Electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla may be closer to providing different trims and options for the Model 3, according to a Tweet from co-founder and CEO Elon Musk.
Musk tweeted that more Model 3 options will “probably” arrive in July.
Musk’s tweet comes in response to a customer who asked when the dual-motor Model 3 will start production. Other customers also asked about interior trim options like white seats.
Musk replied that Tesla would need to start producing 5,000 Model 3s every week before the company could start making more complex variants.
So probably July

While it’s difficult to tell what is stopping Tesla from making this all-wheel drive version of the car, Musk said on Twitter that Tesla has been working towards this 5,000-Model 3s-a-week target since the end of 2017, and the company doesn’t want to do anything that could slow down its production ramp.
According to an Engadget report, Tesla has been producing around 2,000 Model 3 vehicles every week since March 2018. The company is hoping to keep ramping up production on the cheapest Tesla car.
The Model 3 starts at $45,600 CAD before incentives and customers can expect delivery in the next 12 to 18 months.
