The Tesla Model Y will receive its first major 'Juniper' update in 2025, following the successful 'Highland' facelift of the Model 3 in 2023. As the world's best-selling car in 2023, this update aims to enhance the popular electric SUV's appeal.

Recent spy shots in Spain reveal a camouflaged Model Y testing on public roads. While the basic body shape remains unchanged, the vehicle appears to feature redesigned headlights and taillights, likely adopting slimmer units similar to the latest Model 3.

Expected updates include:

• Sleeker exterior styling
• Improved material quality
• More minimalist interior
• Potential performance improvements
• Possible range enhancements

The interior is expected to mirror the new Model 3's design, featuring:

• Large central touchscreen
• Button-free dashboard
• Steering wheel-mounted controls
• Enhanced material quality

Battery options will likely remain similar to the current model:

• Standard range: 57.5kWh battery
• Long range: 75kWh battery (up to 373 miles)
• Potential aerodynamic improvements for extended range

The new Model Y is expected to launch in 2025 with a starting price around £42,000, potentially lower than the current model, following Tesla's recent pricing strategy with the Model 3 update.

Additional improvements may address customer feedback regarding suspension comfort and could include new features like vehicle-to-load capability, first introduced in the Cybertruck.
