Tesla Model Y Performance Demand Spike: Interest Rates Rise to 5.29% and Deliveries Delayed

Hey everyone, DennisCW here! If you're in the market for a Tesla Model Y Performance, buckle up—things are heating up. Tesla has quietly raised interest rates on financing for this beast, signaling a serious surge in demand. Let's break it down.

Interest Rates Climbing: A Sign of Strong Demand?

Tesla bumped the rate from 5.14% to 5.29%. While some lucky buyers are still snagging promotional rates like 1.99% or 2.99%, the reality for most approvals seems to be in the 4.84% to 5.14% range. This isn't happening in a vacuum—it's paired with delivery dates slipping into January, February, and even March.

What's going on? We're seeing an early wave of deliveries hitting the roads right now as December kicks off, but a backlog is building fast. If you're ordering a Model Y Performance today, brace for potential delays. Does this mean demand is already roaring back? All signs point to yes.

Real-World Sighting: Red Model Y Performance in California

Adding to the excitement, another Model Y Performance was spotted cruising in Burlingame, California—a stunning red exterior with white interior. If you're in Northern California, keep your eyes peeled! These pre-production or early units look incredibly clean and are a tease of what's coming.
