According to foreign media reports, according to sources at Tesla's Shanghai Super Factory, the upgrade and renovation of Tesla's production line in Shanghai has been completed. Previously, Tesla's Shanghai factory had to spend time installing integrated die-casting machines and other equipment to produce the new Model 3 Highland, resulting in a rare drop in delivery volume in July.

　　Tesla's new Model 3 has been redesigned and the price may be lower. As early as November 2022, Reuters reported that the focus of the Model 3 redesign would be to further reduce the number of components and reduce the complexity of the interior. Tesla's adoption of integrated die-casting and removal of excess components may reduce its production costs by up to 14%, which may mean that the Model 3 Highland will be priced lower when it is launched in October.

　　According to reports, Tesla has set an initial monthly production capacity of 10000 units for the Model 3 Highland, which could reach 7000 units in August alone. Tesla's Shanghai factory has begun large-scale trial production of the Model 3 Highland, indicating that the car is expected to be released in October.

　　The Tesla Fremont factory in California should also begin production of the Model 3 Highland shortly after the Shanghai factory, as the test vehicles for the Model 3 Highland have appeared multiple times on California roads.

　　Tesla's new Model 3 Highland is expected to feature a longer body, bolder headlight design, and a redesigned flash system. This car is expected to use a larger capacity 66kWh M3P battery produced by Ningde Times, with a longer range after charging. In terms of interior, this car may be equipped with ventilated seats and a new yoke steering wheel as an additional configuration option.
