India, Aug. 19 -- Tesla (TSLA) has unveiled the Model YL, an expanded six-seat version of its best-selling SUV, in China, priced from 339,000 yuan about $47,000.
Deliveries are scheduled to begin in September, underscoring the company's push to capture more family-oriented buyers in a highly competitive market.
The Model YL is larger than the standard Model Y Long Range AWD, stretching roughly seven inches longer and an inch taller, with a 120-inch wheelbase. The redesign provides up to 2,539 liters of cargo space, along with second-row electric armrests. Despite the increase in size, the vehicle maintains an estimated 751 km of range on China's CLTC cycle, supported by a bigger battery.
