Tesla officially presented the “juniper” update of the model and, less than a day after the unbrusted images of the vehicle revealed online.
The style update, Code Call Juniper, has been awaited and had to come with innovations in the 2023 Style 3 update.
In October, Chinese social networks said the soda about to enter the production of checks, and a few days later, we saw a photo of the renewed style out there outside the doors of the Shanghai factory. Last month, we hear that mass production would begin in Shanghai in January.
And although Tesla said in 2024 that there is no update of the model and “this year”, 2024 already ends and the update is here.
Today, Tesla has updated its online page in Chinese (and others in the Asia-Pacific region) with all data on Model and updated, with many of the same innovations as Model 3 Refault as a quieter compartment, greater efficiency , more performance, environmental lighting and rear screen.
Previously, the highest diversity spec had 688 km of CLTC diversity, so that’s about a 20-mile improvement.
The 20 -inch wheels in the long -range edition will make you 662 km, and the RWD batteries will be 593 km or 559 km respectively on the 19 ″ and 20 ″ wheels respectively.
We believe that this can lead to about 350 miles in style and high specification in EPA notes, however, we will have to do when the car is launched in the United States.
Acceleration has also been improved, with Tesla saying the large-battery AWD Model Y can achieve 0-100km/h (0-62mph) in 4.3 seconds, down from a previous 4.9. The RWD version does the same sprint in 5.9 seconds. Both of these numbers would be slightly shorter for 0-60 times, because of those extra 2mph at the end.
There is no performance version yet – just as with the post-refresh Model 3, which didn’t get a performance spec until later.
The exterior design is just as leaked photos suggested, with the same rear end we saw in leaks in July and the front end that we saw earlier today. Though now we get to see it in higher resolution and better lighting.
The front-end includes a “light bar” of Cybercab / Cybertruck that the most classic headlights of the soda of style 3, and was reduced to eliminate the protuberance of the “duck lip” in the front of the hood.
Also on the front end is a new front bumper camera (again, like the Cybertruck, but unlike the Model 3), which should help with parking and also offer an additional point-of-view for Tesla’s Autopilot software.
The inclusion of this camera, while it will improve Autopilot accuracy, does lead to questions over whether previously vehicles that don’t have a front bumper camera will be able to achieve the same level of accuracy as refreshed vehicles do.
And the internal design adjustments are also almost as expected, the guide wheel has undergone less radical adjustments than some expected.
Earlier today, leaked images suggesting that the Model Y would get a “Squercle” guide wheel like the CyberTruck, leading to the hypothesis that it can also get the CyberTruck’s lanyard guidance system. But it turned out that those images were just a Model 3 with a tradition guide wheel.
The true inmate of the style maintains a circular guide wheel, which suggests that it will not be directed through the cable (the guide specification through the cable is not indexed in the Chinese of Tesla for the car).
However, it has images that appear the stems of the missing orientation column, which is a debatable characteristic of model 3.
However, through hunting in the guide wheel more closely, the rotation sign buttons of style 3 are not present. It turns out that Tesla included a girro vestige sign that hides the guide wheel and got rid of the PRND driving mode bar.
For any reason, this tour rod is not visual in any photo of the Chinese site of Tesla, only in its right driving regions, as its Hong Kong site, where a small left part is visual in the RHD Hong Kong of the vehicle. The same is for the car in the Singapore edition of the site, although the stem is hidden in images for any territory on the left.
Even if a single upper part is eliminated, it is a debatable change, because the amendment of the reader’s ways through the screen is not the maximum popular functionality, however, the elimination of the sign sign was burdensome and it is intelligent to see it again . We ask ourselves if style 3 can obtain this improvement in all likelihood, or if it will be another in other regions.
Tesla says the new “acoustic glass” in the styling significantly reduces internal noise. The Model 3 also received this improvement, and tests show a significant improvement in internal noise levels.
The Model Y receives other interior improvements seen on the 3, like a screen for the rear seat. The Cybertruck also includes this screen.
This shot also shows the ambient lighting LED strip across the dash, which can be customized through the vehicle’s UI.
Another rear-end improvement is electric rear seats, operated through a button in the trunk. This button gives easier access to rear storage space, allowing owners to fold the rear seats up or down while loading or unloading cargo.
Tesla’s Chinese website calls these “anti-gravity” seats, but it’s unclear what exactly the improvements might be in this respect. The seats are ventilated.
The first deliveries are scheduled for March in China, subject regulatory approval, Tesla’s configurator states that “the express delivery date will vary depending on the configuration and location of the pickup and other reasons. “
Tesla gives a “launch series” of the vehicle, which he did with many of his cars, but has not done so in the United States with model 3 / y. It includes exclusive design elements and badges “launch series” in parts of the vehicle.
The base value of this launch series is 263,500 yuan, or $ 35,900. This represents a building of approximately 5% of the past base worth 249,900 yuan (US $ 34,000).
Other markets in the Asia-Pacific region will also get the car soon, such as Australia, which is expected to begin to receive cars in May. While Tesla’s Europe and North America do not mention the update.
As for the other regions, they will probably have to wait. The update of Model 3 was released first in Europe, and the United States had to wait months. This is probably given new US price lists. In cars built by Chinese (which are a bad idea). So, given its launch in China, we would not expect a release in North America until the middle of this year.
What are you about the review, now that we have noticed more about it? Let us know in the comments.
As I wrote in the Take segment of our article revealed images prior to the day, this soda is necessary, because style 3 not only had access to many innovations that the style was not downloaded over the last year and partial year approximately, but even more . Tesla is recently happening a difficult era with sales.
The company has just concluded a year in which its sales fell for the first time since 2011, when Tesla only sold the low production Roadster. This has happened despite the Global Mercado Mercado Mercado de EV at new heights, even if Tesla, the world the largest EV manufacturer (barely) has made its component to drag the market EV market through not depending on the rest.
Part of the explanation of why it is due to the expired styles: the style is the most productive style of Tesla, begins to seem a bit long in the tooth, specifically given the updates of style 3. Therefore, we ask ourselves before In the day if the style snack can rekindle the expansion of Tesla.
The front, ok. The back, meh. The interior, which is expected after M3. The offspring, an intelligent replacement for what it has been. Technical adjustments to the transmission and battery?I don’t see anything new, in fact, it has the same 250 kW spotlight for the LR as it had before. Honestamente. Su competition is basically on an 800 V architecture and accelerates to three hundred kW of complex load. Tesla was a leader in this category, but it’s been around for years.
But it’s not just about following models. After all, Tesla has just finished its first full year of Cybertruck production, which is a new model, but its polarizing nature has led to disappointing sales figures.
This polarization is not helped through the CEO of Tesla, Elon Musk, who makes his most productive to damage the business and say things phenomenally stupid or make ridiculous promises necessarily every day (or each and every few minutes). Its silly habit reflects customers, whether they think or not.
Maybe the company, the inventory, would be bigger if it had returned its name and Tesla has a genuine CEO, so it can go awry to video games on Twitter all day long (as it already does).
