Tesla just dropped the Model Y L with a completely redesigned order page that buckets trims differently than before.
Tesla Website Update July
The new layout groups vehicles by drive type and positions the Model Y L as a premium trim starting at $61,990 for the launch series. Model Y still shows 0% financing while the premium version sits at 0.99%. The Model Y L, however, carries much higher Model Y L financing rates at 5.64%.
This change appeared with the Model Y L release and carried straight into the Tesla website update July.
Model Y L Order Page Breakdown
Tesla now separates rear-wheel and all-wheel drive options, then places the Model Y L premium above the standard Model Y and below the Performance variant at $57,990. The goal looks like clearer price-tier messaging: $40k base, $46k premium, then the Model Y L around the low $50k range once the launch series ends.
What This Means for Buyers
The higher financing rates on the Model Y L quickly add thousands over a five- or six-year loan. Even with the launch series perks—one year free Supercharging, FSD, connectivity, and badging—the total cost difference versus a standard Model Y can exceed $15k–$20k once interest is factored in.
If you want the extra range and features, run the numbers carefully. Many buyers will still find better value in the current 0% or 0.99% Model Y deals.

Tesla Wall Connector Price Increase
Tesla also raised the wall connector price to $535. That $100 jump caught many off guard and is now reflected on the order page.

Bottom Line
The configurator changes make the Model Y L order page cleaner but also highlight how expensive the new model becomes once financing is included. Use a Tesla referral — 3 months free FSD + low APR financing before you lock in any order.
