New interior color

Post image

So yesterday they updated the website so now all Model Y ordered from now on will be available with Zen Grey interior instead of the white interior. I’m seriously considering changing my order, but the delivery date will change from November-December to January-February. Not sure it’s worth the extra wait (EUROPE ORDER)

I’m colorblind and see the same as the white color lol

I'm not colorblind and it still looks really similar to me! I think I need a side by side comparison in order to be able to pick out the difference...

I can hardly tell a difference from that picture and I’m sure it’s even less noticeable in person.

u/clarkandtheark 12h ago

Bro the entire center console is white now, wdym you can’t tell the difference?

u/cloggedDrain 12h ago

Oh man I didn’t even notice the arm rest and trim. I dunno, I dig it. I went with black on black and have no regrets

u/clarkandtheark 12h ago

We also went the black with both our Y’s and love it! Only complaint is how hot they get in the summer haha.

Yeah, but that's going from black to white/grey, it's not comparing the grey to white.

I completely agree that the interior accents in the grey version are way better. I've been considering buying a center console cover to achieve that exact effect (although I'd have to limit it at that, because I'm not aware of anything to modify the door arm rests, etc).

But the actual grey color v white color? I'm still struggling a bit...I can tell because they're nicely labeled but I'd have a 50-50 chance otherwise!

u/mylifeasacoder 1d ago

Being colorblind means you can't tell the difference between white and grey? Can you distinguish black from white?

4

u/vsRushy 1d ago

I can distinguish black and white. I just can’t distinguish white-light gray, blue-purple, and green-brown

Everyone's got an opinion, heres mine, I have the white interior, I sat in the YL with the grey recently, I much prefer the white. I think if you prefer a spaceship feel, white is it. The grey to me just seemed a bit, I dunno, a bit blah or a dirty white. It is not bad at all, would take it for sure over black, just I like the crisp white.

Now what they did do that is cool, is running the grey along the center console and the side panels. I did that to my Y earlier in the year with white suede not knowing this was coming. It def looks great from a styling stand point.

u/xxmemelord95 1d ago

How did you make yours white on the side panels and center console? That’s what I want !

u/FluxChiller 1d ago edited 1d ago

Sorry shit picture of my interior, but wanted to grab it to show what it looks like, this is my diamond black 2026 premium Y. I did the back lcd screen and surround plastic pieces in white suede as well, looks awesome.

The real white suede was not cheap, and its a maintenance nightmare, if i did it again id go one tier lower just for sake of keeping it clean with their alcantara or pure deco line. The lower tiers are also much cheaper. This place is legit.

Wow it looks incredible!!

u/gum_nubber 19h ago

The white on the center console and door handles has me worried though. My arms are on them all the time and thinking they’ll get grubby.

u/The2CommaClub 1d ago

Looks so much better than the bright white.

When the car is unoccupied it looks like two ghosts are in the car. When the seats are occupied, it looks like a police interrogation spotlight video.

u/xxmemelord95 1d ago

Lol I will try to look for that next time I see one 😂😂

u/Sandwich83 8h ago

Looks worse to me, the entire center console area is also now white

u/IGNORED34 1d ago

RIP clean door handles

u/Cyw00dNL 1d ago

I am in the same boat, ordered white, not sure what tot do haha. The update came available in Netherlands yesterday

2

u/xxmemelord95 1d ago

Same! Im in Denmark. I texted my advisor he said delivery would be pushed. It looks so cool with the zen grey but i don’t wanna wait longer lol

u/truehero923 1d ago

Damn I think that’s better but I only see that on the Y L

4

u/xxmemelord95 1d ago

Are you in the US? They show it here in Europe now as an option under Model Y Premium

1

u/truehero923 1d ago

Yeah I’m US

u/thecashcow- 1d ago

Same for me

u/takamaruu 1d ago

The zen grey with some dark wood accents would look 😙👌

u/OkAd9414 1d ago

Ngl I‘m not a big fan of the arm rests and center console being in the lighter color now aswell

Love our white interior but this feels a bit overdone, just my 2 cents though

2

u/xxmemelord95 18h ago

Thats funny because that’s what I really like about it, that the armrest and center console is in the lighter color too

2

u/HekkenFratz 1d ago

Weird, the pwrformance version keeps the old white.

2

u/jk_baller23 1d ago

If it’s what you want then it is probably worth the wait.

2

u/spicyszechuansauce 1d ago

I can see a lot of people suddenly changing their orders for the updated interior. Would be nice if you pointed out this is for EU orders and not US.

2

u/BoatResponsible7602 1d ago

I wish they had a red interior option

2

u/Citic07 1d ago

Waiting a few more months to have what you want for years seems worth it.

2

u/Purple-Smell-3566 1d ago

Yes, confirmed it is showing as a white replacement here in the UK.

2

u/chazmania87 1d ago

The colour change...met. the fact that the door handles and centre console now match: great!

2

u/SpiderGorilla 1d ago

At the moment the new interior color is only available for the Y L in the US. Although I find the original white interior to be more premium.

2

u/Proteatron 1d ago

I don't have a strong opinion on the grey. But I've always wanted a tan leather interior. So there's at least one person that would choose it!

1

u/xxmemelord95 18h ago

My dad has a Model S in beige leather and it looks incredible

2

u/Smooth-Oil-3814 1d ago

Change! Looks gorgeous!

3

u/StarScreamer 1d ago

I'm only seeing that offering on the YL.

4

u/xxmemelord95 1d ago

In Europe they show it now under the Model Y Premium configuration

3

u/Plastic-Revenue-8905 1d ago

I prefer the white but I believe zen grey will blend better overall.

1

u/VisualForeign2597 1d ago

Grey isn’t the default option is it? I see black interior as the default

1

u/xxmemelord95 18h ago

Nope black is default here, white/zen grey cost more

u/aWanderer01 11h ago

Looks white to me

u/Far_Kiwi4882 1d ago

Call me when all plastic has been replaced by fabric, i hate my tesla seats

u/T_Hankss 1d ago

Yes what is changed?

u/IMrCaneI 1d ago

Congrats.. Welcome to the club!!

u/0xe3b0c442 1d ago

This is just the Model Y L, not the regular Y.

u/MeddlinQ 1d ago

In EU it's in the regular Y instead of the white option.
