The Model Y is a stylish and roomy electric SUV with strong appeal. Of the two versions, we prefer the Long Range. It lacks the crazy acceleration of the Performance but is still pleasingly quick. It's also smoother-riding and a better value. A lack of easy smartphone integration and the lackluster interior materials are the Y's biggest drawbacks.

EV Battery Warranty
8 yrs or 100,000 milesThe federal government requires that EV batteries be warrantied for a minimum of eight years or 100,000 miles. The EV battery warranty includes replacement if your battery capacity drops below a certain percentage of the original capacity.
According to GeoTab’s data, if the observed degradation rates are maintained, the vast majority of batteries will outlast the usable life of the vehicle.
EV Tax Credits & Rebates
$7,500
Available Rebates. Restrictions apply.
Restrictions:
Under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) offers taxpayers a Clean Vehicle Tax Credit of $3,750 or $7,500 depending on model eligibility for the purchase of a new plug-in electric vehicle. Beginning January 1, 2024, Clean Vehicle Tax Credits may be initiated and approved at the point of sale at participating dealerships registered with the IRS. Dealers will be responsible for submitting Clean Vehicle Tax Credit information to the IRS. Buyers are advised to obtain a copy of an IRS "time of sale" report, confirming it was submitted successfully by the dealer. To be eligible:
A vehicle must have undergone final assembly in North America (the United States and Puerto Rico, Canada, or Mexico).
Critical mineral and battery component requirements determine credit amount.
Maximum MSRP of $55,000 for cars and $80,000 for SUVs/trucks/vans.
Income eligibility applies depending on modified adjusted gross income (AGI) and tax filing status.
EV ownership works best if you can charge (240V) at home or at work This typically means a 240V home installation, but you could also have a similar setup at your office or other places your car is already parked for several hours each day. Don't expect a regular household outlet (120V) to suffice unless you've got a plug-in hybrid, in which case overnight charging at home is feasible.
If you can’t charge at home, charging at a charging station could take at least 10x longer than at a gas station With public charging infrastructure still in its infancy, the user experience can be maddeningly inconsistent. Tesla owners tend to rave about the reliability and speed of the company's proprietary Supercharger stations, but rival DC fast options have thus far been plagued by technical issues and overcrowding. It's an evolving landscape and our best advice is to do your research on the available options for the EV you want to buy.
Adding a 240V home charging system could cost up to $1,600 or more If your existing electrical service can handle the additional demands of EV charging, you may be able to add Level 2 charging at home for less than a grand, including installation. But your costs will multiply if you need to upgrade your electrical panel or add a dedicated circuit.
Though the Model Y is the current benchmark in its class, competitors from legacy automakers are quickly catching up. The rumored Model Y refresh (codenamed Juniper) is still just that at the moment: a rumor. The Model 3 sedan — closely related to the Model Y — was recently updated with revised styling, an updated interior and some tweaks to the tech. We wouldn't be surprised if the updates make their way to the Model Y, but it's looking more and more like Juniper will have to wait for 2025.
Even without the updates, the Model Y is sure to maintain its dominant sales lead. Savvy EV shoppers should still look closely at the Ford Mustang Mach-E, Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6 and Volkswagen ID.4.. Check out our Expert Rating below for our test team's full report on the Model Y's real-world range, utility and more.

edmunds TESTED
The Model Y is a stylish and roomy electric SUV with strong appeal. Of the two versions, we prefer the Long Range. It lacks the crazy acceleration of the Performance but is still pleasingly quick. It's also smoother-riding and a better value. A lack of easy smartphone integration and the lackluster interior materials are the Y's biggest drawbacks.
How does the Model Y drive? Acceleration isn't a weak point. During Edmunds' testing, the Model Y Long Range needed just 4.8 seconds to reach 60 mph from a standstill. And despite being equipped with all-season tires, which are typically designed more for wear resistance than road grip, our test vehicle managed a very impressive stopping distance from 60 mph of just 112 feet. Both of those numbers are better than we expected and impressive for the EV segment.
