2025 Model Y: Worth the Upgrade or Wait for the Price Drop?
A recent YouTuber review of the 2025 Model Y has me intrigued, but also hesitant. The improvements sound fantastic: quieter cabin, smoother ride, better handling. A 30% comfort increase over the previous generation is a significant jump. However, the reviewer's concerns about FSD performance and the current price premium over older, discounted models raise some serious questions.
So, what are your thoughts? Is a slightly refined driving experience, new rims, and a light bar enough to justify buying the 2025 Model Y now? Or does the reviewer's advice to wait for the non-Launch Series in May for a potential price drop hold more weight?
I'm curious to hear from those who have test-driven the 2025 Model Y. Do the improvements live up to the hype? Are the FSD issues as concerning as the reviewer suggests?
Perhaps even more interesting is the bigger picture. Does this incremental upgrade strategy signal a shift in Tesla's approach? Are we moving away from revolutionary leaps in technology and towards more iterative refinements? Where does this leave those of us holding onto older Model Ys? Is the upgrade path compelling enough to justify the expense, or are we better off waiting for more substantial advancements?
Let the debate begin!
