Indeed, the company’s entire existence has been predicated on delivering an affordable EV for the mass market. With the Model 3 being years in the making, Tesla would only have one shot to get it right. From a technical perspective (i.e. range, speed), there were few doubts that Tesla would deliver the goods.
