Model Y Refresh Juniper Spotted in Tahoe

Nice. Looks like the wheels' aero covers are removed.

Front just doesn't do it for me. Rear is alright though.

Im the opposite

But this looks like Hyundai Kona and Chevy Equinox combined, two cars that are generally considered not much to look at.

Very nice!

Maybe they tried chains, can't put chains on with wheel covers

I’ll take “not much to look at” over the previous frog-like front end. And I say this as a ‘21 Model 3 owner which is equally froggy.

The rear didn't do it for me from the initial leaked pictures. Love both front and back now

Yes you can

Lights are not on they don’t draw attention right now. I also think white hides them better, as well.

I think it's ugly (because I don't have one)

White looks the best so far, need more pics of black tho

I don’t necessarily dislike the new one but the more pics I see, the happier I am I got the discounted outgoing MYP

Kinda looks like the Polestar.

Does not speak luxury

It’s like they copied the new Bolt…

Rear light looks like Nissan aria.

I feel the same.

Cheap looking

Northstar?

M3 highland did a great job with the front design. I'm not sure whu MY has to be so different.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

What's the battery capacity on these bad boys?

Rear light on Arya is the only thing going for it. MY's rear light is reflected and it looks nice. Wish it was more similar to M3 highland though

Dropped by Tesla Paramus’s parking lot a couple of hours ago to check one out. The white one is definitely the best, and as people said, it looks much better in person than in photos. I didn’t see one with its back end lit up, but the front is really sleek. It might be the most extreme case of “photos don’t do it justice” I’ve ever encountered haha

Palisades

It will be cheaper to build.

I thought these were already being sold.

Same

Nor should it at its price.

Yeah I think both white and black look really good. I ordered the white.

Lovely!

I think Tesla just wants to differentiate their cars so people can tell the difference between the models more easily. Also more options in design will probably also bring in more buyers. But ngl I like the highland model 3’s design more than this, but if they copied the 3’s design on the Y, the 3 still would have looked nicer.

The range is better than before due to better aerodynamics. But I think the battery pack size is the same as the old Y.

Now this light bar front looks like cybertruck, which is not a good thing. M3 and MY should look like each other in my opinion. Like MS to MX.

People should be receiving it during this month (march), but there were initial preorders before.

I do agree, but I feel like the Y trying to look like the 3 will always make it look “worse” than the 3. Giving it a new deign is nice, but for a family car, I feel like this new look is very aggressive and techy…

If this were true they wouldn’t have gone with the Kona/Equinox look.

Nice KIA

Yeah I think it looks generic and souless, too many EVs have the dumb lightbar day lights already idk what they were thinking.

to be clear, you can do whatever you want, but the manufacturer recommends removing them to avoid scratching the covers. [source for model 3, but same for all models](https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/2017_2023_model3/en_us/GUID-94F63B13-EA2C-45D9-83AB-5DCA6295D587.html)

chinese market loves light bars, and china is buying tesla's like hotcakes. i am disappointed that they didn't fix the CT lightbar snow accumulation issue. a lot of people were theorizing that they did. well my car is a 2022 so i can wait. i personally only care to upgrade once they launch an LFP MY with Powershare. hopefully by then we see some lightbar improvements as well. see you all in neverland.

Nah I think that’s a Kona

Looks aren’t everything. The build quality is much better. My model Y compared to my model 3 highland is a night and day difference.

The covers are dirt cheap to replace. I’m more afraid of scratching the rims under the covers 🤣

Chainsaw

Exactly. If you want luxury but you’re looking at a model Y, you’re looking in the wrong place.

new design is better than the 3/y. The old 3/y just look like that... OLD. its not edgy, all the roundness and curves is 90s and 00s look. Makes it look dated. good move for tesla with the highland and juniper designs. It brings the design more with the times.

I prefer it that way. brands are lazy when they make the front end all the same design language. kia/hyundai--for example, designs all over the place but not a bad thing. if the design one year sucks, if its copy and paste like toyota does, then the entire line that year sucks. at least if the front design is hated only by some, it wont translate on another model since it would be different.

you say that like an insult as KIA/hyundai has zipped up to one of the top selling brands in the USA. Not to mention their EVs are actually a lot better feature wise

LOL, you summed up old model Y owners feelings. Thats how it was with the highland. All the old 3 owners were hating HARD. they knew their time was up and would now be considered old news

That's funny because a few years ago I saw a Model S plaid with the Yoke for the first time in Tahoe as well.

Sure bud

I think I'll just stick with a Honda.

I love the red, of course. I loved the red in the old model y too, but with the new reflective red light in the back, it just looks even better!!! White seats must have!!!!

It's a $70k car!!!! What do you need to spend for it to be luxurious in your mind? you must be loaded!!!! My $30k dollar sentra is luxurious, and it looks it too!!! In the mind of any financially responsible person, anything more than a car that has wheels and a motor is luxurious.

Everyone gets a choice. honda is great. i love my sentra, but the second I can, I'm upgrading to those ventilated seats, and that awesome 0-60. i love launching even just my sentra with the 10 second 0-60 lol. If it's not worth it for you, it's not worth it, but here in texas, ventilated seats are a must-have, and I haven't found a vehicle i like that has them too except tesla.

I mean snow...

I’m sarcastically agreeing /u/technical_act3541. Ask them, they’re the one with all the upvotes for that idiotic statement

Ah, sometimes sarcasm doesn't come through too well on account of stupid people saying stupid shit on the internet all the time and being completely serious.

Weak AF

Your $30,000 Sentra is not luxurious and it doesn’t look it either. Stop lying to yourself lol It’s a Nissan Sentra. Nothing about a Nissan is luxurious.

Those actually look pretty good.

It's wild seeing Superchargers completely unoccupied at busy times here in North Tahoe. Like all the Tesla cars have vanished overnight.
