TESLA'S NEW MODEL Y L IS HERE! 10 MAJOR CHANGES!

EV Channels Review

Tesla has officially launched the Model Y L, a significant new iteration that expands the popular SUV's capabilities and luxury. The "L" designation, likely standing for 'Longer' or 'Luxury,' introduces a physically larger and taller vehicle that slots between the Model Y and Model X. Key upgrades include a true six-seat configuration with usable third-row space, enhanced interior comfort with ventilated and heated seats in the second row (and heated in the third), and a larger 16-inch infotainment display. The sound system also sees an improvement with more speakers and a subwoofer. While exterior changes are subtle, new features like the Starlight Gold paint and updated wheel covers are present. The reviewer highlights the improved ride quality thanks to an adaptive damping system. Estimated range is around 327 miles, with a 0-60 mph time of 4.5 seconds, comparable to the current Long Range AWD. Pricing in China is around $47,000 USD, but the US price is expected to be higher, likely exceeding $50,000, especially after the federal tax credit expires. The Model Y L is currently exclusive to the Chinese market, with global availability, including North America, anticipated in Q4.
