2025 TESLA MODEL Y SPIED, TOYOTA LANDCRUISER V8 IS GONE & VFACTS | THE CAREXPERT PODCAST

EV Channels Review

The CarExpert Podcast discusses the upcoming "Juniper" update for the 2025 Tesla Model Y, which is expected to mirror the changes seen in the Model 3 "Highland" update, including revised headlights, taillights, and interior. However, the reviewer expresses reservations about the new steering wheel controls for indicators and wipers, particularly for non-car enthusiasts. The podcast also touches on Tesla's significant price fluctuations, leading to poor depreciation and a collapsing secondhand market, advising potential buyers to hold off for the updated model or current stock clearance. The discussion also highlights that Australia missed out on a recent Model Y update that improved range and speed, suggesting current stock is being cleared before the new model arrives, likely in 6-12 months. The Model Y's strong sales figures in June are attributed to a resurgence in arrivals rather than organic demand, following a period of order cancellations after previous price cuts.
