At the time of this July 2025 report, the plans concerned the Chinese market. Whether either development would reach Europe remained an open question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is a closer look at the changes described at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A new six-seat Model YL<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"4160\" src=\"https:\/\/teslhub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/4-1024x576.png\" alt=\"Model YL\" class=\"wp-image-4160\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"4161\" src=\"https:\/\/teslhub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/5-1024x576.png\" alt=\"Model YL\" class=\"wp-image-4161\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-id=\"4159\" src=\"https:\/\/teslhub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/6-1024x576.png\" alt=\"Model YL\" class=\"wp-image-4159\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Model YL<\/strong> is a <strong>long-wheelbase<\/strong> version, increasing the distance between the front and rear axles and providing a <strong>six-seat cabin<\/strong> aimed at families wanting more room. Its dimensions place it <strong>between the existing Model Y and the Model X<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The main details reported were:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>A longer wheelbase<\/strong> of 3,040 mm and overall length of 4,976 mm.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A six-seat layout<\/strong> with two individual second-row seats and a more spacious, usable third row.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dual Motor AWD<\/strong>, with quoted 0\u2013100 km\/h acceleration of 5.9 seconds and a top speed of 217 km\/h.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A reported 82.5 kWh LFP battery<\/strong> and quoted <strong>CLTC range of 688 km<\/strong>. These were the specifications cited in the original report, not a fresh technical verification.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A new rear spoiler, different wheels, dedicated <em>Model YL<\/em> badging<\/strong> and a new <strong>light-gold paint finish<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Chinese arrival was expected in autumn 2025<\/strong>. A European launch had not been confirmed at publication, although the format could also appeal to buyers in Western markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A new Model 3+ with improved range<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"4162\" src=\"https:\/\/teslhub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/7-1024x576.png\" alt=\"Model 3+\" class=\"wp-image-4162\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"4163\" src=\"https:\/\/teslhub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/8-1024x576.png\" alt=\"Model 3+\" class=\"wp-image-4163\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tesla had also applied for Chinese <strong>approval of another Model 3 version<\/strong>, referred to as the <strong>Model 3+<\/strong>. The report described a <strong>single rear motor combined with an LG NMC battery<\/strong>, rather than the battery arrangement of the entry-level rear-wheel-drive version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The reported changes:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>A single rear motor<\/strong>, as in the base Model 3 RWD, but with a <strong>ternary NMC battery rather than LFP<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Range expected to exceed that of the Long Range AWD<\/strong>, helped by the single-motor configuration\u2019s lower energy demand.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Early reports suggested it <strong>might use the same 78.4 kWh battery as the Long Range<\/strong>, potentially making it a particularly efficient Model 3 variant. This was speculation at publication, rather than a confirmed specification.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The estimated price was <strong>270,000 yuan<\/strong>, approximately US$37,600 at the conversion used in the article, placing it between the base RWD and Long Range versions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A Chinese launch was expected in early September 2025<\/strong>. No export plans for other markets had been announced at publication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Two approaches to a changing market<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tesla continues to differentiate its range for regional needs. In China, where cabin space and range are important buying considerations, <strong>these two variants reflected those priorities<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The question for European readers was straightforward: <strong>would they reach our market too?<\/strong> There was no official confirmation at the time. Tesla has sometimes introduced developments in China before expanding availability elsewhere, but that pattern alone does not establish an export plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-5d2qs1529\">\ud83d\udcb6 REFERRAL PROGRAM <strong>\ud83d\ude98<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-ipsth1016\"><strong>Explore the referral benefits available when buying a new Tesla.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-nh6ps1021\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Use the following referral link<\/strong> and follow Tesla\u2019s normal ordering process.
