The third-generation version of Elon Musk's car manufacturing company is making waves. Considering that the Model 3 will become the least expensive unit in the electric automobile market, potential buyers have their eyes set on the launching date.

Priced at $35,000, Tesla's next roadster will be out during the latter part of the year. The tech organization has made it known that the affordable unit rate made no impact on the vehicle's performance.

With the production deadline just half a year away, Jennifer Liang of the popular Chinese research company KGI has revealed that a supply chain assessment was made. It has been discovered that Tesla is pouring all its resources to complete the manufacturing process of the Model 3.

A latest update has unveiled that the electric car firm is tackling system integrators along the production lines while reinforcing automation parts. According to the Liang, compared to the stock handling of the Model S and X, Tesla has added some resources to keep up with the deadline attached to the Model 3.

It should be noted that components of the previous vehicles have been shipped to the tech group's Fremont site in California for the final stages of assembly. With the new electric car, a couple of supply chains from China and Thailand have helped supply the needed parts. With automation specialist Grohmann Engineering in the fold, the production of Model 3 will only go faster.

The current development is definitely essential to Tesla's plight. With more than 400,000 pre-orders in the pipeline, the organization is ready to roll with their suppliers. This scenario is in direct contrast during the manufacturing of the Model S when Elon Musk and his team had a hard time seeking out contractors that will work with Tesla.

In Taiwan, the tech group has found a partner in automobile expert Hota. Add to that, the presence of Bizlink whose specialization focuses on wiring harness.

Although things are going well for the Model 3 recently, Tesla has done an exceptional job of not setting an exact date to deliver pre-ordered units. The pressure is actually less since CEO Elon Musk has simply provided an estimated figure, which was pegged between 100,000 to 200,000 vehicles, with regard to the number of cars the organization will be delivering for 2017.
