Tesla Inc. plans to suspend part of the lines manufacturing its recently refreshed Model Y sport utility vehicle in Shanghai for around three weeks over Chinese New Year so it can better optimize equipment,

Tesla barely started production of the refreshed Model Y at Giga Shanghai and is already pausing it to make upgrades necessary to scale output

Tesla launched a new version of the Model Y, its best-selling car, in China on Friday, hoping that a redesigned exterior and upgraded features inside will help it regain market share taken by rivals such as Xiaomi.

Tesla's long-awaited "Juniper" refresh of the Model Y has just launched in China.

Visual changes to the updated Model Y, which was the best-selling global vehicle in 2023, include front and rear light bars that echo the wildly styled Tesla Cybertruck.

Several sources claim that Tesla has already built the first new Model Y at its Gigafactory in Berlin, Germany. According to German media outlet Handelsblatt, the company was scheduled to start producing the new car, also known by its codename "Juniper", on Tuesday.

(Reuters) - Tesla plans to suspend part of the lines manufacturing its recently refreshed Model Y sport utility vehicles in Shanghai for around three weeks over Chinese New Year, Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter. Tesla did not immediately respond to Reuters' request for comment.

A new report states that Tesla will pause part of new Model Y production at Gigafactory Shanghai for 3 weeks to upgrade the lines. The shutdown will extend beyond the regular Chinese New Year. The Chinese New Year is technically 2 weeks long,

More photos and a video of the new Model Y have been circulating on social media in China as Tesla begins delivering the first cars to dealerships across the country.
