See inside Tesla’s new $62,000 six-seater Model Y L, which has been a huge hit in China and is now on sale in the US

Tesla has given fans an early Fourth of July surprise.

The EV giant announced on Thursday that it has opened US orders for the Model Y L, a three-row version of its best-selling SUV, with prices starting at $61,990.

The premium EV has been on sale in China since last August, and a question mark has been hovering over its arrival on American shores ever since.

At the time, CEO Elon Musk said the Y L “might not ever” come to the US because driverless vehicles would soon make traditional transportation obsolete.

Musk’s ambitious predictions have yet to come to pass, however, with Tesla so far only scaling to a few dozen unsupervised robotaxis in a handful of Texan cities.

Take a look at the Model Y L, which will be available in the US starting in October.
