Recently, some overseas netizens took a photo of a crimson Tesla Model Y, from which it can be basically determined that this car was produced in Tesla's Berlin Gigafactory in Germany and painted in its paint workshop.
From the pictures, the new car uses the previously exposed Deep Crimson Multicoat deep red body exterior livery, a color that Tesla has never used before. A source said, "I saw a few dark red images up close, and it was gorgeous."
In October, Tesla showed off two new Model Y body colors, including Deep Crimson Multicoat (deep red) and Abyss Blue Multicoat (dark blue), which have an 8-layer coating that provides better gloss than current multi-coated car paints and is expected to provide higher hardness.
In addition, a Mercury Silver Multicoat (Mercury Silver) has been added, but not in multiple coating colors.
From the actual effect, the new color scheme is deeper and more advanced, which enhances the freshness of the vehicle to a certain extent and highlights the sense of design. Among them, the new dark red is darker than the existing red, and the new dark blue and mercury silver appear lighter than the existing deep sea blue and cold silver.
At present, in the exterior painting of the Model Y model, in addition to the black free in China, the rest of the color selection fee is 8,000 yuan. In the United States, except for white and silver, the cost of other color options ranges from 1000-2000 US dollars. Due to the increase in the number of coatings and the difficulty of the process, the new color is expected to be higher than the above color.
Previously, Tesla only provided 5 exterior paint colors to the Model Y model, which is not rich for a model that is more technological and sporty, and these five colors have also been used for a long time, and it is expected that the launch of the new color match will provide consumers with more choices.
