More character for Teslas Bestseller – Diepresse.com
Tesla gave his model Y extensive model maintenance after five years. It is impressive.
Tesla is not doing well. The e-car pioneer has been fighting sales since the beginning of the year. The reasons are diverse. In general, the demand for electric cars is in the sink. All manufacturers fight with that. The impression arises in social networks that Elon Musk's commitment in the Trump government is pissing off some potential buyers and turning to other brands. Of course, this cannot be proven. Possibly not yet.
Waiting for the fresh version
But one thing is clear: In the summer of 2024, it was already speculated that Tesla will give his bestseller, the model Y, an extensive upgrade. In January it was time. Logical that you are waiting for the refreshed version. But at least. The Model Y was the best -selling car in the world in 2023 and 2024. Although it was actually quite simple. You could put it like this: the engineers took a large air pump in 2020 and flown to the Model 3 on SUV size, done. Visually, the old model y hardly differ from his little brother. Cockpit the same, the front of the front, the rear section. However, the Model Y was and is the much more family -compatible car. A huge trunk, especially when the seats are overturned. Almost an echo echoes back when you call in. Endless space.
The waiting has definitely paid off. Of course, Tesla also uses the new Model Y from the company shelf. On the outside, however, it gets its own character. A continuous LED bar on the front is brand new for a Tesla. The same applies to the rear. Both new and unique. The duck beak is gone, and after five years the model Y looks more modern and sporty.

Where is the turn signal lever?
And inside? The good news right first: the turn signal lever has remained. In contrast to Model 3, X and S, Tesla has not dared to buckle all the steering levers at the new model Y and put everything on steering wheel keys. Apparently, the designers took the criticism to heart. Flashing with buttons on the steering wheel takes an extremely getting used to. Except in the roundabout, you never get used to the switches. So he stayed, the turn signal lever. But it can only do that. Beelight and wipers are keys on the steering wheel. But at least better arranged and more easily reached with the thumb than with Model 3. Well, high beam and wiper are not used as often as the indicator.
