Using 20 inch wheels may be the reason why it feels bumpy
We have a model y rwd, it’s our daily driver. I am also a car enthusiast, own and driven a few cars like R34, M5 and Cayenne. How he summed it up is pretty accurate, it’s not fast but linear and good enough. Ride is a bit stiff but not as bad. It doesn’t feel luxury but the fit and finish is pretty ok. For its price it’s very good value and most commute will be same experience as LR or Performance as you don’t really stomped on the accelerator every time. Good honest review here.
Thanks a lot for stopping by and providing a feedback.
Enjoyed your video! Don’t know if you will get this post and will reply before I actually order it!! I had been driving a BMW X3 and I am nervous to switch to a Model Y. Especially because my wife wants to stay with the BMW. I convinced her so far! Cost was one factor on my side. How does a BMWX3 compares to a Tesla long rage RWD Model Y? Am I making a big mistake?
Hi there. Sure, thanks for the feedback. Well Tesla kind of targeted BMW when they were designing Model 3 and Y. I think they succeeded pretty well with Model 3, not sure so much about Model Y in terms of the premium feel and driving dynamics.
The biggest thing with this switch would be an EV experience which some people love from day 1 and for many it takes time to adjust and some absolutely hate it.
Dynamically BMW X3 to me feels more premium in terms of a drive feel, but from cost perspective you can't beat Model Y. Overall Model Y is a very solid car except for few minor things like sound insulation. My best advise would be to rent it for at least 2-3 days and try to live with the car. Drive around the city, go to your favorite grocery store, drive on your highways, literally try to mimic your daily life - you will have most of your questions answered there.
The worst thing you want is to make a switch and 2 days later regret it or if your spouse will not be happy with it. I have been there and that is the reason I started my channel to basically say - rent before you buy. Also be very open minded, like don't have a mindset that you want Tesla to work, just be open to see the goods and the bads, because if you only see the goods, the bads will come few weeks/months later when you have to face them. I think if you want to get into EV experience and test driving Model Y confirms you are ready - then you can make the switch and feel right about it. Hope this helps.
I've heard people change out the coil springs and it really smooths it out.
This might be a good idea which should help improve damping and overall experience
I bought a '24 RWD, 19" wheels & white interior a couple months ago. It has 3k miles so far & zero problems. Not sure what you're talking about when it comes to noise. I guess I'm simply accustomed to loud V8's....
Are you able to upgrade your range work software upgrade?
Thank you for your comment. It's not so much a noise or rattle, but rather how the cabin amplifies the suspension activity. When encountering bumps on the road, instead of the impact being absorbed by the lower part of the car's body, it resonates noticeably within the cabin.
I rented a 2022 Model Y and I know what you mean about the interior “echo”. Hopefully the refreshed Model Y fixes those issues with double paned glass. Great video !
Thanks for the feedback and yes, I noticed this issues across few model Y’s. In MYP it was not as apparent.
It’s interesting you mention this. I test drove the MYLR and MYP back to back a week ago. I drove the MYP first and felt stiff, but it didn’t feel uncomfortable. Turns felt planted and nice. Then, I drove the MYLR…first thing I noticed was some sort of echo or booming. I have no idea what the cause was/is but it was certainly noticeable. That alone would push me towards the MYP just to not have the sonic boom sound
@@Deetroiter yep, you got it right. Another way to call this - is like a sonic boom. In MYP not sure whether they really use more insulation material or it's firmer suspension and different tires that don't make that sound but in base MY and in MYLR this booming issue is quite apparent and looks like something that needs to be fixed.
I love my 2024 Model Y RWD.
That’s awesome. Thanks for the feedback
I've had a Model Y RWD for 10 months. This review is dead on accurate on every point. I love everything about the car until I get it on cracked pavement. That said, I would buy it again.
Thank you for the feedback. Overall it's a good value proposition. I am almost certain Model Y Juniper will be a more refined version just like 2024 Model 3
Out the door I believe its in the 44k. Was about to buy it but instead went with the performance. Out the door more like 51k
Congrats on your new car
i disagree... MY MODEL Y IS AMAZING! But also I understand your POV.
Thanks for your feedback. Yes Model Y is a good value for the money, especially with Fed rebate that is still available. My remarks were primarily on the premium feel of Model Y vs Model 3. Model 3 feels on par let's say with BMW 3 series, where is Model Y doesn't feel as polished as BMW X3.
Am I the only one that noticed jojo siwa face wrapped Tesla 😂
Does this version have the Front and Rear Gigacastings?
Honestly I wasn't sure about this and checked online. Here is the answer I got: Yes, all 2024 Tesla Model Y vehicles, regardless of location (Fremont or Giga Texas), use gigacastings for the rear underbody. This means the rear structure is likely made of two large cast pieces instead of many smaller welded parts.
You can only get a LR now right? Either RWD or AWD?
Yes that is correct. I made this video with the Standard Range and the same week Tesla changed it to the Long Range RWD on their website. Interesting part is whoever got Standard Range also have an option to buy an additional range and make it a Long Range car. So it's essentially the same car.
I booked a SR RWD on May 31 2024 as it’s available almost immediately but I am thinking of updating the order to LR RWD.
can you share what option to choose to get extended range ?
....after model Y juniper, another level will come out and its going to be the same....
Let's see. I think they will improve suspension and quality materials. New Model 3 Highland looks remarkable, expecting something similar or better from Model Y Juniper
i see tesla has Long range in RWD. this video is not talking about that?
Thanks for the comment. That is correct. I just happened to make a video on the base/standard range model Y and Long range RWD showed up on Tesla's website. Since my video reviews primarily focus on driving feel/experience then Long Range RWD will be slightly faster which I think will be almost not noticeable. As we found out weight is the same for both cars as folks who purchased Base RWD Model Y can now unlock extra range and it will become a Long Range model. So essentially it's the same car. Can't wait for the Juniper Model Y to see all the improvements.
@@100miledrive thanks for the reply. I read something on the twitter regarding unlocking RWD to LR by applying software patch. but the Tesla rep in the website chat said there is the battery change LR RWD. Can you please confirm. LR RWD orders are now delayed. Wondering if it’s same as base RWD from investory with some software patch
@@VasanthMahendran Hmm, really not sure about that. Maybe you can find more info on Tesla forums.
If you part exchange your Rolls Royce for a model y then the premium feeling dies. 😊
This guy will hopefuly wake up soon.The model y is a great car.
Thanks for the comment :) In my review I pointed out that Model Y has overall a great value especially with a Fed rebate. What I did stress on was primarily suspension did not offer a premium feel and poor acoustics/sound insulation. You can watch the next video I made where I discussed Model 3 and Model Y.
Theres a difference between the 2023 and 2024. The speakers were downgraded.
Thanks for pointing this out. I wonder if that would be the case with updated 2024 Model Y Long Range.
@100miledrive I think the long range kept the premium sound system.
Hey bud, i think your price is wrong. It’s 35k with the 7500 with tax and other fees about 5k. Which is 40k still the cheapest as you said.
Oh and beware of Tesla pricing, beware of the gas saving* that they say on the website, since it’s not a quantitative number they take off your price.
Thanks for the comment. Yes what I meant was around $35K after deducting $7500 Federal rebate and that is before taxes, drive-off and transportation fees. Those typically are an add-on to all prices. And Tesla just removed standard range model. Can't keep up with them :)
@@100miledrive lol pretty lame you cant get a FWD version which would be much better for snow than this course AWD best, but yes that is lame.
@@billybobbob3003since there is no engine in front it’s same rwd or fwd. battery gives it 50/50 weight distribution, you can drive in snow with winter tires
