A recent sighting at Tesla’s Giga Texas factory has sparked rumors and speculation about a new vehicle variant. Drone footage captured by Joe Tegtmeyer revealed a large crated vehicle body with a distinctive shape, featuring a sloping roofline and elongated body. Many believe that this mysterious crate contains the Model Y L, an extended version of Tesla’s popular electric SUV designed to accommodate six or seven passengers comfortably.
The Model Y L has already been successful in boosting sales in China and is set to launch in Australia, New Zealand, South Korea, Thailand, and potentially the European market. However, Elon Musk has hinted that production of a similar model in the United States may not begin until late 2026, as the company is currently focused on ramping up production of the Cybertruck.
While speculation about the identity of the mysterious vehicle continues, some skeptics have pointed out differences in the rear height of the frame in the crate compared to known images of the Chinese version of the Model Y L. This has led to alternative theories suggesting that the vehicle could be a prototype for a Tesla minivan or a larger commercial hauler.
Regardless of the true identity of the vehicle in the crate, the excitement and anticipation surrounding Tesla’s potential new model are palpable. Whether it’s a larger Model Y L variant, a Tesla minivan, or something entirely unexpected, fans of the electric car company are eagerly awaiting more information and confirmation from Tesla. Stay tuned for updates as the mystery unfolds.
