Tesla Model Y Long Range Plus May Be Released Within the Year With 800km Range

Recently, CheZhi.com learned from relevant channels that Tesla China will release the new Tesla Model Y L+ in mid-2026. As an upgraded model, it is expected to be equipped with a larger capacity battery pack, and its CLTC pure electric range will reach 800km.

Based on the model naming convention, the Tesla Model Y L+ is highly likely to be an optimized upgrade of the Tesla Model Y L. Positioned as a mid-to-large SUV, it will continue to feature a 2+2+2 six-seat interior layout. In terms of dimensions, the new vehicle measures 4,976mm in length, 1,920mm in width, and 1,668mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3,040mm.

Official data show that in 2025, Tesla produced a total of 1.6547 million electric vehicles and delivered 1.6361 million, a significant decrease compared to the 1.789 million delivered in 2024. In the fourth quarter of 2025, Tesla delivered 418,200 vehicles, a year-on-year decrease of 15.6%, which was lower than market expectations of 434,000 vehicles.

The launch of the Tesla Model Y L+ is fundamentally about creating a differentiated competitive advantage through product upgrades, further seizing a larger share of the domestic mid-to-large-size pure electric SUV market. From a policy perspective, the state will continue to retain purchase tax incentives for new energy vehicles with a range exceeding 600km in 2026, and the Tesla Model Y L+'s range of 800km precisely meets this policy requirement.
