The Tesla Model Y just got a refresh in China, and it has everyone talking. A sleeker design, tech upgrades including a rear display, and a supposed range boost to 447 miles on the CLTC cycle… sounds impressive, right? But will this translate to real-world EPA numbers? And more importantly, when will we see this updated Model Y in North America?
The price hike is also a point of contention. Over five percent more for this updated version. Is it worth it? The improved aerodynamics, revised suspension, and quieter ride certainly sound appealing, but are these changes enough to justify the premium?
The interior updates, mirroring the recent Model 3 refresh, introduce an 8-inch rear display. While offering more control for passengers, does this further push the minimalist aesthetic too far? Are we losing essential tactile feedback for a purely digital experience? And what about the long-term implications of software-dependent controls?
Let’s not forget the elephant in the room: Full Self-Driving. Still labeled “Supervised,” it continues to raise questions about its true capabilities and the timeline for fully autonomous driving. Is this the future of driving, or are we still years away?
Share your thoughts! Is this Model Y refresh a game-changer or just an incremental update? Are you willing to pay the premium? What are your biggest hopes and concerns for this latest iteration?
