Manhart Is Offering A Tuned Tesla Model 3 Performance With 543 HP And A Grille Decal For $90k

German tuner Manhart is known for tuning performance models most often from BMW and MINI, occasionally from Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche, or Lamborghini, and more rarely from Land Rover and Toyota. However, they recently decided it was time to move on to the electric era by tuning a Tesla Model 3. Besides the visual modifications, the fully electric sedan got a lowered suspension and a soft power boost. The tuned car is offered by Manhart for €74,900 which, at current exchange rates, translates to $88,768.

Manhart chose the flagship Tesla Model 3 Performance as a base for their tuning package. The German tuner added a set of red and grey stripe decals on the bonnet, trunk, and above the side sills, with matching red accents on the mirrors. While those look sporty enough, Manhart added another one on the front bumper with a honeycomb pattern resembling a grille.

At the front, there is also a bumper extension made of carbon fiber. Thankfully Manhart didn’t complete the look with fake exhaust pipes like other tuners have done in the past. Finally, the windows are tinted for extra privacy and to hide the completely stock and minimalist Tesla interior, although Manhart is offering tuning options for those who are interested.

The TM3 700, as they call it, is also fitted with 21-inch Baracuda wheels finished in platinum grey, shod in 235/30 R21 tires. The wheels give the Model 3 a powerful stance, especially when combined with the lowered suspension, courtesy of H&R springs for improved handling.

Manhart also developed the MHTronik Powerbox that extracts more juice from the dual motors of the already quite powerful Tesla Model 3 Performance. As a result, the electric powertrain produces a combined 543 hp (405 kW / 550 PS) and 720 Nm (531 lb-ft) of torque transmitted to all four wheels. This is a healthy hp 37 hp (27 kW / 37 PS) and 60 Nm (44 lb-ft) boost over the stock model and we guess the effects in performance would be noticeable. As for the battery, the TME 720 uses the stock 82 kWh lithium-ion unit.

Given that the stock Tesla Model 3 Performance costs €54,990 ($65,162) in Europe, the €74,900 ($88,768) Manhart is asking for the TM3 700 represents a €20k premium, which is quite a lot for the extent of the upgrades. However, the rarity of the vehicle might be attractive to those who want to stand out from the crowd.
