Tesla Model Y: what to know
The 2025 Tesla Model Y is a 5-seat compact SUV with an EPA range of 326 mi from a 75 kWh battery, starting at $44,990 MSRP.
On a DC fast charger it peaks at 250 kW and completes 10–80% in roughly 27 minutes — competitive for everyday use and reasonable on longer trips.
It uses 28 kWh per 100 miles, so at the US-average home rate of $0.16/kWh it costs about 4.5¢ per mile to fuel — roughly $582 a year at 13,000 miles.
Tesla Model Y Towing Capacity
- Max towing capacity
- 3,500 lb
- Tow package
- Optional tow / trailer package
The 2025 Tesla Model Y is rated to tow up to 3,500 lb — enough for a small camper or popup, a single-axle utility trailer, or a couple of jet skis. The max rating requires the manufacturer's optional tow / trailer package, so check the build sheet before assuming you can hitch up.
Independent towing-range data for the Tesla Model Y is limited; as a general rule, EVs in this weight class lose 30–50% of unloaded range while towing near their max rating, so plan DC-fast-charge stops more often than usual on long hauls.
Towing capacity from the manufacturer. Range-loss figures marked “est.” are estimates based on corroborated third-party road tests at or near max tow; real-world results vary with trailer aero, grade, speed, and weather.
