Avid Tesla watchers quickly noticed the similarities between the uncovered Model 3 at the Kennedy Space Center and the two upgraded Model 3 Performance units that were spotted in Valencia, Spain in late February. Similar to the two fully-uncovered Model 3 Performance units in Valencia, the vehicle in the recent sighting had a more aggressive fascia and larger wheels compared to the Model 3 RWD and Model 3 Long Range units being delivered to customers today.
A number of key details about the upcoming upgraded Model 3 Performance were revealed at last month’s Valencia, Spain, sighting. These included a dedicated “Ludicrous” badge at the rear, bucket racing seats, a larger rear diffuser, spoiler, and new aero wheels. Interestingly enough, the Model 3 at the Kennedy Space Center was equipped with non-aero wheels.

While Tesla has not explained the presence of the upgraded Model 3 Performance at the Kennedy Space Center, it should be noted that the location is home to the storied Launch and Landing Facility (LLF), one of the longest runways in the world that measures 3.2 miles from end to end. The site has become quite popular among car enthusiasts, with vehicles like the Bugatti Chiron and the McLaren Speedtail conducting high-speed runs at the location.
