Tesla's redesigned Model Y will land in North America in March at a price of $ 60,000
Tesla announced that its redesigned Model Y SUV will land in the United States, Canada and Mexico in March, with a slight starting price of less than $ 60,000.
Just two weeks ago, Tesla released the new Model Y, saying that this SUV will land in China and other Asian markets in March. The announcement on Thursday means that the company is actually launching this modified SUV at the same time worldwide, which is different from the months between 2023 and the beginning of 2024 in Asia and North America.
The re -designed Model Y launching at a critical moment at Tesla, the company's delivery volume in 2024 was less than 2023. Tesla has repeatedly warned investors that after the success of Model Y, the company is in the “two major growth waves” and promised to launch a mysterious new model based on existing production lines. These models may be cheaper than Bitsla's current products (starting at 40,000 US dollars), but it is not clear how cheaper.
CEO Elon Musk hinted that these new models, Cyber Cab, who was laughed at last October last year, will help the company evolve from car manufacturers to robots and artificial intelligence players.
But at the same time, Tesla's model lineup is constantly aging. Tesse has updated each of its core models -Model S and 3 cars, and Model X and Y SUVs. In the past four years, it only launched a real new model: Cyber Truck. Although Cyber Truck became the best -selling electric truck in the United States in 2024, it rarely increased its company's profits last year, and it did not seem to reach what Musk wanted.
The new Model Y may bring some relief, although its price is higher than the existing version. The full -wheel drive version of the special version of “Launch Series” starts at $ 59,990. This provides buyers with a 320 -mile battery life battery, and includes Tesla's most advanced driving auxiliary software, which is called “fully autonomous driving (supervised)” -usually priced at $ 8,000. The older Model Y currently 337 -mile rear -wheel drive version starts at $ 44,990.
The most significant change of the new Model Y is the appearance. The bubble front instrument panel has been abandoned, and replaced it with a tighter nose and a thin light strip extending to the hood. The rear of the vehicle now also has a light band extending to the entire width.
In this new SUV, Tesla adds a configurable lamp zone around the cab. There is a new rear passenger touch screen and some quality of life upgrades, such as electric rear seats and improved suspensions.
