Question:

I bought a new 2024 Tesla Model Y with factory tow package, what type of adapter do I need to connect most trailers?

It depends on what trailer you'd consider to be "most" trailers, but with a Tesla you're going to be pretty limited so I'll assume it's nothing with brakes.

So with that being said, we have the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector and Installation Kit # 119250KIT, which is a custom fit harness that'll simply plug into your factory wiring. This is a 4 pole wiring harness which is pretty much that standard on every small trailer.

It's also worth nothing that your Tesla only has a 3,500 lb towing capacity so keep that in mind whenever you load up your trailer and get ready to head out.
