Tesla's new 6-seater Model YL, equipped with an advanced battery, is ready for sale in China.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has officially certified the vehicle and released its details. Although listed as 82 kWh in China, the vehicle, powered by a new LG-manufactured battery with nearly 85 kWh capacity, offers a range of 751 km according to Chinese standards.
The three-row Tesla Model Y, with a 3,040 mm wheelbase, is seen as Tesla's move to enter China's rapidly growing 6/7-seater SUV market.
The 'YL,' built on the same platform as the current Model Y, will be nearly five meters long. In the coming months, Tesla is expected to launch at least three new vehicles: first the Model Y Performance and Model YL, followed by an affordable model for customers.
