Tesla's next vehicle will be a compact crossover codenamed Redwood and widely anticipated to be marketed as Model 2. Production should start in late 2025, according to the latest reports, and it will be made in both Mexico and Berlin, Germany. That's an important bit of information to keep in mind, since now a drone shot has revealed a very interesting vehicle in one of the parking lots of Tesla's Giga Berlin factory. It's obviously smaller than the Model Y behind it, and it doesn't quite look like any other Tesla that's been launched so far.
Could this be the mythical Model 2, the
Tesla for the masses? Well, maybe. Then again, why would Tesla just leave it
there in a dirt parking lot for all drones to see? Unless of course it wanted
the attention, which wouldn't be out of the question either. Building hype
years in advance of a model's release is something Tesla is pretty good at -
just ask the Cybertruck.
According to some people on the internet,
it could be nothing more than a partially torn down Model Y, or even a teardown
of a competitor like Ford's Mustang Mach-E. The latter theory can't really be
disproved when all we have are drone shots from so far away, but the former
idea, that this is a Model Y, seems off considering the proportions compared to
the Model Y sitting right next to the mystery car.
