Tesla Model Y Performance review after 6 months 

I completely agree with you about the headlights. They are amazing.

Great job on this review. I'm considering the Performance model and this answered a lot of questions I had. Thank you!

One of the best reviews if not the best I’ve seen! My MYP is on order for may-June delivery and I’m even more excited!

I just put in an order for a MYP and seeing this made me 100000x more excited, love the vid

Prob one of the best reviews I’ve seen. Thanks

23 YP . Agree with the headlights. They are awesome. Ride is firm and acceptable. Suspension handles well. More stable at high speeds hiting dipd and bumps. For extra$$$ it's really worth it.

Very good video pal Keep up the good content!

This was an amazing review!

Good overall review. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks man. You are the best RU-vid car reviewer hands down. We take possession of the Model Y performance in ultra red in 2 days. Can't wait. 😁

Great review. We actually just picked up a MYP in December. I drive along that same strip of 470 daily 🙂

Just ordered 1 Yesterday🎉 Model Y Performance.. Blk/Blk

Got my performance 2 weeks ago. Love the back exterior. I tinted all the windows to match the rears and it looks super sleek.

Excellent review! I believe this will be the review that swings me to buy one! Cheers!

Helpful review - thanks - though I'd welcome your view on ride comfort. Looks are such a personal thing (I prefer the M3), but great in black. The taller body requires a wider track for stability, but despite the fatter body the interior is actually no wider than the M3.

The PMY is effing awesome. It is worth every penny of the $5K upgrade cost from the (software nerfed) LR. I love rthe UberTurbine wheels -- I've curbed the hell out of them with some nice gouges to show, but no effect on the balance, and no damage to the tires, which taper inward to seemingly avoid damagine when a rim hits a curb or pothole edge. I'm convinced the UberTurbine is an engineering achievement, designed to "take a wacking and keep on tracking".

When I went to order my Tesla MYP sat the Tesla dealer I was told the calipers were Brembo. I also called Tesla and they have confirmed to me that the brakes are performance Brembo. Tesla did a deal with Brembo. The performance modem also has a lower suspension. It’s not just the speed they made adjustments for a supercar drive. Also, the new models come with a lot more features than the older models e.g. new a/s tires, new AMD Ryzen chip, new heated windshield wipers, new lithium-ion battery for the front, etc. Even though the wait is a killer the time is now to order the new MYP 22’.

Great review👍

Install an auto frunk. Best option I've added to my 2022 Model Y Performance. I use my frunk multiple times a day now where before I was also worried about closing it.

Great review! I am waiting for my MYP, I currently own a M3 SR+. Btw I think you meant to say “When you let off of the accelerator” not off of the brake :)

Awsm information we are going today Dublin for tesla y test drive

Y just became available to order last week in Australia. I’ve ordered a Performance but there are none in the country to look at or drive yet or watch local reviews. Thx for the video. What brand are the included summer tyres? I’m thinking of buying 2x 295’s and using the 275’s up front.

fantastic video overall, my final one before hitting buy.

thx man for video. Great car! performance almost like Ferrari for about 1/5 or 1/6 price of Ferrari. Love it. Greetings from Poland, Europe 🙂

Hi , did you get any PPF installed or apply ceramic coating?....how about window tinting?....also , how can you correct torque stability?....thanks..great vid

I just ordered a PMY last week, my EDD is currently set for July 28th to Sept 8th. I had to take advantage of the current used car prices, I was offered $61,866 for my 2020 LR AWD Y with 20K miles. I do have reservations over living with the 21" Uberturbine's here in Illinois.

I really love my 22 MYP. Very impressed. Had it for 3 months, it’s my first EV. Also, the ride quality with the Michelin and 22 inch Uberturbine wheels is actually quite acceptable. I was expecting a go cart, by the comments I was reading online in reference to ride quality. It’s very refined, in addition to the build quality.

great video ! I am picking up my MYP this afternoon ! What is the range of the vehicle - I think I heard you say 260 miles thanks Dave

Fire review

We’re waiting on our MYP’s arrival. My gal backed down from that bold red & we opted for black. Has the color had an impact on temp power usage & range in hotter weather?

Thank you for a detailed review, but you haven't mentioned about the suspension stiffness which I really wonder about it. I think that's a disincentive factor for the most.

Good review

My delivery date is October. Can't wait. :)

Thanks you 👍👍

Hello, Sir. I have a Tesla Y too. what is your opinion about using a super charge if you do not have a charge in your house?? This can cause damage to the battery. I appreciate your opinion.

Sure wish when you went in reverse it would a digital rear view mirror was available. This is sometimes standard on high level trims of other cars.

Do you thinking handling and ride is better after the tire change?

I put 50k on my MYP in 281 days. At 35k I changed my tires to Falken 275 and 295. Love my EV

I’m here because I’m thinking of getting one.

Is there actually a difference in suspension (aside from hight) between the P and the LR or does ride quality come down to wheel and ture choice?…

HW4 FSD is great. No not perfect but great-most of my driving A to B use done with minimal intervention/disengagement. v12 coming! It's so great I'd rather have a Y with FSD than X without. (I did FSD transfer from X)

My Performance Model shows estimate delivery date of March 27th-April 8th!!! 👍🏻👍🏻 My birthday is March 29th that’ll be awesome to get it that day!!!! Can’t wait!

OMG these are now $56,900 !!!! Heading to Tesla tomorrow

What are the tire sizes that you are having on your Y? Thanks

Did you have any issues with the ground clearance when driving in mountains, valleys etc?

What do you mean by "clunky" when you speak about the streaming services?

