Tesla has halted sales of the limited-edition “Launch Series” Model Y in several European countries and introduced a standard lineup, according to its website.
Customers can now choose from three updated Model Y variants: the Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD), Long Range Rear-Wheel Drive (LR RWD), and Long Range All-Wheel Drive (LR AWD). Deliveries are set to begin between May and June, depending on the country and configuration.
In Germany, the updated Model Y pricing remains unchanged at €44,990 for the RWD variant. The Long Range RWD is now €49,990, reflecting a €1,000 increase, while the Long Range AWD has been reduced by €2,000 to €52,990.
In the UK, the RWD version is priced at £44,990 (€54,370), while the Long Range AWD starts at £51,990 (€62,820). The ‘Launch Series’ edition remains available for order on Tesla’s UK website, suggesting the company has yet to sell out all right-hand-drive units.
Tesla continues to offer the Launch Series in other markets, with deliveries of the $59,990 variant expected to begin in the United States next month. The limited-edition model, based on the Long Range AWD version, includes approximately $17,000 in extras, according to Tesla’s website.
These features include the company’s supervised Full Self-Driving software ($8,000), Acceleration Boost ($2,000), a tow hitch ($1,000), and free customization for paint, wheels, and interior trim.
In China, the updated Model Y Launch Series is priced at 263,500 yuan ($36,400) for the base version, a 5.4% increase over its predecessor. The refreshed model offers a 3% increase in range, reaching 719 km under China’s CLTC standard for the Long Range variant.
