Tesla Y Pictures - Interior and Exterior

[BM3B]

Looks like it's less than a 2" difference.

Yes but I needed the Y to be closer to the X (58” rear hip room) and not smaller then the 3. Where did it go? It’s wider than the 3, so how can it be narrower inside? Storage? Typo I hope?

Doubt it's a typo. Maybe it comes from the shape of the car.

If you set the driver’s seat for your height, is it still comfortable behind you?

Yes, I can fit four of me easily. Head room not an issue, not spacious leg room in the back, but better than M3.

 

[SilverSmith]

@SilverSmith is the screen larger than the one on the Model 3? There were rumors that it would be 17" instead of the 15" on the M3

Screens are identical, just measured each one.

 

[SilverSmith]

Congratulations SilverSmith! They look very sharp together.

Have you noticed a difference in road noise compared to your Model 3?

Seems a bit quieter, but so subjective. Tires, speed, highway type. Road noise is one of my minor gripes with our M3.

 

[SilverSmith]

Whattttttt? So disappointed if true, I wanted the Y to fit my 3 kids across the 2nd row. What happened, how can it be smaller than my 3???

This isn't true, I just measured and the arm rest to arm rest of the second row seat is exactly 51.25" in both cars. I expected the Y to be larger, but nope.

Thanks for the intel, I can’t wait to test drive one. I will bring all my car seats lol

Your car seats might sit up above the arm rest, so maybe you can claim a few more inches, but it depends on the shape. Good luck, fun car, so similar to M3 driving experience.

Any news if the Y comes with Homelink from factory or we have to buy if for extra $300?
And....Does it have the Pedestrian Warning Spaceship Sound Effect...

Agree it’s subjective but my PY is def louder than my RWD3.

Dude I wasn’t going to go there but I just sat in my garage for 15 minutes before I figured out this was removed (my 2018 M3 and 2020 MX has it). Soooo disappointing. Still coming to grips with the fact that this $75K car can’t open the garage. Poor form, Elon!

 

[RoBoRaT]

Wow, that sux.

I bet it has the Spaceship Sound FX to remind Pedestrians that aliens are arriving, right?

well that's crappy considering it was on the feature page all the way up until about 2 weeks ago. I even have a screenshot of it.

I’ve really been dying to know how much taller the seats in the front and back are now since the seats in my 3 are too low for a comfortable long ride. Would you mind measuring the seat height from the interior floor of the car to the top of the seat (ie where your butt goes) for both front seats and back seats? Thanks!

PS would also be great to compare with same measurements for the 3

Since the height is adjustable, that depends. But here they are in the lowest position.
M3 Driver seat is 7 1/4", MY is 10 3/4". Floor to top seam of seat.

A small difference in road noise may very well be due to the tires. From SilverSmith's photos, it looks like PYD uses Pirelli P Zeros, which are quiet tires. The Michelin PS4S that comes on P3D are a bit louder according to Consumer Reports, although they're still better than average.

Thanks - so about a 3.5 inch difference?

Similar difference in the rear seats?

Thanks again!

How about the back seat? I found the 3’s back seat way too low for my 6’2” frame.

 

[icefree]

Anyone notice the Y hood doesn't have any struts (like the 3)? Should be an interesting challenge to convert that to an auto power frunk like the 3rd party kits for the 3.

Thanks for posting these pics SilverSmith!


If you get a chance, could you look behind that hitch cover and see if there is a plug for trailer light wiring? That would verify that towing is in the plans... Thanks!!!

I didn't see one, but you would likely need to tear into it to know for sure. I show a picture of the inside in a few posts.
Model Y - Hands On

Interesting tweet here re: Cargo Space: John D. on Twitter

does that include the under floor space in the back for the Y and Grand Cherokee? The Grand Cherokee has a large space under the floor as well but I don’t think that space is included in the cargo space but might be included in the Y.
