In a real-world range test, the 2025 Model Y Long Range returned a fairly impressive 252 miles compared to its EPA-rated range of 311 miles. This is up from the 2023 Model Y Long Range’s 229 miles of real-world range and EPA-rated range of 330 miles.

Tesla has revealed a stretched, six-seat variation of its popular Model Y mid-size electric SUV —but there’s a big catch.
