The Tesla Model Y is a battery electric compact crossover SUV[5] produced by Tesla, Inc. since 2020. The vehicle was presented in March 2019 as the company's fifth production model since its inception after the Roadster, Model S, Model X and Model 3.
After its 2019 introduction, the Model Y started production at the Fremont Factory in California, US in January 2020.[6] Production at Giga Shanghai, China was added in December 2020, and at Giga Texas, US since late 2021.[1][7] Deliveries from Giga Berlin, Germany started in March 2022.[8]
The Model Y is based on the Model 3 sedan and serves as a larger variant, with around 76 percent of parts being shared between the two and identical exterior and interior styling.[9][10] While most Model Y are configured with two-row seating, in the US the Model Y offers optional third-row seats for a seven-passenger seating capacity.[11][12]
In 2023, Tesla delivered 1.2 million Model Ys, making it the world's best-selling vehicle that year, surpassing the Toyota Corolla and becoming the first electric vehicle to claim that title.[13] With at least 2.16 million units delivered since its start of production up to December 2023, the Model Y is also the most popular electric vehicle of all time.[14] Tesla claims the Model Y was again the best-selling vehicle in the world in 2024.[15]
Deliveries are being delayed as an improved and refreshed Model Y was revealed in January 2025 with similar upgrades as the upgraded Model 3.[16]
