Tesla Model Y Long Range road trip to Cornwall.Tesla Model Y Standard Range is fairly new to the UK (First arrivals delivered end December 2022) so here is my first chance to review and get some handle on it's real-world range capability on a very wet and windy day in England in March!
I'll also run through any differences between this and the Long Range versions - anything different inside? Premium Audio on both? Interior space? Frunk Space?
Plus of course how is it to drive? Do I like the Real-wheel drive only version. I certainly do with the Model 3.
Is the Y quick enough with a 0-60 of 6.9 seconds? Well its slower than a lot of VE's but in the real world it's certainly fine and with effortless performance.
It's very nice, very efficient, the range is good for this size battery, the specification as standard is excellent, the cabin space brilliant. But there is that one niggle as ever with the Model Y - ride comfort.... it's ok on motorways but around town and country roads it's too firm for a non-performance variant!
Tesla should soon start shipping comfort suspension so I look forward to trying one of those soon hopefully!
If you have recently taken delivery of a Model Y Standard Range - let me know what you think of it so far!

I have a Y Long Range, and do long journeys, UK to The Alps in January and just driven across France to Spain, Barcelona onward to Menorca, supercharger network takes all the worry away, the winter alpine trip was obviously cold but we just let the car plan the route, the trip to Menorca we had 3 windsurfers on the roof rack, both trips the car is fully loaded with 2 adults and a dog, I can honestly say that I can get all the stuff we carried in our old Volvo XC90 in the Tesla, under boot is cavernous and also under front seats, day to day travel stuff in the frunk, ie dog food, overnight stop stuff. We did have very high consumption with all the kit on the roof but no stress due to the supercharger network, we probably stopped more regularly than needed but think it was 6 stops for 784 miles, absolutely love the car, very smooth and quiet, yes the suspension doesn’t like UK pot holes but in Europe roads are so much better. Down in Menorca I tow a box trailer with all the sails and 6 windsurfers, now that really hurts the range but have solar on villa roof so who cares, extremely happy with my Y, every car has things that you wish were better, but this car has exceeded my expectations, by the way French supercharger locations are really great, stopped at some great places with dog walks, shops for my wife, the car was well finished charging way before my wife returned. Super Happy

@itsbilln2178 Год назад

UK roads are so terrible now it almost doesn’t matter what you drive, or how good the ride is! Like you say, get a Model 3 or Model Y into Europe and they glide along on the smooth, well marked and mostly quiet roads over there. I intend to keep my 3 for a long time and will probably upgrade the suspension to high quality comfort coilovers at some point.

The 9 hour crossing was one thing, it was the 2 hour loading and 2 hour unloading which really grated. I'm contemplating Portsmouth to Santander and return via Le Shuttle. That way if the ferry trip really grinds, it's only one way. :)

The best feature of the Model Y/3 RWD is the LFP battery. It may only have 60kWh capacity, however it can be charged to 100% every day without worry. My Model 3 performance should only be charged to 80-90% for daily use. Within the real world,100% of 60kWh isn't much different to 80% of 80kWh (60 vs 64) for overall range. The RWD will also be slightly more-efficient than the dual motor. With hindsight, I probably should have saved £16k and gone for the base RWD model. Edit: I always try to keep my Performance within the 20-80% charge range. I consider 20% to be the red-line as I always want to have a minimum of ~50 miles in-case of emergencies. This actually gives me a "usable battery capacity" of just 60%. If I had the RWD LFP battery my usable capacity would be 80% (20 to 100). Given my specific usage, I think the RWD's smaller battery would actually give me the same, or even a slightly-longer range.

i get where you are coming from, however unless you're driving 214 miles daily, it's not really an issue. the times you need to do a trip with that sort of range, charge it to 100%, and enjoy the extra range? I would tend to think that more people buy a long range for the second motor, AWD and acceleration than just purely for the range benefits?

Another insightful video 👍🏼 I’ve had mine for 6 weeks now and I’ve averaged 258wh/mile over 1250 miles. I did a 204 mile round trip Tuesday and arrived home with 9% remaining. Need to do a 214 mile round trip this Friday for work so anticipate it being the first time I’ll need to supercharge on the motorway. I reckon I’m getting almost 220 miles full range so comparable with this video. Also pleased to hear you say the % shown on arrival is reasonably accurate. Driving home Tuesday I opted not to supercharge and it hovered around 8-11% for the journey home. I did often wonder is it suddenly going to drop a few % and I’ll be in a spot of bother.

It's worth mentioning the 2022 Model Y has the older suspension that is very firm. The 2023 MY onwards has the softer suspension

I have my Tesla M3 (2024) now for 2 months and drive only very short distances with an average of 128w/kilometer. Very cheap to run indeed! The only issue I have is that the regular radiostations do not load. Even Tesla is now searching for almost the same 2 months. And that’s very annoying!

@williammykura2342 Год назад

Ride comfort - I swapped the wheels on my Model Y Long Range for 18” rims off a Model 3. They fit straight on and ‘just’ clear the brake callipers. I fitted 255/55/18 tyres which I’m convinced give a softer ride over harsh surfaces, and have a very slightly larger diameter so give better ground clearance - ideal for an all-season tyre option or for poor road surfaces.

