Hey everybody Rob Bauer here and today we are talking about a possible leaked image of

0:11.5

Tesla's expected upcoming Model 3 update also known as Project Highland.

0:15.6

We've also got some new information on the production rate for Megapack out of Tesla's

Megafactory in Blathrup and we'll take a look at today's PPI report and a couple of other
