The Model 3’s flat EV floor is a floor mat buyer’s dream: no transmission tunnel means a single-piece rear liner sits flat across the whole rear floor pan, and the front footwells are wide and simple. The Highland refresh (late 2023 UK deliveries onwards) tightened the door-sill line and moved the front seat rails forward by a small amount, but did not change the retention pattern or footwell shape enough to break mat compatibility.

What to look for on the listing
- The listing should specify Highland (2023-onwards) or pre-Highland (2020-2023) - the sill lines differ.
- Rear liner should be a one-piece bathtub-style, not a three-piece bench set.
- The frunk (front trunk) takes its own moulded liner - buy separately.
- Aftermarket TPE liners for the Model 3 usually include the underboot well liner in a single package.
Frequently asked questions
Are Model Y and Model 3 mats interchangeable?
Front mats no - the seat rails and dashboard sit slightly differently. Rear mats no - Model Y is a taller SUV with different floor pan dimensions. Buy Model 3-specific.
Do Tesla’s OE all-weather mats work well in the UK?
Yes. Tesla’s own moulded liners cover the whole footwell with deep channels; they are more expensive than aftermarket TPE but do the job. Aftermarket brands (3D MAXpider, TuxMat) also make Highland-specific sets.
