Tesla is developing a new compact electric SUV priced below the $36,990 Model 3 and measuring 168 inches (4.3 meters) long—shorter than the Model 3 (185.8 inches) and Model Y (188.7 inches)—according to Reuters citing four anonymous supplier sources. The all-new design awaits CEO Elon Musk's production approval and may launch first in China before expanding to U.S. and German factories, signaling a pivot back to core vehicles after a focus on robotaxis and humanoid robots.
German automotive supplier Eberspächer is significantly expanding its China operations. CEO Jörg Steins announced plans to raise the Asia business share from eight to 24 percent. New orders for battery housings and exhaust systems support the effort.
