Tesla has revealed an official rendering of what looks like a model that could likely slot in below the Model 3 and Y to become the new entry level electric vehicle offered by the Californian carmaker and it could be built in China. It currently offers four models and has plans to make a new roadster, a semi-truck, the Cybertruck and a quad bike too.

The image, circulating on social media, appears to portray an electric hatchback which could target the likes of the Nissan Leaf, Chevrolet Bolt and the Volkswagen ID.3.
###
Along with the “Made in China” Model 3, it appears that Tesla China is commencing the process of setting up a centre to create a “designed in China” electric vehicle for the global market.
###
A small, affordable electric vehicle – made in high volume at Tesla’s Gigafactory 3 and be exported around the world – would make a lot of business sense and it would be a welcome new addition to the Tesla fleet.
###
“I think this will be very exciting. I think China has some of the best art in the world, and I think it’s something that would be appreciated on a worldwide basis. I think it should be done, and we’re gonna do it,” Elon Musk, Tesla’s CEO said.
