The Model Y L range update just pushed range to 332 miles on 19-inch wheels and 328 miles on 20-inch wheels.
This improvement from the prior 325 and 320 mile estimates shows real-world testing is complete. The Model Y L now edges ahead of the standard Model Y in efficiency.
Faster Model Y L supercharging speed
Alongside the range bump comes better Model Y L supercharging speed. A 15-minute session now adds 172 miles of range instead of 164. Owners waiting on delivery get an even stronger vehicle than they ordered.

Leasing remains unavailable
The one downside is that leasing is still not offered on the Model Y L. Many buyers prefer leasing for the flexibility around hardware updates and future robotaxi features, so this could push some to cancel.
For those financing instead, credit unions currently offer the lowest rates. Check the latest Model Y L range update details here: https://denniscw.com/blog/model-y-l-range-update-new-stats
