For the first time, I saw that Musk's electric cars aren't all hype. There are a number of reasons to buy from the company instead of one of its competitors.
The Model Y SUV I borrowed from a friend was an attractive combination of cutting-edge tech and minimalist design. The popular Y is a great choice if you can get past its flaws.
The Model Y Long Range was sporty even though it wasn't the higher priced Performance version. It leaped forward with the power of the electric car. You get an all-wheel-drive SUV that's more fun to drive than most, if you combine that with precise steering and a stiff suspension.
One of the range leaders isTesla. The EPA estimates the Model Y to travel 330 miles. The EPA range of the model I drove is more than any other EV on the market.
It's a tech-lover's paradise due to its crisp and feature-packed touchscreen.
There are games, a digital whoopee cushion, and a web browser in the vehicle. If it senses something strange, it will record the area around your car.
It's similar to how you'd get on a phone on a software update.
Some people might be repelled by the idea of relying on a digital interface for basic functions. It's understandable. If you're interested in a car that's kind of like an Apple phone on wheels, aTesla is a good choice.
It is possible to maximize interior space and make things comfortable with the help of the compactness of electric powertrains. Doing away with a transmission, engine, and gas tank will allow for more room for people.
There is a flat floor in the Model Y. The tall glass roof adds to the feeling of openness.
The Model Y has a lot of storage space before you even get to the cargo area.
The Y has more usable storage space with the back seats folded than most competitors.
The Model Y's interior is remarkably minimalist and unlike that of any other car on the road. The cabin doesn't come off as sterile.
I felt like I was driving something special because of the environment.
It's incredibly easy to charge up when you're on the go. When I showed up the vehicle had already warmed the battery to the ideal temperature for quick charging, after finding a plug in the Y's screen.
The Model Y started slurping up those sweet, sweet electrons after I hopped out. Charging with other models can involve fumbling with credit cards, phone apps, or customer service.
