Tesla has officially ended the ability to order the legacy Model Y in the U.S., transitioning solely to the new "Juniper" version and its Launch Series trim. This shift follows the successful launch of the new Model Y earlier this year, with deliveries already underway. While the legacy version can still be found in inventory, it will not be produced for custom orders. The legacy Model Y significantly contributed to Tesla's success, becoming the world's best-selling vehicle in 2023 and 2024, and improvements in the new model are set to attract continued demand.
Tesla has officially wrapped up the ability to order the legacy Model Y in the United States, now only showing the new "Juniper" version and its Launch Series trim in the Online Design Studio. Tesla launched the new Model Y in the United States in early February, and deliveries of the vehicle have officially started.
The sunsetting of the legacy Model Y is the closing of a chapter that truly launched Tesla into the stratosphere. Although the Model 3 found plenty of mainstream success for Tesla in its first few years, the Model Y was the vehicle that really made the company successful.
With the improvements to ride comfort, suspension, and cabin noise, along with the various changes to the exterior, Tesla has a chance to continue its run with the Model Y in 2025 - as long as it can ramp production in a timely manner and keep demand up.
The Model Y was the best-selling vehicle in the world in 2023 and 2024. Tesla unveiled the Model Y on March 15, 2019, so its first design was eliminated nearly five years before its initial appearance.
