Tesla Korea will officially launch its new Model Y in Korea on April 2. The New Model Y, which will be introduced this time, is a partial change model of the Model Y, which sold more than 3.5 million units worldwide and became the first electric vehicle to rank No. 1 in global car sales for two consecutive years.

Model Y, which has been selected by consumers for a long time in Korea, has significantly improved future-oriented internal and external design, quietness, and various conveniences through this part change. It is characterized by still being released at a reasonable price without a large price increase due to improved marketability.


In Korea, it comes in a total of three trims including rear-wheel-drive RWD, four-wheel-drive Long Range, and Tesla's first limited edition Launch Series. In particular, the Launch Series is a limited edition model designed to commemorate the partial change in Model Y.





Strong performance and dedicated details that apply only to the Launch Series add value to the collection. When you get on the vehicle, a dedicated welcome animation is played on the center display, delivering a sense of speed and immersion to the passengers.


New Model Y provides a maximum driving distance of 476 km and a total cost of 5.4 km/kWh based on the Long Range and Launch Series trim based on domestic certification.


The RWD model has a maximum driving distance of 400 km and a total cost of 5.6 km/kWh, drawing attention as an option with both practicality and economy. The smooth ride and stable handling performance satisfy the SUV's unique versatility and Tesla's agile driving sense at the same time.





The exterior design was boldly reinterpreted, inspired by Tesla's futuristic design symbols Cybertruck and Cybercab. The new front part features a cross light bar designed to make the vehicle body look wide and effectively distribute impact in case of a collision.


In the rear part, the world's first integrated indirect reflection tail lamp is introduced to create a unique visual effect, and lighting is projected on dark roads to create a dynamic atmosphere like a rocket's afterburner.


The interior has a variety of high-end specifications preferred by domestic consumers. A new ambient light is installed to create a comfortable atmosphere with wrap-around lighting surrounding passengers, and premium materials and first-row ventilation seats provide a comfortable driving environment.





In particular, the Launch Series has dedicated wordmarks applied to various parts of the room, such as door rooms and consoles, and when the door is opened, the exclusive puddle lamp of the Launch Series is turned on to provide a special experience to the owner.


Column 2 of

provides an improved seating experience through a wider seat and headrest along with an electric folding function. The newly added 8-inch rear display allows passengers in the back seat to watch videos or enjoy personal entertainment through Bluetooth headsets.


This provides a vehicle experience that respects each space, and creates an environment where drivers can focus more on driving.


The domestic sales price of the New Model Y is set at ▲RWD 52.99 million won ▲ Long Range 63.14 million won ▲ Launch Series 73 million won, and official orders will be available from April 2. The Launch Series real cars will be displayed at Tesla stores (Gangnam, Yeouido, Hanam, Bundang, Daegu, and Busan) nationwide except Jeju Island from March 29, allowing consultation through Tesla advisors.


The limited edition Launch Series will start delivering customers in April, and the RWD and Long Range general trim will be delivered sequentially from May.
