Tesla had previously vowed not to resort to the expensive “lifts” typical of traditional automakers.

Since 24 Hours, a photo posted on Reddit of a black uncovered car has stirred the web. It appears to be a Tesla Model 3 facelifted, seen inside a hangar in Florida.

The image hints at a new headlight design maintaining the Tesla signature and the removal of the fog lights, now integrated into the main LED matrix technology unit.

This photo aligns with recent reports indicating that Tesla plans to update its popular flagship model in the third quarter of 2023. Internally, this project is called “Highland”.

On this photo, a cap is clearly visible in front of the driver’s seat. An information block could be placed there, unlike the current model where all information is grouped on the central display. This setup is admittedly less innovative than the current one but more ergonomic, especially regarding driving assistance information. The highly informed site Not a Tesla App echoed this earlier this week.

No ultrasonic sensors seem to be integrated into the front bumper; the American brand is likely continuing with “Tesla Vision,” which relies not on radars or sensors but on a camera.
