Tesla Model 3 Chassis Solution

 

Model 3 is the entry-level car of the world's best selling EV company Tesla. With much more reasonable prices than the previous Model S/X, it promised to be more accessible for the masses. Under the body hides a sporty chassis, the front and rear multi-link suspension does offer great handling performance. On the exterior, it's a mid-sized fastback that comes with distinctive, subdued body styling along with full LED lighting. The minimalist design means plenty of room are left for customization and upgrades.

2 different drivetrain layouts are offered for Model 3: RWD (Single motor) & AWD (Dual motor). They share most of the suspension components only except coilovers and sway bars settings.

Plastic reinforced stamped steel construction is used for front upper arms. The rear end comes with conventional 5-link suspenison and coil and shock seperated design. 

Surprisingly, RWD (single motor) models receives front sway bars only and does not have the rear one, therefore resulting in more unstable rear end reactions than the AWD (Dual motor) cars.

Weight however has always been an issue for most electric cars. Even with that much torque on Model 3, will still put large effect on ride and handling carring the extra weight of battaries. Suspension loads and tyre wears in this circumstance become harsher as well. Also, since the characteristic of an EV motor is totally different from conventional combustion engines, Electric cars will behave totally differently on power delivery and dynamics.
