@@christinanallen4575 shes impressive. Her voice is so stern and clear. She knows her stuff and isn't shy. You should encourage her n see of she wants to do youtube videos.
This has been the best Tesla (for a family ) review I have seen ! I have been wanting the X but couldn’t pull the trigger because of the cost. Seeing the Y and X together , it’s the Y for me. The $40k more on the X is for those doors that just aren’t practical for us. Thanks for doing this.
In regards to the Model X, there are 3 seating options: 5, 6, or 7 seats. The 6 seat layout is actually MORE expensive than the 7 seat due to the captain-style chairs. Of course, the 5 seat option is the cheapest of the three if you're just looking to get into a Model X at the most affordable price. The Model X will also have an adjustable air suspension for a smoother ride and you can raise or lower it to get in and out of steep driveways. So the X is larger in physical size, larger battery, air suspension, falcon-wing doors, gauge cluster behind the steering wheel, more technology like auto presenting doors that open and close, etc. These are the things to consider if the price difference is worth it to you. Oh, and Rodriguez daughter...superstar!
I’m a single guy with no kids I don’t really have need for these vehicles but I’m really impressed with the actual in-depth practical review if I was looking for something like this this is exactly the way I want someone to review it.
This video has been extremely helpful since I have a third kid on the way and I'm trying to decide between a model y with a third row and a model x with a third row. Thanks kim!
17:03 It always makes sense to get a tow hitch. It's only a few extra dollars on your payment. I am not a big fan on White interior because it gets dirty looking over time. Especially with kids.
I love you ladies! Great recap. Trying to get my wife to give up her Enclave. We already have the Performance version of the Y (for me), but if I could get her to give up the ICE, I’d trade for the 7 seater and pick up a 3. Thank you.
As a mom of 3 toddlers/babies , I would go for model X 6 seats because I won’t be able to put down most of the seats anyway. I got 3 car seats and need to go to the back to check their seatbelts.
With us having two kids aged 2 years old and a 7 month, the Y provided us enough space. Depending on how big the family, I see the Y dominating for most families at that price point. This video has me excited for our delivery date!
my only major concern for the model y 7 seater is what happens if you have older child or small adult in the back seat and the Model Y hits a big bump. How hard is that impact on the back roof/window going to be if the kid/adult bouncing hits. Also I wonder what the impact to EPA range would be for fully loaded (7 people with stuff) vs 1 person with no stuff. I am guessing that EPA tests with no stuff.
So baby girl's first car will be self-driving, that's just amazing. Back when I was her age, power windows were an option and I had to walk a mile in the snow to school. LOL
Family of six with a Sienna and model 3. At 6’6” and using the easy entry on the 3 no one wants to sit behind even our smallest child. Also the 3’s belts in the rear are a pain with boosters. For what the X costs I would need Sienna type room in all 3 rows. Wish they would have made an X XL or something.
We’re a family of 7 and I currently drive a Yukon XL to accommodate my kids (2, 5, 9, 11, and 12) because I don’t want them cramped. They do lots of activities so I need room for sports equipment, Colorguard flags, etc. I want an electric vehicle but what’s on the market currently just won’t cut it for my family sadly
You guys did a good job of showing in real time the space in these vehicles, I have been eyeing these things hard and honestly feel that for my families need, it would be best to save the money on the bigger car and get the smaller car
Kudos on a superb video. Perhaps one of the best comparisons out there on TH-cam. I am on the fence about any sort of Tesla as a father of 3 little kids (6/3/6 weeks). This is making my decision path more comfortable. Appreciate your hard work on putting this together!
I just got my model Y 3months ago and I love it! But if I could afford the X that’s what I would’ve chosen. It just something about the model X 🤦🏽♀️ the doors and it way more roomy. Btw, I love your neighborhood😍 great video!
