Tesla has begun producing the refreshed Model Y at its European plant in Germany, marking the start of the production ramp-up for the world’s current bestselling vehicle across four Gigafactories.
Earlier this week, the company launched the refreshed version in the United States, Europe, and Canada — two weeks after unveiling it for the Chinese markets. Across all the regions, deliveries are planned to start in March.
The first unit to roll off the line was painted in Tesla’s new ‘Solid Black’ color, signed by all the Giga Berlin employees, and is currently on display at the factory.
The first units to be delivered across all markets will be the “Launch Series,” priced at $59,990 in the U.S., £60,990 ($76,140) in the UK and at €60,990 ($60,050) in Germany.
This special edition is an all-wheel-drive model that includes approximately $17,000 worth of added features.
It comes standard with Tesla’s supervised Full Self-Driving software, valued at $8,000, the Acceleration Boost feature ($2,000), a tow hitch ($1,000), and customization options, including any paint color, wheels, or interior trim, at no additional cost — among other features.
