In the heart of Silicon Valley, where innovation meets the open road
0:03
a new chapter in electric mobility is being written. From its first sighting near Tesla's Palo Alto headquarters
0:10
to its global testing escapades, the Model 3 Ludicrous has sparked conversations and excitement worldwide
0:17
Today we're diving deep into what makes this Tesla's most anticipated release yet
0:22
Welcome to Vehicle Suggest. Let's get started and uncover the details behind the Tesla Model 3 Ludicrous
0:29
Our story begins near Tesla's Palo Alto HQ, where the 2024 Model 3 Plaid was first spotted
0:36
This sighting, coupled with a leak from Tesla's service manual, hinted at something big
0:41
The manual mentioned warp wheels, a detail that aligns with what was observed on the streets
0:46
These warp wheels come in two sizes, 19-inch and 20-inch, offering a range of options for potential buyers
0:54
There has been confusion among people about whether this powerhouse Model 3
0:58
will be called Plaid or Performance. Upon further review of the available information
1:04
it's confirmed that it's a Ludicrous Speed Badge rather than a Plaid Badge
1:09
Tesla's parts catalog also listed sport brakes and performance-oriented suspension components, which are important for track-worthy enhancements for the Model 3 Ludicrous
1:19
Recent leaks from South Korea have finally given us a look at its specifications
1:23
The Model 3 Ludicrous is expected to pack a punch with around 600 horsepower
1:28
thanks to its dual high-performance motors. But it's not just about power. Efficiency is key
1:33
The 79-kilowatt-hour LG battery pack is a marvel, promising around 430 kilometers of range
1:40
And despite these upgrades, the car's weight remains a sleek 1,855 kilograms
1:45
But what's a Tesla without a luxurious interior? Leaked images have revealed a sporty yet sophisticated cabin
1:52
featuring a carbon-fiber dashboard and plush black bucket seats. And in a nod to Tesla's minimalist aesthetic
1:59
the steering wheel design is sleek, without stalks, hinting at future autonomous capabilities
2:05
Interestingly, these bucket seats are not entirely new to the Tesla family
2:09
They resemble the ones that appeared in the Model S's service manual some months ago
2:14
Tesla's not just testing in the U.S. The Model 3 Ludicrous has hit the German Autobahn
2:20
showcasing its readiness for the global stage. Interestingly, an EU sticker was spotted, indicating Tesla's plans for the European market
2:29
As we edge closer to the official launch, the anticipation is palpable
2:33
So why is it getting delayed? We recently contacted a source who had previously shared insider details on the Model 3 Highland
2:42
and we got some confirmed leaks about the Tesla Model 3 Ludicrous. The production of this vehicle is happening in China
2:49
and the latest updates suggest the launch is set for May, as Tesla is still stuck with some challenges
2:55
Our insider reveals that a team of 20 engineers made their way to China
3:00
to fix the suspension and motor adaptability issues. Tesla has also started extending invitations to global media
3:08
for an exclusive test drive of its much-anticipated Model 3 Ludicrous. The combination of the recent sighting and the initiation of media test drives
3:17
indicates that the official reveal of the Model 3 Ludicrous could be just around the corner
3:22
Recently, the word Ludicrous was also found in the Tesla Model 3 online car configurator
3:29
which shows that the Model 3 Highland Ludicrous is just around the corner
3:33
The vehicle will most probably launch in the USA, China, and Europe at the same time
3:38
Our source also shared an image of an early version of the Ludicrous badge from the Shanghai factory
3:44
While suspension and new motor adaptability pose current challenges, the Ludicrous trim will shake the entire EV industry