you should sit on the passenger side of the 3rd row. I couldn't fit my feet under the seat. the rails won't let me put my feet/shoes side by side. the driver side is "larger" because the rails are supporting the left and mid second row seats, hence it's wider. the passenger side rails is supporting only the right side 2nd row seat. the rails are closer together. the only way to "set" my feet on the floor (while on the passenger side 3rd row seat) is either pushing the 2nd row seat forward to get more room and putting each feet on each rail. Or putting my left foot in front of the driver side 3rd row seat and my right foot in front of me. I'm not tall, 5'5" with size 9.5 shoes. did I miss a technique in how to sit in the 3rd row?
I have a 3, soon to be Y so I would buy the Y but I still think the X is the best looking Tesla. It just looks so badass to me. Y has better charging and tech
You can adjust 3rd row leg room in the Y while you’re sitting back there - just hold the button on the shoulder of the second row seats and move them forward or back.
@@christinanallen4575 now that you’ve had the car a little while, how is the 3rd row? I did a test drive with my 4 kids and everyone hated it. I’m so bummed.
Both great cars. For those who like sleek minimalist look, then the Model Y is suitable for them. For those who like more noticeable options, then Model X is suitable for them.
Just took a test drive of the Model Y 7 seater. The 3rd row was useless. Even my 5 yr old was so uncomfortable sitting back there even with the 2nd row seats moved forward. As a 5 seater the Model Y is super spacious.
Do a side video of the Y and a group of 7 people getting in going to a location getting out, then all getting in, mix the seating up and video back and the pros and cons, then do it with the X
great comparison...I rented a Tesla...and fell in love with it..so different and fun....upgrading for a heated steering wheel? I mean I like mean I like the heated steering wheel in winter....but not really a reason for an upgrade..LOL
Ok, so I'm curious which gas SUV she was coming from. I drive a Suburban, and nothing Electric at the moment matches it in size. I am going to downsize to an R1T, but would like to know what she was coming from exactly size wise
I love the comparisons. This is very knowledgeable for anybody looking but honestly why spend an extra 40k when you got it all in the Y? I’m in love and can’t wait to get my Y this weekend. 😊
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I will get a Tesla for my family when they do something more comfy and bigger like a van because this looks so uncomfortable compared to my Honda Odyssey, no way I going to put my kids in this really uncomfortable place. 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
OMG, with all due respect, how beautiful are you moms in that neighborhood! (I'm really sorry if this sounds creepy, covid has kept me separated from my wife for a long time now) Anyway, great video, most useful comparison between the 2 models I've seen!
Great video! That poor girl's feet will pop off if they get in an accident and that seems scary to me. I get that the price is less and that is a decent option for that scenario but the helicopter windshield, extra nav screen, auto doors including front doors, air suspension, better audio system, larger space, faster acceleration, additional range, new screen in back, new ventilated seats, 6 seat option for more modern and open space cabin, and other factors definitely justify the extra cost. If you want electric and the X is not an option, and your 3rd row crew is small, this definitely could "work". Tesla really needs to make the Cybertruck an SUV also. That would provide a large 3rd row option and the price would be quite low for the size assuming it's a 7k-10k upgrade from the standard truck price.
Wow the seats fold really nice and flat great if you want to put a couple of dogs in the back. So many ev's have terrible seat folding but this Y reminds me of the way a prius seats fold down to make a nice flat area.
The ford expedition might go electric soon since their f150 truck already is & it's a pretty similar platform. That'd be a gigantic EV family hauler if ever.
This is probably the best model comparison I've seen between the two. Focused on space and practicality rather than performance and range. Great job!
i agree
Definitely agree. The 7 seater is the way to go even if you’re not going to use everyday is there in my opinion
Cos mums know whats important ;)
Hybrid Pacifica is looking really good….
Agreed
08:00 the young woman in the car speaks like she is about 15 years older than she appears to be. Really well spoken.
Yeah she looks like she barely could even be educated
Thank you! She’s only 11

