The Tesla Model 3 may not be the car of the future as its creator has suggested, as a recent teardown of the said car model has revealed numerous flaws akin to that of a 1990 automobile from Kia.

Apparently, the Model 3, which is the entry-level electric car from Tesla, looks as if work on it had been rushed and that it still needs polish. Munro and Associations, the company responsible for the said inspection for Model 3, has noted that the car is not particularly safe against certain accidents. One proof is that there is no emergency manual release for the rear door and the electrical system is not easily accessible. This means that in the event of a power failure, those in the back seat would have to evacuate using the front doors, which is very much unsafe.

There also seems to be an improvised fix put in place in one of the front doors of the car, where an extra piece of fabric has seemingly been glued onto one of the front doors to help it seal better. Other problems include the door handles, the tailgate, the shut lines and a lot more which would require a list — and these are just from the initial look of the car.

Sandy Munroe of Munro and Associations claimed "I don't understand how it got to this point. These are flaws that we'd see on a Kia in the '90s." So those hoping to buy a Tesla Model 3 might want to hear further announcements from Munro and Associations first before committing their money to Tesla.

Other sources have chalked up the poor quality of the Model 3 to the production hell Tesla is experiencing right now, as the car manufacturer is struggling to meet its projected quotas and manufacturing targets. Whatever the case may be, it may be best to wait for the response of the company before deciding on which electric car to purchase.
