A limited-run Launch Series edition marks the start of production for the ‘Juniper’ facelift of the Model Y, and this is identified by a rear liftgate badge, puddle lamp logo, Launch Series wordmarks on the doorsill plates and device charging console, and vegan suede material (where the black interior is specified).
Two variants of the Model Y Juniper are listed, starting with the Rear-Wheel Drive at the aforementioned RM195k and this brings 466 km of range (WLTP), with the single-motor powertrain propelling the SUV from 0-100 km/h in 5.9 seconds and on to a top speed of 201 km/h.
From the outset, this is also joined by the Long Range All-Wheel Drive variant, and the dual-motor equipped version gets nearly 100 km of additional range, at 551 km (WLTP). Priced here at RM242,450, the Long Range AWD does 0-100 km/h in 4.3 seconds and the same top speed at 201 km/h.
Rolling stock is a set of 19-inch ‘Crossflow’ alloy wheels in a dark finish as standard, or buyers may opt to step up in size to the 20-inch ‘Helix 2.0’ set for a RM10,000 premium. For exterior colours, Stealth Grey is a no-cost selection, while Pearl White Multi-Coat is a RM5,000 option; Glacier Blue is a RM7,500 option, while Quicksilver and Ultra Red are pried at RM11,000.
Technical revisions to the Model Y in this facelift bring new designs for the wheels and rear diffuser to reduce drag and to ‘optimise lift balance’ between the front and rear wheels for less noise and improved stability at high speeds, says Tesla.
The Model Y also gets a quieter cabin thanks to double-layered acoustic glass for all windows, while the panoramic glass roof gains a silver coating to reduce transmission of UV rays and heat into the cabin.
Inside, a black interior scheme is standard, or a black and white combination can be specified for an additional RM5,000. The cabin takes on cues from its recently facelifted stablemate, the Model 3 ‘Highland’, such as the wrap-around interior ambient lighting, 15.4-inch central touchscreen, ventilated seats, and an eight-inch touchscreen display for second-row seats.
At a glance, Taiwan appears to be the only market to receive the 2025 Model Y ‘Juniper’ with a black exterior paint finish. According to the Tesla Taiwan website, the Model Y is offered solely in Long Range All-Wheel Drive guise from NT$2,449,900 or RM333,936 in Taiwan.
In terms of options, Enhanced Autopilot is listed at RM16,000 and is comprised of Navigate on Autopilot, Auto Lane Change, Autopark, and Dumb Summon; Actually Smart Summon will be coming to this feature set in the future, according to the page.
Meanwhile, Full Self-Driving Capability is listed at RM32,000, and the features from Basic Autopilot and Enhanced Autopilot will be joined by Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control as well as Autosteer on city streets at a later date. Pricing for Enhanced Autopilot and FSD are as before, however the latter has yet to be permitted for use in Malaysia.
