Jeez that’s $75k USD, can almost get a cybertruck with that bread. Also <3 Taiwan :)
Looks amazing

Ugh black. my m3p is black. Its nice too much of a pain to keep clean, so I just dont anymore. Next car anything but black. If you have time to keep it clean its top, if not go for a lighter color. QS or White or that new blue.
Nahhh , white or blue for sure
My same sentiments after owning over 8 black cars including a model 3. My X is red and it's such a change of lifestyle, especially if you're anal retentive about keeping your cars clean.
Yeah i hate those silver rims
Reminds me of Uber. Idk why
Updated the lights but went back in time for the wheels Does not match the design at all
This is why I think gunmetal or similar is the best. It hides dust and scratches pretty well.
Are they trying to copy generic cheap Chinese styling ?
Thing looks so cheap

Only $2.4MM
Really like the contrast that the light bar offers, but this is starting to look more and more like some type of cheap cab. Let’s hope ride quality has significantly improved.
Wow Tesla has outdone themselves. Seamlessly beautiful
Who makes it ?
What's it called?
That's almost exactly how much I paid for my M3LR with FSD in 2019 🤣
it took them 5 months to restock their black paint so only taiwan are getting that color
So boring looking, looks like a BYD or some other nameless Chinese SUV.

i'm waiting to see which one turns out better before purchasing in the US. The new Model Y or the Rivian R2
TELL US THE NAME
Tbh I’ve been holding off on ordering a MY waiting on Juniper, and after seeing the wheels (and no option to change yet) I can’t see myself ordering a launch edition. I know I could just order and replace the wheels, but without seeing Tesla Black wheels on the car it’s not worth the effort.

I want to reserve judgement on the refresh, buuuut first impressions are… not great. Smashing together design elements from the old Y, refreshed 3, and Cybertruck, along with different front/rear lightbar styles, makes for a very schizophrenic look
$74,000 USD? pricey
Dude, just get the wheels powder coated any color of your choosing for $500-$800
In Taiwan, Tesla only sells cars made in US or Germany. The product description indicates it will be delivered in 5-6 months. Since the current Model Ys in Taiwan are made in Germany, it likely indicates Berlin factory will start delivering the new Model Ys around May or June.
This also suggests Berlin factory will start Juniper deliveries in May or June as chinese-made cars are not allowed to be imported into Taiwan, for good reason

R2 is looking really good, and it has SC access, although I personally don't like the frontend. The issue though is that the R2 will be 400V, and this Tesla probably also will be 400V and it isn't the movie to 800V in the US; i'd be pleasantly surprised if it was the first 800V non-CT Tesla. Tesla V4 cabinet SCs are getting 800V support soon, but it looks like only CT (and third party cars) will be able to take advantage of that for a long while, unfortunately. Meanwhile the Taycan is the king of road trips because of its 800V architecture that enables it to charge just so incredibly fast.
Given it came out in China first...
2 million bones is crazy
Honestly white is almost as bad. The side is covered with little mud splatters every time it rains which show up tremendously obviously against white.
black m3 here the fine scratches are all over the place
Yeah I wanted to know what it converted too and was surprised!
Yes step 1 now rims !
Average that they kept the LR M3 wheels from a model ago on the new series
Unimpressed they should have updated the batteries
At All.

Dude, seeing a detroit fan on another thread is always great, but seeing you left out "piston" on an ev subdued just lands. Go lions and ftp!
Very cool 😎
It's so generic looking. The light bar is such a basic bitch move.
I made this name 10 years ago, they were more irrelevant 10 years ago than now with their new coach who seems great. I could still hop on a bandwagon for basketball if I need to, but I’ll never be ride or die like I am for the lions and wings.
“Schizophrenic” is a good way to describe it. I think I would have been okay with the cyber-esque lighting if they matched the quarter panels and doors thus changing the silhouette. Instead, they just mashed up 3 to 4 different generations of cars into one. I get the reasoning, so they can borrow parts between the M3 and MY for savings but it looks terrible IMO. I don’t get why they wouldn’t just leave the MY with the styling of the 2024 M3 which looks coherent IMO. Maybe would have been smarter for savings and borrowing parts between the two. And they could have just added a rear light bar to differentiate while using the existing parts/design. Kind of befuddling.

I like the original commenter am just using the word the way the dictionary describes it. https://preview.redd.it/0byrmeowtkce1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a8ee041ca6c28bfe6297bf1c98fe5ec7c5dc2a66
I think with Tesla‘s black, you really need a ceramic coating. Else it will look dull in no time. I like my white.
Grey and red are where it's at. Won't show scratches so easily, won't show dirt so easily.
I feel you. I had a black Wrangler and a bit of salt dust on the road dirties the car so easily. Never getting a black car again, even though it looks so good when it’s clean. That’s why I chose white!
lol this is not a serious opinion.
Personally, I’m waiting for the R3. That’ll likely be my next car.
800v isn’t doing anything to increase the charge curve. At a cell level the voltage is the same regardless of the pack voltage. The higher voltage just lets you push more energy through the cable to the pack. Tesla pushes considerably more amps than CCS, so 800v isn’t nearly as necessary. CCS is capped at 500 amps, where superchargers routinely hit 650 amps, with the cybertruck pulling 850 amps at a handful of existing stations, all at 400v. The Taycan has great charging due to its cell chemistry and cooling. If the Y could hold it’s current max current for the same duration the Taycan could it would also be a road trip monster, even at 400v
R2 isn’t in production until some time in ‘26.
I’ve had silver cars since 2011, the color is great at hiding dirt and scratches. In fact, i haven’t washed my MX since august 2023.
Not really comparable class vehicle though
The R3 will have a similar size to the Y and starting price is supposed to be around $37,000. I’d say it’s in the same class of vehicle.
And perhaps to see of Rivian remains in business given it looses 39k per vehicle. And, no FSD!
I bought my model 3 RWD for ~$161,000 USD, yes it sucks to love/ needing cars in Singapore
Can't wait for the R2!!
Same. I’ve always wanted a black car and after 6 years I’m ready to switch away since it gets dirty the moment after it’s washed!
Wow I've never seen a car in black! Quality post.
why would anyone pay for FSD when it was just a future promise, not proven? You must have money to burn!
I'm looking forward to the scout. I hope it lives up to the hype I have for it.
It looks like the premium vehicle in uber app😆
Totally agree. They look like older design.
The Lunch edition
ALL BLACK ERETHANG’
This new Y is going to be a 45-62k vehicle like the old one was before the incentives came along. Definitely a price bracket up from a 37,000 dollar car.
This is going to really come down to whether you care about FSD more or cargo room/height more (unless you’re into off-roading).
does rivian have the tesla autopilot? i'm not talking about small street fsd but the highway version. I use autopilot on the highway way more than full blown fsd.
P=V*I, so 800V @ 500a is the equivalent of 400V @ 1000a. Just saying, voltage does matter. CCS is capable of greater power delivery until V4 cabinets start to roll out.
Congrats you made it look like a Prius
Long box
Long box
Yo wtf, yall are insane over there. Makes owning a car in malaysia seem cheap
I am thinking about the new model Y vs the Polestar 3 (Europe).
Tesla opting for silver wheels is as uninspiring as sitting in freeway traffic.
