Tesla finally enriches the customization offer of the Model Y Propulsion with a new blue shade.
Tesla is quietly introducing a new feature to its French configurator. The American manufacturer now offers a new shade “Coastal Blue” on the Model Y Propulsion, the entry-level version of its electric SUV. A minor evolution on the surface, but it finally allows for an expansion of a previously very limited color selection.
Until now, the Model Y Propulsion was only available in white at no extra cost. Customers wanting to customize their vehicle had to turn to black or dark gray, which were offered as options for an additional 1,300 euros. This new blue color therefore enriches a palette that was markedly lacking in diversity.
Everything is paid for at Tesla
Also priced at 1,300 euros, this paint provides a welcome alternative for buyers looking to stand out from the sea of white, gray, or black Teslas that now populate European roads. In a car market where neutral shades represent the overwhelming majority of sales, the arrival of a new color is worth noting.
On the Tesla configurator, the rendering of this shade, however, gives a mixed impression. This dark blue, which some might readily label as “police blue,” doesn’t seem particularly highlighted by the digital images presented by the brand. Depending on the lighting and angles of view, the color sometimes appears flat, almost dull…
But, as is often the case with new paints, virtual renderings only tell part of the story. Some colors reveal all their depth when exposed to natural light, while others lose their luster outside of a studio.
