carbon fiber bumper enlargement on the front. In contrast to other tuners, Manhart didn't add false exhaust pipes to complete the image. As a final touch, Manhart has darkened the glass for further privacy and to disguise the Tesla's fully stock and simple interior.

On the TM3 700, as it's known, are 21-inch Baracuda wheels in platinum grey, which are equipped with 235/30R21 tires. In combination with H&R springs for increased handling and the Model 3's aggressive wheels, the tuned version has a muscular posture.

Tesla Model 3 Performance's dual motors can be boosted even further using Manhart's MHTronik Powerbox. A total of 543-hp and 720 Nm (531 lb-ft) of torque are delivered to all four wheels by the electric engine. With an extra 37-hp and 60 Nm over the base model, we expect considerable performance improvements. An 82-kWh lithium-ion battery powers the TME720.

All this is a 20k premium above the base price of the Tesla Model 3 Performance, which is €54,990 ($65,162) in Europe. The vehicle's rarity, on the other hand, is appealing to people who wish to shake things up and be noticed.
