Recently, the media captured a series of spy shots of the new Tesla Model 3 undergoing road testing. The exterior of the new car has undergone significant changes, and it is expected to start production in September this year at Tesla's Gigafactories in Shanghai and California.
The new car is currently in the final stages of road testing and is heavily camouflaged. However, most of the details of the front and rear light clusters are visible, and it is not difficult to see that the new car closely resembles the previously leaked undisguised images. Comparing it to the earlier leaked real-life images, the new car will feature completely redesigned headlights with a more intricate internal structure. Additionally, the front bumper will also undergo some adjustments, giving it an overall resemblance to a sports car.
Looking at the rear details, the new car will be equipped with vertically positioned taillights. The specific style is not yet known, but it appears to have better recognition compared to the current model. Furthermore, the new car will be equipped with the HW4.0 hardware system, ensuring a more seamless integration of the side cameras with the body, resulting in a more cohesive visual effect.
As for the interior, based on previously leaked spy shots, the new Model 3 will continue to follow a minimalist design language. The car will still not be equipped with a traditional instrument cluster, and the turn signal lever, previously located behind the steering wheel, has been removed and integrated into the steering wheel for future operations. In addition, the new car will feature a touchscreen gear shifting operation on the center console, departing from the current stalk-style design.
