DC charging time

Indicative DC charging time 10→80%, derived from battery capacity and charging power — not measured by us. Actual time depends on the charging curve, temperature and starting SoC.
Charging situation10→80% (min)
At model peak (250 kW) ~ 20
At a 150 kW charger ~ 34
At a 50 kW charger ~ 102
How is this calculated? We assume around 70% of the battery sits in the 10→80% window and an average power around 62% of peak (the curve tapers towards the end). At a fixed charger the power is capped to that charger. An estimate, not a manufacturer figure.

In depth

Strong points are the charging speed (up to 250 kW) and the large luggage volume (854 l incl. underfloor bin and front boot). WLTP 533 km with the 75 kWh pack; owners report 15-25% less range in winter (public forums, not measured by us). Braked towing weight 1,600 kg (manufacturer figure).

About the Tesla Model Y Long Range (2024)

Independent spec and rating reference. No offers, no sales.

The Model Y shares much of its technology with the Model 3 but sits higher and offers more luggage space: 854 l in total, including the underfloor bin and the front boot (manufacturer figure). The Long Range version has a 75 kWh pack (usable) and achieves WLTP 533 km. Charging is on the Tesla Supercharger network and on CCS chargers up to 250 kW; 10-80% takes about 27 minutes under favourable conditions (manufacturer figure, not measured by us).

In practice

WLTP fuel use is 15.7 kWh/100km (manufacturer figure). Over a full year, including winter drives, owners report mixed around 18.5 kWh/100km (owner forums, n≈28, not measured by us); that pushes the real range below the 533 km WLTP. The indicative list price hovered around 46,000 to 47,000 euro and now stands at 46,990 euro; Tesla adjusts prices mid-cycle more often than most brands. It is a starting price, not an offer and not a forecast.

Points to note

Winter fuel use is 15-25% above WLTP according to owners. The fully screen-controlled operation is a matter of taste; there is no instrument display behind the wheel. The firmer chassis compared to the Model 3 and wind noise at higher speed are recurring points in owner reports. Take a test drive at the official Tesla location.
