Redesigned From End to End
From the front bumper to the taillight, the exterior is completely redesigned to unlock maximum efficiency so you can get the most range out of every charge. With updated suspension, wheels, and tires, your ride will be smoother and quieter.
Exterior Updates
The refreshed Model Y draws styling cues from Tesla’s highly anticipated Cybertruck. The redesigned front fascia features a smoother, sleeker appearance, while the rear sports a full-width light bar for a modern and futuristic look. These changes make the Model Y more aerodynamic, contributing to improved efficiency.

The interior has received a significant overhaul, emphasising minimalism and functionality. Key updates include:
- Larger Central Touchscreen: The 15.4-inch display is now brighter and more responsive, offering an improved user experience.
- Enhanced Materials: Premium finishes like vegan leather and real wood trims elevate the cabin’s luxury feel.
- Comfort Features: Heated and ventilated seats, along with a new ambient lighting system, create a cosy environment for passengers.
Performance and Range
The Long Range All-Wheel Drive variant is currently the only available configuration for the UK launch. It boasts:
- Range: Up to 353 miles on a single charge (WLTP standards).
- Acceleration: 0 to 60 mph in just over 4 seconds.
- Top Speed: 135 mph.
Tesla has also introduced an improved battery management system, which enhances charging efficiency and overall battery longevity.

- Autopilot Enhancements: Advanced driver-assistance features, including lane centring, adaptive cruise control, and traffic-aware navigation.
