Tesla China has priced its six-seat Model Y variant about 30 per cent higher than its basic edition and has started accepting orders from customers who prefer spacious, long-range electric vehicles (EVs) for family use.

Tesla posted a video showing the three-row Model Y L on its Weibo feed. The vehicle has powered armrests, a new logo badge, and a black headliner.

A brand-new Chinese electric vehicle has taken the market by storm, breaking sales records within minutes of launch. The car, designed to compete directly with Tesla’s Model Y, attracted an unbelievable rush of buyers as soon as it went on sale.

After test-driving a 2026 Model Y, one driver concluded that its improvements in efficiency and cabin noise are a testament to Tesla's progress. However, a key feature in the 2022 Model S left him wondering if Tesla’s pursuit of simplicity is worth it.

Tesla is putting an elongated version of the Model Y through its paces in Europe. The SUV has been stretched to provide a more spacious third row. A distinctive ducktail-style rear spoiler sets the new rear design apart.
