Inovev forecasts between 250,000 and 300,000 new Tesla Model Y per year
- Electric car manufacturer Tesla has unveiled its fourth model, the Model Y, which will be on the market from the end of 2020. It is a D-segment SUV based on the Model 3 sedan platform (200,000 units have already left the Fremont, California plant).
- In the Tesla range, the Model Y will be between the Model 3 and the Model S in terms of price. The manufacturer has indicated that it will cost about 10% more than a Model 3, i.e. between €56,000 and €69,000 in Europe. The commercialization of this model should begin in the USA and China in 2020, and in Europe in 2021.
- The manufacturer announces a range of 368km for the cheapest version and 540km for the most expensive version (estimated WLTP cycle). Model Y should take some Model 3 customers, given the continued success of SUVs around the world. It could also take customers from the Model X in its 7-seat configuration, as it will be much cheaper.
- The Model Y will compete with the Jaguar I-Pace and the future compact SUVs of the Volkswagen group, which will be launched in the years 2020-2022. Tesla made sure to introduce its Model Y model before the Volkswagen group's SUVs, when they should be on the market around the same time. Inovev expects production of 200,000 units per year of the new Model Y in the USA, to which must be added between 50,000 and 100,000 units produced in China.
