The Tesla Model Y is a battery electric mid-size crossover SUV 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.^[5] Production at Giga Shanghai, China was added in December 2020, and at Giga Texas, US since late 2021.^[1]^[6] Deliveries from Giga Berlin, Germany started in March 2022.^[7]

The Model Y is based on the Model 3 sedan, with around 76 percent of parts being shared between the two.^[8]^[9] 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.^[10]^[11]

In 2023, Tesla delivered 1.2 million Model Ys, making it the world's best-selling vehicle that year, surpassing Toyota Corolla and becoming the first electric vehicle to claim that title.^[12] 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.^[13]
