The Tesla Model Y is a fully electric crossover SUV, combining the performance and technology of the Tesla range with a versatile, family-friendly design. Depending on the variant, the Model Y offers a range of up to 330 miles (WLTP), with options including Long Range and Performance models.
The Tesla Model Y uses a Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable and has a maximum onboard charging capacity of 11 kW (AC). For the fastest home or public AC charging, we recommend the 3-Phase, 32A cable, which can deliver the full 11 kW and charge from empty to full in around 8 hours. The Model Y also supports DC rapid charging via Tesla's Supercharger network at up to 250 kW, allowing you to add up to 160 miles of range in around 15 minutes.
