The new Model Y is eligible for $7,500 Federal Tax Credit, which cuts the cost to $52,490 with an upfront rebate, and you can also add $500 more with a referral link.

The new Model Y comes with a redesigned front and a more grounded appearance contributed by the light bars. The headlights are shifted a few inches below the lightbar near the air vents area. The wheels are optimized for a quieter experience, and the suspension is reworked to improve the driving experience.

This EV comes with new changes in the interior including ambient lighting, better seats with heating and ventilation for driver seat.

The rear seats are powered to support reclining and inclining. On the other hand, the passenger row now has an 8-inch screen to support separate entertainment, climate control, and it also supports two Bluetooth headsets simultaneously.
