So you are going to buy the new Model Y... Will you also keep your Xpeng?

[@R56Cooper]

Really wish Tesla would add vehicle 2 load for the model y so we could use the battery as a power generator🎉

[@EnmandsBand1]

My 2022 Niro EV has it both in the charging plug and inside the car, it is fabulous for camping

[@davidfujkk8018]

I dont know and understand why people are exited about new refreshed model y,it still got short lasting traditional tabbed 2018 interduced panasonic 2170 NCA cells,which only has 1000 cycle life(one of the lowest in the industry),it still uses same out dated and heavy electric motors,it still relies on out dated 400 volt architecture,it only gets very small range gain,i still dont understand why people are exited about it...

[@GabrielVoinea]

We don't need a 5 meters long monster that accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4 seconds, we just need a smaller affordable car with 400-500 km range that doesn't cost more than 30.000 euros/USD.

[@slavko321]

Turns out people like suvs. I think you will get your wish soon though.

[@andrewsaint6581]

Don't tariff the Chinese? Any car you like for 30 bob & a rabbit's foot.

[@jamesgallagher2434]

There are such cars coming 🙂

[@devonbikefilms]

You need a smaller car. It’s always a danger to assume everyone wants what you want. I agree there needs to be smaller cheaper cars and they are coming this year. They’re not just Chinese either. Hyundai Inster anyone?

[@MarcoNierop]

Tesla is working on these, will come out later this year. Tesla announced this in Q3 earnings call

[@32ukneil]

Nice looking car, looking forward to seeing the Viking driving it.

[@RichardTrainor]

i think it looks fantastic-love it

[@veikovasko5603]

It actually looks better than model 3 which is rather impressive for a SUV

[@Doug97803]

Personally I think it's a lot nicer looking than the nondescript previous version. But not sure sure the specs or price are a big enough improvement.

[@Benjamin_Monnoyeur]

I agree, the range is underwhelming

[@tonypaca3015]

there is no spec improvement still ancient tech. Range also was 711km in china so where is the 10% increase?

[@dylanthomas12321]

Wow, great first look here in Boston at 5:30 a.m. Cars are cool again like in the 1950s and 60s. Thanks, Sam.

[@LouDeVere]

Apparently no V2L or V2G by reports from others. This is a game changer for me and I cannot understand why Tesla would not include this feature. It seems crazy. I'm glad that the indicator has been left alone and is still on a stalk. I've been waiting for 15 months for the new Model Y since my 2023 MY was destroyed by a driver who'd fallen asleep at the wheel. Looks like after all this waiting, I'm still not going for it. Oh well. C'est la vie.

[@pauld3327]

Tesla said last year that all their cars would have the hardware for V2G by 2025. It will probably be a software update.

[@snookmeister55]

​@pauld3327 Most Tesla customers have no interest in V2G - that's what Powerwalls are for. 18V to inverter is possible with my Y, but that's all.

[@flash3047]

@@LouDeVere yes that is a very Important future proof factor for me.

[@vilester]

It’s DOA without it in Australia

[@rogerfroud300]

Unfortunately it's not future proof for charging, being on a 400V platform. It's still too expensive for most buyers, so we're either going to have to buy a used one or hope that the new lower cost models are 800V and are more compelling even if they are more basic. Nobody cares about the extra power, all it does is guarantee that it's still in the highest possible insurance group. That's 50E in the UK, which is crazy for a family car. What we need is options to detune the unnecessary acceleration and top speed to get into lower insurance groups. We're not all Boy Racers, some just want to drive responsibly. Thank goodness for the stalks, those are absolutely needed in Europe, the land of Roundabouts.

[@protagonist9716]

Indeed the platform comes from a Jurassic era and charging speeds are slower than last year G6

[@SzaszaG1]

But you can get 400V at home in Europe, and that's where most people charge their cars

[@zilla85]

The Model Y from Berlin Giga with BYD Blade proved that even 400V can be quite nice at charging but it seems they chose bad batteries for Juniper. What a mess.

[@ouethojlkjn]

Tesla often crimp the charge speed until they get a lot of data back. 400 V is irrelevant other than a theoretical maximum. Best of luck finding an 800 V charger anywhere.

[@shivaraj6]

Exactly, I will be disposing my current two teslas for zeekr 7x and 001. Tesla is failing on both charging and range.

[@copaloadofthis]

Still no V2L or V2G ? An absolute dealbreaker for me going forward.

[@martingardens]

Ditto.

[@Pauline-k2c]

Same

[@tysonfinn1470]

Yeh pretty lame

[@joeblack4026]

not just that, its again only 400V architecture probably

[@NopWorks]

Probably want people to buy the Powerwall. Same reason why iPad Pro won't run Mac OS. They want people to buy two instead of just one.

I owned a 22 model 3 and recently upgraded to the 24 refreshed version. Night and day across the board, especially ride quality. No doubt this will be the same.

@@davidfujkk8018then why if everything they use is outdated is their efficiency the best?