Seeing this owner, and so many owners in the comments, saying that the wipers are awful, it makes you laugh. Tesla need to get the basics right, e.g. indicators, wipers, lights, ride quality fitting of a family car etc... We considered one of these as the second EV in the house and had an extended test drive last weekend in a model Y and decided against it because the ride quality was laughable, and it was a 2023 Y. The other EV in our house is an EV6. We've had it 21 months now, 35,000km complete. Excellent ride quality, it does all the normal car stuff so much better than a Tesla and it has a 7 year warranty. Real world 500km range. We've had zero issues with it and the range is so long that we've only a used public chargers 4 times. Instead of improving the weaknesses Tesla has, it is making them worse by further cost cutting in the new model 3 by removing indicator stalks, imagine the mess leaving a roundabout on the third exit when the indicator button will be upside down 🙄. The likes of Kia have caught up with Tesla's strength of range and efficiency and surpassed them by building cars with ride quality fitting of a family car, build quality, warranty, dealer network, controls in the car that work seamlessly.

I’ve got a MYRWD coming on the 19th May, will be interesting to see if the suspension feels different to the car I test drove! I never had any issues with the demo car’s ride, but my old car is a lowered Honda Civic, so it would struggle to be worse than that 😂

220 miles in those conditions - so 260 should be easy enough in spring/summer dry weather

@antonoat Год назад

"Really windy, rainy, chilly, far from ideal conditions" surely though these are the conditions folks face here in the UK, perhaps it gives a helpful idea of what these cars are actually capable of in "typical" conditions! I would have thought that was the point! Just saying. Everyone I know who drives a Tesla says the suspension is harsh and too firm, even considering performance models their suspension is too harsh for public road driving where probably 99% of owners use them! Even Tesla owners need to admit their shortcomings if things are going to improve! cheers.

@aerox69x Год назад

It's all subjective, our troc does around 33 mpg it's advertised as 46.3 our model 3 long-range advertised 330 miles at launch and gets between 260 to 350 miles. I agree the suspension is harsh sub 30 mph but anything over its actually pretty normal

@gregselkirk4224 Год назад

Thanks Richard and Chris! I have had a white RWD SR Model Y in Melbourne, Australia since October 2022 and completed 12,000kms/7,500 bumpy miles at 142wH per km/227wH per mile. I see the driveaway price in Australia is at least 10% better than in the UK at AUD75,000/GBP40,000. The Tesla supercharger network here is good with reliable back-up from much cheaper non-Tesla chargers, all are CCS - no adaptors or own cords needed. With mains home charging (3 pin 240v AC, no wall box) my power cost per km - including EV registration tax - is one quarter of my other car, a diesel SUV, and worst case half using the Tesla superchargers. Service OK too. Single pedal YES. I am a very happy first-time EV owner!

I wish there was a normal cruise too, there doesn’t seem to be a way to not have traffic aware on? Maybe I’m Missing the obvious!

I can't help wondering why it has taken Tesla this long to address the firm suspension issue? I think it's almost a Henry Ford mindset - you can have any colour you want provided it's black. The Japanese and Koreans have been doing individual suspension tunes for Australian roads for over a decade now and Australian roads are... challenging. Maybe it's time for Tesla to take a leaf out of that playbook?

Travelling in wales the suspension works amazing. Fast b roads and big compressions and the m Y copes very well indeed. Add gravel on a turn and the electrical gizmos keep it going where you want. It’s a great b road fast car, a road car or motorway car. Firm around town but you need that for proper thrashing out of town. Too firm? Maybe you go to slow?

@ouethojlkjn Год назад

As ever, really enjoyed your review! My wife has a MY AWD bought MAR22 and I was able to get one myself MAR23 - the only difference, a £9k inflation adjusted cost saving!!! Performance Boost here I come woo hoo!! But seriously - maybe compared to my old M3 SR+ the ride in the MY is cossetting. I can't see what the harshness complaints are about? Maybe opt for softer tyres? (This worked wonders on a little brutal Citroen we used to have - transformed the ride from spleen shattering to bearable). I don't know if smaller rims would be allowed - Insurance companies don't like it? I had to do a 950 mile trip in Feb to the North West of Ireland and back with a ferry in between (Stena Line ferries have free onboard chargers apparently but I did not know). In a MY AWD in filthy weather conditions we could have easily made it with just two stops but in the end we opted for two outbound and two inbound. It was effortless and the ride comfort for GT work was sublime. If you are dithering just effing get one! Its an absolute bargain with the price "rebalancing". Either car AWS or RWD will be fantastic. By the way, I believe the ONLY difference between the two is the battery pack and the 2nd motor up front. 14 speaker stereo with active sub, hepa filter, heating steering wheel, electric boot lid, everything is the same. I agonised about getting the RWD but bottled it for the AWD. I think for the UK though, RWD is plenty enough and a cracking bargain with current pricing. The alternative like Polestar are looking soooooo pricey now.

Similar price? In my country the id3 costs more that a model 3 and the same as a model Y... What is target price for the id7?

@shanerayner4271 Год назад

I’d be very wary of VW claiming the ID7 gets 435 miles out of an 86kwh pack. That’s 197wh/m. I’d say 375 miles is more realistic.

To get 435 mile range, you'd need to either, only drive exactly the WLTP test cycle, or achieve about 5 miles per kWh for the entire total. I doubt that the former is true and if you look at the efficiency of existing VW models, they're nowhere near the required 5 miles per kWh. You won't get anything like 435 miles and you just end up paying more for electricity for lower efficiency.
