Tesla enthusiasts have been eagerly awaiting news of a Model Y refresh, and it seems that their patience may soon pay off. According to reports from Tesla North, the electric car company is gearing up to start production on a new Model Y variant, codenamed “Juniper,” which is rumored to incorporate updates seen in the latest Model 3.
Recent checks of Tesla’s website have revealed that estimated delivery dates for the Model Y RWD have been extended to May 2025 in certain regions. This extension suggests that Tesla is likely in the process of reconfiguring its manufacturing lines at Giga Shanghai in preparation for the new Model Y.
Notably, markets such as Slovakia and the UAE are among those showing delivery dates of May 2025, indicating that Tesla may be exporting the refreshed Model Y from Giga Shanghai to these regions. Hong Kong, on the other hand, is showing a shorter estimated delivery time of 2-3 months for the RWD Model Y.
In China, where Giga Shanghai is located, delivery dates for the Model Y are currently ranging from 1-3 weeks. This could hint at the possibility of the new Model Y making its debut in China before being rolled out to other markets.
Excitement for the rumored Model Y refresh is building, especially after sightings of the new model in San Jose, California. Speculations suggest that the updated Model Y will feature new headlights and a potential light bar on the rear. With anticipation growing, Tesla fans are eagerly awaiting more details on what the refreshed Model Y will entail.
As Tesla continues to innovate and push the boundaries of electric vehicle technology, the upcoming Model Y refresh promises to offer even more features and enhancements to appeal to consumers. Stay tuned for more updates as Tesla prepares to unveil the revamped Model Y in the coming months.
