Tesla officially unveiled their Tesla 3 sedan last night at the company's headquarters in Hawethorne, California.  Standing in front of an excited crowd, Tesla founder Elon Musk introduced the company's new auto amid a spectacular light and effects show filled with all the expectation usually reserved for the heyday of Apple Computer.  After a brief introduction and remarks regarding the need for sustainable technology in autos three gleaming Tesla 3 autos drove on stage while an intro video played as backdrop and rousing music drove the audience to applause. 

Musk stated the introduction of the '3' will be in two parts.  Last night was the introduction of the sedan and widely expected to be the second part later this year will be a crossover or perhaps small SUV version of the 3, with falcon wing doors similar to the company's Model X SUV.   While many of the specifications on the 3 are still being kept underwraps we know that the sedan will get a minimum of 215 miles per charge and have a 0-60 time of less than 6 seconds.  The car features a gorgeous one piece wrap over glass windshield similar to the X series that geos from hood all the way back to mid-car letting the driver and passengers have a panoramic unobstructed view while driving.  The interior features a large center mounted display for all driving gauges and controls and a spartan, but futuristic looking interior.  Since the car is still in development these 'model 3' are still considered in development and we expect further refinement of the interiors.   The exterior features a swooping Tesla S like look with a bare grill area similar to the Model X and flowing attractive, sexy lines that should allow the Model 3 to compete nicely with such cars as the BMW 3 series and Audi 4000 serie. 

The company announced that before the unveiling already 115,000 customers had put down the $1000 deposit to reserve their Model 3 and as of today that number had risen to just under 200,000.  Within 2 years the company expects its gigafactory to be able to produce up to 500,000 cars a year with first deliveries coming in late 2017.   Make sure to come back to tesla3forum.com for the latest news on the Tesla 3 including tons of pictures and video.  Make sure to register and join in on the conversation and be part of the community as we continue to build your Tesla 3 online community!
