The most recent addition to the Tesla line-up is the compact crossover SUV Model Y.

It's based on the Model 3's platform and shares around 75% of the mechanical parts with its parent model.

Comparing it to the other SUV from the American electric car company you will find it smaller than the Model X.

Customers got the first delivery of their Model Y's in March 2020 which were assembled in the Nevada and California factories with more production starting in Germany soon.
