Tesla has formally launched its new Mannequin Y Efficiency trim in Europe, and it is even higher than we thought it would be — however it is going to value you.
As anticipated, the performance-oriented trim appears like a barely beefed up model of the usual Mannequin Y, with a carbon fiber spoiler, 21-inch Arachnid wheels, and a barely extra aggressive entrance and rear fascia. Inside, you will discover carbon fiber particulars and sportier seats.
However it’s the precise efficiency that makes this automotive actually attention-grabbing, particularly when you think about that that is nonetheless a household SUV. It accelerates from 0-100km/h in 3.5 seconds, with a prime pace of 250km/h.
Whereas these figures are the identical as on the earlier Mannequin Y Efficiency trims (which weren’t out there after the automotive’s “Juniper” refresh in January 2025), what makes this mannequin actually attention-grabbing is the vary. The Mannequin Y Efficiency has an marketed 580km WLTP vary, which is almost the identical because the 586km you get on the Lengthy Vary All-Wheel Drive. In a approach, with the Efficiency trim you get to have your cake and eat it, too, because the earlier Efficiency model had lots much less vary than the Lengthy Vary AWD trim.

This vary enchancment, Tesla says, is because of “new high-density battery cells with elevated cost capability.”
The soundness of the trip has been improved, too, with adaptive damping that may regulate dealing with based mostly on highway situations, and staggered wheel and tire fitment which ought to present higher grip and steering. Lastly, new drive modes help you regulate traction management relying in your driving model and terrain.
Then there’s the worth. We have checked it in a number of European markets, and it is roughly 9,000 euros greater than the Lengthy Vary All-Wheel Drive variant. For instance, the Tesla MYP prices 62,970 euros in Germany, and 61,651 euros in France. It is not a small ask, however the specs are fairly nice, so we’re certain the brand new trim will discover patrons (if any patrons stay in Europe in any respect, given the plummeting sales on the continent following Musk’s political shenanigans).
