Changes and equipment checks
Model Y: key transitions
The original European Model Y and Juniper differ markedly in cabin and chassis. Battery, number of seats and options are specified separately from the name of the generation.
- 2021–2024
Original European Model Y
Two steering levers, a large trunk opening and a heat pump. The previous-generation manual is called “2020-2024”: the range of the document is not equal to the dates of European sales. For five- and seven-seater versions, separate dimensions of the cabin and trunk are given.
- April 2022
Tesla Vision without radar
For the Model Y built for Europe, Tesla points to a shift to cameras instead of radar from April 2022. The date of first registration and the presence of separate parking sensors require verification.
- 2025+
Juniper: interior and suspension after the update
Tesla introduced suspension and noise insulation changes, front seat ventilation and an 8-inch rear screen. Equipment of the description of the launch can not be transferred to all later basic versions: in the current manual, the screen is indicated “if available”.
What to check when buying
- Compare the year of production, the supply market and equipment with the documents. The date of first registration alone does not determine the equipment.
- Compare range and acceleration with the same standard of measurement: the exact version of the drive, battery and wheels matters.
- Check the actual number of seats, third row access and folding seats. The seven-seat configuration is not common to the entire generation.
- Measure the trunk opening and the height of the open door in your garage. Compare the width of the car with open mirrors.
