NEW TESLA MODEL 3 COMING SOON, MERCEDES BRINGING BACK THE V8 + MORE! WEEKLY UPDATE

EV Channels Review

This weekly update covers several significant automotive news items, with a primary focus on the upcoming refresh of the Tesla Model 3. The report suggests the new Model 3 is entering trial production in China, with mass production and deliveries expected to commence in October, potentially at a more aggressive price point than the current model. Other key topics include the reported cancellation of the next-generation Genesis G70, the limited-edition Nissan Skyline Nismo (Infiniti Q50 equivalent) for Japan, and Mercedes-AMG's rumored return to V8 engines for the C63 and E63 models due to lukewarm reception of their four and six-cylinder powertrains. The update also touches on upcoming debuts at Monterey Car Week, including the Lamborghini EV prototype and the Infiniti QX Monograph concept, as well as details on the 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe and a potential smaller EV Defender from Land Rover. Fisker's future lineup (Alaska, Pear, Ronin) and the end of Nissan Titan production are also discussed.
