Hey everyone, DennisCW here! If you're as excited about Tesla's latest moves as I am, you've probably heard the buzz about Model Y delivery delays. In my recent video, I dove into this topic, and I wanted to break it down for you in this blog post. Are these delays just a sign of surging demand, or could they hint at something bigger—like the imminent arrival of the Performance Model Y? Let's unpack it all, and I want to hear from you in the comments!
Recently, I've come across reports, including one from Fronttor Trunk, indicating that certain Model Y deliveries are being pushed back by 2 to 4 weeks. This has sparked a lot of speculation in the Tesla community. Could it be due to a massive influx of orders? Absolutely—that makes sense, especially with the $7,500 federal incentive on the chopping block and Tesla's CFO warning that incentives aren't getting any better (in fact, they might get worse).
I've been chatting with a few folks who've experienced these delays firsthand. For instance, some orders are now slated for August, particularly for buyers in states far from Tesla's factories, like Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Distance from production hubs like Fremont or Austin definitely plays a role in logistics, but it's got me wondering: is Tesla reallocating resources or production lines for something new?
Fingers crossed—I'm personally hoping this signals the launch of the refreshed Model Y Performance variant. We've been waiting for an update to match the prowess of the Model 3 Performance, and these delays could be a clue that Tesla is gearing up for it. But hey, that's just my take. What do you think? If you've got a Model Y on order, drop a comment below with:
Sharing your experiences will help us all get a clearer picture of what's going on across the board. Are deliveries speeding up near factories, or is everyone feeling the pinch?
Now, shifting gears a bit—once you finally get your hands on that Tesla (or if you're already cruising in one), you might be surprised to learn it comes with zero accessories. Not even a basic phone mount! But don't sweat it; I've got recommendations that every Tesla owner needs.
In my opinion, these are must-haves:
