This Novitec Tesla Model 3 Shows Real Predator Attitude

For tuning fans, the name Novitec needs no presentation. The German company has been over the years responsible for exciting projects, based on cars manufactured by Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren, and the likes.

Recently, a new brand joined the list of Novitec targets: Tesla. Having already designed tuning kist for the Model S and X, Novitec took it upon itself, now that the Model 3 is available in Europe as well, to come up with a package for this nameplate as well.

And here it is.

As usual, the tuner didn’t waste time in tampering with the car’s powertrain but chose instead to alter performance levels by modifying some of the other components. It added body enhancements, suspension upgrades, and new wheels.

Visually, the tweaks made by Novitec are among the best we’ve on a Model 3. The car features new front and rear spoilers, diffusor, and side panels, but designed in such a way as not to ruin the recognizable shape of the vehicle.

All these extra components are made of carbon fiber, to keep the weight down, and will help improve aerodynamic efficiency. It’s not yet clear how big of an increase in range will these changes bring, but a few extra miles might be gained in the end.

Not visible with the naked eye, the new suspension system – comprising a coilover solution with sport spring set – help the Model 3 show an improved stance, one that is more appropriate for a wannabe segment leader.

Rounding off the changes are the 21-inch alloy wheels. Novitec says they have been chosen because no adjustment needs to be done to fit them, keeping the default vehicle set up and programming. As an extra, these wheels have been specifically designed for the Model 3.

Some changes are visible at the interior as well, where the tuner opted to offer leather and Alcantara in any color and patterns requested.

Pricing for the tuning kit was not announced.
