In recent weeks, Tesla’s Cybertruck has captured all the conversations of fans of the electric car brand owned by Elon Musk. But that just changed. Today, the focus of all attention is on the expected Tesla Model 3 Performance, named Ludicrous, which has been seen in Valencia, during the recording of what appear to be promotional videos.
Until now, the 2024 Tesla Model 3 Performance had only been seen partially veiled in the United States, but its appearance in the Spanish city has left the vehicle completely exposed. Captured by the X user (formerly Twitter) @dessiewisley, it has already gone viral, sparking all kinds of reactions.
As was already rumored, the Tesla Model 3 Performance in its improved version from 2024 will receive the surname Ludicrous, something that has been made evident by the insignia that appears in the right corner of its rear. In the videos broadcast on social networks, a model appears in red and another in black, revealing some changes that are very well received by users.
Sawyer Merritt, Tesla investor, has taken advantage of the viral video to confirm in his X profile some improvements of this new version, which has the highest features in the range. To begin with, its interior houses high-performance sports bucket-type racing seats. The wheels feature aerodynamic caps and the car features red brake calipers.
The Model 3 Ludicrous also features a front splitter, a snazzy rear spoiler, and a lowered suspension. “Although it looks similar, the badge is not Plaid. It is a Ludicrous insignia,” explains Merrit in another follow-up publication in
Not many more details have emerged than those seen at first glance about the new Tesla Model 3 Performance. In any case, since it will be an improved version, its performance is expected to improve that of its predecessor. The previous model had two versions, one of them with a single 283 HP electric motor and another with two electric motors, one on each axle, with 498 HP.
Therefore, the new Model 3 Ludicrous can be expected to exceed these figures. The date of its launch is also a mystery, although rumors suggest that it will be released in the second quarter of 2024 in the United States.
