Introducing Model Y Performance in Saudi Arabia

17 Aug 2026
  • What Makes the New Tesla Model Y Performance Stand Out?

Tesla today introduces Model Y Performance in Saudi Arabia — expanding the available Model Y line up to four available trims in Saudi Arabia.

Model Y Performance takes refinement to the next level. Whether it's an inner-city trip between Riyadh-Dammam, an exhilarating drive on winding roads, an evening out with the family, or transporting bulky items after a shopping trip — it handles it all with ease.

At Tesla, performance is not a synonym for compromise — Tesla’s performance vehicles deliver first-class speed and handling, while still offering everyday comfort and efficiency. Each comes with an upgraded package, designed for those seeking the best in class.

With the launch of the new Model Y Performance, Tesla is introducing a distinctly upgraded version of its most popular vehicle.

In addition to the features that come standard on all Model Y Premium vehicles — such as a panoramic glass roof with acoustic glass throughout the cabin, an 8” rear touchscreen, power-reclining second-row seats, advanced driver assistance features, over-the-air software updates, and more — the new Model Y Performance includes:

Specific front fascia, upgraded for high-speed performance

Specific rear fascia, upgraded for high-speed performance

21" Arachnid 2.0 staggered forged wheels with aero covers for improved efficiency

Performance Red brake calipers

Performance liftgate badge

Performance puddle lamps

Glossy black finishes on the front fascia, rear fascia, and mirror caps

Carbon fiber spoiler, for enhanced high-speed stability

Handcrafted interior for maximum comfort

Front-row Performance seats with powered thigh extenders

Micro suede and carbon fiber décor

Aluminium pedals

16" first row touchscreen, with thin bezels and high resolution, delivering a smooth and immersive experience

Premium audio system with 16 speakers, delivering an immersive experience from every seat

All these upgrades give Model Y Performance a more distinctive and aggressive look, making it immediately recognizable on the road while staying true to Tesla’s sleek and functional signature design.

Advanced driver assistance features — as with all Tesla vehicles, Model Y Performance comes equipped with advanced driver assistance features, including Autosteer, Traffic-Aware Cruise Control and automatic emergency braking, while also being hardware ready to support Full Self-Driving (Supervised) technology*.

Maximum Performance, Adrenaline and Efficiency

The new Model Y Performance delivers 460HP, accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds, and reaches a top speed of 250 km/h. Thanks to Tesla’s highly efficient signature design—where all components work seamlessly together — the vehicle achieves a consumption of 16.2 kWh/100 km, unlocking a range of 580 km WLTP, making it one of the most efficient performance EVs available on the road today.

An upgraded battery pack, equipped with new cells offering higher energy density, provides more energy without adding weight. Its state-of-the-art performance drive unit delivers more torque, power, and improved efficiency. Capable of higher thermal and performance limits than previous generations, it gives the new Model Y Performance quick acceleration and an elevated top speed without sacrificing energy efficiency.

The new Model Y Performance benefits from upgraded chassis hardware that matches the increased performance of the powertrain. New springs, stabilizer bars, and bushings result in a chassis that feels more intuitive and responsive. The new adaptive suspension system, designed in-house by Tesla takes advantage of an all-new control algorithm delivering a balanced ride and handling character optimized for all driving scenarios, adjusting in real-time to driver and road inputs, expanding the vehicle’s performance envelope and capability.

Benefiting from Tesla’s expertise in seamlessly integrating hardware and software, the new Model Y Performance introduces customizable drive modes that influence the adaptive suspension, stability assist, traction, and vehicle dynamics controls. This creates greater freedom and a more engaging driving experience tailored to the driver’s mood. All settings are easily accessible through the intuitive center touchscreen, allowing quick adjustments to vehicle dynamics.

Availability in Saudi Arabia

Model Y Performance is now available to order from SAR 254,990. Customer deliveries begin in April 2027.

Customers in Saudi Arabia can also order the vehicle in Tesla's newly released Marine Blue paint: a dark blue with a clean metallic effect, clear highlights, and dense undertones.

*Full Self-Driving (Supervised) is not yet available but may be in the future. Its availability depends on development and regulatory approval.
