Sweet wheels
That thing was sell so well in US
Will order when it comes to the US. Will wait till then.
Why do they get cool wheels. I mean, I left my covers on, but still! Would’ve been nice to have cool looking wheels underneath that I’ll never see like on the model 3. Edit: Upon further inspection these seem to be covers. Ok, now I’m really mad lol

Found the time traveler
Anyone know how to convert the range to miles as well as converted to EPA range in the USA?
This is going to sell extremely well.
Hopefully they drop this in u.s
GPT tells me between 326-350 miles. I’m leaning more towards 326 to be accurate
527 miles EPA My bad I got it wrong it’s 327 miles
And it has the armrest for 2nd row seats which Model X doesn't....
how is the range so high???
Very comment wise write you.
I want it bad
Are there any pics of the inside…
That wheel cover looks quite cool. I wish third parties make a similar design for the 20” Helix 2.0 lol
Different testing authority.
tons and there are videos as well. this car looks promising.
Yeah perfect for Robotaxi too
Cool ass rims
Devide by 1.6 for km to miles. Multiply by 0.65 for CLTC to EPA
Bring it to the United States you cowards!
It’s basically same as the AWD Y, so expect the US version to be right around 327miles
Less than 50$ a month USD. Wtf
The main reason my wife wants a model X? The 2nd row captains chairs. Now (in theory) she can have them in a Model Y... She may even let us buy another tesla one day.
You realise this isn’t Japanese Yen right?
Got it. Guess I was hoping they would fit a bigger battery in the longer wheelbase. Still, good to know it won’t be really any worse.
Where is the tesla roadster that was supposed to come out five years ago and that people pre-ordered for up to 250,000 dollars?
wish they dropped myp
Take my money in the USA!
no, the perfect robotaxi is a two seater for some reason
When?

Nobody talks about this, but it's true. A very significant percentage of Lyfts and Ubers are Teslas and that number is growing every year. I just keep thinking what's going to happen when Tesla allows individual owners to add their Teslas to the Robotaxi network. 20% of Uber drivers are resigning that day, sitting on the couch and sending their car out on the Tesla network. Uber will deal with a huge car shortage and a massive spike in wait times. The true threat of this will be seen if Uber announces drivers aren't allowed to drive Teslas.
It isn’t. China’s range tests are different than the US. Range is the same as the existing Model Y LR AWD.
Cheaper to refactor the Chinese factory
R.I.P the little bit of Model X sales that exist
Yes. That reason being 90% of the taxi/rideshare market is 2 people or less. Hey maybe Tesla does know what they’re doing :-)
2nd row seats are Ventilated and fold completely flat. Model X could have used that to help justify the $20k price increase it got from last year.... Tesla is letting the Model X die.
Battery is most likely 5% larger to accommodate the longer wheel base so range don’t drop.
The captain chairs in the X suck
I can’t imagine that uber wouldn’t want the additional ride availability and revenue that robotaxis would provide? I could be missing something though.
Because China is the world's largest and most competitive EV market, it has the most amount of talent/research/investment/supply chain associated. And the Shanghai giga factory is the most productive Tesla factory by a laaaaarge margin, it is more productive than all other tesla factory combined.
Probably Q4 when the tax credit dries up and they need to try and induce demand.
Is the turning radius worse than the regular Model Y?
He’s saying they wouldn’t do it through uber, they’d do it through Tesla
So maybe the extra 5% covers the increased size/weight of the car and we have a net 0 change in range. Do you have a link/source for the battery capacity change?
They are testing in the EU. Maybe maybe a big maybe
I thought competition won't help innovation. S/.
Because Evs in China are 10 years ahead of american ones. China in general is 20+ years ahead of america in many many ways. That's why the US government spends 1.6Billion USD a year on spreading lies about China to hope that you poor commoners won't look at a way better country, get angry, and overthrow your corporate billionaires running america.
I was about to buy Tesla Y today to get benefit of tax credit which is ending in September '25, but now debating on wait for this beast to come to the USA. Do anyone think that Tesla Y L may show up by EOY 2025 in US market? Its hard to buy an EV that's successor is coming soon 😲 but no visibility on release date 😡
I would so buy this
Very nice. And a smart move to further differentiate from the model 3 with the recent redesign. Before it just looked like a stretched out and slightly lifted model 3.
I got my shit rocked by a logging truck and should be getting my initial settlement from my insurance company in the next day or two. I was going to immediately order a new Model Y, but now I don't know if I should wait to see if this makes it to the US before the tax credit runs out. Is there a source for any info about the US launch?
Definitely not a maybe, it's coming to the US
Probably due to the increased wheelbase. Like if they modified the steering rack to turn tighter, they may as well do it for the regular MY too
Will this be available in Australia?
Probably, Australia gets cars from the China factory.
Needs another set of doors
Not really a fan of the name. I think something like Model Y+ could've been better. Two letters just feels awkward.
Unfortunately I’m 99.999% certain there is zero chance you’d get one delivered in time for the tax credit, even if they by some miracle announced the ability to order it this week in the U.S.
Yeah it was def a pipe dream. If they come around fast enough I may be able to do a trade in without having to eat too big of a loss 😬 It'll probably negate the credit though
You sound like a child.
Chinese EV's are not 10 years ahead of Tesla or the other American cars. Not at all.
I really don’t see this as a big seller in the US. More expensive than the normal Y & the tax credit will be gone before it goes on sale.
Nope. Google led me wrong.
All their cars come with accel boost for free?
Does it have the Same trunk size Like the normal Model y?
of course not in the car driving itself. Tesla wins with FSD. but everything else is miles ahead.
Everything else? Like what? The only thing they have over Tesla is charging speeds. Enlighten me
Damn, those rims are nice!
Source?
not my job to convince you bud. go watch some car reviewer youtube channels where they review Chinese Evs. Literally miles ahead of a rattling model s/x at half the price. Also sales numbers don't lie: [https://electrek.co/2025/03/05/this-chinese-ev-has-surpassed-teslas-model-3-and-model-y-is-next/](https://electrek.co/2025/03/05/this-chinese-ev-has-surpassed-teslas-model-3-and-model-y-is-next/) look what people are buying. Edit [https://youtube.com/shorts/uSfuOf8P\_aQ?si=V3Jgk9PBFG\_a7341](https://youtube.com/shorts/uSfuOf8P_aQ?si=V3Jgk9PBFG_a7341)
This "new" y looks so basic and dated compared to domestic brands. Will not sell well.
Can I get the wireless phone charger from this and upgrade my own juniper?
Yeah those are cool!!
I wonder if they made the actual car longer … that would b nice
I can’t imagine it working for any tall population countries. The third row in Model X was pretty tiny. In fact the only comfy third row EV is VW ID. Buzz, maybe the Kia PV9 eventually.
