Tesla readies revamp of Model Y codenamed 'Juniper': sources — via drivingdotca NewVehicles LuxuryVehicles ElectricVehicles
Tesla has already been working to retool its Shanghai assembly plant to prepare for a revamped version of its Model 3 sedan, a project codenamed “Highland” by Tesla, Reuters has reported. The Highland version of the Model 3 is expected to go into production in Shanghai in September, according to a person with knowledge of the matter.
With Highland, Tesla is aiming to cut production costs and boost the appeal of an electric sedan that first went on sale in 2017, people involved in the project have said. There will also be changes to the exterior and powertrain performance with a focus on production efficiency, they said. At the investor day event scheduled to be held at its Gigafactory in Texas on Wednesday, Tesla has said it will share details about its next-generation vehicle platforms, which Musk has said would produce a vehicle about half the cost of Tesla’s current vehicle underpinnings. Tesla also said it will discuss long-term expansion plans, capital allocation and other subjects.
