Tesla Model 3 and Model Y can now power homes
Original: Tesla Model 3 and Model Y can finally power your home, years after rivals
Tesla is rolling out the ability for Model 3 and Model Y vehicles to supply power to homes, a bidirectional capability rivals like Ford, Hyundai and General Motors have offered for years. The feature allows the car's battery to back up a household during outages or offset energy costs, bringing Tesla's vehicles in line with competing electric cars in vehicle-to-home charging.
Why now: Tesla is finally catching up on a home-backup feature competitors have long offered, a notable shift for the EV market leader.
