I just picked up my Ultra Red, white interior, 20" wheel, tow hitched model Y on March 26th. I am coming from a 2018 Model 3 LR RWD. Here are some things I have noticed.
I purchased advanced autopilot as well. I really just wanted the lane change without having to stop and restart AP when driving.
The new FSD beta released just after purchase as well, nice. I have three months free.
One question: My vehicle specs show Full Self-Driving Capability currently. Is this what people with a trial see?
- Every input is heavier or requires more force on the Y. The accelerator, steering, braking and maybe even touch screen inputs(ha ha). The 3 feels light and nimble by comparison. Even with settings set the same. Not surprising going from RWD to AWD but very noticeable.
- The Y feels more planted and stable. It is faster and I even have the acceleration boost but the fast is straight line in nature. I just need to get used to the added bulk for slicing up roads and traffic but I am sure the 3 is a better tool for that activity.
- I love the hatch-back and extra room of the Y. Powered tailgate is great. Not falling into or climbing out is a plus too I guess.
- The color combo makes it much easier to find when amongst many other Teslas
- Range is close for both cars. I do 110 miles a day commuting. Model 3 Charges to 90% overnight and gets to work (55 miles) at 60% or so. Model Y charges to 85% and arrives to work at about 60% as well. I am driving at least 70mph and am often having fun accelerating and going a bit faster on the back deserted roads.
