Mobiwisy can confirm that all Tesla Model Y vehicles sold in France are produced at Giga Berlin.
The new Tesla Model Y is definitely a case apart. Let’s overlook the image of its turbulent owner Elon Musk which sticks to its bumpers like a splash of fresh tar. Everything has been said, and what remains to be said does not play in its favor.
This car is the quintessential example of a vehicle you might want to dislike, but which reveals a new charming facet every day. We thought it would be heavier than the first generation, but it is lighter. We thought it would be more expensive, but its prices are perfectly aligned with the previous model. We thought the autonomy and performance would be slightly increased for show, but the improvements are more than significant. In short, it is better than the old model, no denying it.
Let’s go back to its launch with a “Launch Series” that is exorbitantly priced. No need to break out your calculators; we’ve taken care of that for you and confirm that the badge costs a lot for what remains an All-Wheel Drive Long Range. A model aimed at a few customers who can afford to be among the first to own a new Tesla Model Y. We don’t like the approach, as you have understood, but should we blame it? Only those who paid 60,000 euros for a car now listed at 52,900 euros are qualified to answer.
An Autonomous Europe?
The latest news, Tesla has accelerated its delivery schedule with the Long Range All-Wheel Drive available from March, and we thought we finally had a solid critique to make about this car! Even though the Berlin Gigafactory has been operating at full capacity since last week, how can it possibly produce enough cars to meet European demand in just 15 days? All signs pointed to shipments of Model Y manufactured in China quietly arriving on the old continent… Still a miss!
This morning, Tesla France confirmed that all models sold in France are manufactured in Berlin. Tesla’s manufacturing strategy is therefore capable of meeting demand, which is truly an achievement. We often criticize Tesla, but we can also acknowledge when the manufacturer does things right, and this local approach appeals to us a lot. Now, we just need to test the vehicle to possibly find some flaws. Stay tuned in 15 days for that.
