Tesla Australia and New Zealand has announced that an Outlet Adapter for the Model Y is coming soon to the Tesla Shop. The accessory will let owners draw power directly from their vehicle to run external devices β a practical addition for anyone who's ever wanted their car to double as a mobile power source.
According to the official @TeslaAUNZ announcement, the adapter is designed to power a range of devices including space heaters, e-bikes, and power tools. That's a meaningful spread of use cases β from camping and job sites to simply topping up an e-bike in a car park without needing a separate outlet.
Tesla's Shop pages for the region already reference vehicle-to-load capability for the Model Y, so this adapter appears to be the retail accessory that unlocks that functionality for owners who don't yet have it. No pricing or exact release date has been shared beyond the 'coming soon' framing, but the announcement suggests availability is close.
For Model Y owners in Australia and New Zealand, it's worth keeping an eye on the Tesla Shop over the coming weeks. If the use cases listed β particularly space heaters and power tools β are any indication, this could be one of the more genuinely useful accessories Tesla has offered in the region.
