"The newly introduced Tesla Model Y All-Wheel Drive starts from $43,630 and has an EPA-estimated range of 294 miles on a full charge, making it the shortest-range Model Y in the lineup. Price-wise, it's $2,000 more expensive than the base rear-wheel drive model with 321 miles of range, but $3,000 less than the Model Y Premium RWD. Compared to the Premium AWD, it's $7,000 more affordable."
"As you might have noticed, this car doesn't wear the Standard moniker, and that's because Tesla quietly dropped that name for the most basic versions of the Model 3 and Model Y. However, the better-equipped and more expensive trims are still called the Premium and Performance. As a result, the cheapest Tesla Model Y and Model 3 are now simply called Rear-Wheel Drive."
"Thanks to a second electric motor powering the front wheels, the new Tesla Model Y AWD can sprint from zero to 60 miles per hour in 4.6 seconds, making it 2.2 seconds faster than the RWD version. That's despite it being roughly 200 pounds heavier. Interestingly, the total cargo capacity of the base Model Y AWD is listed as 74.8 cubic feet on Tesla's website, which is 0.8 cu ft more than the RWD version."
