new Model Y video discovered!

[Keith909man]

came across this video on youtube with almost no views of a walk around of the Model Y on display.

You can kind of see a third row of seats?? To date I don’t think anyone has a clear image or video of how they pull off a third row in this car.

Those third row seats are funny.

Wow looks really nice in blue.

 

[mgraff]

Thanks for posting, this is the exact color I pre-ordered so super excited to see it in video.

 

[ACDriveMotor]

Agree, this looks nice. Though it is hard to imagine how those seats work. Set down low?

Thanks for posting and love the size of the Model Y!

The 3rd row looks really close to the 2nd. Maybe this is a 5 +2 like the S?

The 3rd row is for kids, just like the Model S rear facing seats. This is not a car for large families, but makes a great option for those with small kids with the added ability to carry a couple of their friends.

Why do people keep harping on the 3rd row? They are designed for kids. Put down the chew toy.

like a 911 back seats...

The fore-aft space between the 3rd row seat back and 2nd row seat back seem even smaller than the rear of the 911. The 3rd row in my X is already small enough for kids only. The Y looks like it’ll only fit toddlers or pets.

Too funny.

Why even bother with the Y? Unless, one really wants the hatch, which is the biggest advantage over the 3 IMO. The dual motor CyberTruck is same price as LR model Y. But the CT has a bigger interior space that fits 6 and supposedly has almost twice the battery capacity.

I want to see more interior, especially the seats. Is it the improved seats of recent M3 or back to basic again

Just one reason among many is the length of the Cybertruck. In my case it won't fit in my side of the garage which is a requirement. With almost a foot of snow last night the last thing I want to deal with is cleaning snow and slush off the Cybertruck in the winter.

I agree with that situation. I’ve posted about the garage space concern in another thread. Having or wanting to park a vehicle in the garage is why the CT will mostly be purchased by current truck owners. Not that there won’t be, but I don’t see many people who are used to shorter cars and SUVs crossing into truck territory.

Interesting, it comes with Homelink! I thought they took that away in the M3.

Increased headroom, larger drunk, hatch, a little more storage in the back. Can probably hold the camping gear I need to take and either a roof rack or a hitch rack will carry my bikes.

The CT is cool, but impractical in a lot of the SoCal parking lots I frequent. I don’t haul stuff or tow. And it’s 2-3 years away.
