NEW TESLA MODEL Y HIGHLAND IS COMING | HERE’S WHAT WE WANT

EV Channels Review

The video discusses the anticipated "Project Juniper" refresh for the Tesla Model Y, expected in 2024, following the Model 3's "Project Highland." Key expected updates include revised exterior lighting, a stalkless steering wheel with on-screen controls (similar to Model S/X), and potentially steer-by-wire technology. The reviewer expresses a strong desire for additional features, such as an instrument cluster or heads-up display, more cameras for enhanced FSD and a 360-degree view, ventilated seats, and the return of moving passenger lumbar support. Other wished-for additions include a rear screen, a powered front trunk, adaptive air suspension, and enhanced in-car gaming capabilities. The discussion also touches upon potential improvements in battery technology (4680 cells), faster charging speeds with V4 Superchargers, the possibility of an LFP battery pack in more markets, and a return to more accessible pricing. While acknowledging Tesla's focus on manufacturing cost savings, the reviewer hopes these updates will make the Model Y more luxurious and practical, potentially bringing its price closer to its original target of under $40,000.
