10 Reasons To Buy a TESLA Model Y in 2024 (And 1 MAJOR Reason Not To)

The Tesla Model Y is the best-selling car in the world right now and when I tell people when they ask me what it's like to own a Tesla, the answer is always the same, but that's something that's just been said about the electric cars. to which when I inform them that no, that's one of all the cars they normally follow, well what's so good about it? So I thought I'd discuss 10

reason

s why you should buy a Tesla Model Y in

2024

and one really important

reason

why you should. In the end, the first reason to buy a Tesla

model

is price, which is probably the biggest deciding factor for most, starting at 43,990 for rear-wheel drive, 48,990 for long range, and 52,490 for performance.

You have different options to choose from without feeling overwhelmed by a large number of options like you may be from other manufacturers. Have you seen how many versions they make like a Corolla these days, not to mention each version also qualifies for the full $7,500 tax? credit, assuming you qualify, which is deducted from all just-mentioned prices at delivery, meaning a new

model

can be had for around $35,000, putting it in line with other SUV crossovers like the Rav 4, the Honda CRV, or the Nissan Rogue, all of which technically have a slightly cheaper MSRP, around 30,000, but have fun buying one of those for MSRP.

Some of you may know this, but if you don't, I live in the city where Toyota produces 2/3 of the Rav. 4 the others are being built in Canada and not even the people who build the cars can get them for MSRP and I mean I guess that's another reason to buy a model and this one isn't really listed but you don't have to deal with the dealer margins. and increase the price, the price that Tesla says on their website is the price you are going to pay, but back to the main topic, the tax credits are not limited to just the 7500 Federal, as some states offer an additional tax credit at the level state.

Colorado offers $55,000, so be sure to check your state incentives now while we're on the subject of cost. The next reason is the subsequent cost or maintenance cost. I recently did a video breaking down some Tesla-related hidden expenses where I broke down. from the Tesla manual, maintenance and while it's not zero as some hardcore EV fans would have you believe, it's pretty close to zero in the three years I've had my Tesla, I've rotated the tires several times and that that's all. Now the third reason to buy a model here in

2024

is its versatility with up to 76 cubic feet of cargo space or the possibility of opting for a third row for passengers with more than 300 Mi of range with the long range and a 4.80 to 60 which can be lowered to 4.3 if you opt for the boost for range and performance, want cargo room, or want an extra row, not to mention you can also get a tow hook for up to 3,500 lb. towing capacity.

I'd be surprised how many people you'll see with trailers on the back of their model. As for naming me another SUV that can do all that at that price and at the same time have access to the Tesla Supercharger Network spoiler alert, you can't and while we're on the subject of the supercharging network, which is why number four to own a model and before almost all automakers knelt before Tesla's supercharger network. I always saw electric vehicle commercials from Legacy Automotive that claimed it could be charged on the largest supercharging grid in the country. network with their electric vehicles which technically is or was true because of the CCS but it didn't matter because they never worked there are over 50,000 superchargers and of the hundreds I have been on I have always been able to charge without problem within a reasonable period of time, without However, of the four or five Electrify Americas I've been to, half of them were down or half of the chargers were down or they just kind of like the whole site was down.

I've been to several thousand others. Mile Road Trips without any problems and I even have a few of them documented here on the channel that you can watch. The car tells you where to stop for how long. Automatically preconditions the battery for faster charging. Tells you when to disconnect. How busy. the charger will be if there is an open slot if there is a wait how long to wait is all you need to know it just tells you right on the screen and while yes the supercharger network is opening up to other manufacturers you will have to do that pay the highest prices compared to if you had a Tesla or you would have to buy a pass and pay a monthly fee to get the lowest prices and to be honest with you I just don't see the point that yeah there are other cool things.

There are EV SUVs coming out, but I like that you can also buy the Tesla if you're already using the supercharger network, that's just what makes the most sense to me right now, another little added reason here to buy a model and why it's for everything accessories and while you can go super crazy with things like rotating screen stands and interior RGB lighting kits, if you're just looking for the essentials, I'd recommend some mats, a screen protector and maybe some inserts. the ones I've linked below and don't forget you can use the YouTube code in caps to get 10% off your entire order of test material.

We don't want your email to give you 10% off, we're just going to give you You get 10% off as a thank you for watching the video and while the Supercharger Network leads the pack in public charging and an even bigger reason to buy a model and charging at home, yes, this is less specific of the model and and more specific of all, but if you are coming from a gasoline car, well, this includes you if you are thinking of buying a model. I still have a gas car at my house, it's the ladies every day and it's very rare that we take it when we go out together, but the other day.

We did it and to be honest I had completely forgotten about gas stations. I still know what they are and I'm still keeping up with the prices, but that whole thing about having to stop and take 5-10 minutes out of my day to just fuel up. Your car feeling was almost nostalgic to me. I had simply forgotten that this was something you had to think about regularly and stop and do once or twice a week. I wake up every day with a full tank and I know some people think that. it's actually the other way around, where fueling is super easy, you don't think about it but no it's not at all the best way I can describe, charging at home is like charging your phone, it takes you 3 seconds to plug it in and then you just forget about it , you wake up and it's ready to go.

