It is produced exclusively at the Gigafactory in Shanghai and distributed throughout Europe, Asia and the Pacific.
Tesla did not reveal when it intended to introduce the new version in North America, while continuing to sell the previous version with the older design.
Today, the automaker finally announced the new Model 3 in North America.
Tesla is referring to this as the “upgraded Model 3” and is starting to take orders right now for deliveries in “January-February.”.
Prices remained unchanged and the range remained unchanged for the RWD version. However, it is interesting to note that the top speed was reduced from 140 mph to 125 mph.
The acceleration time remained the same.
Based on the WLTP range calculation in Europe, the new Model 3 Highland is more efficient and has a longer range than the previous version. However, this upgrade does not apply to the United States, except for the Dual Motor version which offers 8 additional miles.
Tesla mentions some of the updates that have been made to the new Model 3:
