Tesla Philippines officially debuted the new Tesla Model Y Launch Series today, February 26, at EDSA Shangri-La mall. The new Model Y has actually been available for preorder since January, with deliveries expected to arrive by April 2025. Prices start at P2,369,000 for the base RWD version, and tops out at P2,689,000 for the long-range AWD variant.
After pulling the covers off the new Model Y, the American carmaker also announced that it will set up its next Supercharger station at EDSA Shangri-La. This will be the second Tesla Supercharger station in the Philippines; the inaugural station is located in the parking area of the Uptown Mall in Bonifacio Global City (BGC).

Construction is scheduled to start soon, so we can most likely expect the new station to open sometime within the calendar year—though Tesla Philippines has not given a concrete timeline on this.
The Supercharger station will consist of four charging ports, and like the one in BGC (pictured below), Tesla Philippines will be charging a fixed rate to use the station. Currently, the price sits at P19/kW, and it should cost around P1,140 to fully charge a Tesla Model 3.
For new buyers, Tesla Philippines is also offering free wall connectors to make charging at home easier and more accessible.
Tesla Philippines is aiming to expand its charging network in the Philippines as more units arrive in the country. The first official Tesla arrived and was handed over on January 23, and the carmaker expects more orders to come in within the next couple of weeks.
