"Tesla's six-seat, extended-wheelbase Model Y L has been approved for sale in Australia, as per newly published government documents. The variant, listed as YL5NDB on the Australian government's ROVER approval website, has confirmed that Tesla has received regulatory clearance to offer the extended Model Y to domestic customers. Documents seen by Drive show that the Model Y L has been approved in Australia in a single dual-motor, all-wheel-drive configuration."
"The Model Y L is a longer version of the regular Model Y, designed to accommodate a six-seat layout with two seats in each row. It measures 177mm longer overall than the regular Model Y, at 4969mm, and features a 150mm longer wheelbase at 3040mm. Australian approval documents list the Model Y L with the same nickel-manganese-cobalt battery pack used in the regular Model Y Long Range, which is expected to have a gross capacity of about 84kWh and a usable capacity of about 82kWh."
"The Model Y L replaces the regular Model Y's second-row bench with two captain's chairs featuring heating, ventilation, and power adjustment. Heated third-row seats are also included. Additional upgrades reported by Drive include an 18-speaker sound system, new front seats with single-piece backrests, and continuously variable shock absorbers. The only wheel option listed for the Australian model is 19-inch wheels."
