Probably not. New England here and I always use a set of dedicated snow tires.Hi all, my wife has a 2022 MYP and we have the Michelin all season tires. Will those be fine for a Michigan winter? How has your experience been?
Neither of those are optional settings on any current model of the Tesla Model Y. You can select Chill mode and this will reduce power to the front and rear drive motors. You can also engage Off-Road mode but this mode disables the traction control.You can turn on snow mode or turn down the level of regen.
I highly doubt that the majority of the Michigan drivers use all season tires that came with the car during the winter driving. As the poster above mentioned, it it will be totally fine with 21s.Neither of those are optional settings on any current model of the Tesla Model Y. You can select Chill mode and this will reduce power to the front and rear drive motors. You can also engage Off-Road mode but this mode disables the traction control.
Tesla removed the option for reduced regenerative braking. Current production Tesla Model Y vehicles as delivered do not have the factory capability for the user to select Low, only Standard regenerative braking. (There are aftermarket smart buttons you can purchase that can enable low regenerative braking.)
The real issue will be the potholes and general poor condition of the roads (not just in winter.) The low profile tires on the Performance Model Y do not stand much chance on Michigan roads in winter. For winter driving you would want 19" or 18" wheels and winter tires, else drive a different vehicle when the roads are snow covered, icy. Even then pot holes year round remain a concern with the OE 21" wheels and factory low profile tires.
There is no “snow mode” and there is no regen selection on newer vehicles.when snows a lot, people do not go out/drive. So, it should be fine. You can turn on snow mode or turn down the level of regen.
sorry. is "slip start? more appropriate?There is no “snow mode” and there is no regen selection on newer vehicles.
Slip start is not for driving. It’s for getting you out of a deep snow patch or uneven terrain if the vehicle is stuck.sorry. is "slip start? more appropriate?
so, bottom line is that anyone who drives Tesla cars during the winter months crash their cars all the time and Tesla is useless during the winter months?Slip start is not for driving. It’s for getting you out of a deep snow patch or uneven terrain if the vehicle is stuck.
Bro. I just said to get snow tires if you live in places like Vermont or Michigan.so, bottom line is that anyone who drives Tesla cars during the winter months crash their cars all the time and Tesla is useless during the winter months?
So all people in Vernon or Michigan drive with snow tires? I’m assuming most won’t.Bro. I just said to get snow tires if you live in places like Vermont or Michigan.
I’m sure you’ll be okay in Virginia. Relax.
People can choose to drive their cars with bald tires too. Doesn’t make it a good idea.So all people in Vernon or Michigan drive with snow tires? I’m assuming most won’t.
I think that depends heavily on where you live. If you live in a snowy region where roads are covered in some form of ice and/or snow basically from Dec to Apr, it takes a whopping storm to keep people off the roads. Life must go on. If you'll be driving on cold roads, snow or ice = winter tires.when snows a lot, people do not go out/drive. So, it should be fine. You can turn on snow mode or turn down the level of regen.
What did you do with your previous cars? I would do the same. The only caveat would be with the width of the tires, they would tend to ride over the snow rather than cutting through.Hi all, my wife has a 2022 MYP and we have the Michelin all season tires.
