A base RWD Model 3 cost $37,000. There's a $1,500 instant rebate from CA, plus a $2,000 clean vehicle rebate you can apply for, for a total of $3,500 off the price of the car, which amounts to just about cover the tax and license fees. So for just around $37,xxx you can buy a base RWD Model 3 that weighs somewhere around 3,500 lbs, which is almost 400 lbs lighter than a BMW M340i xDrive.

The dual motor iterations of the Model 3, bot in Long Range guise and Performance guise, has a significantly larger battery pack (more weight) and an additional motor driving the front wheels (more weight).

What exactly seems off?
