Or perhaps they prefer the updated specifications that Tesla gave the Model 3 Highland, such as the revamped 17 speaker sound system. Perhaps they want the longer 629 km WLTP range that the Model 3 LR offers. Or whatever the reason might be, they might want to get the new Model 3 Highland instead of the Model Y.<\/p>\n
