ELON MUSK REVEALED ALL-NEW TESLA MODEL Y MINI, 2024

EV Channels Review

This video speculates on Tesla's potential launch of a 'mini Model Y,' a smaller, more affordable version of their best-selling EV, built on a new, cheaper-to-produce platform. The content suggests this new model, possibly around the size of a Mazda CX-30, could debut in 2023 with a target price of $25,000 USD, utilizing 4680 battery cells for an estimated range of 250+ miles and 0-60 mph times under 5 seconds. The review also touches upon the upcoming 'Project Juniper' revamp of the current Model Y, expected in 2024, which will bring exterior and interior updates, potentially mirroring the significant infotainment and interior enhancements seen in the Model S and X refreshes. A notable segment discusses the recent eligibility of all Model Y trims for the US EV tax credit, following a reclassification of the vehicle as an SUV by the IRS, reducing the purchase price by $7,500. While the video presents intriguing possibilities, it acknowledges a lack of concrete official information, with details often changing and spy images being the primary evidence for the mini Model Y.
