Tesla has recently launched new irresistible Model 3 lease offers that will turn American heads as other EVs become increasingly popular.

The EV market has quickly become more diverse since Tesla dominated during the early years.

Since then, though, Ford, Toyota, and Chevy all have gained massive footholds in the American market, making EV cars to rival the OGs.

But Tesla is now looking at itself in the rearview mirror and has decided to slash the price of some of its most popular models.

Tesla chops Model 3 lease prices with no upfront fees

Tesla has really been ramping its efforts to overturn its poor start to 2025. The first few months saw sales drop amid a lack of demand for the flagship EV models.

In a bid to get back on top, the American company has recently released new FSD Robotaxi technology. It’s also made great strides in creating the lowest KW/H battery in the world to improve efficiency.

Now, Tesla has reviewed the price of its leases, and the popular Model 3 is the focus.

The Model 3 Long Range RWD model has seen a huge decrease of 17 percent in monthly lease fees, being cut from $299 to $249.

As for the AWD model, a similar $50 decrease has been implemented, although that’s a smaller percentage, down from $399 to $349.

The Performance model has stayed the same at $599 a month.

However, all lease agreements have seen the down payments removed, with only a small $250 ‘order fee’ being needed to get your car.

Monthly payments are the way forward

“We’ve been targeting the low cost of ownership. Monthly payment is the biggest differentiator for our vehicles,” said Lars Moravy, Vice President of Vehicle Engineering, during the 2025 Q1 earnings call. 

This slash in price also comes into effect for the Cybertruck, which saw a similar 17 percent decrease in lease fees.

According to Experian, leasing EVs is the most popular form of ‘ownership’ in America. In fact, nearly half of electric vehicle owners choosing the monthly instalments system over loans and cash purchases.

For Tesla, its a well-needed revision for its current finance Models, knowing that the market has changed significantly in the last two years.

The future is still bright for the EV maker, though, as the new Model Q cars are expected to be seen soon alongside the Cybercab.
