According to obtained information, an updated code in the online configurator expects an electric SUV with a slightly different appearance, with a range of 279 miles (449 kilometers) and a price of US$ 61,990 (just over R$ 330,000 at the current exchange rate).

There are now two versions of the Tesla Model Y in the United States: the Long Range (330 miles of range, $ 65,990) and the Performance (303 miles of range, $ 69,990), both with all-wheel drive and dual motors.
In addition to these two models of the Tesla Model Y, also available in Europe at the prices indicated in the table below, there is a third model exclusive to the Old Continent: a rear-wheel drive model with a range of 430 kilometers and a price of 49,990 euros.

Well-Known
Other specifications indicate that the “new” Tesla Model Y will have all-wheel drive, two motors, and will feature the highly anticipated 4680 battery. In fact, according to our North American colleagues, this will be a version that the company distributed to a very small number of people in the past. Fortunately for Tesla employees and some customers who received direct offers.
However, the manufacturer hasn’t pushed further, as the CEO didn’t seem to like the reduced range of the SUV. But now he may have changed his mind. And the new Model Y appears to be arriving soon.
Meet the Tesla Model Y
Offered in the Tesla Model Y Long Range version, capable of traveling up to 507 km on a full charge, and in the Tesla Model Y Performance, which has a range of 480 km, both equipped with dual motors and all-wheel drive.
With impressive numbers, worthy of premium sports cars, the Tesla Model Y Performance version can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.7 s and reach 250 km/h, while the Tesla Model Y Long Range moves from a standstill to 100 km/h in 5 seconds and hits a maximum speed of 217 km/h.
The Tesla Model Y 2023 offers the option to choose between 5 or 7 passenger seats. With maximum versatility, the rear seats fold independently, creating flexible storage for all passengers’ luggage. The Tesla Model Y provides the most internal space available in its category, with over 2158 liters available in the frunk, the front trunk, and in the traditional rear trunk, with the possibility of extension by automatically folding and unfolding the seats.
The Tesla Model Y 2023, like the entire Tesla lineup, was entirely designed to be the safest vehicle in its category. The low center of gravity, the rigid chassis structure, and the large deformation zones provide unparalleled protection for its occupants.