How cute is the Rodriguez family! The daughter stole the show. :)

The little brother too!😂
The X is still the one I prefer. I would love to get the new refresh version with that same 6 seat configuration you have.
Thanks for putting someone in the back seat to give a real picture of what its like.

Thank you for your honesty about the car. Saving up to get Model Y.
I recently purchased a Y for my family, the kids love it lol
Just placed an order for my 7 seater Y and this really helped me decide so thank you so much. I'm so excited!!! Love the white on white 🤩.

Yeah, these cars just aren't practical for large families. They need to make van sized electric cars.

This just sealed the deal for me. Just scheduled my model Y test drive.

What did you end up getting? I’m in your same boat with ages in our kiddos?
Tow hitch is a must for the model Y. Roof racks brings down the range. Aerodynamics.
I just got my model Y 3months ago and I love it! But if I could afford the X that’s what I would’ve chosen. It just something about the model X 🤦🏽♀️ the doors and it way more roomy. Btw, I love your neighborhood😍 great video!
Is the ride quality harsh?!
Best practical Tesla review videos. I prefer this over those tech, performance and etc.
This is the exact video I have been waiting for. I am stuck in my lease for a while but as soon as it up i am getting my MY 7 seater
you should sit on the passenger side of the 3rd row.

oh man.. that smart kid can speak much better on camera than I can 😅... Id subscribe to her if she ever makes a channel.
Model Y 3rd row looks super tight
You can adjust 3rd row leg room in the Y while you’re sitting back there - just hold the button on the shoulder of the second row seats and move them forward or back.
Is there an ac vent for the 3rd row? Is the trunk glass going to feel (very) hot in the middle of the day? I don't see the 3rd row very comfortable.
It actually is really comfortable at least for me in the back, the glass in the back is not very hot. I am 5 feet tall and it is very comfortable.
@@christinanallen4575 How is the lighting at night for the third row? I noticed that there isn’t any lighting back there either.
@@christinanallen4575 now that you’ve had the car a little while, how is the 3rd row? I did a test drive with my 4 kids and everyone hated it. I’m so bummed.
This is actually extremely informative. Thanks
Both great cars. For those who like sleek minimalist look, then the Model Y is suitable for them. For those who like more noticeable options, then Model X is suitable for them.
I’m really wondering how you can open the falcon doors in an nyc parking garage? I feel like it would be instantly damaged.
Nice to finally see a BIPOC in a Tesla video!
I have 3 kids with a model 3. The Y is nice, but for $20k more I couldn’t justify it only being 10% bigger then the 3. No complaints
Thank you so much for this video! Hands down the best comparison for us to make our decision!
ThNk you !
The Model X needs to be stretched a little and include adaptable 2nd row seats. Time for a Model X Max!
and make it taller
1:03 what about the Tesla roadster
Model Y much more room than I thought possible. Very useful video.
Great review and personally, I think all Teslas Rock!
Just took a test drive of the Model Y 7 seater. The 3rd row was useless. Even my 5 yr old was so uncomfortable sitting back there even with the 2nd row seats moved forward. As a 5 seater the Model Y is super spacious.
I'm gonna need that girl to coach me for my public speaking class I'm taking this fall! She's amazing!
Model X has option for 7 seats now (Model X Plaid doesn't have this option). Can you make video on Model X 7-seater vs Model Y 7-seater? Thank you.
I do not see a roof rack option when customizing the Y.
was looking for a comparison of the suspension and how the ride feels between the two
I just moved feom Canton Ga ro Castle Rock Colorado and you two really make me miss Ga.
Can you link the interior Ceramic coating and what does it do? Thank you
th-cam.com/video/j7AkgwqqnoY/w-d-xo.html
we cover it in this video. Helps with resisting stains.
how much is the electricity cost per motnh more or less?
I wonder if the middle 20% section of the second row of model Y can be removed entirely so as to mimic the 2nd row captain seats of model X?
I’m looking at the S just I hear so many thing about the door handle not working well plus I live in a cold climate
That fact that they have to say “it’s not that bad” in this video so much means that it is in fact, that bad.
Going with the Y headlights and trunk on point!
if you didn't buy it with the extra seat, could you get it after? and how?
Great comparison. Already sent to a friend. Love moms in ripped jeans!!!!
lol
Do a side video of the Y and a group of 7 people getting in going to a location getting out, then all getting in, mix the seating up and video back and the pros and cons, then do it with the X
One of best comparisons videos out there. Thank you
Not to be rude but she lives in atlanta and wants to upgrade to a Y because of heated steering wheel? It barely hits 32 degrees in atlanta.
16:06 Oh I definitely knew this. I'll never know what warm hands feel like. - Me, a 2020 Model Y Owner :(
unfortunately, for some reason, Tesla is not currently offering the model Y with 7 seat in the UK
We need an updated video today with current prices being way less and more closer together and also the new models
That second row is vertical on the recliner, the idea is that you move it forward and recline it a bit. Great content!!!
Thank you and Candice Owens for the review!
What is the range like with a rooftop box
Likely 20%+ impact
It was pretty much a no brainer to get the S3X
7 seater is the way to go 🎉
great comparison...I rented a Tesla...and fell in love with it..so different and fun....upgrading for a heated steering wheel? I mean I like mean I like the heated steering wheel in winter....but not really a reason for an upgrade..LOL
So you said the Y has more second row leg room? That doesn't make sense, do you have the numbers?
Hi I googled it and it does have 0.7 more second row leg room
Surprised us too
@@ItsKimJava I wonder if the refresh X is going to be more space efficient
Ok, so I'm curious which gas SUV she was coming from. I drive a Suburban, and nothing Electric at the moment matches it in size. I am going to downsize to an R1T, but would like to know what she was coming from exactly size wise
Kia Sorento
Wait for the Ford Expedition to turn EV like how the F150 truck did. Even the Hummer has an EV version now.
Finally the first practical review. Thank you.
Does the Model Y 3rd row have child seat anchors?
I love the comparisons. This is very knowledgeable for anybody looking but honestly why spend an extra 40k when you got it all in the Y? I’m in love and can’t wait to get my Y this weekend. 😊
Great comparison of the space within the X and Y! Good explaining the measurements, and the impromptu activity of everyone.
Watched several crappy videos on this subject but this was pretty good!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I will get a Tesla for my family when they do something more comfy and bigger like a van because this looks so uncomfortable compared to my Honda Odyssey, no way I going to put my kids in this really uncomfortable place. 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
Yeah, exactly. It's just too small. I think it's funny that it's marketed as an SUV. If anything, it looks more like a full size sedan/crossover.
OMG, with all due respect, how beautiful are you moms in that neighborhood! (I'm really sorry if this sounds creepy, covid has kept me separated from my wife for a long time now) Anyway, great video, most useful comparison between the 2 models I've seen!
Okay the younger lady gave some really good info way more value added than one will anticipate.
I think in a rear-end crash the two people sitting in the back might not survive as there isn't much room left for the impact...right??

