Tesla Model 3
The Model 3 gets its first major update for 2024. The headlights, bumpers and wheels have all been redesigned. Inside, the first thing that catches the attention is the ambient lighting strip running across the dashboard and extending into the revised door panels. The centre touchscreen is now slightly larger at 15.4 inches and integrates gear selection. New technologies, extra sound-deadening materials and a bigger trunk in the rear are also part of the package.
