If anyone is coming from a model 3, it feels like the 3 has better visibility but most of it is up in the sky and pretty useless. If you can see well enough in a 3 I expect you can see well in a Y.I went from a Chevy Traverse to the Y, and yes there is significant loss of view but it took me about a day to get used to it and start using the mirrors and the display that shows the surrounding cars. If you really need to see an expansive view out the back there’s a easy access button to show the rear camera view.
Keep in mind you can be 5'6" with very short legs and a very tall torso or 6'2" with really long legs and a short torso. I know people like to use overall height of a person when talking about headroom and legroom but I think it is somewhat flawed logic.Is the guy trying to sit upright in a reclined seat? I think I saw other videos with people that were 6 ft sitting in the back seats reclined and not having an issue. Only way to know for sure is to sit in one I guess.
Sounds literally undrivable and broken /si am 6'1'' and i just checked mine out after watching your video. It's true if the seat is reclined all the way my head touches the cross bar. If I bring the seat back up one notch it was comfortable and not an issue for me sitting normally. If you are tall you can't recline the rear seats all the way without hitting your head.
Yep, I just whent out to check myself, since I don't remember it as an issue. He definitely reclined the seat to be able to touch the beam with his head. It's a couple inches behind the head rest if the seat are up right.i am 6'1'' and i just checked mine out after watching your video.

When I test drove a Y, I thought the visibility was better than the 3. The view is smaller, but more useful. Like you said, the 3 is mostly sky.If anyone is coming from a model 3, it feels like the 3 has better visibility but most of it is up in the sky and pretty useless.

I don’t know if you noticed that giant screen in the cabin, but it makes the rear window visibility effectively a non-issue.
If you are reclined and over 6ft tall, you can feel the beam, so you'll know if you need to adjust the seat more upright. It does not even have to be fully upright, just not fully reclined.I'm more concerned what happens to rear passengers in a rear end collision. I'm hoping that the head restraint is tall enough that this is a non issue when the seat isn't fully reclined.
I doubt it will be awkward for everyone. My wife will likely love it on long drives with other people where she may be in the back seat. Not everyone is tall enough for it to be an issue. I'm sure kids, who are old enough to not need a booster, will enjoy it.While, I'm not concerned about this in any fashion at all, it certain is interesting though from a usability/design perspective. Why even allow the recline to go that far if pretty much any adult will not be able to lean back all the way without having their head resting on the beam? Most rear benches don't recline at all, so just having it recline the first 2 notches would be a big bonus, why go that extra step knowing it would be awkward.
Couldn't agree more.It's really a non-issue.
People under 6 ft tall should not have an issue. That is a large percentage of the population.Why even allow the recline to go that far if pretty much any adult will not be able to lean back all the way without having their head resting on the beam?

Also, many people that use the back seat are kids, and most kids are less than 6ft tall.
For long trips, letting the kids recline to sleep better is a nice feature.
