The 2023 Tesla Model 3 measures 4.72 m long and 2.09 m wide (including door mirrors). A standard UK parking bay is 2.4 m wide by 4.8 m long, so here's how it stacks up.

It's a snug fit: about 0.31 m of width and 0.08 m of length to spare. Doable, but you'll want to line up carefully — and choosing an end bay or a quieter part of the car park makes life easier.

Its turning circle is 11.7 m (kerb to kerb) — fairly typical for a car of this size.
