Tesla Model Y Daily Driver: New Owner Covers The Pros And Cons via insideevs.com
Glenn explains that the Model Y is the entry-level rear-wheel-drive variant that's only available in select global markets. He also notes that the reason they chose the particular configuration is due to the fact that it's eligible for government incentives.
At any rate, Glenn appreciates that the Model Y is larger than the Model 3 in just about every way, and the seating position is higher. If you're one of the majority of Americans who currently drives an SUV or a truck, the Model Y will likely be easier to get acquainted with than the Model 3. Not to mention the fact that it's much more practical than its smaller sibling.
Glenn goes on to talk about how much he likes the Model 3 and Model Y's simple interior and center touch screen. He also reminds us that the Tesla you buy today isn't the Tesla you're going to end up with over the long term thanks to the automaker's free over-the-air software updates. As far as performance is concerned, the Model Y is sporty for an SUV, but it's not as light or agile as the Model 3. Since it's bigger and heavier, the Model Y doesn't have as much range, and it doesn't accelerate as quickly. However, that's typically the price you pay when you opt for a vehicle that's more accommodating and family-friendly.
