About this episode

The Tesla Motors Club crew breaks down the latest Model Y “refresh” details from leaked Australian info, debating the new light bar, the removal of the gear/shift stalk, and whether Tesla’s updates are meaningful or just styling. They also score last year’s 2024 predictions (including RoboTaxi and supercharger growth) and then lay out 2025 forecasts: no brand-new Tesla model, continued FSD progress but no coast-to-coast driverless rides, and uncertainty around hardware upgrades for hardware 3 owners. The discussion also covers Cybertruck sales, RoboTaxi timelines, Optimus competition, and a surprising detour into SLS rocket politics.

Topics: model y refresh details light bar debate stalk removal and shift-by-button ventilated seats and feature creep front camera expectations fsd hardware 3 upgrade path supercharger stall growth and magic dock cybertruck delivery numbers and production ramp robotaxi delivery timelines optimus competition and delivery expectations
