Best Cargo Liners and Trunk Mats for the Model 3

If you want one answer: buy the three-piece Yeslak set, because it is the only one of these that covers the front trunk, the rear trunk floor and the deep well under that floor in a single order. If you would rather buy one surface at a time, start with the sub-floor well liner, not the trunk floor, because the well is the surface you cannot easily clean and the one that quietly collects everything that leaks.

The reason Model 3 trunk shopping is confusing is that a Model 3 does not have a trunk. It has three unconnected cargo surfaces, and the listings almost never say which of them a product covers. A set photographed on a trunk floor can be a one-piece mat. A set described as a trunk liner can be a well insert. The word in the title tells you nothing useful, so the first job on this page is to separate the surfaces.

The three surfaces, and which one is the real problem

The Model 3 is a sedan with a hatch-shaped opening into a deep trunk, plus a small front trunk. From the perspective of something leaking, that geometry matters more than total volume. Liquid in a Model Y's flat cargo bay spreads sideways. Liquid in a Model 3's trunk runs downhill, into the sub-floor well, through the gap around the floor panel. That is why owners who have never had a problem with mats in a previous car suddenly care about this one.

That last row is the whole argument of this page. The well is the only one of the three that is not carpet, so it is the only one that will not stain. It is also the most awkward to get at, which is why a spill that reaches it tends to stay there until it smells. A liner in the well is not about protecting the plastic. It is about being able to lift the mess out in one piece instead of leaning into the trunk with a cloth.

How we chose

We have not tested any of these in a car, and this page never pretends otherwise. What we can do is check the things that decide whether a trunk liner is worth owning, all of which are verifiable from the manufacturer's own listing. In order of weight:

1. Which surfaces are in the box. A three-piece set and a one-piece mat are not competing products, and comparing their prices directly is the mistake that makes people feel cheated.
2. Whether the generation is named. A Highland trunk and a 2017-2023 trunk are different shapes. A listing that says 'Model 3' with no year range is telling you it was not cut for either one specifically.
3. Whether the sub-floor well is addressed at all, as a included piece or as a stated separate part number.
4. Published material and construction detail. TPE, layered thermoplastic, a stated thickness - anything we can attribute to the brand rather than guess at.
5. Whether the product is actually in stock. Everything on this page was checked on the day of writing; cargo liners for older generations go out of stock and stay out.
6. Honest value, which here means price per surface covered, not price per box.

1. Best overall

Yeslak all-weather trunk cargo mats (Model 3)

Yeslak

The only set here that treats a Model 3 trunk as the three surfaces it actually is: front trunk, rear trunk floor and the sub-floor well, in one order. The brand publishes a high vertical wall and a channel pattern on the front-trunk piece, and lists the Highland and the 2017-2023 car separately rather than implying one shape fits both. Top of the TPE price range, and no published thickness figure to compare against the premium liners.

Best for: Covering the frunk, the trunk floor and the sub-floor well in one order

Fits: Model 3 (2017-2023) · Model 3 Highland (2024-2026)

Overall8.6/ 10 — our editorial score, not a lab test

What works

• The only one of these sets that covers the sub-floor well as standard rather than as an add-on
• Including the frunk matters on a Model 3, where the frunk is small enough that one leaking bag reaches every corner of it
• Also sold as a rear-mat-only option if you do not want the whole set

What does not

• Priced at the top of the TPE range — you are paying three-piece money whether or not you need three pieces
• The brand publishes no thickness figure, so you cannot compare rigidity on paper

Manufacturer specifications

• Three-piece configuration: front trunk, rear trunk floor and rear trunk well
• TPE, which the brand describes as odor-free and eco-friendly
• Brand states the front trunk piece uses a high vertical wall and a channel pattern to catch liquid
• Separate listings for the Highland and for the 2017-2023 Model 3

2. Best fit for the trunk floor

3D MAXpider Kagu rear cargo liner (Model 3)

3D MAXpider

If you only want the visible trunk floor covered and you want it done exactly, this is the tray: three-layer Kagu construction, shaped from a vehicle scan, with current part numbers listed by model year through 2026. It covers one surface. The well underneath it is a different part number.

