JAKARTA - The Tesla Model 3 facelift, also known as Project Highland, was originally introduced in Germany. The car experienced a number of cosmetic changes, including new rims, software re-tuning, and fresher design.

The car, which is Tesla's mainstay in terms of sales, is also now seen roaming the United States, one of which is Firebaugh Supercharger, which was shared by a Tesla Owners Silicon Valley user.

In the image shared, the updated Tesla Model 3 appears with a Deep Blue Metallic color, recharging its battery next to another new model in Tesla's portfolio, the Cybertruck.

Reporting from CarBuzz, Tuesday, January 2, it can be seen that this is not an existing production version, because the Model 3 is equipped with a "Engineering Vehicle" sticker and has a badge in Chinese, suggesting that this unit comes from Shanghai Gigafactory.

The 3 Highlands model, which will compete in the all-electric sedan market, comes with an upgraded EV capability. The Long Range AWD variant, which previously had a range of 601 km, can now reach 630 km. In addition, the charging speed has also increased, with an additional range of 281 km within 15 minutes, compared to the previous 236 km.

However, the US market is expected to get different specifications. According to user X, Robert Scoble, a Tesla employee told him that this reworked version would be available in the first quarter of 2024.

For additional information, Tesla is currently providing a massive discount for the Model 3, signaling that a facelift version may be coming soon.
