7 Photos New spy images of the facelifted 2025 Tesla Model Y electric SUV have emerged out of Europe ahead of its formal unveiling expected in the coming weeks. The images reveal the design changes coming to the Model Y in clearer detail than before, confirming it will receive a new split headlight design to further differentiate the Tesla SUV from the Model 3 sedan it is based on. Tesla is expected to unveil its newest Model Y – codenamed ‘Juniper’, following the Model 3 ‘Highland’ facelift revealed in 2023 – within weeks, with Chinese media reporting mass production has commenced at the brand’s factory in Shanghai. 7 Photos While the rear has been camouflaged, the spied vehicle appears to align with a leaked image which surfaced online in August 2024 of a full-width light bar similar to the the Cybertruck and Cybercab. The rear-view camera has been relocated to above the light bar, while the tailgate is expected to be redesigned with the number plate moved to the rear bumper. Inside, the Model Y will resemble the facelifted Model 3, inheriting its larger 15.4-inch infotainment touchscreen, ventilated front seats, revised dashboard, ambient lighting strips, and other tweaks. The steering wheel stalks will also be removed in line with the newest Model 3, Model S, Model X and Cybertruck, which instead feature buttons on the steering wheel for the indicators, and a gear selector built into the side of the touchscreen.
