In June, Tesla released the first teaser image of its future Model Y crossover EV.
American roadways are filling up with crossover SUVs—the ultra-popular vehicle segment that combines the compelling features of a car, SUV, and wagon. The dramatic rise of the crossover begs this question: When will EV buyers be able to buy one powered by electrons?
Perhaps that day is coming faster, based on the recent first sales of the Model 3, the stylish, affordable long-range car from Tesla. That’s because the Tesla Model Y—the company’s planned crossover—will share many of the Model 3’s components. It’s not clear yet if the two vehicles will be built on the same platform.
Tesla will have significant competition in the race towards a long-range relatively affordable crossover EV. There are at least three other companies with aspirations for a pure electric crossover that sells for around $40,000 vehicle and offers around 250 miles of driving range on a single charge.
