Tesla’s Six-Seater Model Y Launches: Price, Comparison, Features

Since its founding in 2003, Tesla has transformed from a niche EV startup into the global face of electric innovation. Known for disrupting the auto industry with its direct sales model, over-the-air software updates, and self-driving technology, Tesla continues to redefine what a modern vehicle can be.

Among Tesla’s most successful models, the Model 3 made EVs accessible, while the Model S showcased luxury performance. The Model Y, a compact electric SUV launched in 2020, combined the agility of the Model 3 with the practicality of an SUV, and became Tesla’s global best-seller.

Now, Tesla introduces the Six-Seater Model Y, a version tailored to larger families and group travel. Featuring three rows of seats, including second-row captain’s chairs for added comfort and accessibility, this variant emphasizes space without compromising Tesla’s core values: performance, technology, and design.

• Three-row seating with easy third-row access via captain seats
  
• 330-mile estimated range (Long Range version)

How the Six-Seater Model Y Compares to Other Tesla Models

• Model 3: Smaller sedan with no third row. Less cargo space, lower starting price (~$38,990), and shorter range (~272 miles). Ideal for individuals or small families.
  
• Model Y (5-Seater): Offers the same performance and range as the six-seater but lacks the third row and family flexibility. Starts at ~$47,990.
  
• Six-Seater Model Y: The sweet spot for buyers needing space without jumping to luxury prices. Adds comfort features and seating without losing Tesla’s performance.
  
• Model X (6-Seater): Tesla’s premium SUV with falcon-wing doors, more interior tech, and higher performance, but also a significantly higher price tag starting at ~$79,990.
  

The Six-Seater Model Y fills a gap in Tesla’s lineup: more room and comfort than the base models, without the cost of a Model X, making it an ideal all-rounder for modern electric families.
