In the last few days, news has come about that the Long Range Rear Wheel Drive version of the Tesla Model 3 has now started being produced in the Gigafactory in China. The car is now available to order in China too, but deliveries have not started yet. This car will cost more than the existing entry level car, the Standard Range Plus which has recently had its price dropped to below 300,000 yuan which is a smidge over £34,000 here in the UK.
