Guess they gave up covering them? 🤣

No point in covering when the car’s been officially revealed and on sale. These are likely deliveries

The car is out and shipping. They cover them before they're revealed to the public but not after. The covered ones you're seeing in the bay are very likely juniper Model Y Performance trims with different front/rear bumpers that haven't been revealed to the public yet.

Covered towings are very expensive compared to uncovered. Covered would probably only be for testing models

It costs more to cover. Usually only done for specific customers.

not really a secret now.

They could be test drive cars

Ya it’s not but I’m just saying the ones I’ve seen on the road driving are still being covered in Fremont Newark and in Palo Alto. This is the first time I’ve seen them uncovered even tho they are being towed

Ya I was saying the same thing but still see the ones being driven covered in Fremont, Newark and Palo Alto. Unless those are the performance trim like @fs454 mentioned

Ahh ok this makes total sense now! I been curious as to why I only been seeing covered ones on the road but these were not. Thanks for the input! Is there any release date for the showing of the Performance trims?

Will have to do more research on this model. Haven’t been keeping up with teslas. I don’t own one but have been thinking to buy one in the next year or two and definitely been loving the model Y the best

Just got my VIN (Alberta, Canada), maybe one of those is mine?!

no red : (

The secret is out it's official they don't need to be camo wrapped anymore 😂😂 there is no secret

That would be cool haha! Did you look up the VIN and see where yours was built?

Never thought to look, starts with a F so probably Fremont.

someone pointed out on X that one wore a set of P Zero E. so very likely the performance.

Are they covering the cars due to the threat of burning?

So them it's probably that.

No.

The reveal was like a month ago and the car is currently for sale. What are you on?

No. Reddit isn't real life. 99.999% of people aren't so politically extreme that they'd burn cars to support their tribe. They were covered before because the design wasn't revealed yet.

how’d they manage to make them even uglier than they already were

Bro they are already being delivered, already some sales done here

There’s nothing to cover. Looks the same every year. lol.

They are covered so woke people don’t throw rock at the truck driver and/or the cars. Not a well respected brand

people probably won’t burn Tesla cars but they will see directly at your political views. That could be uncomfortable around peers, friends and strangers (comment based on Tesla market and sales crashing in perceived democratic countries)

I live in a blue city and it literally hasn't been a problem at all. Probably only would be somewhat of a problem (maybe) in the most extreme blue areas, which is a small minority. No, Tesla sales are not "crashing" lol. Model Y sales are down because they shut down the factories to transition to the new Model Y. The same thing happened with Model 3 a year ago and Model S/X four years ago. Model Y is their top-selling car, so the impact will be high, but temporary.

You're cherry-picking dates. Go back a year and the stock is actually *up* today compared to back then. So the reality is it increased a ton and then decreased partially back down, but still increased overall. Acknowledge the new Model Y, or you're just as bad as the "journalists" writing these sensationalist headlines. I suspect you're a warrior for a political tribe rather than someone rational, but feel free to prove me wrong.

[https://www.foxnews.com/video/6369787040112](https://www.foxnews.com/video/6369787040112) good news! fox entertainment agrees with you! “rhetoric“ is the gops new word for woke.

Yes, yes. Stock almost always crashes before a new model is launched. See it all the time

I didn't say the stock went down because of the new model launch. If you're so confident about why the stock decreased 50%, then can you also explain why the stock increased 100% right before that? Go ahead.

I appreciate you taking the time to converse on this topic even though it’s a not great forum for me to have entered. It seems like you all are excited about these cars and are hoping the uproar will end soon i will move to another forum. All the best!

Yeah the cars are great. I love mine. I don't think political extremists will go away any time soon lol. I wish people were smarter, but unfortunately they aren't. Have a good one.

One last reply - people who care about what’s happening in DC are not extremists or stupid. Times are different now and people like myself who never cared about politics in the past are paying attention about all we can do is stop buying their products and look askance at people who do

real hahah

You aren’t “paying attention” - you are adopting the easiest political view shoved in front of you. A huge difference.

Why would they cover them?

I’ve seen at least 3 with temp tags in my area. It’s for sale and released atp.
