The new variant stretches Tesla’s best-selling SUV. Engineers extended the wheelbase by 150 mm to reach 3,040 mm total and added roughly 180 mm to the vehicle’s overall length. Those gains create enough interior volume for an additional row of seats.
Instead of installing a cramped seven-seat bench, the automaker fitted independent captain’s chairs in the middle row.
Model Y L adopts a 2+2+2 seating layout with premium second-row features. Instead of installing a cramped seven-seat bench, the automaker fitted independent captain’s chairs in the middle row. Those seats offer heating, ventilation, powered armrests and a one-touch fold function. The rearmost row includes heated seats, power recline and child-seat anchors.
Tesla has not released further details on powertrain options or driving range for this initial series. The Launch Series represents the opening phase of the extended SUV’s availability in the targeted markets.

The Circuitry is a passion project I've always wanted to build, and I love the work behind it.

Running it costs real money. APIs, hosting, time. To keep improving the site and growing this into something useful for everyone, those costs have to be covered.

Any contribution is appreciated. If not, no pressure. Thanks for reading.

China's CXMT Doubles IPO Target to $8.55 Billion

ChangXin Memory Technologies expects to raise 57.9 billion yuan ($8.55 billion) in its Shanghai STAR Market IPO after doubling its original target. The world's fourth-largest DRAM chipmaker will list on July 27, advancing China's push for semiconductor self-reliance.

CISA Adds KNX Protocol CVE-2023-4346 to KEV Catalog

CISA added CVE-2023-4346 affecting KNX Association KNX Protocol Connection Authorization Option 1 to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2026-07-15. Federal agencies must finish remediation by 2026-07-29. The overly restrictive account lockout mechanism could let attackers purge devices and set a BCU key when extra security options remain disabled, so organizations must apply vendor mitigations under BOD 26-04.

Report: OnePlus to Pull Out of US and Europe

Bloomberg reports that OnePlus will exit the U.S. and European smartphone markets as part of restructuring at owner Oppo, with the move possibly starting as soon as this week. The brand's earlier popularity has faded while Chinese suppliers face mounting pressure from memory chip costs and declining shipments in key regions.
