The Model Y L launched in China last month and has attracted strong consumer interest, recording 120,000 orders and nearly 10,000 new orders per day. The first deliveries began arriving to the initial buyers in the past two days. The larger Model Y L targets families and buyers needing more interior space, with flexible rear seats cited as a key selling point despite a higher price. China remains the world’s largest and most competitive electric vehicle market, and the Model Y L’s sales momentum could materially improve Tesla China's third-quarter performance. Tesla also adjusted its Robotaxi safety monitor strategy in Austin after expanding the service area.
"(The Model Y L) is selling very well. Since its launch, 120,000 orders have been received, with nearly 10,000 orders placed every day. The first batch of customers began receiving deliveries in the past two days," the Tesla representative noted.
China is the world's largest electric vehicle market, and it is also the most unforgiving and competitive. While the standard Model Y consistently performed well in the premium crossover SUV segment, it was high time for Tesla China to offer a larger vehicle for domestic consumers. There are quite a lot of customers, after all, who need more space than what the standard Model Y could offer.
The Model Y L's spacious interior seems to be well appreciated by consumers, with the Tesla Beijing salesperson noting that the vehicle's excellent rear seats have been a notable selling point. "Although the Model YL is a bit more expensive, it has more space and a more flexible rear seat, making it perfect for families with children," the representative added.
