A glitch on Tesla's site briefly revealed Model Y L non-launch pricing for key options, including $2,000 for premium paints like red and cosmic silver plus $2,000 for the 20 inch wheels.
Model Y L paint wheel interior leak details
The leak showed exact Model Y L options prices that normally stay hidden. Red and cosmic silver paint each carried a $2,000 premium. The Model Y L Zen gray interior added another $1,000. Combined with the Model Y L 20 inch wheels price at $2,000, buyers could easily spend $5,000 on just those three choices.
This Model Y L launch edition leak suggests the non-launch version is close. I expect it to arrive early in Q4, possibly October 1, once launch series deliveries wrap up.
What the leak means for Tesla buyers
If you're still waiting on a Model Y L launch edition, the non-launch model will likely skip the included 12 months of FSD and free supercharging. Tesla may price the base non-launch version higher to discourage switches, keeping launch orders intact.

Bottom line on Model Y L non-launch pricing
The glitch confirms Tesla is ready to expand the lineup quickly. Launch edition buyers got the better deal with included extras. Non-launch pricing will probably favor staying with your current order rather than switching.
