Tesla Unveils Model Y Performance in Europe and Middle East

The performance variant returns following the Juniper refresh that sidelined it.

Overview

  • Orders have opened in Europe and the Middle East with deliveries due to begin as soon as next month, according to regional listings.
  • The new grade features dual‑motor all‑wheel drive with a quoted 0–100 km/h time of 3.5 seconds, a 250 km/h top speed, and an indicated 461 kW output paired to an approximately 82 kWh battery with a 580 km WLTP range.
  • Chassis upgrades include adaptive suspension, larger performance brakes with red calipers, new 21‑inch Arachnid 2.0 wheels with aero inserts, wider rear tires, and new Stability Assist profiles.
  • Exterior and cabin changes bring a unique front and rear bumper design, a black rear lip spoiler, black mirror caps, a larger 16‑inch center display, sport seats with power‑extendable thigh support, carbon‑fiber‑look trim, and Ludicrous headrest logos.
  • UK pricing starts at £61,990, with availability for other regions yet to be detailed after a regional teaser and Nürburgring test sightings signaled the relaunch.
