2024 Tesla Model Y Consumer Reviews
Pricing
Best car we have every owned
We received our car in December 2020. We had 1 problem with door sticking which was fixed at our house by technician that came to our house. We love the acceleration, very comfortable seats and convenience of charging at home. We leased this Tesla, the next one we will be buying. We are 100% happy. Apple CarPlay is great but is unnecessary on the Tesla because their system is excellent.

So Much Fun, and Affordable
Have owned for 6 weeks and still learning all the cool electronics. Have been enjoying the comfortable and pleasant ride from the get-go. As many others note, the driving experience is wonderful. The controls, both of the driving experience and creature comforts, once you learn what's possible, are mostly beyond the usual automotive standard. Oddly, the traffic-aware cruise control is not as smooth as expected, but it's a cut or two above the old cruise control. Absolutely love the home charging, "pre-conditioning" (warming/cooling the car for your departure time), and range. A quick look at Tesla's charging network and ability to find the best charging site for you makes range anxiety melt away on those occasions when you plan to travel more than 250 miles. So much about this car is so much less hassle than an ICE car. You just have to get used to driving a vehicle that is fundamentally different, which is a step into the future and a lot of fun. For Colorado residents, there's a $5,000 tax credit on top of the federal $7,500 credit (which is applied at the time of sale), and that makes the Model Y less expensive than a comparable RAV4 hybrid or CR-V hybrid.

A few wipes away from perfect
Have had a Model Y AWD Long Range for a month. Build quality good. Paint good, panel gaps good, all doors, windows, seats, seat heaters work. Only glitch is when I start up and shift into R or D, windshield wipers make 2 wipes before settling down. I hope it’s not a sign of some other electrical gremlin. My wife feels suspension is too harsh. I don’t like the frameless window, the turn signal views would be better served with the BSM like Mercedes. I dislike the distracting screen, buttons for most functions would be better. I bought the newest Tesla charger (60 amps) and car charges at 44 miles/hour. Lease rate was great!!! $200/month less than Mercedes GLC. Overall, a solid “B”.

Nice car
I have the 2024 awd long range model in ultra red. I've noticed that some people complain about having to take your eyes off of the road to start the wipers. This is not true. Quickly tap the button on the left stick once and then within a few seconds move the left control button on the steering wheel left or right to speed up the wipers. Alternatively, hold down the right button on the wheel and say "wipers on level 3" or whatever level you want. You can also get CarPlay if you want it by buying a wireless CarPlay adapter on Amazon for less than $100 so CarPlay is available if you want it. The interior is a little more Spartan than I would like but everything else I like. For long road trips charge the car to 100% and you will get around 300 miles range but I never drive that far without stopping and, like a gas car, wouldn't let the battery go to close to 0.

2023 Model Y Performance owner 14 k miles 6 mths
I will start this that I also own a 2022 Ford Lightning. So at non Tesla charging stations get to see all the other EVs. And the charging network pain that goes with it. So for my Model Y performance. Absolutely could not be happier and more impressed. 10 years ahead of everyone else. Yes I guess when I think about it, maybe it rides a little rough. I don’t notice because I love driving this. The control system with two wheels, two stalks, control screen. Absolutely easy. Complete genius. And easy to learn. Both myself and my wife (whom did not want a Tesla and one day later wouldn’t buy anything else) had mastered in 4 hours. I have owned about every brand. Mercedes,Lexus, Acura,Jaguar, Ford,GM etc. etc. This Tesla is not another car. It is a new transportation vehicle and eco-system that is so superior it will forever change personal transportation as we know it.
