TESLA MODEL Y 35,000 MILE REVIEW

EV Channels Review

This 35,000-mile review of the Tesla Model Y Long Range highlights significant price increases since its 2020 purchase, making the current price point questionable compared to competitors. While the reviewer praises the Model Y's convenience, infotainment, sound system, and Tesla's manufacturing lead, they acknowledge that the ride quality could be more luxurious. The reviewer suggests that at current prices, a Model 3 Long Range might offer better value, or one might consider a different brand's SUV like the Porsche Macan. Despite minor issues like panel gaps, the reviewer reaffirms Tesla's overall advantage due to its charging infrastructure, service network, and consistent over-the-air updates that maintain vehicle relevance. The reviewer concludes that while they are happy with their purchase, the escalating price makes it a harder recommendation for new buyers, especially when compared to more affordable options from Hyundai and Ford, though Tesla's production scale remains a key differentiator.
