Tesla variants are so boring..
People keep posting about these forged wheels. They don't look slim like most forged wheels. I think the wheels look nice, but they look like standard cast wheels.
Will probably have sportier front and rear bumpers like the 3.
That's what I've been waiting for to replace my 2022 MYP with. :)
I wonder if we’ll ever see the normal new Y with a third row or if it’s only going to be the L
They look good. i just hope they don't get scuffed when you get closer than 3 feet away from a curb.
I really like Highland performance wheels, not sure about these
I really hope they are lighter and maybe also slimmer than before. Uberturbines look great, but are so wide they get scratched easily and so heavy that they can't be considered very sporty
Stop curbing your wheels
Wheels are sexy

Give me the L!
I’m sure they are. Still heavy as hell too. That’s why I put lightweight 19s on mine. Something like 15 lbs less per corner.
FR, the curb just ejected from the side of the road when I drove by and hit me. /s
Depreciation just doesn’t matter to some. I never buy my cars thinking “but what will they be worth X years from now.” What other purchase do you make with that logic?
As long as it’s not as bumpy as the previous model, this will be a hit!
Might make sense for people that plan to get a new car every couple years.
Then the smart move would be to lease. Just not sure about OP’s comment about avoiding top spec EVs.
Cost per mile including fuel, insurance, maintenance, plus depreciation. No difference in asking what my car will be worth in 5 years and how much money I can save by switching from gas to electric.
Oooh aaah.
Same old same old
So we are supposed to believe that this car was spotted driving down what appears to be a rural road? But then we see the following: * Pictures were taken from three different angles with no visible motion blur. * The camera was on the side of the road. * The rims of the wheels appear not to have moved between the pictures. More likely that somebody from Tesla parked the car here, walked around and took three pictures, and then had them posted on Reddit.

Because depreciation isn’t a concern for me at all. I would get the MYP because it’s the most powerful Model Y and most fun for me to drive that I want to afford. I’m not looking to sell it in a year, 2 years, 4 years, 8 years. If I know I only need it for a few years I’ll lease.
Near Dish
This is the new one actually.
More like 3 years and 40-50% depreciation, but you do have a point.
I think the reason your decision is seen as foolish and reckless is because you’re either wealthier or younger than OP. When you’re older and on a budget planning the next few years, 30k is a lot of money. But many people’s situation is different.
This is a fact
Stop designing wheels that stick out over the edge of the damn tire wall.
The new M3P wheels are forged so the new YP should also have forged wheels
You get a sport trim with sport tires, they’re gonna be engineered to be sporty 🤷🏻♂️if you want the tire to stick out more get 18” or 19” wheels
Copied straight from a Polestar 2 Performance...
The depreciation will be fine once they remove the tax credit. The reason these depreciate so badly is because some states have huge incentives on top of the $7500 federal incentive. So those owners can sell for a LOT lower than the new price and still come out with comparable real out of pocket costs to other costs. Which sucks for anybody who doesn’t get all these credits.
That’s the cheaper Model Y, not the performance.
Yeah my 23 MYP getting replaced once this releases
This is the dream!! After a road trip in the model 3, with 2 kids and 7 bags stuffed inside, a bit more room and power would make it perfect for my life
Ooof 21” .. they range gonna be terrible
You are the first person I have seen who understands this.
I love my track rims, pricy but really complete the look. Also my S3XY buttons are so worth it. I can give links for them if anyone wants.
Well at least they aren't paying motortrend for coverage.
I work near here and I'm sure we will start seeing a lot of them around.
any chance these will be released before the september 30 deadline for the federal tax credit?
It’s pretty simple in determining motion. Just look at the markings on the roadway, which are different in all three shots. Hell, there’s even a manhole cover in one. Even cellphone camera shutter speed is good enough to takes these.
Lol, you got me there. Car was indeed moving, or was moved between shots.
Old Model Y with 20" Forged Wheels lol - [https://imgur.com/JHfmXGs](https://imgur.com/JHfmXGs)
Look how much thinner the spokes are than the camouflaged car. That's at least what I picture when someone says forged wheels.
Yeah almost looks like Tsportline
Not performance, it’s actually an economy model that doesn’t have the light bar (front and back) and no back seat screen to offset the no longer 7k incentives
that's literally one street from Tesla HQ in Palo Alto
still dont get why the massive wheels on the performance. i wish we could option it to have 18 or 19 inch wheels from the factory.
I wish I could just buy a Perf Y with the 19" Gemini wheels. I just want the acceleration, but don't want the reduced ride height, range, or more expensive tires to replace.
