Tesla Model 3 'Highland' now shipping in Europe
The updated Tesla Model 3, also known as 'Highland' has started shipping to buyers in Europe. A lucky few from Germany and the Netherlands have gone on X (formerly Twitter) to boast of their just-arrived Model 3's.
If you go on Tesla's German configurator you'll get a 2 to 6-week estimate for the Model 3 Highland. Meanwhile, potential buyers in the States get the old model with a November shipping estimate. It's unclear when the new Model 3 will become available to US buyers.
The car is also on sale in China and there have been reports of a fleet of new Model 3s being readied for shipment in China, but it appears Germany was first.
The updated Model 3 brings a more aerodynamic design with new, thinner headlights and redesigned tail lights, better inside sound isolation, a revamped interior, and a rear touchscreen display.

TBH, I really hate that tail light redesign in terms of safety, but other than that, it is now a really better car than before. Less powerful, more of a better commuter.
