For specifications, the standard Tesla Model 3 Highland comes with a single electric motor that has a maximum travel range of 513 km (WLTP cycle) with a single charge, and its performance figure covers a time of 0-100 km/hour in 6.1 seconds and a maximum speed of 201 km/hour. The Standard RWD can support DC charging speeds of up to 170 kW.

This refresh brings a small change to the exterior of the Model 3. Front light on the facelift is now slimmer and the car gets a more prominent LED light during the day. The fog light has been removed, replaced by one central ventilation, which gives this car a better impression. More aggressive look, on the back get new lights and a redesigned bumper.

As a standard, the Model 3 comes with an exterior finishing of Pearl White Multi-Coat, but there are other color choices that are charged an additional fee of IDR 15 million to get a Solid Black or Deep Blue Metallic color, while for the Stealth Gray color, they have to spend IDR 24 million and Ultra Red IDR 36 million.

In general, the Model 3 comes with a black interior, but the buyer can determine the white interior at a more expensive price of IDR 15 million.

Speaking of interior, the facelift cabin is a quieter place than ever, thanks to the use of two panels of acoustic glass. As a result, it can ward off wind and environmental noise by about 30 percent and reduce noise due to surface impacts by 25 percent, and increase road noise by 20 percent.
