2022 TESLA MODEL Y PERFORMANCE - ELECTRIC SUV WITH SUPERCAR PERFORMANCE

EV Channels Review

The Tesla Model Y Performance, built in Berlin, offers supercar-like acceleration and handling, making it a compelling option for performance enthusiasts. The reviewer highlights its sporty suspension, carbon fiber lip, and improved build quality compared to earlier models, noting well-executed panel gaps. While the acceleration is undeniably impressive, the reviewer points out that the stiff suspension, while beneficial for sporty driving, can be uncomfortable on rough roads. The interior is praised for its clean design and responsive infotainment system, though the lack of digital instrument cluster and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto are noted drawbacks. Real-world range is estimated around 400 km (250 miles) in mixed conditions. Despite its performance prowess, the Model Y Performance's suspension remains a compromise for comfort-seekers, with the Ford Mustang Mach-E cited as a more comfortable alternative. Overall, the Berlin-built Model Y Performance is seen as a significant step forward, offering a thrilling driving experience with a focus on modern EV features.
