Tesla Model Y Pros and Cons

Pros:

Did i mention it's fast
I can't speak for FSD as it is not available in the UK yet (i've got the software) but the autopilot is superb.
Very Safe, both in safety score and experienced driving
High tech, very reactive controls
Smooth, fast and precise
Comfortable to drive
Very little servicing costs
Cheap to run
One pedal driving is the way ahead, i can't stress this too much
Quality construction

Cons:

Windscreen wiper auto control
Could do with Android Auto
Could do with ventilated seats

Owner Review

Tesla Model Y LR RHD

I'd been a follower of Tesla/SpaceX, probably since 2014, but not in any position to own one. In fact i'd invested at the right time (2019) in $TSLA and could have funded my dream car, but decided against spending valuable shares, biding my time until the Model Y RHD came out and was available in the UK.

This finally came to pass and i placed my order on the day the website opened up. 6 months later and i was invited to take possession of a shiney new piece of high tech wizardry.

I can honestly say, there's not one day i can look back on and say i'm not happy with my purchase. From the clean, white interiorto the smooth, deep blue linesof the exterior.

The interior space is cavernous, i'm 6' 6" andcan sit comfortably behind the drivers seat set for me. The roof is a glorious panorama and when the rear seats are folded down, you can fit a double mattress inside.

I've travelled over 11k miles so far in 8 months, mainly on home charged electricity (cheap) but i've never had any issues on the long journeys i have undertake.

winter

Hi, thanks for the nice review TMY. How is your experience in winter? Does the range drop? How fast does the car heat up the interior?

  Hi, i've not really experienced the Winter as yet, though i've got a long trip coming up next week. I'll post my views afterwards. The interior heats up fine, the heated seats and steering wheel help too. The option to have the car condition itself before i leave the front door is awesome!

other EVs

Have you considered EVs from other automakers? Have you been to try any? :)