Thank you

Ordered the Model Y Performance in white paint. Love the black but I’ve seen a lot of comments not in favor. Any comments here about the black paint vs white or any other color?

I've had my car on order for over 9 months and today I got my VIN number. this video got me excited all over again for the car.

I’m currently waiting for my Model Y order. Do you prefer no tint the on the front windows? How is the temperature without tint? I like the look both ways. Thanks.

Great review. 2 point you missed asfaik: -Wireless charging could’ve been ventilated to cool down the phone. You couldve expressed that. -Rear side of the exterior gets a lot of rocks from front tier hence the scars. It may be better to cover there with ppf right from get go.

Is there actually a difference between the P and LR brakes aside from caliper color?…

The tire not being widen enough to cover the wheel alloys is a slight concern!

Y #1 👍

PPF on it or it’s fine without it ? I’m about to order one this month

Some Mountain Pass Perf.Coilovers and control arms will solve the handling woes. :-)

How is the black paint so far ????

I have a eta of june/july thanks for helpful video but what in the world was that walking behind you ? hopefully a puppy or something

would you tell us about the suspension? How confutable it is compared to the dual motors version.

what is the max range it show when you charge it to 100% ?

auto pilot changes lane by itself?

What’s the sizing on the tires you have in this video? Front and rear.

Do you know if Tesla Applies brake or regenerate while on cruise control for maintaining distance?

11:51 my friend gets 270-285 with the same model. could it be the tire size?

Thank you…:)

I had a 2022 MYP and sold it because we couldn’t stand how bumpy the suspension was. Was just too uncomfortable for us and I drive a daily bmw 335i and I thought that was sporty but the Y was more bumpy.

Wish the handling was better, for that I still like my 20+ yr old 350Z even though it is much slower than my MYP.

I just traded my MYP in for a Plaid. Great car. Super functional but u agree. The handling for a car with 21 inch wheels was average at best, and the seats don't provide enough support. I'd say I was getting 230ish range wise. Great car though

Hello, I know this is a Model Y review, you also own a Model S. Which one do you like better as a daily driver?

I would have liked to watch you remove the trailer hitch cover and to see behind it.

Question. I know u can open the rear hatch from the Tesla app. But can you actually close the hatch with the app as well? I'm in a wheelchair and I'm worried that I might not be able to reach high enough on the hatch to push any button that would be normally pressed to close the hatch.

is 303 range a good range? Like is it enough kr do you feel you have to keep charging it more

about to press order on one of these but I'm worried about the black - how have you found it?

🤘🏼🤘🏼

Will the front windows ever get tinted? It would look amazing.

Do you recommend paint protection film?

Do you prefer the performance or the LR? The LR is higher off the ground and has more comfortable suspension, and you can buy the acceleration boost that gets 0-60 in 4.1 seconds.

Y really does look best in black.

Do you have any thoughts on the suspension? Just got mine the other day and am shocked at how bumpy the ride is. Doesn’t feel as solid or smooth as my Audi A4. Great review, thanks

👍👍👍👍

have you driven this on snow? you seem to be praising the traction control, but I'm unclear if you're fan-boy-ing it, or you've actually driven it on snow.

Did you change the tires?

FN-2187 appreciation comment.

Love your videos! But that annoying music you play at the beginning and end of your videos is way too loud.

5k miles in 6 months lol. In Texas that would be done in less than a month.

You're weary of using the frunk!?! LOL I wouldn't buy an EV without one now that I'm used to using our Model Y P's all the time...

The only problem with a 21” tire is that they are less common thus more expensive versus an 18” or 20” 🤷‍♂️

Y is the best Tesla overall-value, utility, safety, modern design/manufacturing.

13.26 someone go save that dog!

I was goin to get a Tesla. The same black one as yours. But when I heard you have to pay the taxes up front unlike other car dealers where they put your taxes in he sale I changed my mind. I’ve never heard of a car dealer doing this and I had many cars. I’ll stick to the Lexus.

Have more fun with your favorite car by upgrading your accessories. I will help you the best discount if your interested.

As a non-tesla driver, I find these headlights very annoying when driving towards them at night.

I love Tesla models, I hate they don't have run flats and no spare. lil scary traveling. fix a flat does not work with a blow out !!

Tesla 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🪄

2:00 this guy never sit on Audi I guess lol they got best HEADLIGHT

Elon, is that you?

This is the problem with these "here's my impressions after X months - reviews". They are just your opinions with no comparison to rivals. Just a few pointers...the headlights in teslas just factually are not as good as other (E.g. Audi or Volvo's new adjustable Matrix LEDs)advantage

Performance version chews up tires and they are almost $2,000 for a set...FYI.

13:26 cute =)

M Y Performance also has staggered wheels. So having tire tread even longevity after x miles will decrease, since a rotation from left to right is minimal in equaling the meat of all tires over time. If all tires were equal, moving rear to front and vice versa makes the meat of the tires more even. Also alternatively with M Y Long Range AWD: Left rear goes to right front. Right rear goes to the left front. The right front goes to left rear. Left front goes to the right rear. Again more options to even out tire meat usage on a rotation with an AWD Long Range. End of the day, tire wear will last longer as long as you keep up the rotations every 7K-8K miles. Finally another point is that you also lose the 7 seater option which gives the Long Range AWD flexibility for long road trips with friends and you have a bumpier ride since Performance has sport suspensions (At least from what I'm reading from new customer test drives on both). Reading on forums from customers who've test drove both says they can feel every crack and bump on the road on a 23 Performance model and driving a 23 Long Range feels like driving on a cloud. So it looks like all 23 Long Range Ys have the new comfort suspensions based on what I'm reading. IMO.
