I think it's the same form factor as the first car, but they camouflaged the rear triangle of the side windows as well.

Hm, "Factory Chrome Delete" is a Model Y option only, right?
I believe chrome delete is standard on Model Y. See configurator.

For some reason, I don't think they meant camo
It depends. Most stops on trips are 15 minutes, they would also be 15 minutes if no charging took place. 15 minutes appears to be enough to get to the next SC, with some exceptions where the distance is too far. Charging faster wouldn't help since that's not the longest part of the stop. Because the battery produces more heat while driving when the SOC is below 50%, the extra heat might cause the charging rate to be reduced. So depending upon your speed, SC distance, and the terrain or weather conditions any arbitrary strategy might or might not be faster. YMMV

A long wheel base 3 says a couple of things. (Assuming not photoshopped)
Information leaks are no longer a problem.
When there is a leak we can be confident it’s intentional.
And it means we have no clue what other surprises are in store. I like that. It means shorts are walking blindfold through a mine field.

Obviously, Elon has perfected the technology of liquid metal. The car can be whatever shape the local market demands.

And it could fit a bigger batterypack
A long wheel base 3 (LWB3) is thus the perfect robotaxi, is it not? One can almost hear the cogs turning in Elon’s brain.

9 cars per truck for U.S. team driver transport trucks:
"An American commercial car carrier typically fits between 5 and 9 cars, depending on the car size and trailer model (capacity is limited by an 80,000 lb weight cap that a road vehicle is subject to under U.S. law."
Note that the total capacity of 9 cars includes 1 carried over the truck cab, which of course won't work with current Tesla Semi's, due to the aero fairing.

Or, the production rate has increased and so has shipping. Don't think of it as a wave, think of it as a tsunami flood.
Likely 7K Model 3s per week right now, headed to 10K/wk by 2020Q1.
Cheers!
