Earlier today, a wrapped Tesla Model Y was seen in north of Los Angeles as the chief executive Elon Musk reiterates that the new version will not arrive this year.
In response to a Subscription-limited post on X, Elon Musk addressed the rumors asking Sawyer Merritt, the most influential Tesla content creator, to stop teasing that a new version will hit the market before the year end.
“There is no new Model Y this year. Please stop hinting that there is, as it damages our sales of the current version,” Musk wrote, reacting to Sawyer Merritt’s post suggesting that anticipation for a refreshed version could negatively impact Model Y sales in the coming months.
Codenamed “Juniper,” the revamped version of the world’s best selling vehicle in 2023 is expected to be launched in early 2025.
Last month, Elon Musk had already said on X that the revamped version will not be launched this year without unveiling when can customers can expect it.
Tesla is expected to give the revised Model Y a similar exterior makeover to the refreshed Model 3. This overhaul will likely feature a completely new face incorporating slimmer headlights. Following the updates to the Model 3, the new Model Y is set to adopt a cleaner, more aerodynamic design.
Last week, Tesla Model Y has joined the Chinese Government’s procurement list for electric vehicles, as unveiled in the newly published “Framework Agreement Procurement of EVs for Jiangsu Province Government for 2024-2025”.
This marks the first time that Tesla has been included in a government procurement catalog in China.
