Tesla’s Solid Black was formerly the only free color that Tesla offered with the Model Y, but now it is going to cost $2,000 to get your all-electric crossover in this color.
In diffferent markets, like Europe, Tesla offers two other colors for the Model Y: Quicksilver and Midnight Cherry Red. These are not available in the U.S. market and only in Europe, as the Tesla’s Gigafactory Berlin has a world-class paint shop that is the only one capable of producing these colors.
Tesla also announced earlier this month that it would begin wrapping vehicles in the U.S. with the introduction of seven new colors.