Steering and handling are also laudable despite the Model Y's heavy weight. The steering feels light and is quick to respond to inputs, giving you a sense of control and connection through a corner. There's minimal body roll too, especially for an SUV. In-town drivability is excellent. Seasoned EV drivers will appreciate the adjustable regenerative braking that allows you to drive nearly exclusively using just the right pedal.
Comfort
8.0/10
How comfortable is the Model Y? The Model Y's cabin provides good comfort in some areas and disappoints in others. The seats are well padded and provide ample support and the seat heaters warm quickly. But the synthetic leather upholstery doesn't breathe particularly well and can feel stifling in hot weather. The climate control, like everything else, is touchscreen-operated. It can cool and heat the cabin well, but it has to work extra hard if the sun is out and beaming through the Y's expansive glass roof. You can remotely precondition the cabin before you get in, which is convenient.
The Long Range model is a huge step up in ride quality over the Performance model. The ride of the Long Range is much more livable (especially on the 18-inch wheels), though we still wouldn't call it plush. Smaller bumps and cracks tend to make their way into the cabin. That said, the Model Y does a commendable job of filtering out wind and ambient noise, creating a pretty serene cabin experience.
How’s the interior? The Model Y's cabin is spacious, with lots of headroom and legroom for all occupants. Getting in and out is easy thanks to the wide-opening doors, tall roof and low step-over height. The Model Y's available third-row seat is cramped but does add seven-passenger capability should you need it in a pinch.
Alas, the large touchscreen, while it looks cool and modern, is the Y's single gateway to controlling nearly everything. There's a learning curve to using the controls, and the system is generally distracting to use while driving. Another issue: If the touchscreen flakes out, you lose the majority of access to the Model Y's controls.
Forward visibility is impressive thanks to the tall and wide windshield and short hood. There's only a bit of obstruction from the large front windshield pillars when you're making turns. Rear visibility, however, is like what you get in a sport coupe. The slim rear window and high rear beltline greatly restrict what you can see out of the back.
Technology
7.5/10
How’s the tech? There are significant pros and cons when it comes to the Model Y's technology features. The big center screen is easy to see and has crisp-looking graphics. The navigation system, which is Google-based, is also clear and easy to read. But the system can be slow to update in spotty service areas, leaving you temporarily mapless. The sound quality from the 14-speaker audio system is immersive.
The biggest downside is the lack of Apple CarPlay or Android Auto smartphone integration. Bluetooth is the only way to connect your phone, and it's a poor substitute compared with the more feature-packed capability of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The Model Y's advanced driver aids perform great in stop-and-go traffic, but they have proved slightly annoying at highway speeds or along roads with parked cars. We've experienced a number of false alarms with the system riding too close to another car on the highway or mistaking a parked vehicle on the shoulder for a stopped vehicle in our lane, making for a rude awakening for the car behind us. Few competitor vehicle systems share these issues.
On the upside, you'll have access to an internet browser that allows you to do stuff like watch Netflix or scroll through YouTube videos — while parked, of course, and provided you're up-to-date on your Tesla data plan. One of the greatest innovations from Tesla is constant over-the-air updates that can add features and system optimizations.
Storage
8.0/10
How’s the storage? The Model Y's cargo space is massive. Tesla cites 68 cubic feet of maximum capacity, though it's unclear whether that number includes the front trunk. The rear seats don't fold entirely flat, but there's a wide opening and an easy load-in height. The removable cargo floor provides even more rear storage underneath. The center console has a sliding bin cover and sueded smartphone charging spaces.
Child safety seat accommodation is average for an SUV of this size. There's sufficient space for even the largest of child seats. The lower car seat anchors, however, have small access points and are hard to loop through. The top tether points are on the lower side of the rear seats and can be hard to reach.
