Tesla’s Updated Model 3 Performance Sedan Leaks: What’s New?
Can the Tesla Model 3 Performance’s new upgrades take electric performance to ‘Ludicrous Speed’?
Photos and videos of the facelifted Tesla Model 3 Performance have surfaced online, giving us a glimpse of its anticipated features and design. Check out the leaked footage below.
The leaked videos, shared on social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter), showcase the upcoming Tesla Model 3 Performance without any camouflage. Filmed in Spain for an advertisement, the footage reveals interesting details about the redesigned sedan.
In one of the videos, a black Model 3 Performance stands out with its unique front bumper design. This aesthetic update adds a touch of sportiness to the electric vehicle.
The second video features a red version of the Model 3 Performance. It not only boasts visibly different wheels but also showcases upgraded brakes and a rear lip spoiler, enhancing both performance and visual appeal.
Perhaps the most intriguing aspect of the red car is the small badge located in the bottom right-hand corner of its boot. It bears a resemblance to the pattern seen in the cult film Spaceballs when the spaceship accelerates to ‘Ludicrous Speed.’ This has sparked speculation that the new Model 3 Performance may adopt the name ‘Ludicrous,’ aligning it with the flagship ‘Plaid’ variant of Tesla’s Model S sedan.
While the exterior receives notable updates, the interior of the Model 3 Performance remains largely unchanged. However, the addition of sport seats with chunkier bolstering promises to deliver enhanced comfort and support during spirited driving.
Performance-wise, the updated Model 3 is expected to outperform its predecessor. The previous version boasted impressive acceleration, reaching 0-100km/h in just 3.3 seconds. With the potential for improved specifications, Tesla enthusiasts eagerly await the official unveiling of the 2024 Model 3 Performance.
Tesla is anticipated to reveal the facelifted Model 3 Performance in the first half of this year, with Australian deliveries projected to commence in the second half of 2024 or early 2025. As for pricing, it remains uncertain whether there will be any significant changes compared to the pre-update model, which had a starting price of $83,400 before on-road costs.
Excitement builds as Tesla enthusiasts anticipate the arrival of the updated Model 3 Performance. With sleek exterior updates, potential performance enhancements, and the possibility of a ‘Ludicrous’ variant, this electric sedan aims to continue Tesla’s legacy of innovation and excitement.
