Home & Destination Charging (0 → 100%)
Charging is possible by using a regular wall plug or a charging station. Public charging is always done through a charging station. How fast the EV can charge depends on the charging station (EVSE) used and the maximum charging capacity of the EV. The table below shows all possible options for charging the Tesla Model Y Performance. Some modes may not be widely available in certain countries.

Fast Charging (10 → 80%)
Connector: Combined Charging System (CCS Combo 2). Rapid charging enables longer journeys by adding as much range as possible in the shortest amount of time. Charging power will decrease significantly after ~80% SoC; rapid sessions therefore rarely exceed 80%.

1-Stop Range Definition ⚡
For vehicles without fast-charging capability, only the distance of the first stop is considered.
🚗 Driving Profile
- Begin with a fully charged battery
- Stop 1: Drive until the battery reaches 10% state-of-charge (SoC)
- Perform a 15-minute fast charge
- Stop 2: Continue driving until the battery again reaches 10% SoC
📋 Assumptions
- Driving speed, climate, and environmental conditions are based on Real Range Highway data
- No additional time required to initiate or stop the charging session
- The charging station always delivers the maximum power requested by the vehicle
- The battery is assumed to be in optimal health and condition
⚠️ Important Note : In real-world driving, it is practically impossible to replicate these conditions exactly.
This benchmark should therefore be viewed as a comparative metric, designed to evaluate vehicles under standardized conditions rather than predict exact trip distances.
