The 2025 Tesla Model Y electric SUV has been spotted on the road for the first time, ahead of its expected global introduction next year. An image shared on Reddit by user u/JacklJack shows the Model Y testing in California with camouflage on its front and rear fascias. This sighting, reportedly codenamed Juniper, suggests the Model Y will receive updates akin to those applied to the Model 3 sedan. Although production was initially expected to start in October 2024, Tesla CEO Elon Musk confirmed the facelifted Model Y won’t launch this year. The vehicle’s exterior changes include a lower and flatter nose, slimmer headlights, and redesigned C-shaped LED tail-lights, bumpers, and wheels.
Brands mentioned: Tesla, Pirelli, Hankook.
