2026 Tesla Model Y SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2026 Tesla Model Y is a fully electric small crossover SUV. It is initially sold in the dual-motor all-wheel-drive Launch Series configuration, which is similar to last year's fully loaded Long Range All-Wheel Drive version.

Launch Series
The Launch Series is loaded with every feature Tesla offers on the Model Y offers, including:

  • Choice between 19-inch wheels (327 miles of range) and 20-inch wheels (303 miles)
  • Tesla-estimated 0-60 mph time of 4.1 seconds
  • Panoramic glass roof
  • Unique Launch Series badging
  • Heated and ventilated front seats
  • Synthetic leather upholstery
  • Streaming services (navigation and entertainment; subscription required)
  • Wireless device charger
  • Ambient interior lighting
  • 15.4-inch front touchscreen
  • 8-inch rear touchscreen

Standard advanced safety features include:

  • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the Model Y and the car in front)
  • Forward collision mitigation (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Lane keeping assistance (steers the Model Y back into its lane if it begins to drift over the lane marker)
  • Tesla Autopilot (combines adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assistance for hands-on low-level automated driving)
  • Blind-spot warning (alerts you if a vehicle in the next lane over is in your blind spot)
  • The standard Full-Self Driving (Supervised) feature adds:
    • Navigation-based hands-free steering assist (driver still has to pay attention and be ready to take control)
    • Ability to slow down and stop for traffic lights and stop signs
    • Active monitoring and avoidance of pedestrians, cyclists and other vehicles

Which Model Y trim does Edmunds recommend?

At the time of publication, there's only one version of the New Model Y available, and it's called the Launch Series. There are no stand-alone options or packages — even the typically optional so-called Full Self-Driving suite of advanced driving aids is standard. The only real choices to make are which paint and interior color combo you'd like and whether to go with 19-inch wheels (327 miles of range, per Tesla) or 20-inch wheels (303 miles).
