Tesla Introduces V2L Powershare for Model 3, Model Y and Model Y L
One of the most practical additions to Tesla's latest vehicles is V2L Powershare, a feature that allows owners to draw electricity directly from their vehicle's battery to power external devices.
Using the Tesla Outlet Adapter, compatible vehicles can turn their charging port into a power outlet, delivering 230V with an output of up to 13A.
This makes it possible to power everyday electrical equipment such as lamps, portable appliances and power tools, offering additional flexibility when electricity is needed away from a conventional wall socket.
For example, V2L Powershare could be useful during outdoor activities, camping trips or situations where access to an electrical outlet is limited. It also provides an alternative way to use the energy stored in an electric vehicle beyond driving.
According to Tesla, V2L Powershare is now included in every new Model 3, Model Y and Model Y L, making the feature available across its newly produced Malaysian vehicle line-up.
The Tesla Outlet Adapter will be sold separately and is expected to become available through the Tesla Shop. Actual power output will depend on the connected device and vehicle settings.

Tesla Model 3 Gets a Larger 16-Inch Touchscreen and Updated Interior
The Tesla Model 3 has also received several interior and hardware upgrades, with every new vehicle now featuring a 16-inch centre touchscreen and a black headliner as standard.
The larger display provides additional screen space for the vehicle's controls, navigation and infotainment functions, while the black headliner introduces a darker interior appearance.
Customers looking for a different cabin aesthetic can also select the newly available Zen Grey interior during vehicle configuration.

The Zen Grey option gives buyers another choice beyond the existing interior finishes, particularly for those who prefer a lighter and more contemporary cabin design.
Together, the larger touchscreen, darker headliner and additional interior option refresh the Model 3's cabin without changing its overall minimalist design approach.

Next-Generation Tesla Roadster Opens for Reservations in Malaysia
Tesla has also opened reservations for its highly anticipated next-generation Roadster in the United States and selected international markets, including Malaysia.
Positioned as an ultra-high-performance electric sports car, the new Roadster is being developed with an emphasis on an immersive driving experience and performance beyond Tesla's existing Plaid vehicles.
According to Tesla, the Roadster's design draws inspiration from high-performance aircraft such as the SR-71 Blackbird and F-35 fighter jet, reflecting the company's ambition to create a vehicle with exceptional performance capabilities.
Tesla has also referenced the use of SpaceX-related components as part of the Roadster's development, although detailed specifications for the production model have not been provided in this announcement.
The company currently plans to begin Roadster production in 2028, with the vehicle initially offered exclusively in left-hand-drive configuration.
This is an important consideration for Malaysian buyers, as Malaysia uses right-hand-drive vehicles. Availability will therefore remain subject to applicable local regulations and legal requirements.
Interested customers can submit a reservation through the Tesla Roadster reservation page, while additional information is available on the official Roadster website.