White seats are the best in the Y!!
Good quality accessories for tesla. I know where can you get it.
I went with a 2020 Model X Ludicrous Peformance because my family is tall and they fit better in the x than the y. I’m 6’7 my brother is 6’4.
Going for my Y test drive in Roswell today!
Wow the seats fold really nice and flat great if you want to put a couple of dogs in the back.
So many ev's have terrible seat folding but this Y reminds me of the way a prius seats fold down to make a nice flat area.
That’s a good point. Its better to get model Y+3 than model x
Good comparison. Wish you would have compared front storage.
A heart ♥️ from you would be tremendous and that would make my day
Thanks for your support!
i guess ur day is made now
I ordered a Model Y with black seats. I want white but everyone I know says to go with black :(
Where’s the best place to buy the y
X is a massive flex SUV, Y is amazing utility in smaller form.
Anyone with sneakers sz.10 and above - can you really fit in the 3rd row model Y?
Yes but at the expense of moving second row up.
But no one says if there is a rear collision... children or people who were sitting in the back will not survive there are no rear airbags at all
The new model 3s has a heated steering wheel too now
I go with model Y as X just does not have enough space. I go with minivan for space.
The ford expedition might go electric soon since their f150 truck already is & it's a pretty similar platform. That'd be a gigantic EV family hauler if ever.
