As of today 24/0/25, in UK the only refresh model Y is the Long Range AWD and only available in Black or Grey, black interior, 30” wheels, acceleration boost. No other colours, no white interior, no free EAP or FSD (unlike in USA). It seems very expensive compared to elsewhere, very disappointing but as usual the UK car buyers are being fleeced.
Yes, it isn’t cheap. Once supply is ramped, we can expect the cheaper rwd models to follow through. Hopefully, no later than by the end of the year! The US offering with FSD and everything else does seem really competitive IF you were going to buy all it anyway. You like the new Model Y? Planning to upgrade?
@ I’ve had my Model 3 Long Range for nearly 4 years and my wife has a BYD Atto 3 Design which we bought new 6 months ago. As I’m retired now we could go down to one car but it would need to have the range and size that the Model Y provides. If the deal in the UK was as good as it is in Australia and America, I would get the Foundation model Long Range AWD in Red with white interior, tow bar, probably the smaller wheels for the smoother ride and longer range and the FSD or Enhanced Autopilot which I have on my Model 3 which does everything that is currently allowed in the UK. In my earlier post I mistyped the wheel size as 30”, it should have been 20”.
@ sorry about the error on wheel size, I did mean 30”. As for the FSD, the on line order system for Tesla in the UK clearly states that the New Model Y comes with the standard autopilot and that FSD is an extra £6,800 taking the price above £68,000 and we only get the choice of 2 colours, black and silver. I am not bothered about the tow bar as I’ve never used the one on my Model 3, or the acceleration boost as it’s already quick enough for a family SUV but FSD would be of more value or even Enhanced Autopilot which I’ve had on my current car for 4 years. I won’t be ordering one unless I can get a red one with white interior like my current 2021 Model 3 Long Range.
what is that trim with the chrome? how come we cant get that in the US

Nope, FSD isn't free anywhere. It's built into the higher launch edition price in every market. I think you mean 20" wheels, 30" would be enormous 😊
