Tesla will start deliveries of a revamped version of its Model Y SUV in the U.S. in March, according to new listings on the company’s website.

The Model Y Juniper has a price tag of $59,990, not including a federal tax credit of $7,500 for new electric vehicle purchases. It features a redesigned fascia, front and rear light bars and an upgraded interior with ventilated seats, reclining second-row seats and faster Wi-Fi, the website shows.

Tesla began taking orders for the new Model Y variant from customers in Canada and Europe on Thursday, and started sales in China about two weeks ago. CEO Elon Musk shared a video from the Tesla account on X Thursday night showing off the new Model Y.

Tesla is looking to revitalize its core automotive business, which faces increased competition across the globe. Executives are expected to discuss Tesla’s fourth-quarter and year-end results on Wednesday after markets close.

Tesla’s last new model, the angular steel Cybertruck, began rolling out to customers at the end of 2023. While it became the best-selling electric truck in the U.S. last year, sales didn’t make up for a decline in overall deliveries, which fell for the first time in 2024.

Musk, who also runs SpaceX and owns social media site X, has been at the center of attention in recent months because of his hefty financing of President Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign and his position in the newly elected president’s inner circle.

After his inauguration on Monday to begin his second White House term, President Trump signed an executive order indicating he will likely repeal the federal electric vehicle tax credit, which was approved by Congress during the Biden administration as part of the Inflation Reduction Act. Tesla has long benefited from the government-supported incentives, but ending the credits will likely have a more harmful impact on competitors in the EV market.

Prior to the release of the new Model Y variant, Musk’s political rhetoric, along with Tesla’s aging lineup, had led to a decline in the company’s reputation according to research from Brand Finance.

Google on Thursday blamed a “data error” after users reported that former President Joe Biden was missing from the company’s search results.

Users on Wednesday noticed that results for search queries that included “US Presidents,” “United States Presidents” and “US Presidents in order” did not include Biden, who concluded his four-year presidential term on Monday. Users reported seeing a list of presidents ranging from George Washington to President Donald Trump. Some users posted screenshots of their results showing how the lists omitted Biden.

CNBC tried searching for U.S. presidents on Wednesday night and also encountered the results that omitted Biden. The company restored Biden to its results on Thursday.

“There was a brief data error in our knowledge graph,” a company spokesperson said in an emailed statement to CNBC on Thursday. A knowledge graph is a broad term used to describe a system that holds connected information. “We identified the root cause and resolved it quickly.”

The mistake comes after Google CEO Sundar Pichai sent a memo to employees on Election Day in November, asking them to remember that people turn to the company’s services for “high-quality and reliable information.”

“Whomever the voters entrust, let’s remember the role we play at work, through the products we build and as a business: to be a trusted source of information to people of every background and belief,” Pichai wrote. “We will and must maintain that.”

Google’s Biden omission error comes as the company undergoes a turbulent period that has included several product mishaps and global scrutiny.

“It’s not lost on me that we are facing scrutiny across the world,” Pichai said in a December all-hands meeting first reported by CNBC. “It comes with our size and success. It’s part of a broader trend where tech is now impacting society at scale.”

Amid a year of product mistakes, Google launched Imagen 2, which turned user prompts into artificial intelligence-generated images. Immediately after it was introduced, the product came under scrutiny for historical inaccuracies discovered by users. The company pulled the feature for months before relaunching it, and Pichai told employees the company had “offended our users and shown bias.”

Google also faced problems with its AI summaries product AI Overview atop Google’s traditional search results, where users were also quick to find problems upon that launch.

Pichai has been among tech CEOs getting closer to Trump, who has previously alleged that Google intentionally buried search results of him. Those allegations are unproven. 

Google donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration fund, becoming one of several tech companies working to curry favor with the new administration. Pichai had a prominent standing position on stage alongside other tech CEOs at Trump’s inauguration Monday.

Shares of Electronic Arts headed for their steepest drop since 1999 after the video game publisher cut its full-year bookings guidance, due mostly to challenges with its soccer franchise.

The stock plummeted 19% to $115.86 as of mid-day on Thursday. That would be its worst day on the market since the dot-com bubble and the stock’s third-biggest drop since EA’s public market debut in 1990.

For the fiscal third quarter, which ended Dec. 31, EA said late Wednesday that it expects to report about $2.215 billion in net bookings, versus previous guidance of $2.4 billion to $2.55 billion. Revenue in the December quarter was about $1.88 billion, with $1.11 in diluted earnings per share, the company said in a statement.

EA said that “Dragon Age” and its EA Sports FC franchise “underperformed our net bookings expectations.”

“Weakness has been seen largely from the Global Football franchises,” analysts at Roth MKM wrote in a report on Thursday, calling the earnings pre-announcement a “big stumble.” They have the equivalent of a hold rating on the stock.

EA said it expects net bookings for the full fiscal year, ending March 31, of between $7 billion and $7.15 billion, below previous guidance of $7.5 billion to $7.8 billion. EA says net bookings include physical game sales as well as revenue from online games.

The warning points to weakness in the most prominent soccer video game franchise since 1993. It used to fall under the FIFA branding, but in 2022 EA’s deal with FIFA ended and the last two EA soccer games have been sold as EA Sports FC.

The company also said that role-playing game “Dragon Age” had 1.5 million players during the quarter, which was about 50% below its expectations.

EA said it expects Global Football sales to be down on a year-over-year basis, and said that bookings from online sales, or live services, would also decline in fiscal 2025. The company’s soccer franchise, accounted for the majority of the live services shortfall.

EA plans to release full third-quarter results on Feb. 4.
