Tesla adds 16-inch display to North American Model 3

Tesla has added a 16-inch central touchscreen to all Model 3 trims sold in the United States, Puerto Rico and Mexico, expanding a change introduced in China a day earlier. The front-row display grows from 15.4 inches to 16 inches, including on the rear-wheel-drive base model, while pricing remains unchanged. Performance and range figures were also adjusted for dual-motor variants, but Tesla did not explain the changes.

Ioniq 5 holds ground in U.S. market despite loss of tax credit

Hyundai Motor’s Ioniq 5 sold more than 30,000 units in the United States through September, keeping sales relatively high among major electric vehicles despite a broader slowdown in EV demand. U.S. sales from January to September totalled 31,112 units, down 24 percent from a year earlier. Sales fell after a federal tax credit for new EVs ended in late September last year, although Hyundai cut prices on some 2026 Ioniq 5 trims.