[@martinandersson5982]

No V2L, no V2G, no 48 v harness, no 800 volt, no bigger battery. No steer by wire. This vehicle is designed to be convenient and value for money. Those extras would have made it much more costly to produce and it is clear at this point that customers in high volumes don`t want to pay for premium. Just look at the CT, they pretty much already exhausted customers willing to pay >80 K for this premium beast. MY is designed to be the no 1 most sold, hence only premium features that are sensible from a cost perspective

[@z5m2]

Enlighten me in why v2l or v2g are popular? Seems like using either regularly would lead to excess battery degradation, so can't see ppl using either regularly or enmasse

[@sr76pablux]

[@davidissko9796]

it's NOT a new Model Y, just a refreshed version. Maybe next car

[@tysonfinn1470]

[@edwardtan8307]

Reserved for old Model Y last December but Tesla upgraded all Philippine orders To new Model Y same price. Delivery sometime 1st quarter.😊

[@NopWorks]

That's really nice. Congrats! 🎉🎉

[@Jeorgy92]

Damn thats annoying the old one looks much better

[@johnfranklin6394]

The Model 3 got an update in December which enables auto-shifting. This works quite well when I am parking or doing things like 3 point turns. I can manoeuvre without having to use the touch screen to shift from D to R and vice versa. It's not perfect, but it works better than you might imagine.

[@davidaj73]

Would like to see front shot with front quarter panel lights and driving lights on without bonnet light bar on.

[@AIMakeParodies]

It's also available in Malaysia as well. Delivery is expected in April

[@snowatom]

With the old Model Y LR, you could buy the Acceleration Boost, and get the same power, that is now included in the new Model Y LR.

[@bardz0sz]

Yeah but you wouldnt get the suspension update and front bumper camera

[@snowatom]

@ I know. It’s a great update. I was only pointing out the power difference and that it was possible to get the same power on the old model.

[@PaulVercoe-jz9rk]

This boost is think is only for the launch edition then you will pay for it later when launch edition run finish

[@davidissko9796]

Sam already mentioned it in the video.

[@tysonfinn1470]

Whats the go with the giga casting. How is it repaired in an accident if its just one giant piece

[@ep1kone]

Who patches a frame outside backyard modders? This will be easier to stretch back to normal but anything significant would be a write off anyway.

[@devonbikefilms]

Bolt in a new one if it’s that bad. Who straightens the chassis rails in a conventional car? (Spoiler, no one does….)

[@MarcoNierop]

Just cut the damaged piece out and bolt a new piece in.. Tesla already has standard repairs for that.. Lars Moravy (Tesla head of production) did a video about this some time ago.

[@trythis2821]

Very happy the indicator stalk remains. Weirdly I like having the gear selector on the screen with a manual option up near the rear vision mirror.

[@69memnon69]

Much is easier to do a three-point turn or parallel park with the stalk.

Good choice, I think is the one I would like. I know with the model 3 update I had a test drive and I did not have any issue with the placement of the indicators. Yes is different but just take a short time and your use to it. Back in the day when I drove all sort of cars in a week some had indicators on the left and other on the right and that was just as bad.

How are you able to afford all these new cars? You were asking people for donations not that long ago

[@EthanWilson-e5EthanWilson]

Nice video. Not a criticism, I enjoy your insights. I tend to think prices could go higher if XAI508P rockets. But understand the logic for sandbagging estimates. My opinion is XAI508P breaks 1, perhaps reaches 10 ATH, if conditions are right. But broader forces are at play now. We’re moving into really unknown territory. And these entities are shrewd. I think there’s massive manipulation ahead. If XAI508P survives that, well, we’re likely in for a good pump.

[@SydneyEV]

you can also use a referral code in Australia when ordering as well

[@Sam-i3s1n]

No referral discounts for ordering the new model.

[@metricstormtrooper]

Just quote "123 arse hole" to get the discount.

I love the looks but I’m in the 2023 Model 3 and love it as well. Maybe in the near future when my M3 is paid off I can switch out my ICE car for the MYJ.

[@MarcoNierop]

I am not so sure about the steer by wire. That Tesla kept the indicator stalk points to a conventional steering rack, because with steer by wire the indicator buttons are no problem, because the wheel is not turned more than one revolution full left to full right

[@JoshuaArthurHarris]

XAI508P going up like crazy! Pick up around 0.67 and now it’s hit $1! I wish i had bought more!

[@RailgunNZ]

Just got a M3 RWD highland. The improve seem good, mostly in line with what came out on the model 3. The front camera and indicator stick should really have been in the refreshed model 3.

[@johnrowbotham2810]

I like the look of the new y and I strongly suspect that when seen up close it will be a lot better too. Love my 22 LR Y with accelaeration boost and know that its main weakness is the suspension. Dilema, change to the Juniper or simply swap out the suspension... decisions , decisions?

It will be a great vehicle I’m sure. I wish we could get those Chinese, really long range/CATL million mile batteries here in the US.

[@petercroft9895]

Why on God's green earth do you wish for steer by wire? About a million lines of code, a mess of electronics, and a gaggle of "redundant" servo motors to replace a drop dead reliable,simple, bulletproof steering column and rack - an actual physical connection between you and the road wheels. Coming from a commercial electronics/firmware background, hell will freeze over before I trust my actual single-use mortal life to that fustercluck!
