3 Reasons Why Tesla Motor's Model 3 is a Game-Changer:

Tesla announced earlier this week, the official name of its newly planned affordable vehicle - the Model 3.

Some believe that's a bit outlandish, however, others think he may be right.

It seems there is a solid case for the Tesla affordable care. The market overall agrees that they have a good chance to build a car that is every bit as marketable as the BMW 3 series. Tesla intends to sell 500,000 of these electric cars annually by the year 2020. That would put them on par with the entire BMW 3 lineup. Becoming a rival to the BMW 3 series would definitely make Tesla's model 3 a Game-Changer.
