Elon Musk confirmed the information during the Q3 2018 financial call

During the Tesla Q3 2018 Financial Call – it was confirmed that the Tesla Model Y prototype was approved for production.

This is a great news for everyone that was hyped about it.  For those who aren’t familiar with it, the Model Y will be an all-electric crossover that’s quite likely to be even more popular than the Model 3 – a car that saw like half a million people put down a $1,000 deposit long before it ever reached production.

The Model Y will be revealed to the public in March 2019. 

According to the recent internet rumor mill, the vehicle will utilize the Model 3 chassis, possible with the falcon wing doors.  Much alike the one on the Model X SUV luxury family hauler.
