Tesla Model Y Quicksilver now available in Malaysia, costs an additional RM7,500 (VIDEO)
KUALA LUMPUR, April 1 — Tesla has added a new colour option for Model Y customers in Malaysia. Called Quicksilver, this particular colourway was first introduced in selected markets back in 2022.
From Berlin to Shanghai and Cyberjaya
For the longest time, the Quicksilver option was only available for Model Y units that were released in Europe and the Middle East. This doesn’t come as a total surprise though given that this colourway together with Midnight Cherry Red was developed at Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg in Germany.
According to Tesla, both of these colourways were formulated to “accentuate Model Y under every sky”. As for Quicksilver, it is meant to highlight Model Y’s design lines by delivering a liquid metal-like effect.
Fast forward to February 2024, Tesla began to offer the Quicksilver option in China which indicates that the paint has finally arrived at the Gigafactory Shanghai in China. Since the factory is responsible for producing units for the Malaysian market, it is just natural that the colour option is made available over here too.
