Domestic Tesla was exposed to have secretly reduced its configuration. The official response said that it would upgrade related accessories for consumers free of charge

As Tesla's Shanghai Super Factory gradually resumes work, the delivery of domestically produced Tesla cars is gradually returning to normal. However, a car owner recently revealed that the newly-delivered domestically produced Model 3 had a "reduced configuration" problem.

In terms of details, when checking the auto parts after getting the domestic Model 3, a car owner found that the Hardware 3.0 chip that should be standard on the "Electric Vehicle Environmental Information List" was secretly replaced with Hardware 2.5. Although only a "half generation" difference, the Hardware 3.0 chip is the latest developed by Tesla, and its computing power has made a qualitative leap compared to Hardware 2.5, with the highest data processing capacity per second being 21 times that of Hardware 2.5.

On the one hand, Tesla did reduce its configuration without permission. On the other hand, the reduced accessories still have a great impact on the overall experience of the car. Therefore, it is very natural for car owners to protect their rights.

Fortunately, in response to the owners' rights protection, Tesla took a proactive approach to admitting its mistakes. According to Tesla, the reduction in configuration was mainly due to "supply chain issues". Car owners who encounter problems can contact Tesla on their own to upgrade relevant accessories.
