If a refreshed Model 3 bumps it's sales and Model Y then drops a bit that's maybe not a bad thing. They'll have to stop making the Y when they retool like they are doing with the 3 now. Some lower demand for a short while will help with that, especially if the 3 is picking up some of that sales slack.
I do think though a lot of the changes can go into the Y very quickly as they share a lot of parts. Also they could likely change bumper and lights without a massive headache. I think the changes to the 3 here are more serious as it's getting the advancements they made to the Y backported.
It's even mentioned that the car could be a bit longer. Maybe room to fit in the filter for Bioweapon Defence Mode? What about a slightly larger battery capacity or just the same capacity with cheaper, lower density batteries?
I'm hoping this is like the Model S and X refresh and it's pretty substantial.
