Tesla Model Y Quicksilver delivery starts in the US

Tesla Model Y Quicksilver color option delivery started for some customers in the US. The model was announced earlier this month in the configurator. This delivery confirmation is coming from Reddit users who shared pictures of the model. However, the delivery will be carried out in batches.

Quicksilver paint was first announced for Model Y Inventory last month. On May 4, Tesla expanded the color availability to configurator for Long Range and Performance version models. The new quicksilver costs $2,000 extra leading color options to six for Model Y in the US.

Tesla Model Y Long Range is priced at $47,990 and the Performance version at $51,490. If you choose the quicksilver paint, these prices will be $49,990 and $53,490 respectively.

The Tesla Model Y is eligible for a $7,500 federal EV tax credit. Therefore, these prices with added quicksilver will go down to $42,490 and $45,990 respectively. The tax credit is available to claim at the point of delivery, which makes a big difference in the purchase price.

The Long Range Model Y brings a 310-mile range, 135 miles per hour top speed, and 0-60 mph acceleration in 4.8 seconds. The Performance version offers a 279-mile range, 155 mph top speed, and 0-60mph acceleration in 3.5 seconds.
