Let's not forget that at 35K, Model 3 will probably lose out on a thick 4-digit figure worth of lifetime supercharging. The entry level Model S sould be reduced by $5K or so for comparison. Of course only a part of the miles driven will be SUC powered, but these cars are not to have a short life. And electricity can almost only become more expensive.
The model S/X will likely be moved further upscale. Tesla has found plenty of buyers for super premium S/X. No reason not to keep that going. The dash and screens will be redone. Maybe a passenger screen will get added. The model 3 perhaps gets a basic HUD. The S/X perhaps gets a superset of the model 3 HUD functionality.
The glass roof just added to model S signals that the model 3 will always be a subset of the model S.
But I do think that the model 3 becomes Tesla's mainstream sedan. It absolutely overlaps with the lower priced S today. The model S may have sheet metal changes coming when the Porsche electric arrives.
