Tesla is teasing a brand new product launch on Friday, August twenty ninth, coming to Europe and the Center East. It’s doubtless going to be the Mannequin Y Efficiency.
On X at this time, Tesla has teased an upcoming product launch coming this friday.
The submit is cryptic. It solely mentions ‘spoiler alert’ and the date August 29 with what seems like an in depth up of a automobile with what seems to be a spoil – therefore the “spoiler alert” reference:
There are fundamental suspect is the Mannequin Y Efficiency as a result of spoiler reference.
For the reason that Mannequin Y refresh in January, Tesla stopped promoting the Mannequin Y Efficiency. It is because of launch the highest efficiency model below the brand new design.
When Tesla launched the Mannequin 3 refresh in 2024, it took about 4 months for Tesla to launch the brand new efficiency model.
Electrek’s Take
The one factor that I discover unusual with this doubtless being the Mannequin Y Efficiency is the truth that they tweeted this from the Europe and Center East account.
It might be unusual for the Mannequin Y Efficiency to launch there first, however who is aware of. Perhaps Tesla began manufacturing at Gigafactory Berlin first.
I don’t assume this can have a serious affect on Tesla’s enterprise. The Mannequin Y Efficiency is the least well-liked model of the best-selling Mannequin Y.
We don’t have the complete mixture of gross sales, however I wouldn’t be suprised if it represents lower than 10% of Tesla’s Mannequin Y deliveries.
The Mannequin 3 Efficiency might be a extra well-liked choice throughout the Mannequin 3 lineup as it’s much more enjoyable to drive.
