Not Worth for the Price.

I bought Tesla Model Y last month. The overall experience of the car is not great. Don’t make your decision based on price cuts.Here are the things I noticed. Pros - Good acceleration you will notice. Cons - Panel gap issues which cannot be fixed and door closing issues which are not addressed. - Battery range is Joke. I leave in Pennsylvania there will be 50-60 miles degradation for the number of miles you charged. - Cheap Interiors. - Road noise is very high. May be it is designed just for internal roads. - Door designed is not great which contributes to road noise. - Need to have efficient blind spot monitoring than just cameras which are not great. - Poor auto wipers usage. I cannot change speed when I have to use it suddenly. May be they have to move wipers system out of screen. - The trunk is bigger but the way they designed the door is horrible. They compromised too much space because of style. As a user I don’t want that much huge door. - The back mirrors are not that convinent because of trunk door design. - I got peed myself while using auto steer beta option. It dropped the speed from 75 miles to 45 miles while changing lanes. Thank god I don’t have any vehicles behind. If there was truck then I will be gone for sure. I change my Mind using any of Drive options which left me with just regular battery car. For just buying battery car we have very good options coming along in luxury vehicles. I don’t have to buy Tesla for it as any of auto drive options are not usable with confidence. Overall very bad experience with the vehicle.

Worst suv I’ve ever had

Took it to tow my jetski only once and water got in to the rear drivetrain. Tesla in Irvine ca sneaked $4000 to replace it and it wasn’t even the problem. The vehicle is so poorly constructed that by towing my single trailer jetski only once, it messed up both of the rear wheel bearings . Don’t go near any Tesla if you want to tow with it. I have 2 teslas and I regret buying both of them. The insurance is higher as well. Elon go home! I’m going back to gas!

The most impactful element for me is the ability to sculpt the car’s functions to suit my preferences. It takes a while to modify your psychomotor functions but, after a few months I feel comfortable with the car’s design.

If I was broke and had to choose between a house and this car I would choose this car. It is hands down the best car I have ever driven. I love everything about how Tesla works from the ordering process to service appointments even customer service. You would think this is a paid review but it’s not! I love full self driving, in fact my car drives me everywhere. It blows me away how good it is. I drive (well actually my car does all the driving) to client appointments for work all day with sensitive photography equipment and lithium batteries that need to keep coolish in the hot Florida sun. I can leave my AC on when I’m not I the car. I also run a refrigerator and keep healthy snacks on hand and I love pet mode for my doggo. Tesla if you are reading this you should hire me!
