Tesla Model Y Review: Good & Bad After Two Months

  • The Tesla Model Y is here, I’ve had it for about two months, and driven 2000 miles, and today I’m giving my full review of the car.

    The Model Y is Tesla’s follow up to the very successful Model 3, announced in March of 2019.
    The base Model of the Model Y is set to come out in 2021, and start around $40,000.
    I purchased the Long Range AWD Model Y which now starts at $52,990 and gets 316 miles of range.
    I also purchased the 20” black Induction wheels which run an extra $2000, as well as the Model Y Red paint upgrade which runs an extra $2000 as well.
    Now since I ordered back in October when the prices were a little lower, the total cost of my Model Y came to $55,500, plus the required Tesla Destination fee of $1,200 for a total of $56,700 before tax.
    After tax and Registration fees, my Grand total came to: $60,179.75
    Regarding music, the Tesla Model Y sound system is incredible, and one of the best systems I’ve heard in any car. Unfortunately, Model Y Spotify integration is pretty terrible.
    No more dealership software upgrades. Tesla sends out regular software updates over the air just like you get on your phone or computer.
    Regarding Tesla Model Y Safety. Tesla achieved 5 stars in every category for safety, making it the safest car ever tested by the NHTSA. Tesla expects the Model Y to be no different, and we should hopefully hear those results soon.
    The standard package includes emergency braking, collision warning, and blind-spot monitoring, but the big two are traffic-aware cruise control, and autosteer.
    I recently did a Model Y road trip of 700 miles round trip to Arizona and used autopilot for the majority of the drive, and it was fantastic.
    Now if you don’t want autosteer, you can drive with just traffic aware cruise control to maintain your speed, and react to the cars around you while you steer, and I’ve never had an issue with this.
    But, if you really want to go for it, and love self driving, you can get Tesla’s full self driving upgrade for an extra $7000.
    Tesla’s goal is to have the Model Y, as it is right now, be capable of becoming a Robotaxi within the next couple of years via software updates.
    Model Y Launch is amazing at 4.8 seconds 0-60 in my car.
    Now the big question with electric cars is…how annoying is it to do Model Y charging? Well, it’s actually the opposite of annoying, it’s incredibly convenient.
    It’s missing a good blind spot detection system in the mirrors.
    Those mirrors are pretty short, and don’t show you as much as I’d like to see in my mirrors.
    The rear visibility is pretty bad, and results in me thinking cars are closer than they really are, since I can only see the top of them.
    The center console comes glossy, which means that it has pretty bad glare at certain times of day, and is the definition of a finger print magnet.
    The glovebox can only be opened with the button on screen, which is two taps to get to, and the voice command listed on Tesla’s website does not work.
    The air conditioning is a little complex to get to and adjust when driving, even though it is overall cool.
    The interior ambient lights are almost non-existant, and provide hardly any light
    The app can be buggy, leaving me to walk up to the car, open the handle, and have nothing happen, until I then pull out my phone, open the Tesla app, and it unlocks. It also seems to have more difficulty since both mine and my wife’s phones are connected.
    Spotify integration is pretty bad as I mentioned before, leading me to not use the app on screen
    Auto brights are a little too aggressive for me, turning on when I don’t really need them just because no cars are around. I turned them off.
    There is a bug with the front trunk. The trim is cheap and loose inside, the window didn’t open properly and caused a gash, there are panel gaps, and a few other alignment issues.

      I actually thought this review felt like a press release from Tesla, such as those bogus claims about Teslas being safer on the road than other cars. This is simply not true. Cease and desist letters from the federal government were sent to Tesla to take down their claims of superior safety. And, of the 30 minutes, you only spent 2 of it on the very poor and laughable fit and finish, and that was at the end of the video. I think my lawn mower was put together better.

    I just want to thank you Ryan for doing an extensive review on the audio system. Every car I am interested in always seems to say nothing about the audio system, including in customer reviews. I buy a car based on how quiet it is and the audio system. Your comments about the fit and finish match those of JD Power Associates that rate it last in quality of cars!!! That being said, I still strongly consider the Tesla for my choice. I will sign up and hope to learn more...especially accessories that you find for the car that are a plus. Please let me know as soon as you see an update for the Spotify app and Apple Carplay!

