5. Cabin. The gear selector has moved to the big screen — like a Model 3.
But they’ve kept the indicator stalk. Unlike a Model 3.
The wrapround LED strip is new. The front seats will warm and cool your back. They didn’t before. Other things.
The seat bases are longer in the back. So they’re more comfortable.
There’s a little entertainment screen to play arcade games.
The front passenger seat moves forward at the touch of a button for limo-like legroom.
6. Sound. It’s now much quieter in here which makes it feel more expensive. There's extra insulation.
Acoustic glass. Redesigned door seals. All little details that add up.
7. The boot is a smidge smaller. But you’ll never notice. I had to look it up.
The seats now fold up and down automatically, where they only folded flat before. You had to push them back up.
8. The suspension has been tweaked so it rides better. Batteries and motors are unchanged.
But improved regenerative braking tech adds more electrons.
Every version should do 300 miles-plus, with the rear-wheel drive Long Range hitting 387 miles.
There’s talk of a bigger battery nudging 500 miles.
9. Price. The standard rear-drive Model Y starts at £45k, which is £2k more than before. Not bad.
The all-singing all-wheel drive Long Range is £52k.
10. This isn’t specific to Model Y but Tesla’s Supercharger network blows everyone else out of the water.
