I am not sure how many people here actually HAVE already took delivery of their Model Y, but if anyone HAS and can answer this very specific question, I'd appreciate it:
What is the "seat height" from the ground? In other words, if you open the door to the Model Y and measure straight up from the ground to the TOP of the seat cushion (where your bum would be), what is that measurement?
I hear people quoting ground clearance measurements in various places, but haven't seen the above measurement listed anywhere (if you have - feel free to point me there). This seat height will essentially be the combination of ground clearance + the thickness of the undercarriage/battery compartment of the Y + the 'seat riser' bracket the seat sits on and, finally, the thickness of the seat itself.
I think this is an important measurement for people to figure out how "high" they will be sitting overall for what many people consider one of the prime advantages of a crossover or mid-size SUV: a commanding view of the road.
I'd like to compare this total seat height for the Model Y with some other crossovers/SUVs that either my family or neighbors have to understand how they compare.
Thanks!
