We finally have some clarification on Tesla Model 3 Refresh and I just learned that Tesla China shed some light on the production status of the refreshed Model 3, but it's rather complicated.
Tesla has gained a reputation for being a leader in innovation and for constantly pushing the boundaries of what's possible. The latest rumors surrounding Tesla concern the production of a newly refreshed Tesla Model 3, dubbed "Project Highland." While Tesla China has denied the rumors of production starting on June 1st in Shanghai, there are still indications that the refreshed Model 3 is in the works.
The details surrounding Project Highland are sparse, but various filings and sightings of updated Model 3 vehicles in camouflage suggest that the project is well underway. It's worth noting that Tesla has a history of being tight-lipped about its future plans, with the company preferring to make surprise announcements rather than giving concrete details beforehand. Despite this, it's clear that Tesla is always working on improving its vehicles, with updates and improvements happening continually, rather than in large refresh cycles.
The refreshed Model 3 is rumored to have a new front end, among other design adjustments. While Tesla has not confirmed this, various third-party sources have indicated that the updated Model 3 vehicles seen in the wild are Alpha prototypes. Tesla CEO Elon Musk has also confirmed that the company is working on infotainment updates and features related to its self-driving plans, which will be coming later this year. These updates are expected to make Tesla's vehicles even more advanced than they already are.
The rumors surrounding Project Highland suggest that Tesla is gearing up to begin production of the revamped Model 3 at its Gigafactory in Shanghai. While Tesla China has denied these rumors, the company has been more engaged in China than in North America, and it has a press team that is dedicated to defending the company against false news and naysayers. Tesla has also denied rumors in the past that later proved to be true, leading some to speculate that the company may just be changing its wording.
It's worth noting that Tesla has always been big on surprises and announcements, so it's not surprising that the company is tight-lipped about its plans. Tesla has gained a reputation for being innovative and always pushing the boundaries of what's possible, and the refreshed Model 3 is expected to continue this trend. As the world continues to transition towards more sustainable transportation options, Tesla is likely to remain at the forefront of the EV industry, with its vehicles becoming even more advanced and innovative in the years to come.
