Tesla is no longer covering the vehicles in Giga Texas it is making and we can see some features of these vehicles that give clues to what kind of Model Y Tesla may be making.

We explore the question - Why don’t manufacturers include lifetime maintenance on electric vehicles? Maybe you can answer.

Last January Tesla began series production of the Model Y at Giga Texas, its second plant dedicated to manufacturing cars on US soil. Although deliveries have not yet started, the first customers are expected to receive their units in the coming weeks.

We're starting to see reports that Giga Texas will produce a standard range Model Y for the United States. This could be a 2170 or 4680 structural battery pack vehicle with LFP batteries, and could have a range of around 279 miles.
