Tesla replaced the rear-wheel drive variant in its Model Y lineup with a long-range rear-wheel drive variant in May. The new variant has a range of 320 miles, much higher than the 260 miles range on the variant it replaced despite having the same starting price of $44,990.
特斯拉在5月份用長續航後驅車型替換了其Model Y系列的後輪驅動車型。新車型的續航里程爲320英里，比之前的260英里續航里程高得多，儘管起始價格相同，爲44,990美元。
As a resolution for older customers who purchased the RWD variant, Tesla CEO Elon Musk then said the older RWD vehicles built by the company over the past several months can get more range for an additional $1500 to $2000 depending on the battery cells employed. This would add 40 to 60 miles of range to the car, he said, while adding that the company is working through regulatory approvals to enable it.
作爲解決老客戶購買RWD車型的問題，特斯拉首席執行官埃隆·馬斯克隨後表示，過去幾個月內由公司製造的舊款RWD車輛可以通過額外支付1500到2000美元（取決於使用的電池單元）來獲得更多的續航里程。他說，這將爲汽車增加40至60英里的行駛里程，並表示公司正在通過監管批准來實現這一目標。
"We have to pay the bills somehow," Musk said as a reason for the extra charge.
“我們必須想辦法支付賬單，”馬斯克表示這是增收的原因。
Why It Matters: Tesla has now seemingly got the approvals. While some RWD owners can now get 30 miles of added range for $1000, others can add 50 miles for $1600, depending on the battery cells deployed in their cars.
爲什麼它重要：特斯拉現在似乎已經獲得了批准。雖然一些RWD車主現在可以花費1000美元獲得30英里的額外續航里程，但其他車主可以根據其汽車中使用的電池單元增加50英里的續航里程，價格爲1600美元。
The Model 3 and Model Y account for a whopping majority of Tesla's overall deliveries. In the second quarter, Tesla delivered 422,405 Model 3 and Model Y, accounting for a whopping 95% of the company's overall global deliveries.
Model 3和Model Y車型佔據了特斯拉整體銷量的絕大多數。在第二季度，特斯拉交付了422,405輛Model 3和Model Y車型，佔公司整體全球交付量的95%以上。
Tesla now offers four variants of the Model 3 in the U.S. and just three variants of the Model Y.
特斯拉現在在美國提供了四個版本的Model 3，以及僅提供三個版本的Model Y。
