If the Model S proved that Tesla could sell electric vehicles as luxury cars, the Model 3 proved that EVs could go mainstream. One of the greenest choices on the market, it's also one of the most affordable, with the base model of the four-door sedan selling for less than $40,000. Since the first deliveries in 2017, the Tesla Model 3 has become one of the best-selling EVs of all time, with nearly 3 million on the road.
