NEW TESLA MODEL Y COMING IN 2023

EV Channels Review

This video provides a comprehensive update on Tesla's Q4 2022 delivery results, highlighting record-breaking numbers that surpassed analyst expectations despite some vehicles being in transit. A significant focus is placed on the confirmed reintroduction of the standard range Model Y in the US, featuring 4680 cells and a structural battery pack. While this new configuration offers an AWD option and a respectable 279-mile range for $61,990, the reviewer notes it still falls short of the original performance long-range Model Y pricing and, crucially, will not qualify for the EV tax credit due to the 5-seater MSRP cap. The discussion also touches upon the upcoming Investor Day on March 1st, where Tesla plans to unveil details about its Generation 3 platform, expected to yield a cheaper, smaller vehicle (potentially the 'Model 2'). Other news includes the refresh Model S and X launch in China and initial details on the Tesla Semi's modular battery pack. The review concludes that while Tesla's growth is impressive, the new Model Y's pricing and tax credit ineligibility are considerable drawbacks for consumers.
