It certainly asks an excellent question: Y?
The answer probably is "Because we're getting subsidized by the government to do it." |

I'm sure there will be people who through down their money so that they can get an early reservation. The question will be how many people and the second question will be how many people put buying a mid grade - upper trim model 3 on hold and simply put a deposit down on a Y or just wait for the Y to come out? I'm very interested to see if and when Elon promises the Y will start being delivered to customers and not just manufacturing to begin. Removing the China gigafactory from the equation since that seems to be paid in full by Chinese lenders, Tesla needs to build manufacturing for Semi, Roadster, and now the Y. I don't anticipate the next 2 years being any easier than the last 2-3. |

With Tesla lowering the price of AP and FSD until 3/18 I see tons of people buying the upgrade on Facebook and the Forums. I wonder what impact will this have on Q1 ; I myself bought AP and I am thinking really hard about buying FSD. This guy gets it: My prediction for the Model Y is that they will hit volume production surprisingly fast and that reservations will be less than half than they got for the Model 3. |

I mean, it doesn't mean they don't want/need deposits, it just wasn't rushed out after the $35k version was announced/some other reason that makes them need money right now. Unless they knew a year ago they would need more deposit money right now. |

Last Feb it was announced unveiling would take place around late spring early summer then was pushed back to March this year. Model Y was trademarked back in 2013 to be based on the Model 3.
