GarageCalc Where 4.8 s sits
At 4.8 s the Tesla Model Y Long Range is quick (4.5 to 6.0 s). 42 of the 70 vehicles in the database are quicker and 27 are slower, so it beats 39% of the field. Among EV models it ranks #15 of 15, in a category that runs from 1.9 s (Lucid Air Sapphire) to 4.8 s (Tesla Model Y Long Range), with 14 EV models ahead of it.
The dataset does not retain a source URL or rollout method for every entry. Treat the 4.8 s figure as a reference, and verify a matching model year, trim and test method before making a close comparison. To estimate quarter-mile elapsed time and trap speed from power and weight, use the quarter mile calculator; and before fitting bigger wheels, check the tire size comparison, because a larger tire diameter lengthens the effective gearing and blunts the launch.
Frequently asked questions
How fast is the Tesla Model Y Long Range 0-60?
4.8 s is the curated reference value in this database. That is #43 of 70 vehicles in our database and #15 of 15 EV models; 27 vehicles (39%) are slower. Actual results depend on test method, surface, temperature and launch; this is not a guaranteed test range.
Is the Tesla Model Y Long Range quicker than the Kia Stinger GT?
No. The Kia Stinger GT does 0-60 in 4.7 s against 4.8 s for the Tesla Model Y Long Range, a gap of 0.1 s, a small gap that should be interpreted cautiously because test conditions can differ.
Which model years does the 4.8 s figure cover?
The 2021-2026 Tesla Model Y Long Range with the Dual-motor EV powertrain. Other engines or trims of the same model can differ by a second or more, so match the powertrain before comparing.
