For most Irish drivers the RWD is the better value choice — its real-world range handles every Irish route comfortably. The Long Range AWD is worth the extra cost if you regularly drive Dublin–Cork return in a single day, want AWD for winter driving confidence, or want faster Supercharger speeds (250kW vs 170kW on the RWD). The AWD also qualifies for the €3,500 SEAI grant but not VRT relief — so the price gap after grants is around €11,500.
The Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD supports up to 250kW DC and 11kW AC charging. At a 7.4kW home wallbox, a full charge takes approximately 12 hours. At a 50kW ESB ecars rapid charger, 10–80% takes around 69 minutes. At the maximum 250kW DC rate, 10–80% takes approximately 14 minutes.
The Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD uses the Tesla Supercharger network natively, plus CCS for ESB ecars and Ionity rapid chargers.
Motor tax for the Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD is €120 per year — the lowest available band in Ireland (A1, 0g/km CO₂). All battery electric vehicles registered as private cars qualify for this rate, compared to €280–€700+/year for an equivalent petrol or diesel car.
