The Model Y Standard Long Range RWD promises a significantly longer driving range while maintaining a price positioned below the EUR47,000 threshold.
In the mid-size electric SUV segment, the Model Y competes directly with models such as the Volkswagen ID.4 and the Hyundai Ioniq 5, both aimed at family use and long range, but with similar or higher prices in comparable configurations, according to ProMotor.
The new Model Y Standard Long Range offers an official WLTP range of 657 km, the longest currently available for a rear-wheel-drive version of the model. The declared average consumption is 12.7 kWh/100 km, while maximum charging power reaches 278 kW. Under ideal conditions, a 15-minute stop at a fast-charging station can provide up to 260 km of additional range, according to data released by the manufacturer.
The model benefits from access to more than 20,000 Supercharger stations across Europe, with Tesla’s proprietary network integrated directly into the vehicle’s navigation system.
The Model Y Standard Long Range RWD comes standard with Autopilot and features hardware prepared for Full Self-Driving (Supervised), a function to be activated later, subject to regulatory approvals. Over-the-air software updates remain a core feature, with Tesla promising continuous improvements at no additional cost to users.
The Tesla Model Y Standard Long Range Rear-Wheel Drive is produced at Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg, Tesla’s European plant, and is already available for order in Romania. Deliveries are scheduled to begin in February 2026.
