2026 Tesla Model Y Consumer Reviews

2024 Model Y Long Range is almost perfect
I am quite happy with my brand new 2024 Model Y dual motor long-range. For me, the technology is stunning, The ride is good, great steering, and very fast when needed. The seating position is quite nice, tons of storage space, awesome sound system, super smooth and quiet, And of course all the benefits of a BEV with the supercharger network! We got the upgrade interior in white which is a nice offset to the dark gray exterior. One pedal driving is really great once you get used to it. And of course you have built-in internet connection, so you can stream videos while you're charging. Preconditioning the interior and the battery before you drive is such a good feature. We also use dog mode extensively as we have a little dog that loves to travel with us. I like the undistracting minimalist interior, I really like the capabilities of the phone app and using it as a key. You just walk up, sit down and drive away! I realized that it's going to take a little bit longer to do longer drives, but i'm willing to accept that and have great confidence with the supercharger network. Fit and finish on the 2924 is quite good and so far no problems at all. Yes, there are some limitations technologically, like no Apple Carplay or Android Auto, but I'm willing to deal with those limitations and adapt to Tesla's approach. The buying experience was super easy without the dealer upsell issues. Overall 5 stars!

Second model Y
This is my second model Y after 20 years of Volvos. I am not a car person. Driving a Tesla has changed how I drive and how I think about driving. The 2025 Y has a faster processor than my 2023 Y. This time I leased as technology is changing too fast. Also a lease of $300 a month is an amazing deal for such an all around fun car to drive. Only detractor is the firm drive.

Great Car
This is an updated review. I had an issue that got resolved, so just iterating that the car is exceptional. The software runs better than any other EV (or non-EV) I drove. The battery management is great, and we see no degradation two years in. It is always funny to see sports cars trying to accelerate faster out of a light. The Y performance is untouchable, and I am guessing the S plaid is insane. Having sentry mode is great, especially when paring in tight spots, or sketchy places. We had some misaligned doors when first getting the car, so there was some wind noise, they fixed that quickly. The (no) maintenance costs are fantastic. Even the brakes will last longer since the car slows down and charges the battery when you take your foot of the accelerator, there are days I'd drive without touching the brakes once. Remember that you are driving a very quiet vehicle, and pedestrians may not hear you, though people are getting used to be more vigilant in our area with lots of EVs. Lots of new EV options now, but the user experience in the Tesla seems quite superior to me, comparing to Ford, Mercedes, and Kia.

MYP goes vroom in comfort
I decided to try a Tesla as I use my car for work. I weighed a lot of vehicle options but for the price, power, and efficiency I could not find a better car. I have already put 32,000 miles in my first year of ownership. I haven’t had any issues at all, even my factory tires are still I good shape. Will probably have to change them around 40,000 but that will be the First maintenance done to the car.

Best car I’ve ever owned!
I absolutely love the tesla model Y. For the first time, I stayed with the same model back to back and upgraded. The tech, safety, convenience are unmatched. It has features that simply don’t exist on other vehicles like a dash cam and sentry recording. It receives software upgrades that regularly add new features. Quality has been great on the two I’ve owned- no significant issues. Instant acceleration and speed are also great and make the car fun to drive.
