Tesla had announced that it is working on a Model 3 refresh a couple of months earlier. But prior to its official release, the company’s Model 3 Project Highland has been leaked, offering us a look at the refreshed electric vehicle.

For those unaware, the Model 3 refresh carries the codename “Project Highland”. The upcoming EV is expected to arrive with several changes and refreshes. These updates could range from its infotainment system to its external design and more. As of right now, the American automobile maker is expected to begin the Project Highland in the third quarter of this year. Recently, the new EV has been spotted in the US, with the latest sighting revealing more of its design.

A Redditor shared an image, which reportedly offers us a first proper look at the Tesla Model 3 Project Highland. Looking at this image, parts of the EV is still covered, although we can see still see the front of the refreshed model. One of the more immediate change that can be noticed is the headlights. The next gen Model 3 appears to have a headlight design that is similar to Tesla Roadster or even its Model S.

The headlights are sleeker and offer a more sportier look compared to the version that is available for purchase right now. Another notable aspect noticeable is the absence of the fog lights. Apart from this, there also appear to be changes to the front bumper. However, the authenticity of this image being a Project Highland leak is still questionable since the upcoming Model 3 refresh has typically been spotted with protective covers on the front ends. So stay tuned for more updates regarding this matter.
