The Specs

About the Tesla Model Y RWD (Juniper)

  • Battery

    60 kWh

    Usable battery capacity. The number that matters for charging-time maths.

  • DC Peak

    175 kW

    Pairs perfectly with a typical 150 kW motorway rapid.

  • AC Max

    11 kW

    Standard 11 kW three-phase. Most home wallboxes will charge at full pace.

  • Range gain (estimate)

    ≈ 147 mi

    Rough miles added by a 10–80% fast-charging session (assuming ~3.5 mi/kWh).

How we calculate

The formula, in the open

Charging time is energy needed divided by effective power. We model the typical, warm, healthy case so the number is honest, not optimistic. Read the full methodology for the curve assumptions and sources.

Common Questions

Tesla Model Y — frequently asked

How long does it take to charge a Tesla Model Y RWD (Juniper)?

From 10% to 80% in approximately 24 minutes on a 150 kW DC fast charger. From empty to full in around 9h 01m on a 7.4 kW home wallbox. Times above are for a warm, healthy battery — cold packs and busy charger sites can extend them by 10–20%.

What is the Tesla Model Y’s maximum charging speed?

The Tesla Model Y RWD (Juniper) accepts up to 175 kW on a DC fast charger and up to 11 kW on AC. Power tapers above 80% state of charge to protect the battery cells.

Can the Tesla Model Y use a 350 kW ultra-rapid charger?

It will work but the car only draws up to 175 kW. A 175 kW or 150 kW charger gives the same speed at lower cost.

How long to charge a Tesla Model Y at home?

On a typical 7.4 kW home wallbox the Tesla Model Y fills from empty in around 9h 01m. Plug in overnight and the charge time stops mattering.

Is it bad to charge the Tesla Model Y to 100%?

For day-to-day driving most manufacturers recommend an 80% ceiling on lithium-ion (NCM/NCA) chemistries, and 100% on LFP. Charge to 100% before a long trip and use the full range that day.
