Tesla has reinstated the seven-seat configuration for the refreshed Model Y in Germany, limiting the option to a single drivetrain variant following its removal after last year’s Juniper facelift.
The third row is now available exclusively for the Model Y Premium Long Range with all-wheel drive. The two additional forward-facing seats cost €2,500, bringing the base price from €52,990 for the five-seat version to €55,490 for the seven-seat configuration. A €980 processing fee applies. According to Tesla’s online configurator, deliveries of the seven-seat version are scheduled between April and May 2026, in line with the estimated timeframe for the equivalent five-seat model.
Although the prices cited apply to the German market, the option is also available in other European countries supplied by Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg in Grünheide. A review of Tesla’s configurators in France, Spain and the Netherlands indicates that the third-row option for the all-wheel-drive Model Y is likewise priced at €2,500.
Tesla had previously offered a seven-seat configuration for the pre-facelift “Legacy” Model Y in October 2024. That version was discontinued following the launch of the Juniper update in early 2025, resulting in a temporary withdrawal of the option. As before, the additional seating remains limited to the all-wheel-drive Long Range variant, now marketed as Premium. The earlier iteration of the AWD model had been priced at €57,490.
Tesla has not provided detailed reasoning for restricting the seven-seat layout to the Premium AWD variant. The option is not available for rear-wheel-drive versions or the Performance model. Technically, the seven-seat layout represents an interior configuration only, with no changes to the exterior bodywork.
With all seats in place, Tesla states that 381 litres of luggage space remain behind the third row, which it says accommodates two standard carry-on suitcases. Folding the third-row seats increases cargo capacity to 894 litres, comparable to the five-seat version. Independent measurements in previous tests have suggested that Tesla’s cargo figures may differ from real-world results, though the Model Y is generally regarded as offering competitive storage space within the mid-size SUV segment.
Aside from the additional seating, the seven-seat model mirrors the standard Premium specification. Features include a 16-inch central touchscreen, heated and ventilated front seats, and an eight-inch display for second-row passengers.
Tesla lists a WLTP range of up to 600 kilometres for the all-wheel-drive variant equipped with 19-inch Crossflow wheels. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h is quoted at 4.8 seconds.
