Tesla Opens Orders For Its Biggest Model Y, With Lower Than Expected Price And V2L

Tesla has opened orders for its long‑wheelbase Model Y L, adding more cabin space, extended range, and new V2L power‑out capability. Built at Giga Shanghai, the model launches in China and Asia‑Pacific markets, including Australia, but not in the U.S. The variant reflects Tesla's regional strategy, with no plans to offer this larger V2L‑equipped Model Y to American buyers.
