Tesla Model Y is the world’s best selling EV, with 748,088 sales from January through August 2026. According to global sales data, its closest competitor, the BYD Song / Seal U, recorded 325,091 units over the same period, giving the Model Y a lead of 422,997 units. That means Tesla’s crossover sold 2.3 times as many vehicles as the runner up, or 130% more. Put another way, the Model Y’s lead alone is bigger than the Song’s entire sales total so far this year. Over those eight months, Tesla sold roughly 3,078 Model Ys every day, which works out to about one every 28 seconds somewhere in the world. The numbers highlight how strong demand remains for the refreshed Model Y, which brought upgrades to ride quality, the interior and styling, along with new trims for different budgets. With four months still left in the year, the Model Y is well on track to hold onto its title as the world’s best selling electric vehicle in 2026.
