New photos of Tesla’s Black Matte Model 3 are jaw-dropping

When Tesla unveiled the Model 3 a few months ago, it showcased a few different models with varying colors and a few different rim designs. And sure, the silver Model 3 looks pretty sleek, but the real head-turner at Tesla's March 31 event was the matte black Model 3 prototype.

In fact, once pre-orders for the Model 3 got underway, Tesla CEO Elon Musk took to Twitter and declared that demand and interest for the all-black Tesla Model 3 was unexpectedly high and that the design would likely make it to production. Recall, first deliveries for the car are slated to begin in late 2017, but given Tesla's penchant for product delays, you might want to take Tesla's production timeline with a grain of salt.