Range and Efficiency
8.0/10
How are the range and efficiency? [Editor's note: The following relates to the 2021 Model Y Long Range, which is what we most recently tested. EPA range and efficiency estimates have changed slightly since then, but our general takeaways still apply.] The EPA estimates the Model Y Long Range has a maximum range of 326 miles and uses 27 kWh of electricity for every 100 miles of driving, making it the next most efficient luxury EV behind the Tesla Model 3. Both are very impressive for an electric SUV.
In Edmunds' real-world testing of the 2021 Model Y Long Range, we observed a total range of 317 miles at a consumption rate of 26.2 kWh/100 miles running in the max-range battery mode, which charges the battery to full capacity. This mode is not recommended for daily use and should be reserved for longer trips. While the Model Y didn't quite match its range estimate in our test, its 300-plus-mile range is more than sufficient for most people as long as you're driving conservatively.
One big advantage to the Model Y is access to Tesla's proprietary Supercharger network. It provides trustworthy and reasonably priced recharging that comes in handy when you need a bunch of range quickly (such as on road trips).
Value
8.0/10
Is the Model Y a good value? The Model Y Long Range model is less expensive than the Performance but still well into luxury SUV pricing territory. Is it worth it? The appeal of the Model Y depends on what you value. If it's speed and space for its size, the Model Y is a relative bargain compared to other luxury electric SUVs. But if interior design and comfort features are priorities, the Model Y is slightly disappointing.
In terms of warranties, the Y's is a bit below average for a luxury SUV but comparable to coverage for a luxury EV. You get four years/50,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper coverage and roadside assistance. Tesla covers the battery for eight years/120,000 miles and guarantees 70% retention of the battery life over that period.
Wildcard
9.0/10
The Model Y Long Range may lack the theatrics of the Performance model, but it's properly quick and provides a similar level of fun behind the wheel. Pair that with a better ride quality and we think the Long Range is the preferred model of the two. It checks off the "fun-to-drive" boxes with fewer compromises to comfort. The Y's sleek stance also makes it good to look at, and you can still get the big wheels to give it some Performance model flair.
Which Model Y does Edmunds recommend?
We suggest going with the Long Range model since it offers plenty of battery range and more than enough performance for most. It will also save you a few thousand over the Model Y Performance, which is a blast to drive but has a stiffer ride and less range.
Tesla Model Y models
The 2024 Tesla Model Y is a fully electric small crossover SUV. It comes in three trims: Standard, Long Range and Performance. There's standard seating for five, but Long Range models have an optional third row that raises seating capacity to seven. Keep reading for our breakdown of the Model Y's features and options.

Enhanced Autopilot (upgrades Autopilot with navigation-following and automatic lane changes, a semi-automated parking system and Smart Summon, which will drive the vehicle to your chosen location)
Full Self-Driving Capability (Tesla promises this feature will support fully automated driving, but so far the rollout of the Model Y's self-driving capability has been problematic and its future remains uncertain.)
2023 Tesla Model Y Long Range 4dr SUV AWD (electric DD)
$51,500 less $9,500 Federal & NY State tax credits = $42,000 for Tesla 2023 Model Y AWD Dual Motor Long Range
Drove 250 miles NY to DC - Autopilot did most of the driving and charged 190 miles in 20 minutes at NJ Turnpike rest stop. Tesla shows you each Supercharger available on your trip and how many stalls are available at any time.
Quiet, fast, and incredibly roomy. Controls are … intuitive.
Charge at home after midnight and receive a check back each month for $0.10 for each kWh (NY is $0.27/kWh). Use about $90/month in electricity for about 1000 miles and get back about $35.
Roomy. Fun Drive. Meh Build Q, Charmless Tesla.

Richard, 02/15/2023
2023 Tesla Model Y Long Range 4dr SUV AWD (electric DD)
Bought my 2021 Model Y just after the height of Covid. Purchase procedure was charmless. Do not forget to bring your smart phone because they will not let you have the car without you acknowledging the purchase using YOUR phone. Customer next to me picked up their Tesla and one of their doors would not unlock. Mine had slightly misaligned doors, but they functioned correctly. They give … you 10 days to report any initial problems. LOL. Do they not have their own QC department?
