Source: Khairil Azhar Junos/Shutterstock.comRecent reports claim that Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) is planning to revamp the Model 3 under the secret “Highland” project.
The Tesla Model 3 was first introduced back in 2017 as a more economic option for cost-minded consumers. Since then, the electric vehicle (EV) hasn’t been given any major updates and its age is starting to show.
That’s reportedly why a revamp of the Tesla Model 3 is underway as Project Highland. Let’s get into everything fans of Tesla, as well as TSLA stock investors, need to know about that below!
Tesla Model 3 Revamp
- According to the latest reports, Tesla is aiming to launch the updated Model 3 as early as next year.
- The goal of this redesign is to simplify the interior design while also retaining features that Tesla owners love.
- That includes removing some of the more complex moving parts while still keeping the Tesla display.
- This would allow Tesla to reduce the costs of the Model 3, which makes sense considering the effects inflation is having on markets.
- However, it’s still unclear how much cost will be saved from this and if it will result in customers seeing a lower price.
- The reports also claim that the updated Model 3 will take design cues from the redesigned Model S introduced last year.
- That means we might see the inclusion of the yoke steering wheel introduced in the Model S, but the reports don’t mention it.
- Also included in the reports are claims that the new Model 3 will sport an updated powertrain and exterior changes.
- They also state that the new version of the EV will be manufactured at the company’s Shanghai and Fremont, Calif. plants.
- That could see production start in the third quarter of 2023.
TSLA stock is up 1.7% as of Monday afternoon.
