EVWire brief: We’ve got spy shots! We heard Lars Moravy, Tesla’s VP of Vehicle Engineering, tease that Model S & X will “get some love” later part of the year. Now this is confirmed, and we’ve been waiting for the obvious New Model Y Performance drop after the base launch as well. Now, one by one:

Model Y Performance

Tesla Model Y Performance was spotted under camouflage in the Nürburgring track by CarScoops, with larger wheels and a more aggressive ride height (sitting lower than usual). Wheels seem to be similar to the Arachnid rims found on the Model S Plaid. The front bumper might be tweaked later on we think, this one looks to be standard for now.

New Model X & Model S

New Model X and Model S versions were spotted in Monterey, with front cameras under the bumper (new), new wheels, and new light blue metallic color.

Here’s what seems to be the same vehicle in motion:

The interior was covered with a blanket on TechieDani’s find, but in another pic from @klwtts we saw some taping exactly where ambient lighting would be, so that’s very likely to come too:

The New Model S Plaid seems to be in the works too, based on these Nürburgring spy shots from InsideEVs that also show an additional front lip and new front bumper design, and new wheels:

Judging from these images, all four trims here seem very close to launch, especially the Model X and S that were openly parked almost in full view there.
