Tesla Model 3 facelift "Project Highland" secretly exposed

IT House February 4 news, Tesla "Project Highland" has been exposed to the public for a long time, but we recently found that the electric car manufacturer has been developing it longer than most people think.

From the current situation, it should be a Model 3 facelift project, although Tesla has not officially announced its details, but all intelligence at the moment indicates that the new car is not much different from the existing Model 3. Now, someone has taken more photos of the new Model 3, let's take a look together.

Foreign media believe that Tesla deliberately concealed some things, possibly to give some "surprises" to the prospective owners of Model 3 who have not yet picked up the car?

The current industry consensus is that the facelifted Model 3 is expected to arrive in the second half of 2023, which is basically the same as the launch time of the Tesla Cybertruck.

However, compared to Musk's Cybertruck, Tesla Model 3 may be more like an electric car aimed at the masses. Therefore, the cost control of this model is very important, but it cannot castrate the most important part of the experience.

IT House found that Tesla launched the Model 3 in 2017, and it has been nearly 6 years since then, so it urgently needs a major upgrade or redesign. So what exactly does Tesla have to do with the upcoming Project Highland?

Judging from the Model 3 spy photos obtained by Kilowatts, the front of the new car has obvious changes, and will also bring design updates, but most of the improvements may be "not necessarily visible at the body level." So, why did Tesla deliberately put a camouflage paint on it, wouldn't this just seem to be silverless three hundred taels here?

But unfortunately, Tesla has done a good job of secrecy, and we haven't seen much information about this yet. Compared with its sister model Model Y, Model 3 will probably also use a new generation of cutting-edge technology and design, but the overall characteristics of the sedan are still maintained.

Foreign media expect that another big update of the updated Model 3 is Hardware 4, and the intelligent processor that is planned to appear with the Cybertruck should bring great progress in computing power and intelligence. If that's true, the new Model 3 should come out after the Cybertruck electric pickup.

But alas, both in terms of appearance and software, information about this new car is vague. On the bright side, though, maybe Tesla will provide more specific details at the upcoming Investor Day event.

IT House recalls that Sk recently noted on Twitter that Cybertruck wasn't actually quite ready, and didn't respond when asked if he would see more information at the upcoming investor day. However, considering that Tesla will definitely announce something at the investor day, and there is no guarantee that the Cybertruck will be good news, then a project like the new Model 3 that everyone will pay attention to is the best choice.
