But first, we want to remind you that you can buy home and commercial charging stations in our online shopas well as charging at our public charging stations ECOFACTOR across the country, using our application, available for iOS and Android.

Engine and performance

The Tesla Model Y Long Range is distinguished by its performance, which depends on the chosen modification. The car is available with all-wheel drive for those who like dynamic driving, and with rear-wheel drive for those who want maximum range.

Dual Motor AWD features two independent electric motors on the front and rear axles for all-wheel drive. This allows you to maintain stability even in difficult road conditions, such as slippery or snowy roads. The car guarantees excellent dynamics and quick response to driver actions.

Characteristics of Dual Motor AWD:

• Acceleration 0-100 km/h: 5.0 seconds
• Top speed: 140 km/h
• Power: 378 kW
• Torque: 493 Nm

This modification is suitable for those who appreciate confident handling, high speed and stability on the road in all conditions.

The RWD version uses a single electric motor located on the rear axle. This makes the car more economical in terms of energy consumption and has a longer range. This option is ideal for smooth roads and a relaxed driving style.

RWD characteristics:

• Acceleration 0-100 km/h: 5.9 seconds
• Top speed: 140 km/h
• Power: 250 kW
• Torque: 450 Nm

Thus, the choice of modification depends on your driving style. Dual Motor AWD is the perfect choice for dynamic driving, while RWD is aimed at long journeys with economical energy consumption.

Power reserve

The range of the Tesla Model Y Long Range is one of its main advantages, which makes this model versatile for both daily trips and long journeys.

For Dual Motor AWD, the range in real-world conditions is 445 km. In favourable weather conditions, such as warm weather without climate control, it can reach 515 km. The car is perfect for long-distance driving, striking a balance between performance and autonomy.

Dual Motor AWD:

• City (cold weather): 430 km
• Combined cycle (warm weather): 515 km
• Motorway (cold weather): 320 km

For RWD, the range is even greater - in favourable conditions, it can reach 665 km, which is an excellent figure for a crossover. In warm weather, this modification allows you to drive up to 525 km in the city, making it ideal for economical drivers.

RWD:

• City (cold weather): 435 km
• Combined cycle (warm weather): 525 km
• Motorway (cold weather): 325 km

It is important to bear in mind that the actual range depends on the operating conditions, including speed, driving style, terrain and the use of climate control systems.

Battery

Tesla Model Y Long Range is equipped with a modern lithium-ion battery that ensures stable operation of the car. This battery is designed for long-term operation even in difficult climatic conditions.

Main battery parameters:

• Rated capacity: 78.1 kWh

This design allows for an optimal balance between capacity, weight and efficiency. The battery is warranted for 8 years or 192,000 km, which underlines its reliability and durability.

Charging

The Tesla Model Y Long Range supports a variety of charging options, making it convenient for both daily use and long journeys. The car is equipped with ports for home charging and also supports fast charging at high-power stations. This provides maximum flexibility for electric vehicle owners, regardless of the available infrastructure.

For home charging, the Type 2 port is used, which allows the battery to be charged to full level using a standard 11 kW charger. This charging method is convenient for owners of private homes or garages with access to a suitable network.

Home charging options:

• Power: 11 kW
• Charging time for 100%: 8 hours 15 minutes
• Charging speed: 55-57 km/h

For long journeys, Tesla Model Y Long Range supports fast charging at CCS Combo stations. The maximum fast-charging power is 250 kW, which saves a lot of time. For example, it takes only 27 minutes to charge a battery from 10% to 80%.

Fast charging options:

• Maximum power output: 250 kW
• Charging time of 10-80%: 27 minutes
• Charging speed: up to 700 km/h

Fast charging is a key benefit for those who plan to use the car for long-distance journeys. Compatibility with the majority of charging stations in Europe provides additional convenience.

Thus, the Tesla Model Y Long Range offers flexible charging options that are suitable for a variety of use cases, from charging at home to using fast charging stations when travelling.
