The Tesla Model Y is the world’s best-selling electric vehicle and is on pace to become the best selling car period. This is my full review of our 2022 Tesla Model Y Long Range after driving it over 5,000 miles.
The Tesla Model Y comes in 3 variants: Standard Range, Long Range, and Performance. We chose the Long Range Model Y because of what I call the 5 S’s: safety, software, space, Supercharging, and superior range. Ordering a Tesla is very simple. It’s all done on their website, and when you place your order you lock in the vehicle price. We ordered our Long Range Model Y in October 2021, and the total cost was $55,440 but after the latest price increase this model now costs $70,000 after taxes.
We chose white paint, black interior, and 19" gemini wheels. All Teslas come standard with Autopilot. The Model Y is essentially just a larger SUV version of the Model 3, sharing 75% of the same parts. But the Model Y has a hatchback instead of a trunk and is wider and longer with much more storage capacity, which is one of the biggest reasons we wanted a Model Y. The touch screen & software are the same, but the 2022 Model Y UI is extremely fast & snappy as a result of the new AMD Ryzen processor. Tesla’s biggest software advantage Tesla, in my opinion, is their navigation maps & trip planner which automatically routes you to Superchargers along the way Voice commands have also gotten way better compared to when I first got my Model 3. Tesla vehicles are known to be the safest in their class, and the Model Y earned 5-star ratings and top safety picks in multiple countries.
The ride quality of this 2022 Model Y is much better than the original 1st-gen Model 3s and Model Ys. As a tall guy it’s more comfortable on long drives compared to my Model 3. The double-paned windows result in a pretty quiet and soft ride. It takes curves really well for how big the vehicle is. The suspension & handling feel great, and it’s all wheel drive so the 0-60 mph in under 5 seconds is quicker than 90% of the cars on the road that we encounter. Autopilot is the best driver assistance system available on any car in my opinion. It uses the car’s external cameras in conjunction with Tesla’s software to keep in its lane and maintain a set speed which is invaluable on long road trips.
The most important features of an electric vehicle are charging & range. This Long Range Model Y has 330 miles of estimated range. Our Model Y tends to get closer to 300 Wh/mile which means it uses slightly more energy than the EPA estimate. Possibly Tesla’s biggest advantage is its Supercharging network which includes over 35,000 fast-charging stations and is the largest global, fast charging network in the world. But 90% of the charging we do is at home, and this is the easiest & cheapest way to charge. We’re happy with our Model Y. If you value safety, space, seamless charging & software then it’s probably worth the money. We love our Model Y & plan to keep it for a long time.
