Recent sightings of camouflaged Tesla Model Y vehicles across the United States have fueled speculation about potential updates to the popular electric crossover. Despite Tesla’s official silence on the matter, these test vehicles suggest the company may be preparing significant changes to the Model Y’s design.

Recent Sightings

A Tesla Model Y with its rear fully camouflaged was recently photographed in Palo Alto, California. This follows similar sightings in the Bay Area last month, indicating a pattern of testing for a variant with concealed front and rear modifications.

“Project Juniper” Rumors

These sightings have reignited discussions about the rumored “Project Juniper,” an initiative reportedly aimed at upgrading the Model Y. While Tesla CEO Elon Musk has dismissed claims of a Model Y “refresh” this year, the persistent appearances of disguised prototypes suggest ongoing development.

Industry observers speculate that these updates could mirror the recent “Highland” refresh of the Model 3, which Tesla now markets as the “reengineered Model 3.” Given the shared components between the Model 3 and Model Y, similar upgrades to the crossover’s exterior and interior seem plausible.

In late July, purported leaked images of the “Juniper” Model Y surfaced online. These spy shots allegedly showed:

  1. An interior layout similar to the reengineered Model 3
  2. A rear featuring a red light bar with “TESLA” branding

While these developments hint at forthcoming changes to the Model Y, Tesla has not confirmed any official timeline or details for a potential update. The company’s approach of continuous improvement, rather than traditional model year updates, adds to the uncertainty surrounding the speculated “Juniper” project.

As Tesla continues its testing phase, enthusiasts and industry watchers remain eager for official announcements regarding the future of the Model Y.
