Overview

• The stretched variant measures roughly 4.98 meters with a 3.04‑meter wheelbase and adds a third row for six seats.
• Regulatory filings cite an 82 kWh LG Energy Solution battery and dual motors with a stated 751 km CLTC range, which typically tests higher than WLTP.
• Tesla opened preorders on its Chinese website following a Weibo teaser that confirmed the model for the local market.
• Production is scheduled to ramp this autumn at Gigafactory Shanghai with initial sales limited to China.
• The model targets domestic large SUVs such as Li Auto’s L8, Aito’s M8, BYD Tang and NIO EL8 as Tesla works to regain momentum after a 12% year‑over‑year China sales decline in Q2.
