Tesla adds official underseat and center console storage trays for the new Model Y.

Tesla has added two new official storage accessories for the redesigned Model Y: a $40 underseat storage tray and a $40 set of sliding center console trays. Both are sold through Tesla’s own shop and only fit the newer, refreshed Model Y — not the 2020-2024 version.

The underseat storage tray

Tesla’s underseat storage tray, which the company added to its shop in mid-August 2026, is a single injection-molded thermoplastic bin with a non-slip design meant to keep it and its contents from sliding around while driving. It only fits Model Y vehicles built in the second half of 2025 or later — it isn’t compatible with 2020-2024 cars or the six-seat Model Y L. Tesla specifically recommends installing it under the front passenger seat only, saying it doesn’t recommend the driver’s side because loose items could interfere with the pedals. The $40 price includes one bin; owners who want storage under both front seats need to buy two.

The center console trays

Separately, Tesla added a $40 set of center console trays in mid-August, also for the redesigned Model Y Premium and Performance built in 2025 or later. The set includes three bins — two for the front center console and one for the armrest storage area — designed to break up the console’s deep, open cargo space into smaller compartments. The top tray slides back and forth so you can reach the lower tray without lifting anything out first.

Should you buy them

Both accessories solve a real complaint about the redesigned Model Y: its console and underseat areas are large enough that small items — phones, wallets, sunglasses, chargers — tend to slide around loose. At $40 each, they’re priced in line with what third-party organizer trays already cost, with the advantage of an exact factory fit and no drilling or trimming. Check your build date before ordering, since neither accessory fits a Model Y built before the second half of 2025, and the underseat tray doesn’t fit the Model Y L. If your Model Y predates the refresh, look at aftermarket console organizers instead — they’re built for the older console shape these Tesla accessories don’t cover.
