Tesla's Model Y refresh has been a topic of speculation, with sightings of camouflaged vehicles in China and reports suggesting a production start in 2025. Despite rumors, Tesla and CEO Elon Musk stated no refresh is planned for 2024. The refreshed Model Y is expected to feature design updates similar to the new Model 3, including a new ambient lightbar and a red light bar between the taillights. A new 7-seat version is expected in China. Tesla's energy storage business is expanding, with Megapack production reaching full capacity at the Lathrop Megafactory, while its solar business is being phased out. The Shanghai Megafactory is on track to begin Megapack shipments in Q1 2025.
