Is anyone going to acknowledge that people are waiting for the new model to be released, and this happens even with iPhones.

If even HackerNews can't have a rational discussion about Tesla then we're all doomed!

For your hypothesis to be true you'd see falling Model y numbers but somewhat steady Model 3 numbers, since that was refreshed only in 2023 and is in no danger of getting a new refresh.

That is not the case. I took a look at the German numbers for Januaries 2025 and 2024 and Model 3 fell proportionally the same as Model Y in the YoY numbers:
