Hey everyone, Dennis here from DennisCW! Welcome back to the blog. If you're a Tesla fan like me, you're going to love this update. A Model Y L—the six-seater, third-row version—has been officially spotted on US roads. This could be the confirmation we've been waiting for that it's headed stateside later this year. Shoutout to Michael for the epic catch on I-280 northbound in the Bay Area. Let's dive into the details, plus some other hot Tesla news, deals, and a giveaway recap.
This isn't just a one-off sighting. We've seen similar camouflaged test vehicles in the Bay Area before:
Tesla loves testing in California before a big reveal. My prediction? Deliveries could start in Q3 or Q4 2024, maybe even aligning with the Model Y Performance launch timeline from late last year. Expect the usual rollout: more spottings, interior leaks, and then boom—orders open.
Camouflaged Model Y L on I-280—longer body, third-row vibes.
Compared to the Chinese version (shoutout to Kyle from Out of Spec Reviews), it's bigger but that third row looks snug—perfect for kids or extra cargo on road trips. For families or dog owners like me, it's a game-changer over the standard Model Y. Would you trade your current Tesla for one?
Tesla's recent earnings call emphasized Full Self-Driving (FSD) over vehicle features, but demand for bigger SUVs is real. Can't wait to see it in person!
Hagerty's Jason Kawata got exclusive access to the sold-out Signature Edition. It's 375 lbs lighter, 40% more efficient than the 2012 original, with only 3% shared parts. Design evolution is insane—check the side-by-side. Jealous? Nah, but it's a halo car done right.
Elon says a demo could happen in a month: "One of the most exciting products on wheels ever." Expect hopping, thrusters? It's not a volume seller, but the spectacle will be epic.
VIN 0 at Giga Texas! Big change: glossy paint instead of matte. No mirrors, no steering wheel—pure robotaxi. How much would you pay for one?
Current incentives: 0% on Model Y, 0.99% on Model 3. Expect changes end of month.
We hit 67 likes and gave away a Cybertruck windup racer to UIT Doger 6783—DM me on IG or use the linktree! Thanks to Wide Awake, Crusty Max, Mr. Protek, and everyone for the engagement. FSD 93% rollout chat was lit—updates seem area/bandwidth-based, not safety score.
The EV world is heating up: Rivian R2 deliveries, Lucid updates, Rivian $500 flash discount (April 23-27). What's got you most excited—Model Y L, Cybercab, or Roadster?
