Why the New Tesla Model Y Is a Great Deal Right Now!
The new Tesla Model Y, referred to as the 'Juniper' or 'Launch Edition', is presented as a significant upgrade over the previous g... moreeneration, despite a notable price increase. The reviewer highlights numerous improvements including an 18 km range boost (partially due to included acceleration boost), enhanced aerodynamics, a more heat-reflective glass roof, a new front camera with washer, faster power-folding rear seats, and a 50% reduction in vibration and noise. Interior comfort is also improved with better cabin microphones, a 16-speaker sound system (on dual motor variants), and an optional 8-inch rear display. While the base price is high and incentives have been removed, the reviewer argues the 'Launch Edition' can be a good deal if opting for expensive add-ons like premium paint, larger wheels, and Full Self-Driving, as these are included. However, for buyers not seeking these options, waiting for the non-launch edition or looking at existing inventory for discounts is advised. The reviewer expresses mixed feelings about the return of the turn signal stalk and the gear selector remaining on the screen. less

This video offers an owner's firsthand perspective on the Tesla Cybertruck, focusing on its practicality and driving experience in Canada. The ow... morener highlights the effortless steer-by-wire system, though notes it can be disorienting when switching back to conventional vehicles. While acknowledging the Cybertruck's size requires adjustment, they find it manageable and appreciate the spacious interior.
