Model Y Performance
quick acceleration and an
elevated top speed without
sacrificing efficiency.
An upgraded battery pack
equipped with new cells
offering higher energy
density without adding
weight. New Model Y
Performance delivers
460HP, accelerates from
0–60 mph in 3.3 seconds
and reaches a top speed
of 155 mph. It achieves
a consumption of 26.07 kWh/100 mi,
unlocking 360 miles WLTP of range, making
it one of the most efficient performance EVs
available on the road today.
Also borrowed from Model 3 Performance is
proprietary adaptive suspension technology.
Designed in-house by engineering and
software teams, tailored specifically for

Powertrain and Chassis Designed for
Maximum Performance
Launched in 2024 with Model 3
Performance, the latest Performance drive
unit—the Performance 4DU—delivers 16%
more peak torque, 32% more peak power
and 22% more continuous power. Capable
of higher thermal and performance limits
than previous generations, it gives new
control algorithm delivers a balanced ride
and handling character optimised for all
driving scenarios. The next-generation
ride controller has been engineered to
deliver a smoother, more refined ride while
enhancing handling. The teams pushed
industry standards to create an adaptive
suspension system that adjusts in realtime to driver and road inputs, expanding
the vehicle’s performance envelope and
capability.
All-new 21" Arachnid 2.0 Wheels, paired
with new staggered tyres, work with the
adaptive suspension to provide drivers with
smooth, precise control and a responsive
driving experience. The tyres not only
enhance handling but also deliver a more
comfortable, quieter ride with improved
range. Full dynamic potential is unlocked
with upgraded knuckles and refined
kinematics.
