Tesla is shaking up the interior of its iconic Model 3 with a new material for the trim sections. According to well-sourced Tesla enthusiast Chris Zheng, the wood trim sections will be replaced with a bonded foam non-woven fabric. This change is part of Tesla’s aggressive drive to simplify manufacturing processes and reduce costs.
The current wooden trim runs along the width of the dash in the Tesla Model 3 and has extended to the doors in some models. The new material will provide a higher density look around the trims and give a more modern look to the aging Tesla Model 3. It will also form part of the imminent hardware 4.0 changes that are expected to include higher-resolution cameras for the full self-driving suite.
The potential change to the same colour for both types of interiors would simplify the manufacturing process further and reduce stock management time. Tesla has yet to share images of the updated interior, but more details are expected to come to light at the upcoming investor day, which will be streamed live on Twitter and YouTube.
The refreshed interior of the Tesla Model 3 is sure to be well received by those looking to upgrade their current Tesla Model 3. With this change, Tesla is continuing its mission to make electric vehicles more affordable and accessible to everyone.
