Launched in China on January 10, 2025, the Tesla Model officially has just been released in France this Friday, January 24 at dawn. You can already reserve the model on the official Tesla website and at dealerships. Here is everything you need to know about the model when it comes out.
After the tesla Model 3 facelift in 2023, it is the turn of Model Y. The car, commonly known as “juniper”, officially released this Friday morning in France and replaced the model released 5 years ago.
Initially unveiled in China and discreetly marketed on January 10, 2025, few people expected to see the model arriving so early in Europe. But it’s done. We tell you everything about the launch of this new model there in France.
Tesla releases her new model y in limited edition “Launch series”
For his arrival in France, the manufacturer did not quite use the same strategy as usual. Indeed, the new Model Y (2025) is first available in a limited edition called: Model Y Launch Series Grande Autonomy Full Transmission. This same series is also available in China alongside another propulsion model – but in France, only the latter is presented on the Tesla site. The others should soon arrive.
-This Launch Series arrives with 568 km and killed 0 to 100 km/h in 4.3 seconds, with a top speed at 201 km/hin short, a subtle balance between performance and autonomy – usual on this kind of intermediate version. In addition, this model has details there that distinguishes it from the models that will be put on the market later: in particular, a logo affixed to the rear, like Plaid models
At the opening of the doors, there is a plastic threshold badged Launch Edition accompanied by a light projecting the visual of the trunk logo on the ground. We also find Several registrations Launch Editionespecially on the basis of the double induction charger for smartphones. Finally, the top of the dashboard is adorned with a decoration in black suede texture.
How much does the model y 2025 cost?
This new model does not arrive there with the best news, because there is a high price increase. The limited edition vehicle is offered at € 60,990 including taxi.e. an additional € 13,000 compared to a large generation model Y Grande autonomy all -wheel drive. Orders costs through the Tesla site are € 250 – this remains unchanged and deliveries This model will start in March on French territory. Other models should further complement it with potentially with the return of conventional variations:
- Propulsion
- Great autonomy, propulsion
- Great autonomy, all -wheel drive (replacing the Launch Series)
- Performance, all -wheel drive
Difficult to know if the other versions will be eligible for the ecological bonus and the aid of the State: anyway, this new model remains at the weight for the moment (1997 kg) but we will have to wait to see if a version Under the € 47,000 is possible.
What is there again on this Tesla Model Y?
But what does this new model offer? Well, first of all, it will not have escaped you, the design radically changes from the old generation. We find a model there below, especially with a new light signature in the form of a band, both at the front and at the rear. The front also recalls the tunes of the Cybertruck. The tailgate, the front and rear bumper as well as the wings were restyled to give a slightly more sporty appearance to the SUV.
On its front bumper, there is a new camera that pays the luxury of a windshield washer and heating to avoid losing visibility in the event of a mist or dirty bumper.
But the big novelty in the passenger compartment is that the model signs the comeback of the Commodos for the indicators, a highly anticipated element which had been seen on the Chinese version and which is now official on this French model. This will be more comfortable when changing management.
The interior has also been reworked with new materials to bring more comfort if the manufacturer is to be believed. The USB recharging system rises to 65W, enough to recharge laptops quickly, and there is also better Wi-Fi connection which should improve the download time, among others. The sound system of this Launch Series version has 16 speakers. There are always two screens: a large one at the front of 15 inches as well as an 8 inch rear screen.
In short, Tesla sauce.
