The Tyrrell 003 is a Formula One (F1) racing car which was designed by Tyrrell's chief designer, Derek Gardner and used in the 1971 and 1972 F1 seasons. It was driven by Jackie Stewart to the 1971 World Drivers' Championship.

The 003 was effectively the same as the Tyrrell 001 with a redesigned nose section, longer wheelbase, and a narrower monocoque.
