We’re all eager to see what Tesla has in store with its upcoming smaller sedan, the Model 3 – or “III” as it’s expected to be spelled.

The model has never ever been spotted, not even in mule form sporting a different body, but according to a recent report we could see it debut (possibly as a concept) in March of 2016 (earlier than previous guesstimates).

AutoExpress states with some certainty that the model will come to next year’s Geneva motor show, although first deliveries are not expected to commence until mid-2017.

Not much else is new in the source report though – it’s all stuff we’ve heard before…

Its author does believably speculate that if Tesla really is eyeing an (eastern) European manufacturing location it could very well be to build this very model there.
