    www.kbb.com/tesla/model-y/
    The 2020 Tesla Model Y is a compact electric SUV build from the same foundation at Tesla’s Model 3 sedan. Kelley Blue Book’s Micah Muzio got his hands on a new Model Y and shares his impressions in this review.
    Born from the Model 3 the Tesla Model Y is a compact electric SUV with a maximum 316-mile range according to the EPA, and a starting price around $54,000 ($54,190) for the long-range model, including $1,200 in destination charges. The Performance model, like our tester, is $8-grand more. But aren’t 0-60 times of 3.5 seconds worth it? A roughly $40,000 standard Model should arrive sometime in 2021.
    Heads up, this particular Model Y is an actual customer car. So, it represents what you might actually buy yourself. Just ignore the fake carbon interior trim…And the probably not legal window tint.
    Slip inside and the interior feels incomplete. No gauge cluster. Extreme simplicity. Take that, Scandinavia. The interior is roomier than the Model 3 because the roof is higher. In back the rear seats recline unlike in the Model 3. Boy that’s comfy. Seated behind myself I fit great. The Model Y’s glass roof is cool. But you definitely feel the sun on hot days.
    Look slightly right from the driver’s seat and you’ll find critical info on the 15-inch center screen. Looking here rather than here takes some getting used to. But you will adapt quickly. Speaking of the screen, Tesla has done an exemplary job arranging the essential functions. Good thing because, besides the seats, nearly all aspects of the vehicle are controlled through here. Like in the Model 3, the steering wheel controls are used to adjust the mirrors, move the steering wheel, and control the audio system. If that sounds confusing, it is not. Same deal with using the screen to control the vents. It all just works. If Tesla would only include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto this would be my favorite infotainment interface.
    Then we have autopilot. It works really well…when it’s working well. Though it can manage the throttle, brakes, steering and make lane changes, autopilot can also get confused, just like human drivers. So, please. No sleeping behind the wheel. I’ll also add that Autotpilot does an unexpectedly amazing job detecting trash cans. Owen Wilson “Wow”. Wing an extra $7,000 at Tesla and you can unlock “Full Self-Driving Capabilities”, enhancing the Y’s skill roster with automatic parking and lane change functions, summon remote vehicle retrieval using Telsa’s app, and automatic on-ramp to off-ramp freeway driving. Again, though it’s labeled “Full Self-Driving”, Teslas do not fully drive themselves. Again, no sleeping behind the wheel.
    While we’re in motion I’ll note that the Model Y drives a lot like a Model 3. A low-mounted battery pack means a low center of gravity. Helping the Y trace corners with tenacious competence. And just like the Model 3, the steering feels stable driving in a straight line but has a sporting quick ratio off-center. Small adjustments affect your trajectory in a big way, so drive with precision.
    Then there’s the acceleration. If you don’t already know, electric torque can be fun. Let’s see if it’s fun. (hard accel) Yup. Smooth relentless thrust is your reward for driving electric. Bask in its silent intensity.
    If you’re motivated, you can drive your Model Y off road. Though the one dirt hill in Long Beach isn’t much of a challenge. For reference, here’s a Toyota Supra going up the same hill. For charging, a standard household outlet is impossibly slow while a 240-volt charger ads roughly 14-miles per hour charged. For fast charging on-the-go Tesla’s vast Supercharging infrastructure is the play.
    As for quality issues. Our car’s b-pillar trim doesn’t fit right and neither does this lower bumper trim, the rear door alignment is slightly off, the rear seats are similarly uneven, and there’s a loud rattle coming from the rear somewhere. Among the 3 braking modes I love Hold. You can accelerate and decelerate using just the accelerator in most situations and the Model Y comes to a perfect, buttery smooth stop every time.
    And no, Tesla is no longer eligible for federal tax incentives. But there might be state incentives depending on where you live. If you want a pragmatic electric vehicle the Chevy Bolt, Hyundai Kona EV, and Nissan Leaf can all be had for much less but the Model Y’s premium touches and technical strengths put it in another class. As of when this video was made the Mustang Mach E is still a mystery but depending on when you’re watching this it’s probably worth a look. As an alternative you might also consider the Jaguar I-PACE, or hey, how about…the Tesla Model 3. It’s $4,000 cheaper than the Model Y and quite similar. Or maybe spring for a Model X if you need more space and want to dazzle children at daycare.

    14 miles per hour of charging is what you would get with a 16 amp 240 volt charger. On a home charger, this car can accept up to 48 amps, which equals about 44 miles of range per hour.

    • @toddwright662
      @toddwright662 4 ปีที่แล้ว +36

      With the travel charger that comes with it (maybe needing to add the NEMA 14-50 adapter at $35), can draw up to 32 amps. This gets 29 miles on the Model 3 and should be comparable on the Model Y. So two reasonable option that are way better than 14 miles per hour.

    • @mdrudholm
      @mdrudholm 4 ปีที่แล้ว +24

      @@toddwright662 And another option would be an electric clothes dryer outlet. Whether it's a NEMA 14-30 or the older 10-30, just order the $35 plug for the included travel charger and you can charge at 23 amps, which is about 20 miles of range per hour. The advantage here is that a lot of garages already have one of these outlets.

      @@toddwright662 I use an older one from my Model S, which gives me 37 miles of range per hour, but it's inconsequential since it's always ready far before morning, even if it's down to a few percent.

      Even with a 20 amp garage outlet at 120 v, it might work for some people. If you are retired or have a below average commute, you might get by fine. If we assume that you drive about an average amount, it's about 32 miles a day to go 11,000 per year of non-road trip miles. That would mean that you'd charge just fine between 11 pm and 7 am each night. For days that are above average, you'd be starting off with close to 300 miles so even if you use quite a bit more, you'd catch up in a few days and never be in trouble.
      And that would be if an average owner tried to get by. I'd recommend it for somebody with lower use, but it shows that if you are willing to use a Supercharger for exceptions, the notion that a regular outlet won't work for anybody is an overstatement. Plus, you could always charge at other hours than overnight.
      But there are many other kinds of outlets. The NEMA 6-20 that you were talking about uses two 20 amp circuits, meaning the same wire gauge as for other outlets in a garage, without any larger circuit breakers. It will add 14 miles per hour, so 2-3 hours per night would serve the average user. So even in old homes with old wiring that can't support two 50 amp breakers, that 220 v air conditioner outlet might be enough.

Seemed like a collection of opinions on individual components of the vehicle that have been discussed ad nauseam in other videos (e.g., build quality, charging infrastructure, front seats on stilts, bigger cabin than Model 3, etc.). I would have loved a "buy it" or "don't buy it" type of conclusion at the end. I didn't see one.

      That's because in real life, you'd need to look the car over quite thoroughly to notice. Most people have no reason to do that, but if they did, they can have Tesla fix any problems. I'm not sure if there was a seat alignment issue or whether the center part was just designed to be slightly lower. If there's a vibration somewhere, Tesla will fix it.

Yes it is a smaller screen, but everything is where I'd prefer it to be. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

      A 240 volt air conditioner outlet (20 amp circuit) will charge at that speed. It's not one that people are likely to use, but my brother uses one. He's retired and lives in an old house, which can handle two extra 20a breakers just fine, and it's more than enough speed for his non-road trip driving. For most people, they will use something bigger. A dryer outlet is far faster. An oven outlet can add up to 37 miles per hour with the right connector.
