Tesla Model Y, Tesla Pickup, Tesla Minibus and Tesla Semi Truck are the four next Tesla products to arrived after the Tesla Model 3. This is confirmed as part of Tesla CEO Elon Musk's plan to dominate all segment in the automotive industry and is expected to debut before 2020. Musk also assured that all future Tesla vehicles will have the appropriate hardware to have a full self-driving capability and longer autonomy.
"Currently we are present in two segments which [sic] are relatively small, the premium SUV and sedans. With the release of Model 3, an affordable sedan, we want to go further and produce a future crossover, a unique pickup and more," said Musk
Also included in Musk's masterplan is the ability for car owners to make money with their car when it is not being used. Musk wants Tesla to be more than just a car manufacturer and the idea of Musk may involve the creation of a similar service to Uber's now self-driving fleet but will be in the form of minibusses and semi trucks.
Musk promises to advance more details about his plans for the next year when the studies of future models should be shown. Meanwhile, let us take a look at the four new Tesla vehicles that will arrive in the next three years.
Tesla Model Y Crossover
Although its still not its official name, the future crossover of Tesla was dubbed the Model Y due to a statement made by Musk in a quarterly investor call that said the company’s four vehicles would follow the “S-E-X-Y” format. The Model S and X are already here while the Model 3, which will serve as the E will come next year. So the crossover will probably get the Y.
The Tesla model Y is said to be built on the same third generation platform as the Model 3 but will feature the same falcon door of the Model X. Although there is no news yet about the Model Y, sources are saying that it is already in the advanced stages of development and is said to be revealed soon, according to Electrek
