Overview
Tesla Model Y Premium AWD 2026 overview
Official EPA range is 327 mi, with 79 kWh usable battery, DC up to 250 kW (NACS) and typical 10-80% stops near 25 min (est.). Tesla Model Y Premium AWD 2026 is an electric SUV with AWD and 5 seats.
A 10-minute DC top-up (est.) adds 172 miles. Combined efficiency is 123 MPGe, or about 27.5 kWh/100 mi.
Well-suited to long-distance touring with minimal downtime at chargers. Battery preconditioning supports navigation-based routing.
Real Range
| City - Mild Weather | 336 miles |
| City - Cold Weather | 235 miles |
| Highway - Mild Weather | 271 miles |
| Highway - Cold Weather | 217 miles |
Estimates of actual range. The values given here are BEVDB estimates calculated from EPA data and usable battery capacity, based on the BEVDB model. The BEVDB real-range card uses four fixed reference scenarios: City (Mild), Highway (Mild), City (Cold), and Highway (Cold). Mild means +20°C (70°F) without intensive climate-control use; cold means -10°C (14°F) with cabin heating. City speed is 50 km/h (30 mph), and highway speed is 110 km/h (70 mph). These figures are not official test results. Actual range will vary depending on speed, temperature, road conditions, road profile, load, tires, and driving style.

Fast-charging times may use BEVDB estimates when measured 10–80% data is unavailable. Lower-power charger scenarios are estimated from the vehicle's 10–80% charging profile.
Estimated charging times are based on usable battery capacity, charging power and vehicle charging limits. Peak DC power is usually reached only briefly; average 10–80% power is more useful for estimating real charging time. Actual charging speed can vary by charger output, battery temperature, state of charge, weather, software and battery condition.

Energy Consumption
BEVDB model
| Combined real range (estimate) | 280.2 miles |
| Combined Energy Use (estimate) | 28 kWh/100 mi |
BEVDB estimates use EPA-rated (or derived) consumption and usable battery capacity to model city/highway ranges; the combined value is a weighted mix of city/highway and mild/cold scenarios. See the methodology and data sources for inputs, official source boundaries, fallback rules, and versioning.
