I just see the Model Y and Model X, and to a lesser extent the Model 3 as being awkward looking and frumpy. Only Tesla I can say I really like the looks of is the Model S.

 

Model S is definitely the best looking car out of the lot, especially with nice rims, but I've grown to really like the looks of both the Model 3 and Y. The awkward looks you mention are what seperate Tesla's from the rest of the crowd. Except now, there are so many on the road that perception is changing. Hence, the refresh is needed

 

Awkwardness just doesn’t appeal to me lol, I’d rather have a car I think is beautiful that doesn’t stand out at all.

 

No, I get that. I'm into utility more than looks, as you notice in my choices of cars over the last two decades (a Corolla, three Camry's and two Sienna's). I broke character a bit when I bought my IS350, then the Polestar

 

i think the front end of that gls you posted is a bit awkward.

 

I don’t agree at all

 

sighting:

 

Release the Kraken! What's taking so long.

 

A ton of back orders and inventory that Tesla doesn't want cancelled. Also keep in mind that Elon mentioned that production may be down for the coming quarter due to "upgrades" in their factories

 

i can't tell the difference at all on the latest screenshot.
I think the new Model Y release timing (if really Fall 2024) is perfect for me. Pretty stoked if it's an improvement over current model and pricing point stay in the same ballpark. Of course, the gov't subsidy and cali would be the deal maker. My parents are expecting to retire "poor" for at least a year.

 

wow! possibly 20% price reduction. this will replace my P*2

 

I am hearing from my sources that the release is imminent starting in September timeframe ramping up to end of the year.....they will sell both for a while while they transition their lines to the refresh...

 

My guess is, the ramp will be Q1. I an 99.9% I will get one. Gotta figure out what to do with all these cars. One's gotta go.

 

i dont think there will be huge difference in body, with exception of front end back, just like all other refreshes. Model S did not change a lot either in looks, despite under the "hood" changes being big.

 

New highland wheels....
