Frequently Asked Questions

How powerful is it? How fast does it accelerate?

The Tesla Model Y Performance (2020-…) can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.7 seconds (ranked №60 out of 693 electric vehicles) and reach a top speed of 250 km/h.

The car’s powertrain delivers up to 393 kW (527 hp) of power and 660 Nm of torque.

How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range?

Real-world range of the Tesla Model Y Performance (2020-…) is 416–508 km (ranked №192 out of 693 electric vehicles) — depending on several factors, including:

Speed: Higher speeds deplete the battery faster.
Temperature: Extreme cold and hot weather impacts range.
Terrain: Hilly or mountainous terrain reduces range.
Driving style: Aggressive driving with frequent acceleration and braking consumes more energy.
Use of features: Features like climate control and media system also affect range.

It's important to remember that these are just estimates, and your actual range may vary. It's always best to factor in these various factors when planning your trip and be prepared for potential charging stops.

Plan your trips using the EV Navigation interactive map.

What charging options are available? How long does it take to charge it?

The Tesla Model Y Performance (2020-…) in Europe comes with a CCS Type 2 (Tesla) charging port. It can be charged at home using a standard domestic socket or at any public AC charging station with the compatible cable. It's important to note that the car's on-board charger (inverter) limits the maximum AC charging rate to 11 kW, resulting in approximately 61 km of range added per hour of charging.

For significantly faster charging, public DC fast-charging stations are available. Although the car can achieve a maximum DC charging rate of 250 kW, factors such as battery temperature and charge level may affect the actual charging speed.
