Tesla has launched a new version of the Model Y for Europe, a Long Range version that’s only rear-wheel drive.
The company said on Thursday this variant has “Maximum range that allows you to commute all week without charging—at an even more accessible price.”
You get 600 km range based on the WLPT testing standard on 19” Gemini Wheels, while the top speed is at 217 km/h. Tesla says this Model Y has the “Lowest cost per kilometer in the electric SUV market” at 14.9 kWh/100 km.
This new Model Y variant is now available in Austria, Czechia, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Spain, Portugal, Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Italy, Greece, Poland, Slovenia, Romania & Hungary.
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen Tesla offer a Long Range variant of one of their cars that’s only rear-wheel drive. One year ago, Tesla offered the Model 3 Long Range RWD in the UK for business-to-business customers.
