Roughly seven months after the Tesla Model Y was registered with Israel’s Ministry of Transport, Tesla has officially started taking orders for the all-electric crossover in the country through its website (via @ConnectingODots).
Israelis looking to get a Model Y will have to pay a pretty steep premium for the electric vehicle (EV), though, much like other Tesla models available in the country. Take a look at pricing and expected delivery dates for the Model Y in Israel:
Here’s what the current pricing and delivery windows for the Model 3, online orders for which launched in Israel early last year with deliveries going out in March 2021, look like:

Anyone looking to get a Model Y (or other Tesla EV) in Israel will have to put down a non-refundable deposit of $312 when placing an order.
According to Twitter user @Kern_Harst, a local Tesla employee has said that Model Y orders in Israel will receive deliveries from Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg, which started delivering cars last month.
Somebody at Tesla Israel told me, the Model Y delivered to Israel will be from Giga Berlin.

Tesla captured 60% of Israel’s EV market last year, with EV sales across the country going up 700% year over year.
