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.
The 4.3-second sprint time is achieved with Acceleration Boost that comes with the initial Launch Series run of cars. At present, it remains to be seen if the feature will continue into regular production of the Model Y Juniper facelift, Tesla Malaysia has told paultan.org. For reference, the pre-facelift, 2023 Model Y Long Range AWD did the 0-100 km/h run in 5.0 seconds, and 4.5 seconds with Acceleration Boost.
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 priced 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.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
gotta say, these Teslas have no soul in the design. all looked very generic like any other china cars.
Only LR suitable to travel long distance
The standard RWD better play in town
their standard range (466km WLTP) is equivalent to most china EV’s “long range”.
not to mention most china brands use tipu CLTC range.
Take my money.
Tesla hold better RV
Than most other EV
Most 2yo lost 45%
Basically the same “Pregnant Model 3” design with some added LED bars.
Habis la BYD Anjing Laut… Boleh bungkus siap siap simpan dalam museum
Please. Compare with cina car? Cina cat at much lower standard
After BYD seen the Model Y spec I highly believe they feel release and less pressure. Model Y rwd is using same battery type LFP like the one found in BYD. The driving range of both Model Y rwd and Sealion 7 rwd are pretty similar slightly beyond 450km WLTP (Sealion 7 long range is about 484km WLTP). Both holding similar changing speed of DC 150kw for BYD and 170kw for Model Y. Good also they not fight crazily makes the other competitors sunk deeper.
That is one ugly junk.
in china, most people buy Tesla, and complain about BYD.
only malaysian think BYD is a premium EV brand.
And that’s why the Atos3 continues to sell at that over priced in Malaysia when you already have better options like Xpeng and Zeekrs.
weirdly in US, everyone thinks Teslas are crap.
because petrol/hybrid is far superior there
Most people buy Tesla in China? You got your data from 5 years ago, I see.
Wow,
TESLA model Y juniper World Premiered
Malaysia and China
Tesla copied the Xpeng G6. Like Iphone to get most of features and upgrades need to fork out even more.
Only advantage Tesla has is the FSD and Advanced Autopilot which to me is useless and overpriced here. For me no need FSD, autopilot and smart summon. Baik beli G6
cakap banyak tapi your budget beli honda city jea..
all these PT trolls talking crap about one brand over another but daily P2 or B-segment jap cars.
Hmmm…. Imma wait for a full review and comparison to CHINA counterparts. Specs wise, its incredibly meh. Range is still nothing special. Saving grace is that its fast. However Xpeng G6 seems to be a better value buy.
So nothing super compelling from the Model Y Juniper facelift. I expected better from TESLA. (Hmmm …. is this why Elon has been cozying up to Trump? Wants to place tariffs on China competitors to give his product a more competitive edge?)
Say no to fucking fascist Musk
wow, hats off. talk about bringing back the competition. AWD is now long range as well….nice.
Finally got signal stalk. This gonna outsell the Model 3 in Malaysia very soon.
Tesla is the undisputed king of EV, every single Chinese EV was copied from them. When an oem wants ti enter China they have to submit all their car info and plans as well as blueprints to Gov. They have all the rights to them . They pass the data to their own car makers to copy. Whatever they make they can’t beat Tesla technology and brand . Shanghai is Tesla cult country now . Their sales figures there are correct as they sell direct unlike BYD and rest that dump their cars to dealers and declare its sale !!!!!
Elon Fansi, Elong Ma, enough of Cina car, Ahmad Azizi all the same guy with a hard on for Tesla. Dude, trolling wont earn you peanuts let alone a car.
what kind of auto maker is this? yesterday spy shot, today already launched?
Tesla never do research ah? you see, Proton put thousands of engineers to build the first Malaysian electric cars with so many camouflage testings sighted. this Tesla got no camouflage at all.
Proton even gave us further 7 months of teaser for emas7. Taking so many precious resource of Proton Design team to design the camouflage stickers alone. I suspect Proton took more than 700 man-days for the sticker design. This Tesla thinks that they’re so good, no need give us teaser in camouflage?
hey Tesla, please learn manufacturing 101 from Proton. our proud national car maker.
*disclaimer: the above comment is made with full sarcastic intent. please don’t be so serious*
Only junk little kid think in this way.
Better this and byd than stupid yahudi bmw or mercedes
Better eat other foods than stupid roti canai
Most people commenting here can’t afford an EV, very funny
Their website does not even bother to use proper image for Malaysian market. Steering still on the left.
so do most other european brands – what’s your point?
Heard from Tesla office pic, they already secure 45k booking since open booking for model Y..fuyooo
You mean like the 100k+ bookings Tesla announced for the Cybertruck but less than 10% actually bought one? Tesla is the ultimate hype machine, in case you are still wondering.
BYD does the same – have you not read the news about the turmoil in the china auto industry with overinflated sales numbers.
