TESLA MODEL Y: HOW DOES IT STACK UP AGAINST THE TESLA MODEL 3?

EV Channels Review

This review provides a comprehensive comparison between the Tesla Model Y and Model 3, highlighting the Model Y's key advantages in space and practicality. The reviewer, Ben Sullins, emphasizes that while the two vehicles share approximately 75% of their parts, the Model Y offers significantly more headroom, a larger rear storage area, and a more capacious frunk due to its taller stance and larger dimensions. The automatic liftgate is noted as a major convenience, especially for families. The interior is largely identical to the Model 3, with all controls centralized on the large touchscreen, though the reviewer points out the wireless charging pad as a minor upgrade. The driving experience is described as very similar to the Model 3. The specific Model Y reviewed is an all-wheel-drive Long Range version, estimated at 316 miles of EPA range and costing just under $50,000 USD (before options like wheels and FSD). Charging capabilities via the Supercharger network are detailed, with V3 chargers capable of adding significant range in 15-20 minutes. Sentry Mode and Summon are highlighted as useful features. The reviewer concludes that the Model Y is likely the perfect Tesla for many, particularly due to its increased space and utility over the Model 3.
