Tesla CEO Elon Musk has indicated that Tesla will unveil its next vehicle, the Model Y crossover SUV, this year.
The video, titled"Tesla 2018," was posted to the company's YouTube profile and appears to show some of the projects the company plans to work on over the next few years. CEO Elon Musk called it the"Tesla quarterly all-hands video" on Twitter.
About 15 seconds in, the video cuts to a shot of a white vehicle that is mostly covered by a sheet, though a small portion of the vehicle's side and rear segments is visible.The Model Y will transform Tesla's manufacturing process."I think Model Y is going to be a manufacturing revolution," Musk said during Tesla's first-quarter earnings call.
Tesla is betting big on automation despite the fact that Model 3 production was delayed because of problems with new automated manufacturing systems at the Gigafactory and the automaker's assembly plant in Fremont, California. Musk has said many times that Tesla is focused on building the"machine that builds the machine," which basically means a highly automated manufacturing system.
Tesla is betting that its Model 3 manufacturing woes will ultimately set it up for a successful rollout of the Model Y.In a response to a Twitter follower asking if the Model 3 would have falcon-wing doors, Musk said that"there will be a Model 3 and a Model Y. One of the two will."A solar roof could also be an option.In November 2016, Musk said via Twitter that Tesla would likely begin to include solar roofs as an option for its cars.
