If anyone thought the $39,990 of the Tesla Model Y Standard They were going to translate into a car worth around 35,000 euros in Spain, their hopes have just been cut short. Tesla has confirmed that the new access version of its car will arrive for a price of 39,990 euros.
All in all, this shortened version of what we had until now promises to boost sales that continue to lead in our country. And it is that in the price/size ratiostill has no major rivals. Right now, the closest thing is the Leapmotor C10 which, with 4.74 meters long and a 69.9 kWh battery, sells for just over 35,000 euros. The rest of the rivals are smaller and mostly have worse features.
Of course, the Tesla Model Y approves 534 kilometers of autonomy for the 430 kilometers that the Chinese model promises. And the thing is that the Tesla car barely reflects a consumption of 13.3 kWh/100 km in its battery. A very low figure that makes it the market leader in terms of autonomy-price ratio.
And what do you give up? With the Tesla Model Y Standard the customer also receives a somewhat trimmed car. Buyers say goodbye to the rear screen, the panoramic roof and the seats are cloth. Aesthetically, the front light line disappears and is replaced by two fine optics.
Of course, the customer maintains the 15.4-inch screen and the most basic driving assistance systems, as well as wireless updates.
A new impulse
In our country, Tesla continues to lead electric car sales but the Tesla Model Y has been eating up ground. So far this year, the company has placed 7,667 units of the Tesla Model 3 and 4,586 units of the Tesla Model Y on the market.
However, the Kia EV3 has managed to step on the heels of the Tesla car with 4,211 registrations that stand up to it when until now it was almost a chimera to assault the first two positions. Besides, Toyota has updated the bZ4X and with a aggressive campaign with taxi drivers (it was approved a few months ago in Madrid and Barcelona) is managing to make many customers jump into electric cars. Its 2,493 registrations place it as the fifth best-selling electric car.
The Tesla Model Y Standard should be a boost to sales of the company. The car is a very tempting option as a fleet car, from taxis to companies. In fact, this is where it has a lot to gain at the European level since in Germany or Belgium they were growing this technology right through that channel.
Why does an electric car have less autonomy than advertised?
As for the range readjustment, With the arrival of the Tesla Model Y Standard, Tesla is also making its top models more expensive. The rear-wheel drive Standard Range disappears and the jump from the base model implies going to 49,990 euros with the Premium model. Options with all-wheel drive now cost 52,990 euros (Premium with all-wheel drive) and 61,990 euros (Performance).
Obviously, all these prices are applied the MOVES III Plan as long as aid remains available or funds are increased.
