Tesla Model Y L six-seater officially launches in the US
The longer version of the Premium Model Y is finally launching in the US. The Model Y L was first introduced for the Chinese market and is now ready to roll on the streets of the US as well. This version has a slightly longer wheelbase, more interior space and, of course, three rows of seats that can host up to six people.
You can go to Tesla's official website and start configuring your Model Y L, but the only available trim for the time being is the Model Y L AWD Launch edition. It starts at $61,990, which is about $16,000 more expensive than the regular Model Y Premium.

Tesla prepares Model Y Performance comeback to China
Tesla wants to bring back one of its fastest electric cars to the world's biggest automotive market. Government documents show that the American automaker registered a new version of its popular crossover in China. Based on the official technical data, this vehicle marks the return of the high-performance Model Y. It seems Tesla is desperately trying to grab the attention of local buyers who are increasingly choosing domestic electric cars over foreign options.
The new vehicle details surfaced in the latest publication by China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. The government agency opened a public review period for the vehicle from July 11 to July 17. In the Chinese car market, vehicles that show up in these official filings usually arrive in showrooms and go on sale within a few months.
According to the official filing, the new variant will be built at the Tesla factory in Shanghai. The documents reveal that the upcoming SUV can reach a maximum top speed of 250 km/h. This is a much higher figure than the top speed of the other Model Y versions currently available in Chinese showrooms, which max out at 201 km/h.
Tesla uses a dual-motor all-wheel-drive powertrain in the new model, with each motor delivering different levels of power to the front and rear wheels. The front motor has a rating of 176 kW, and the rear motor generates 291 kW. These figures are nearly identical to the specifications that Model Y Performance offers in other markets.
