Tesla: Update for Model 3 - Expansion in Charging and Service Network
The Californian electric car manufacturer Tesla has launched another model refresh for its vehicles following the familiar pattern, which primarily enhances the popular Model 3. The updates to the Model 3 exterior include improvements to the trim, side lights, and door handles, with the window surrounds now in satin black instead of chrome. Additionally, the newly designed power lift trunk can now be opened at the press of a button via the touchscreen or the Tesla app. The Performance version can also now be ordered with new 20-inch Überturbine wheels.
More Efficiency: Tesla 3 Now Also with Heat Pump
The most significant change is in the interior. The Model 3 will now also be temperature-controlled with a heat pump, like the Model Y, which is intended to further increase efficiency in cold weather. The updated interior includes a matte black finish instead of the glossy, satin black door sills, as well as graphite-colored seat control elements and metal wheels on the steering wheel. The sun visors now snap into place magnetically. At the same time, the center console has been redesigned. It now features a permanently installed inductive charging pad for two smartphones and is wrapped in device-friendly microsuede. The storage compartment itself has been fitted with a sliding cover, similar to the S and X models. Moreover, there is an additional USB-A port in the glove compartment for storage devices for Sentry Mode and dash-cam recordings.
Over-the-Air: Various New Features Installed
As part of the usual "Over-the-Air Updates," several vehicle functionalities have been improved since October, such as the "Planned Departure Time," which now preheats even when the vehicle is not plugged in, as well as low electricity tariffs that can be considered based on time. The driving visualization has also been improved, and video footage from Sentry Mode is now stored on board. For the Model S and X, the charging cable can now be unlocked with a fingertip on the screen. The apps for music composition TraX and the Spotify integration, media search, preferred Bluetooth device setting, and three new games for boredom during charging breaks have also been improved. Additionally, there is a PIN option for the glove compartment. Performance in the S and X should increase due to a refined motor control of high-speed performance.
Charging Network Grows: 118 New Superchargers in Germany
The charging network has continuously expanded, with over 600 new Superchargers across Europe since the beginning of the quarter, most of which are V3 systems. In Germany, 118 charging stations (10 of which are V2) have been added in Hilden, Wörth, Knetzgau, Erharting, Oberhonnegfeld, Lippetal, Nürburgring, Weibersbrunn, Munich Pasing, and Ellwangen Hotel Montana.
Critical Point: Better Service with More Locations
In terms of consultation and service, progress has also been made: Tesla has increased the number of locations in Europe by 30 percent in 2020. This includes ten new locations that were opened across Europe in the last quarter. New locations in Germany are Hamburg Helbingtwiete, Mannheim Saarburger Ring, and Bremen Ottersberg. The growth of locations within Germany has increased the number of available service appointments by over 200 percent and reduced the waiting times for appointments by over 49 percent, with further reductions in progress, promises the manufacturer. The aim is to continue this expansion in 2021.
