Shortly after our spy photographers snapped a camouflaged prototype at the Nurburgring Nordschleife, a prototype has been filmed completely undisguised while testing in the German Alps. <\/p>\n<div class=\"ad-placement\">\n<div id=\"82503191-e1d1-435a-874f-9c78a2a54a2f\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"0f7e3106-c4d6-4db4-8135-c508879a76f8\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\tvar adpushup = window.adpushup  = window.adpushup || {que:[]};<br \/>\n\t\t\t\tadpushup.que.push(function() {<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\tif (adpushup.config.platform !== &#8220;DESKTOP&#8221;){<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tadpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;0f7e3106-c4d6-4db4-8135-c508879a76f8&#8221;);<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t} else {<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tadpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;82503191-e1d1-435a-874f-9c78a2a54a2f&#8221;);<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t}<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t});<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/05\/new-tesla-model-y-performance-breaks-cover-plaid-wheels-and-all\/\">New Tesla Model Y Performance Breaks Cover, Plaid Wheels And All<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It appears this fuzzy, rolling shot of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/tesla-model-y\/\">Model Y<\/a> Performance prototype was taken by the exterior cameras of another Tesla that was passing by. Just like the prototype we recently spotted, this one also appears to be rocking the same front bumper as all refreshed Model Ys. <\/p>\n<p>The footage, which appears to have been recorded by the external cameras of another Tesla driving nearby, gives us our clearest look yet at the updated Performance trim. Like the refreshed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/tesla-model-y\/\">Model Y<\/a> Juniper we&rsquo;ve already seen, the front bumper carries over the same design. <\/p>\n<div id=\"taboola-mid-article\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"taboola-mid-article-thumbnails-organic\"><\/div>\n<p>Spin around, though, and you&rsquo;ll see that it has a unique rear bumper. Like the standard Model Y, it&rsquo;s blacked out, but there are two small diffusers. While their aerodynamic effects will probably be tiny, they do make the Performance easy to pick from lesser versions. A new badge has also been added to the tailgate, likely mimicking the &lsquo;Plaid&rsquo; badge found on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/05\/one-of-these-evs-proves-you-cant-fake-your-way-to-performance\/\">Model 3 Performance<\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>The sporty EV also has some other noticeable changes. For starters, we&rsquo;re given another look at the 21-inch wheels that will be fitted exclusively to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/06\/tesla-might-surprise-you-with-a-new-six-seater-model-y\/\">the Model Y<\/a> Performance. Visible at the rear is also a much larger lip spoiler, giving the Model Y some much-needed sporty appeal.<\/p>\n<p>Then there&rsquo;s the color. This Model Y looks like it has a unique shade of burnt orange, but that might not be the case. The side cameras of Teslas with the HW3 self-driving computer often make red cars appear orange, reportedly because they lack an infrared cut filter. So, while this tester looks orange, it&rsquo;s very likely Tesla&rsquo;s existing shade of red.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of performance, the new model should have the same basic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/electric-vehicles\/\">dual-motor system<\/a> as the Model 3 Performance, delivering 510 hp and 554 lb-ft (751 Nm) of torque. That should allow it to hit 60 mph (96 km\/h) in just over three seconds. Quick enough to justify the badge, and probably quicker than most owners will ever need.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&#128293;&#128293; New Tesla Model Y Performance spotted uncovered in the Alps!<\/p>\n<p>&#9989; Sporty rear bumper<br \/>&#9989; New 21&rdquo; wheels<br \/>&#9989; Carbon fiber rear spoiler<br \/>&#9989; Performance badge<\/p>\n<p>H\/t <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/stenboo?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@stenboo<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Wo7kUm9ZXu\">pic.twitter.com\/Wo7kUm9ZXu<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"ad-placement\">\n<div id=\"9b1169d9-7a89-4971-a77f-1397f7588751\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"> <\/div>\n<div id=\"bb7964e9-07de-4b06-a83e-ead35079d53c\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"> <\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\tvar adpushup = window.adpushup  = window.adpushup || {que:[]};<br \/>\n\t\t\t\tadpushup.que.push(function() {<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\tif (adpushup.config.platform !== &#8220;DESKTOP&#8221;){<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tadpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;bb7964e9-07de-4b06-a83e-ead35079d53c&#8221;);<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t} else {<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tadpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;9b1169d9-7a89-4971-a77f-1397f7588751&#8221;);<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t}<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t});<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t\t&mdash; Tesla Newswire (@TeslaNewswire) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TeslaNewswire\/status\/1936138497892495774?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 20, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The popular EV has been fitted with a distinctive rear end and new 21-inch wheels.
