Model 3 Refresh
MODEL 3 REFRESH, A GLIMPSE AT WHAT’S NEW’ Text : Martin Gillet

Since Model 3 arrived to us, you have been requesting new features and updates. You have probably followed the introduction of Model 3 throughout the past Supercharged editions.
Frunk has shrunk a little bit although no big deal. Technical material seems also updated which is making the closing of the frunk easier.
The Tesla Model 3 is the first vehicle built on Tesla’s third-generation platform. Its main objective was to reduce the entry price for electric vehicles while not making any compromise on range and performance.
‘This is the cool part of Tesla says Bjørn Nyland : ‘They keep implementing incremental changes to their products’.
End of 2020, Tesla introduced more updates on Model 3, for our greatest pleasures. We wanted to review them as many of you are reading Supercharged at the Service Centers and perhaps the information has not reached you yet. One of the major new features is the transition from single glass to double glass (in the front) in the latest Model 3. It might not decrease the noise level but rather optimize the warming of the car during summer time perhaps.
The version compared by Bjørn Nyland came with chrome delete whereas his own car was delivered with chrome. Testing the trunk, it was also highlighted that now it comes with a motorized liftgate (say finally !) for our great convenience. Tesla also added new wheel caps, perhaps better looking as reported by the Community. A nifty well awaited feature is the headlights update, which provides a better rendering at night while driving. In the ‘old Model 3’, we had 2 USB A ports in the back whereas the ‘new Model 3’ has 2 USB C ports.