Overall, build and material quality are OK, but definitely sub-par for the luxury segment. I have ongoing problems with trapped moisture obscuring my cameras after rain storms. Had one camera replaced, but replacement also not sealed. Oversized/uneven gaps between some body panels, and one door edge has a sharp point where the metal bends. Road noise and cabin vibration is OK, not great. Our Volvo S60 was almost 20K cheaper and has better materials, seat comfort, noise isolation, and build tolerances. Rear speakers are mounted to the inside hatch door, so sound quality is crippled when trunk is filled with bags/luggage. Lastly, and most importantly, my battery range has dwindled to less than 85% in two years.
I was not impressed with my customer experience a Tesla. Nothing too negative, just a total lack of personal connection from Tesla. No one explained anything about the car to me or called to see how the purchase went or how my car is doing. Tesla just deducts money from my bank account every month and sends me an email receipt. The upside is that picking up the car took about 30 minutes instead of 3 hours since the financials are all worked out ahead of time.
Now for the positives: Fast dual engine. Acceleration is super smooth. Cabin is very roomy. Storage ample. Sound system is very good (though the interface needs improvement). Car feels fairly nimble. Great inch-by-inch control when backing into tight spaces or sloped roads/driveways. Poor visibility though rear window made up for with great visibility using rear and side cameras. Supercharger network is fairly extensive in CA, and works well, but I mostly charge from home. The Infotainment system has a lot of features and supported services (Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal, Tune-In, et cetera), even though using the complex interface is too distracting while driving. This car needs more buttons and less screen swiping. Voice recognition for phone and navigation system (addresses) actually quite decent.
Best car I’ve ever owned
5 out of 5 stars
Jackson , 01/19/2023
2023 Tesla Model Y Long Range 4dr SUV AWD (electric DD)
I’ve owned expensive German gas cars, even finely-tuned race versions that cost extra. They drive like junk compared to electric and nobody does electric anywhere near as well as Tesla. Every other car available is 5-10 year behind in Software (both UI/UX and OTA updates/fixes), efficiency, ADAS (ignore the media, Autopilot is unbelievable and free with purchase), Safety (Tesla data and … government data both show they are the safest cars on the road), charging network (both supercharger and onboard routing unmatched in industry - it is the only EV you really can road trip)… now for the fun part. Driving a Tesla is fun. It handles like a dream, is quiet and the acceleration is unbelievable. In traffic or cities, the car’s instant torque puts you wherever you want to be right away.
After the latest price drops (Jan 2023), with the edition of eligibility for the IRA tax credit ($7500), nobody can compete on price. It is a screaming deal. The best part about buying EV and specifically Tesla (bc of price reductions) is the cost savings. A “full tank”, chargin at home costs me about $8. I took an 1100 mile road trip from Texas to to Virginia for about $60 using Superchargers and Autopilot. It is the not way to road trip. With at home charging, you wake up every morning with a “full tank”. Who needs more than 300 miles per day? I know a few, but those are edge cases and just stop at a supercharger for 15 minutes then… most stops at a supercharger are about 15-30 minutes. Stretch, bathroom, snack, back on the road.
We have 2 cars in our household and both are Teslas (a Y and 3). Over 5 years, with tax credits and fuel/maintenance savings, we have saved about $50,000 by switching to electric. The only maintenance required has been wiper blades, tires, cabin filter (it’s a HEPA btw!) and windshield fluid. For some minor repairs we needed, covered under warranty, Tesla mobile service came to our house and made the fixes. Love Tesla mobile service! Also, never visit a dealership or gas station again… good riddance to both!
The Model Y has a ton of space, frunk, trunk, sub trunk, legroom, headroom all great! Seats are comfy, interior is minimal and beautifully designed. The center screen is perfect and the user interface is WAY ahead the “competition”.
