Tesla Model Y Electric Cars
The Tesla Model Y Electric is the latest addition to Tesla’s line-up of electric cars. This sleek and modern crossover SUV offers a spacious interior and a range of up to 326 miles, making it perfect for longer trips. With its all-electric powertrain, the Model Y Electric also produces zero emissions, which is good news for environmentally-conscious UK drivers.
In terms of size, the Model Y Electric sits between Tesla's compact Model 3 sedan and larger Model X SUV. It’s approximately the same size as other midsize luxury crossovers, such as the Audi Q5 and BMW X3, so it’s easy to drive in congested cities while offering enough space for family use or road trips.
Under the hood (or rather, beneath the floor) of the Model Y Electric is a powerful battery that powers two electric motors - one at each axle. This means that all-wheel drive comes standard on every version of this vehicle, giving UK drivers increased control over wet and slippery roads.
In terms of performance, Tesla claims that the top-of-the-line Performance model can go from 0-60 mph in just 3.5 seconds – a truly impressive feat for an electric vehicle in this class.
Onboard tech includes Autopilot - a suite of driver-assistance features - allowing UK drivers to cruise comfortably down motorways while keeping safe distances from other vehicles around them. However, it's worth noting that full self-driving capabilities are not yet legal on UK roads so caution must be taken when using these features.
Finally, let's talk about cargo space – something important for any family vehicle or frequent traveller. With up to 1,920 litres with rear seats folded down you can comfortably fit sports equipment or big boxes without any issues in addition to up to seven people with optional third-row seating (extra). And since there’s no bulky gasoline engine taking up space under the hood (or bonnet), front passengers enjoy extra storage as well.
All in all, The Tesla Model Y Electric represents a fantastic option for families who need plenty of space and want an electric car with great performance characteristics that are more than adequate in United Kingdom driving conditions.