Best for: Covering the main Model 3 trunk floor with the best-fitting tray available for it

Overall8.3/ 10 — our editorial score, not a lab test

What works

• The trunk-floor shape is molded rather than approximated, so it does not ride up the sides of the well
• Rigid enough to lift out with a load of dirt still sitting in it
• Current part numbers are listed for model years through 2026, which is rare in this category

What does not

• Covers the upper trunk floor only — the deep sub-floor well is a separate part number and a separate purchase
• The most expensive way to cover one surface of a Model 3 trunk

Manufacturer specifications

• Kagu three-layer construction: patterned top surface, shock-absorbing core, anti-skid base
• Listed per model year, with separate rear cargo and rear lower cargo part numbers
• Brand states the shape is taken from a 3D scan of the specific vehicle, with no trimming needed

3. The piece most owners skip

3D MAXpider Kagu rear lower cargo liner (Model 3)

3D MAXpider

The sub-floor well is bare molded plastic from the factory, it is where groceries end up, and it is the hardest part of the trunk to wipe out. This liner is cheaper than the upper tray and fixes the worse problem, which makes it a defensible first purchase on its own.

Best for: The deep well under the Model 3 trunk floor, which most sets ignore

Overall8.4/ 10 — our editorial score, not a lab test

What works

• The sub-floor well is bare molded plastic from the factory and the hardest part of the trunk to clean — this is the piece that fixes that
• Cheaper than the upper cargo liner, so it is a sensible first purchase on its own

What does not

• Does nothing for the visible trunk floor, so most owners end up buying both parts
• Lifting the floor panel to get at it means unloading whatever is on top first

Manufacturer specifications

• Separate Kagu part shaped to the sub-floor well rather than the upper trunk floor
• Same three-layer Kagu construction as the upper liner
• Listed per model year alongside the rear cargo liner

Tesery all-weather TPE trunk mats (Model 3 Highland)

Tesery

Front and rear coverage for roughly half what the premium three-piece sets ask, with a front-trunk-only option that fixes the one area owners most often regret leaving bare. The listing publishes far less than the bigger brands do - no thickness, no temperature range, no warranty detail - and it is Highland-only.

Buy the set or buy the pieces?

A three-piece set is the cheaper route if you want all three surfaces, and nobody who sells trunk liners disputes that. The case for buying pieces is different: it is that you probably do not want all three. If you never carry anything in the frunk except a charging cable, a frunk mat is money spent on a surface that sees one cable. If you have a trunk organizer holding everything upright already, the floor under it is not what is getting dirty.

The useful question is which surface has actually annoyed you. Buying in response to a real annoyance gets you a liner you notice using. Buying a three-piece set because it was the best value per piece gets you two liners you forget are there.

What changed between the Highland and the 2017-2023 car

Enough that cross-fitting is not worth attempting. The trunk aperture, the shape of the well and the floor panel all moved with the 2024 refresh, which is why the brands that take fitment seriously publish two separate listings. Yeslak does. 3D MAXpider breaks it down further, by model year. Tesery's trunk set is Highland only, which is at least unambiguous.

If you have a 2017-2023 Model 3, there is a second problem: this category is thinning out for older cars. Several sets we checked while writing this page were listed for the Highland and sold out or discontinued for the earlier generation. That is not a reason to buy the wrong part - a liner that does not follow the well is worse than no liner, because it traps grit underneath itself - but it is a reason to buy the right one while it is in stock.

What this category does not fix

Liners stop dirt reaching the carpet. They do not stop things sliding around, and on a Model 3 the sliding is the more common complaint, because the trunk is deep and narrow and a bag that tips over disappears to the bottom of it. If the problem you are actually trying to solve is noise and chaos rather than stains, an organizer is the cheaper answer - our Model 3 trunk organizer roundup covers that, and the two products work well together: organizer on top, liner underneath.

They also do not add space. Published Model 3 cargo figures are what they are, and a liner takes a few millimeters out of the depth rather than adding any. If you are trying to work out whether something will physically fit, Model 3 trunk dimensions has the published numbers and is honest about which ones are measured by whom. And if the mess in your car is in the cabin rather than the trunk, door pocket liners apply exactly the same lift-out logic to the bare plastic bins in the doors.

Our call

For most Model 3 owners the three-piece Yeslak set is the right purchase, because it is the only one that covers the surface everyone forgets and the two surfaces everyone remembers, in one order, with the generation named. It is not the cheapest route to a covered trunk floor and it does not pretend to be.

If you want the best possible fit on the surface you look at every day, the 3D MAXpider rear cargo liner is the better tray and the model-year-level fitment list is the clearest in the category. Add the rear lower cargo liner to it and you have the same coverage as a three-piece set minus the frunk, for more money and a noticeably better fit.

And if this is your first liner purchase and you want to spend the least that still fixes something real: buy the sub-floor well liner on its own. It is the cheapest piece, it protects the surface you can least easily clean, and it is the one that will still be doing something useful in three years.