Don’t be fooled by marketing or negative media coverage, nobody makes a car, let alone an EV that matches Tesla. They are the market leaders for a reason. This is my fifth Tesla and I will only buy Tesla for the foreseeable future. Maybe one day there will be proper competition, but not today.
Model Y is almost perfect.

2023 Tesla Model Y Long Range 4dr SUV AWD (electric DD)
After reading about the quality issues, I was hesitant to purchase a Tesla. When taking delivery I took a long list of about 50 items to check. I could only find 2 issues-the lower ppf was not installed and the trunk needed minor adjusting. Tesla fixed it in a 30 minute appointment and couldn't be more accommodating. The car has been a joy to drive. I would buy another in a heartbeat. … Between the safety and security, which ranks #1 in my book, the software is like no other car out there. Tesla is a few years ahead of the pack. The OTA updates come often and the car just keeps getting better than the first day I purchased it.
We have a limited number of reviews for the 2024 Tesla Model Y, so we've included reviews for other years of the Model Y since its last redesign.
Chevy Blazer EV vs. Tesla Model Y vs. Hyundai Ioniq 5 | Electric SUV Comparison Test
NOTE: This video is about the 2023 Tesla Model Y, but since the 2024 Tesla Model Y is part of the same generation, our earlier analysis still applies.
The 2024 Chevy Blazer EV is the newcomer on the block of midsize electric SUVs, entering an increasingly crowded and competitive segment. But does it have what it takes to succeed against popular choices like the Tesla Model Y or Hyundai Ioniq 5? Find out with Edmunds’ Clint Simone in… this electric SUV comparison test!
The ID.4 is Volkswagen's first all-electric SUV. It's close in size to the Tiguan small crossover but benefits from a more spacious interior. The ID.4 undercuts the Tesla slightly on price, but the VW doesn't come as well equipped. The Model Y has more range and more power, but the ID.4 offers a smoother ride and standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, two features that are sorely missed on the Tesla. Read our long-term test of the Volkswagen ID.4 to see how we liked living with it.
Ford's Mach-E is quick and agile yet delivers a comfortable ride. On paper, the Model Y has the better range estimate, but in reality they're much closer. On our real-world tests, the Mach-E exceeded its EPA estimate while the Model Y fell short by a few miles. The Mach-E has a lower starting price than the Model Y, but the pricing for dual-motor versions is pretty similar. The Model Y Performance is actually less expensive than the Mach-E GT.
The Tesla Model Y is relatively sleek for an SUV, but it's tame in comparison to the low-slung Kia EV6. Kia's first EV SUV features sharp styling and is shockingly fun to drive. It's rated at up to 310 miles of range, but in our real-world testing an EV6 with the smaller battery failed to meet its EPA rating. The EV6 has a lower starting price than the Model Y and has one of the best powertrain warranties in the business: 10 years/100,000 miles, which includes the battery.
The Model Y is Tesla's compact crossover SUV. It was one of the first fully electric compact crossovers to hit the market, and it is essentially the standard by which all other entrants in the segment are judged, and for good reason. It's spacious and relatively comfortable, it comes with plenty of range, and it's packed with a ton of features (some useful and some bordering on gimmickry) that Tesla owners love.
We don't expect much to change for the Model Y for 2024. We expect it to be offered in at least its Long Range and Performance trim levels. Thanks to Tesla's recent ramp-up in production, we could see the return of a single-motor rear-wheel-drive Model Y at a lower price. However, Tesla has always struggled to both meet consumer demand and deliver more than one or two variants on each of its models, so we aren't holding our breath. Even so, the Model Y remains a top option in our rankings, though new rivals including the Ioniq 5 and BMW iX are heightening the competition.
Edmunds says
Even with competition getting ever stiffer, the Model Y still has what it takes to compete with the best the rest of the industry has to offer.
