Although sales of electric vehicles continue to increase, the reality is that the pace of growth has slowed down, which is why manufacturers often choose to accelerate the renewal of their vehicles, with the aim of attracting more customers, taking advantage of the novelty factor. And Tesla is not indifferent to this argument, since it updated the Model 3 in September 2023, in a remodeling which he called Highland. Now, this raised the question of when it will be the Model Y’s turn to enjoy the same improvements, since it shares practically everything with the Model 3.
The doubt is so widespread that, this time, the question was raised by a Tesla shareholder who, mentioning “some rumors,” questioned whether “the renewed Model Y will be launched in July.” The comment was made on the social network That is, those interested will be able to count on it, but only in 2025.
On the Model Y, the “update” will come out this year.
I should point out that Tesla continually improves its cars, so even a car that is six months old from new will be a little better.

Although the Model Y is the best-selling electric vehicle in the Western world, the reality is that it would gain a lot if it had better acoustic insulation, benefiting from greater efficiency (and autonomy), as well as a more solid interior construction and some aesthetic touches. that would make it more modern. Furthermore, the project to renew the North American brand’s smallest SUV is not an invention of the public or the press, as its internal name (Juniper) is even known.
Do you know which electric car surpassed the Volvo EX30 in Europe?
Therefore, it is not surprising that many potential customers are wondering when the Model Y “Juniper” will hit the market, since not only is it clear that this will happen, but nine months have already passed since Tesla revealed the Model 3. This doubt permanent does not help the greater commercial success of the Model Y, alienating some customers or, at least, delaying some purchasing decisions. It remains to be seen what impact Musk’s clarification will have on sales.
