Tesla Model 3 physical key usage instructions: 1. Press A twice to open the front trunk; 2. Press B once to lock the doors and trunk; 3. Press B twice to unlock the doors and both front and rear trunks; 4. Press C twice to open the rear trunk; 5. Hold C for 1 to 2 seconds to open the charging port. The Tesla Model 3 features a keyless design and comes with a card key, while the physical key can be purchased separately upon vehicle delivery. Tesla is an American electric vehicle and energy company, primarily manufacturing and selling electric vehicles, solar panels, and energy storage systems. The Tesla Model 3 is a new addition to the Tesla Model X series, with body dimensions of 4694mm in length, 1850mm in width, and 1443mm in height, a wheelbase of 1611mm, front double-wishbone independent suspension, and rear multi-link independent suspension.
As one of the first batch of Model 3 owners, the physical key is a credit card-sized key card, which is great to keep in your pocket as a backup. When you want to drive, just take out the card and tap it against the driver's side door pillar—the car will unlock. Once inside, don’t rush; place the card on the wireless charging pad below the cup holders, then press the brake to start the car. After turning off the car, simply remove the card from the charging pad, close the door, and the car will automatically lock. I recommend slipping the card into your phone case to avoid losing it—that’s what I’ve been doing, and it’s been hassle-free for two years. Tesla really should include a couple more key cards; it’s a hassle when my spouse needs to drive and has to ask me for the card.
