Tesla's Model 3 Sedan May Get a Consumer Reports Nod After All

Tesla Inc.’s Model 3 may not be at a dead end when it comes to getting a recommendation from a magazine many consumers consult before buying a new car.

Consumer Reports is willing to re-evaluate the sedan it bought from Tesla, according to Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing at the magazine. There’s a chance the publication could recommend the car if its overall score improves enough following an over-the-air software update that Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk tweeted about Monday.
