Eight mysterious Tesla EVs have been spotted under wraps at the company’s Fremont factory test track in California, hinting at multiple new products from the world’s leading electric car brand.
In a drone flyover by drone operator at Tesla’s Fremont factory, video of 8 covered cars has emerged with many pundits guessing what they might be.
Images from the video taken by YouTuber metgodinwilderness7130 were shared by Tesla enthusiast SERobinsonJr on X, showing these vehicles which parked together in one section of the test track.
Seven out of eight cars appear to be similar in size while the eighth vehicle one has a shorter height, hinting at a sedan or a coupe body type.

The seven similar models could be the upcoming refreshed Model Y which is expected to be unveiled in the first quarter of 2025.
In recent months, sighting of this model have been spotted in China and other parts of the US as well.
The slightly shorter car spotted under wraps might be the upcoming Tesla Roadster, which today will be 7 years after its original unveiling.
On the other hand, some Tesla fans are even suggesting that it could be a refreshed Model S, a successor to the current Model S which has been in the market for nearly 5 years.
That model has never made it to Australia after Tesla decided that they would not be building it in right hand drive configuration.
Previously, Tesla has hinted that it’s Model S and Model X are not going to be it’s priorities into the future as the volume of Model 3 and Model Y far exceed production of these larger models.
That makes it unlikely for Tesla to be working on a refreshed Model S when other products such as the Robotaxi are more pressing for the company’s autonomous future.
Last month Tesla revealed two new products and provided an update on its humanoid robot. These products are not likely to be ready by 2025, while the cars spotted in Fremont are looking to be in the final stages of development.
More information on these models are likely to be revealed in the coming months as Tesla gears up to reveal multiple new models in 2025.
