Deliveries of Model Y in the UK market have already begun. The first about 25 cars have already been handed over to owners, and the final mass car transfer event is scheduled for February 19.

The new Tesla Model Y has not only arrived in the UK, but the first customers have already received deli very. Smaller individual delivery events have already taken place across the country, including locations at Oyster Catcher in Anglesey, the Imperial War Museum in Manchester, Aerospace Bristol, Clumber Park in Nottinghamshire, the American Air Museum in Cambridge. The final mass car transfer event will take place at the Port of Southampton on Saturday, February 19.


In mid-October, Tesla opened the Model Y order page in the UK. Since then, customers have been awaiting arrival of their highly anticipated vehicles. Although the date of the first deliveries was listed as early 2022, no more precise information was provided. In early January, Tesla sent out emails to its customers inviting them to test Model Y, which was the first significant indication that deliveries would soon begin. As expected, the manufacturer began deliveries in the country in mid-February.

Demand for Model Y continues to grow and the company aims to expand its delivery to all markets. As the start of production at Giga Berlin continues to be delayed, Tesla's Chinese factory has taken over the load. According to recently released data, Giga Shanghai delivered 59,845 units in January, up 286.5% year on year, 40,499 of which were for export.