(First time they came to me, 2nd they wanted me to bring it in to try to figure out what keeps happening). That window failure has happened about 15 times since I've gotten the car a little over a month ago. They gave me a lender Model S 85D and to be honest I hate it.

      Yeah the big reason I think rivian is a better choice is because their skateboard platform has 190 kwh as opposed to tesla's 100. They use a different battery architecture to do it, which will undoubtedly make their batteries harder to cool, but when you're going off-roading, more power is absolutely necessary (see engineering explained's video on towing with an electric vehicle). You can make the car as efficient as you want, but ultimately, more power = more gravitational energy you can overcome. That's just thermodynamics. And besides, supporting Tesla's competitors will force them to innovate more. A monopoly is never a good thing.

      There are two reasons why they didn't put a heads up display. First is for complexity and production cost, which reflects on assembly time and profit margins. Second is for autonomy, meaning that the heads-up display becomes pointless for most of the lifetime of the car to anyone who purchased full self-driving. The model 3 isn't the only car with a central speedometer and it's close enough to the line of sight that most people get used to it pretty quickly.

Every dip and rebound on the stock value is money being made from stock manipulation since its behavior can be easily played with and predicted. A text conversation between an employee whistleblower and an important reporter from MSNBC paying him to spread lies, reporter that received a large amount of money to do so, is only the tip of the iceberg on money going around shaming Tesla and Elon. Truth is the pros of owning a Tesla greatly outweigh the cons and a lot of revenues from powerful corporations are at stake. Tons of people have been indoctrinated to respond with hatred to anyone who is saying anything positive about Elon Musk and his companies. Take a good look at where your preconceived notions come from. Don't buy into the bullshit and fact check from independent sources.

    I really want to love this car, I really do - but those finishing issues with the tacky poor interior, paint work issues and the body panels not fitting correctly just ruin the whole thing for me- once tesla bring the finish quality of their products up to the standards of say a BMW or a Mercedes, then it’s a no brainer, I would buy one in a heartbeat. By the way this is a very good review - thank you.

    Nice review. I prefer reviews based on months (rather than days or even hours) of ownership. I hate those Amazon reviews where the person just opened the box fifteen minutes ago and it's the greatest thing they've ever bought.
    Does the keycard work while in your wallet, or do you have to take the card out? I am much more likely to forget my phone than my wallet, so unless the door unlocking with the app becomes flawless, I think I'd rely on the card and use the app as the backup, rather than the other way around.
    If they're going to insist on having virtually no physical controls, they really have to get the voice controls to work perfectly, and it has to be smart enough to interpret multiple commands to perform the same task. I fiddle with my climate control a lot, especially in cold weather where I have to defrost at first, then blast the heat to warm the cabin, then turn it down to get comfortable. Poking around on a touch screen while driving is out of the question, so the voice controls need to be intuitive and flawless. In my car (2007 Honda CRV) voice control is worthless if I'm driving with the windows open, and even when closed it's hard if other people in the car are talking. How reliable is your voice control under those conditions?
    By the way, feel free to include more smooching in your videos. That was very sweet.

    • @RyanShawtech
      @RyanShawtech  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah same here. The key has to be out of the wallet in my experience like a hotel room key. And yeah. The vice controls are good, but not perfect and I hope they continue to improve them. I haven’t tried voice controls with the windows down, what mph are you typically driving at with the windows down? I’ll have to test it some time.
      And thanks! Haha :)

      I have a M3 for 17 months now...I put my keycard in the outer-most section of wallet (where no money is because I gotz car payments man!). It works through that single layer of leather and is my backup in case my S9 phone dies (has happened a few times playing pokemon too zealously). I used to leave home occasionally forgetting wallet but getting better now at always checking for my backup key holder. Now with the homelink on garage door setup in the car I actually stopped carrying sharp pieces of jangly metals in my pockets everywhere. I only grab those if going out the door on foot now for exercise (again...phone could open garage from outside via model 3, unless it dies on my walk)

      I agree, for the price those are pretty significant issues in quality. Their focus is clearly on slapping them together and shipping them out without the detail to quality control. And we all know how annoying it is to get a Tesla repair done as not many places service them as well as back order and availability on parts. They are trying to pump out as many orders as they can without attention to quality and it's going to come to bite them in the ass.
