For a great picture at the Model Y, I recommend Sandy Munro's complete teardown: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Br9luPS5VsE&list=PLkiDlGyJnprdFftxAZ85a5Rp1LlET

For a great picture at the Model Y, I recommend Sandy Munro's complete teardown: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Br9luPS5VsE&list=PLkiDlGyJnprdFftxAZ85a5Rp1LlET4Wbr https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Br9luPS5VsE&list=PLkiDlGyJnp... Overall the Model Y seems like a far better car from Tesla's perspective - much simpler design, cheaper to build, tons of under-the-hood improvements to make it more efficient. From a consumer perspective, you really do get larger Model 3 - you pay a bit more, get a lot more volume, higher seating position and worse driving performance. Most of the improvements would probably only show up in comparison with similar cars ie longer range, cheaper price etc.

> worse driving performance So, why to buy it then ?

  You want an SUV, and need the extra space. It still drives amazing.

  It's very slightly worse since it sits higher up and is heavier. But it's not like it's bad. And most people aren't buying the car to take it on a track. The larger size and higher seating position likely greatly outweigh any hit to performance for most people.

  Worse driving performance when compared to the model 3. Better performance than most competitors in the same category. You can get 3.5s in 0-60 with the performance version.

Wow thanks for sharing the YouTube link. When you said teardown I didn’t expect anything that granular!
