According to Watts_Up, a member of the Tesla Owners Club (TMC) forum, he came across a test car of the new Tesla Model 3 Performance high-performance version that was suspected to be released soon in San Francisco. Judging from the photos taken, the new car seems to be equipped with a carbon fiber dashboard.
It is noticed that the front and rear of this white test car are covered with camouflage and equipped with 19-inch tires. Interestingly, the car’s chassis number (VIN) is “LRW3E7ET8PCR00287”, and its 11th letter is “C”, indicating that it may not have come from Tesla’s factory in Fremont, California, but from Shanghai Supermarket in China. factory. Model 3 vehicles produced at Tesla’s Fremont plant usually have the letter “F” in the 11th digit of their frame numbers.
Although there are not many details in the photos taken, the carbon fiber instrument panel and sports bucket seats are obviously different from the regular version of Model 3. These two configurations also imply that the upgraded Model 3 Performance will pay more attention to performance.
Previously, two undisguised upgraded Model 3 Performance test cars were exposed in Valencia, Spain, which were suspected to be used for advertising shoots. Details revealed at the time included new aerodynamic wheels and a “Ludicrous” logo on the rear of the car.
As Tesla’s performance car that combines fun and cost-effectiveness, Model 3 Performance has always attracted much attention. Compared with the Model S Plaid, the Model 3 has a lighter body and more flexible handling; at the same time, its acceleration performance is better than that of the larger Model Y Performance.
