- 3:17standard range and 2021 is going to be the variant year.
- 3:25So they're going to start producing a variant of the model
- 3:29Y, which could be a higher range kind of thing, you know.
- 3:33So that's all we know for now, this is everything that I know
- 3:38personally about the model y. Now let's get into the price of
- 3:42this thing. So, everybody knows about the
- 3:47model. S being super expensive, right?
- 3:49It's a, it's a high-end vehicle. The model 3 is at the lower end
- 3:54and there's somewhere in the middle, right?
- 3:58So you need something, the model X is pretty cool, but it's not
- 4:01for everybody. It's not a regular vehicle.
- 4:03It's pretty much a minivan. It's a, it's a SUV.
- 4:07It has a lot of room and not a lot of people.
- 4:10While there are a lot of people that need that, but there are
- 4:11some people didn't need something in between, Mean the
- 4:14model S and the model 3, there are 3, long-range verges on the
- 4:19model Y which will cost from 48,000 to 61 thousand dollars.
- 4:26And that will also it'll cost you about 1,200 bucks for
- 4:32Destination and handling. So, if they're going to ship it
- 4:33to you, but the there's going to be a Powertrain options, it's
- 4:39going to be all wheel drive, all wheel drive rear wheel drive.
- 4:43And performance all wheel drive. So there's three packages their
- 4:47standard battery version which is going to be thirty, nine
- 4:51thousand dollars will be available in Spring of twenty
- 4:54Twenty-One at the earliest and all the model y options, cost up
- 5:01to 16 thousand dollars above MSRP.
- 5:06That's the non performance versions in fourteen thousand
- 5:09five hundred dollars for the performance version, which means
- 5:12that they fully Loaded model y. With everything.
- 5:17Destination and handling will be around 77 thousand dollars if
- 5:26you don't need the full self driving capability, that's a
- 5:29another five thousand dollars. You can knock off or seating for
- 5:33seven, you can knock off another 3,000 so that's an extra eight
- 5:39thousand dollars knocked off the price.
- 5:41So that goes down to about sixty one sixty eight thousand dollars
- 5:45somewhere around there. So there's a performance version
- 5:48which will be available in Fall 2020 that's for 61 thousand
- 5:52dollars. Estimated EPA range is 280 miles
- 5:56as 451 km a zero to sixty three point.
- 6:00One three point five seconds. Top speed of 150 miles per hour.
- 6:05The long-range all-wheel drive is 52 thousand dollars fall of
- 6:092020. The EPA range is 280 miles.
- 6:14Estimated zero to 60 will be in 4.8 seconds, top speed is 135
- 6:20miles per hour. The long-range rear-wheel-drive
- 6:2448 thousand dollars that's in Fall of 2020. 300-mile range
- 6:31zero to 60 in five point five seconds.
- 6:33Top speed of 130 miles an hour standard range rear-wheel drive.
- 6:37This is the one that, you know, it's probably I'll be going to
- 6:40be the one that most people get this little bit cheaper
- 6:44thirty-nine thousand dollars, two hundred and thirty mile
- 6:48range and the zero to 60 is 5.9 seconds, top speed is 120 miles
- 6:55an hour. If you're going for the 39,000
- 6:58Mi R 33, 39 thousand dollar option that's in Spring of
- 7:03twenty Twenty-One standard range rear-wheel drive.
- 7:07Another 9,000 dollars will get you an extra 70 miles of range.
- 7:12A little bit faster on the on the start.
- 7:15But there's really not a huge huge difference.
- 7:19Other than the 70 mile range because they come with the same
- 7:24Wheels 18-inch wheels. The only one that comes with
- 7:28bigger performance tires, is the performance model which 61
- 7:32thousand dollars and they come with 20-inch Performance Wheels.
- 7:35So, For that. It's going to range anywhere
- 7:40between thirty nine thousand dollars to 61 thousand dollars
