Thursday, May 25, 2023
    Matt Danadel, the owner of two Tesla Model Ys, has shared important points to keep in mind before buying the electric SUV. In his ownership review, he has shared the lifestyle changes electric vehicle ownership demands, shedding light on the charging process, tire wear, regenerative braking, range anxiety, service, and more. 
     Danadel owns a 2022 Tesla Model Y Performance and a 2021 Model Y Long Range, both in the dual-motor, all-wheel-drive layout. The former delivers an EPA-estimated 303 miles of range and can go from 0-60 miles per hour in just 3.5 seconds. The latter can drive up to 330 miles on a full charge and accelerates from 0-60 mph in 4.8 seconds. 

    Tesla does not reveal the battery size. But rough estimates suggest that the Performance and Long Range versions might have 81.0 kilowatt-hours of battery capacity.
