Tesla has opened order books for the Model Y L Premium across the UAE.

Pricing:

Deliveries are expected to begin in November 2026, making it Tesla's newest family-focused EV offering for the region.

What's Different From the Standard Model Y

Dimensions & Space

Compared with the standard Model Y, the new Model Y L features a significantly larger footprint.

• Wheelbase increased by 150 mm
• Overall length extended by 179 mm
• Total vehicle length reaches 4,976 mm

The extra dimensions create noticeably more passenger room while accommodating an entirely new third row.

Roof & Visibility Upgrades

Tesla has also redesigned the roof structure to improve comfort.

Key improvements include:

• 70 mm additional second-row headroom
• 20 mm more rear shoulder room
• Larger rear doors for easier entry
• Bigger rear quarter windows to improve visibility for third-row occupants
• Six-Seat Interior & Comfort Features

Front Row

The front seats receive several premium upgrades, including:

• Heated and ventilated seats
• Adjustable headrests
• Thigh cushion extenders
• 16-inch touchscreen (2560 × 1600 resolution)
• 50W wireless fast charging with active cooling

Second Row

The highlight of the cabin is the pair of luxury captain's chairs.

Features include:

• Heating and ventilation
• Eight-way power adjustment
• Powered armrests
• One-touch folding
• Up to 125° reclining
• Dedicated 8-inch touchscreen for climate and entertainment controls

Third Row

Passengers in the rear also benefit from premium features.

These include:

• Power reclining seats
• One-touch folding
• Independent climate controls
• USB charging ports

Performance, Range & Cargo Capacity

Despite its larger size, the Tesla Model Y L UAE remains impressively quick.

Performance specifications include:

• Dual-motor all-wheel drive
• 0–100 km/h in 5.0 seconds
• Top speed: 201 km/h
• WLTP driving range: Up to 681 km

Cargo flexibility is another highlight.

Tesla claims the SUV offers up to 2,539 litres of cargo capacity. Even with all six seats occupied, there is room for two large suitcases and one cabin bag. Folding the third row creates space for as many as six large suitcases, making it suitable for family road trips and airport transfers.

Safety & Technology

The new Model Y L comes equipped with Tesla's latest safety hardware.

Key features include:

• Side curtain airbags for first and second rows
• Dedicated airbags protecting third-row passengers
• Full Self-Driving (FSD) hardware installed as standard
• FSD software remains an optional paid upgrade
• 19-speaker premium audio system
• Acoustic glass for improved cabin refinement
• 19-inch Machina 2.0 alloy wheels

How It Compares

The Tesla Model Y L Premium sits above the existing Model Y lineup in the UAE.

Current pricing comparison:

• Model Y Premium RWD: AED 174,990
• Model Y Long Range AWD: AED 204,990
• Model Y L Premium: AED 224,990

That makes the new six-seat variant approximately AED 50,000 more expensive than the Premium RWD and around AED 20,000 above the Long Range AWD. Buyers considering a larger electric family SUV may find the additional seating and upgraded interior worth the premium, while it also positions itself above the Model 3 in practicality.

Charging & Ownership

Owners of the Tesla Model Y L Premium will have access to Tesla's expanding UAE Supercharger network, which now includes more than 220 charging locations across the country.

However, buyers should note that this new variant is not eligible for Tesla's current complimentary Supercharging promotions.

The Model Y L has also debuted in the United States and China, highlighting Tesla's global strategy to boost demand with a more family-oriented three-row electric SUV.
