Part 2/13:
The new Model Y, officially called the Launch Series, is available through Tesla’s configurator, allowing customers to customize options. Notably, the Launch Series includes several features and upgrades that significantly enhance value. For example, in the US, the price is set at about $60,000, yet this number belies the substantial value customers receive. The vehicle comes with high-demand features like a body-colored exterior (normally adding $2,000), upgraded wheels (worth roughly $2,000), a tow hitch (traditionally $1,000), and a white interior (typically an extra $1,000). Combined with the inclusion of Full Self-Driving (FSD) at $88,000, these features translate into total savings of roughly $133,000 when compared to purchasing similar options separately.
