Is that led or changing to xenon style? Those xenon uses a lot of electricity. I'd be surprised if they are moving away from led

"Facelift" usually means different bodywork, bumper, etc,.

So far, I am just seeing a different type of headlight.

If this is true, what is the reason? Cost reduction?

Usually "facelift" if for a styling improvement, like to make a car look more modern.

Afaik, nobody specs factory xenons anymore.

Shame, as all the OEM xenons ive had were superior to all OEM LEDs in terms of brightness, evenness, definition, distance, etc.

But the best system overall was matrix LED. Basically the car is in high beam all the time for full environmental illumination, but the light pattern carves out cars ahead, so it does not bother other motorists.

Not just a cool thing, but immense improvement in safety. That would be great if they put in the middle 3

Model Y just came out and looks almost exactly the same as model 3. They won't drastically refresh model 3 anytime soon. IMO. Or maybe it's just something simple like headlights and front bumper cover.

I also notice in that picture of the red model 3 with different headlights it also has Hankook tires.
