Tesla

Tesla rolled out the redesigned version of its popular Model Y electric SUV in North America and Europe. The updated model has a sleeker design, upgraded interior, and a longer range. While that's great news on its own, the interesting bit is that the original Model Y isn't going anywhere just yet. For now, both versions are available on Tesla's website.

The refreshed Model Y is offered exclusively in a long-range all-wheel drive "Launch Series" variant. This limited-edition release starts at $59,990 (before any savings and incentives) in the US and features unique badging on the liftgate, puddle lights, door sill plates, and some other subtle touches. The overall silhouette remains familiar, but the new Model Y sports a more refined, more contemporary aesthetic.

In Europe, the Launch Series Model Y starts from $71,450, making it quite a bit more expensive than in the US. As usual with the European market, the actual price varies a lot between different countries. In Canada, the same version is priced at an equivalent of $61,175.

The interior of the new Model Y comes with ambient lighting that wraps around the cabin. Ventilated seats add comfort for both driver and passengers. As usual, the 15.4-inch touchscreen provides access to navigation, entertainment, and vehicle controls. The second-row seats have power recline option and can fold flat for increased cargo space. Additionally, an 8-inch rear screen display with Bluetooth and a touch panel provides entertainment options for those in the back.

The new long-range all-wheel drive Model Y offers an estimated range of 325 miles, a decent improvement over the original's 311 miles. It can reach a top speed of 125 mph and accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 4.1 seconds. In comparison, the older Model Y long-range AWD takes 4.8 seconds to achieve the same sprint.

Deliveries of the refreshed Model Y will start in March. The original Model Y remains available with a starting price of $44,990, and there are plenty of units available from stock, with substantial discounts. If you don't mind driving last year's Tesla, this probably is the best time to get your hands on one. Word of warning - Canadian buyers should be aware of an impending $4,000 price increase for the older model.

If you intended to purchase sFSD, AWD, LR; the choice of color, interior, and wheels becomes a promo "freebie".
