Tesla updates the Model Y configurator in Europe

Tesla is continually adjusting its website at this time. A few weeks ago we saw the Tesla Model 3 MIC (Made In China) appear in the UK with the new door trim design, but now it looks like it’s the Model Y’s turn to be updated.

Indeed, even if it is still impossible to order in the UK, the configurator in the other European countries has just changed

Tesla has changed the estimated delivery date of its Model Y Long Range, but surprisingly, the Californian company has removed the estimated delivery date of the Model Y Performance

Model Y Long Range, estimated delivery mid-2021

Model Y Performance, no estimated date

It seems that Tesla is making progress on his RoadMap, until he can start announcing dates. On the other hand, the choice to prioritise the high autonomy and very strategic model is certainly linked to the statistics they have been able to retrieve thanks to bookings

Manufacturing first the Model Y LongRange (high autonomy) will surely allow them to fill the most demand and then develop the Model Y Performance and perhaps a Standard-Range propulsion or dual motor

This strategy is the same as the one used in China when the Shanghai factory was opened, where the objective was to manufacture the most requested model locally in order to meet local demand as much as possible while limiting imports as much as possible

The question turns to the future owners who have reserved the Model Y Performance, keeping the reservation blind or changing the version is the right question

In any case, for those who will want to equip their Model Y with a performance spoiler, rest assured, it is already ready with us
