The Tesla Model Y has been named 2026 Drive Car of the Year overall winner, taking the top honor after being judged as the vehicle that "moves the game forward the most for Australian new car buyers." The Model Y is already Australia's best-selling EV in 2025 and the tenth best-selling vehicle overall, but the vehicle's Juniper update strengthened its case with new ownership benefits and expanded software capability.

The achievement was shared by the official Tesla Manufacturing account on social media platform X. "Congratulations to the Giga Nevada team for producing their 6 millionth Drive Unit!" Tesla wrote. The photo showed numerous factory workers assembled on the production floor, proudly holding golden balloons that spelled out "6000000″ in front of drive unit assembly stations. Elon Musk gave credit to the Giga Nevada team, writing, "Congrats on 6M drive units!" in a post on X.

Tesla's opening of its Supercharger network to non-Tesla vehicles could revolutionize electric vehicle accessibility in America, making the transition to EVs substantially easier for drivers.
