Tesla has recently unveiled a new official accessory for its Model Y in China — a manual retractable sunshade designed to provide drivers with the option of open sunlight or full sun protection. This new product is set to be released on June 4, 2026, at 10:00 AM local time.
Priced at 1,499 RMB ($221 USD), the sunshade features a roller-type design integrated into a frame for smooth and quiet operation. Made with the same fabric as the vehicle’s original headliner and a metallic handle, the sunshade seamlessly blends into the minimalist interior of the Model Y.
While there are cheaper third-party sunshades available, some Tesla owners prefer an official version from the company. The Tesla sunshade not only provides sun protection but also underwent rigorous testing to ensure it does not interfere with the vehicle’s safety systems, including full-vehicle airbag deployment testing and road tests.
The product package includes the manual retractable sunshade, an installation tool, and four screw caps. Due to its size, Tesla recommends having two people present during the installation process. Owners can also opt for professional installation at a Tesla service center, although additional labor costs will apply.
It’s important to note that this sunshade is only compatible with Model Y vehicles manufactured in February 2025 and later, as specified on the store page.
Overall, this new accessory from Tesla offers both functionality and style for Model Y owners looking to enhance their driving experience. With its sleek design and safety features, the manual retractable sunshade is sure to be a popular addition to the Tesla accessory lineup.