Plus the real bonus is that it's cheap, it cost me about 6 cents per kilowatt hour to charge it at home, so just under $5 with an 82 KW battery to fully charge me and my car. I will travel my rated range for about 34 miles a year, which is 300 miles. I'm paying about a cent and a half a mile. I travel cheap at home loading and I wake up every day with a full tank without having to go out even a bit. Stopping early and getting gas or thinking about getting gas on the way home from work when you're super tired is seriously two of the biggest perks of buying a Tesla model, and like you, you don't realize how nice it is.

It's until Get It Now, this next reason is never at the top of people's priority list, but it probably should be, especially if you're going to be transporting your family around the five-star safety rating across the board. , the Y model is one of the safest, if not the most. vehicles on the planet I think we've all seen those crazy accidents where people shouldn't have left because they were in a model y or just any Tesla in fact they all have excellent safety ratings if you haven't read I highly recommend you check it out beams, but some key points are the crumple zone at the front and rear.

It has the world's largest fortified battery pack and a low center of gravity leading to the lowest rollover. The risk of any SUV is only 7.9%, and when I heard that I thought it was wrong because I have never seen a model Y roll over. I've never seen a Model X roll over. I think I had seen a Tesla upside down. Like maybe you'll never see these cars rolling anymore all these software related safety features and the craziest part is that while Tesla advertises the safety rating it's never like the Forefront the car has so many things going for it Please that it is one of the safest cars on the road is just a bonus, now what comes after safety, well in my head safety and model and once again they have you covered.

You shouldn't be driving in today's world without a dash cam, but it's the only problem. Okay all dash cams suck all dash cams besides the Tesla built in i.e you have six cameras running at once recording everything everywhere you go when you are parked you can see them live you are always covered in the best way. The dash cam is the one that is always recording. I can't tell you how many times I've seen posts from people thanking and praising the Tesla camera feature for being there to prove they weren't wrong or at fault in the event of an accident, I've shown people images in sentinel mode. directly into my car or maybe just dash cam footage that I have saved and they always ask me where they can buy them, like buy the cameras to put in their cars, and I just have to link them to

tesla

.com.

I would bet that because it has become such a useful feature and owners want to be protected, all new cars within the next 10 years will come with some type of dash cam that simply automatically records from the external cameras, but for now it's just Tesla and maybe Rivan. I think they added that with a software update or something I don't really know right now. The eighth reason to buy a model and the interior. I already mentioned the cargo space, but now I'm mainly talking about the interior itself: first is the glass and for all that visibility, you have a large windshield that goes very low, allowing for an unobstructed view combined with a glass roof gigantic that provides tons of light and an excellent view for your passengers.

Every other car I drive now feels like I'm squinting and can barely see through the windshield and we've already discussed the safety rating so you know the glass is not a safety issue and secondly the minimalist interior, which I know can be subjective, but I personally love it, the less distractions there are with all these buttons, knobs and dials everywhere, the better. I'm not going to lie a few years ago, Tesla went through a huge software update that removed a lot of things in one touch. on the screen to two or three taps hidden within the settings, but SED took care of all that, but to be honest, most of the things that I really adjust frequently, like the volume of my music or, you know, skipping fast forward, rewind tracks or set autopilot speed or all on. my steering wheel so I don't even have to take my hands off the wheel, the interior is really designed to make driving the main focus, and that driving happens to be our next reason for buying a model and I always tell people that Unless you're ready to buy, don't take it for a test drive because only driving will take you there.

There's a reason why Tesla just let you take the car for a test drive and leave alone because they know the car and driving experience will sell itself instantly. torque for example, describe it as one thing but experiencing it is something totally different, it changes the rules of the game, you need to insert yourself into traffic, it's easy for someone to cut into you, it's easy, not to mention it makes you feel safer in the road, it's strange to say, but you don't need to wait for the car to start or change gears to get up and go a little faster.

It's so nice, it goes hand in hand and with instant torque, acceleration and you don't even need to get the performance. For the model to have good acceleration, you can get the long range launch with the acceleration boost and now you are half a second away from what the performance can do; however if you are going to buy a long range knowing you are going to buy the acceleration boost just go ahead and buy the performance you will benefit from if you don't consider it right now they are so close in price especially after buying the acceleration boost acceleration that you've practically just paid for for performance where acceleration is excellent.

Three years later, I still find myself doing 0-60 laps every few days just for the fun of it, and lastly, single-pedal driving takes a few trips to get used to, but once you do it, you realize how wonderful it really is. I guarantee you.If you have to drive a gasoline car after a few months, you will forget to use the brakes initially. My first time driving a gas car was about 6 or seven months after I got my Tesla and the first stop sign that I almost missed now. For our tenth and final reason to buy a model and the opposite of driving, not driving or having the car drive for you Autopilot Autopilot takes a lot of stress out of road trips and long trips.

I can drive pretty much all day on autopilot and not be completely exhausted at the end compared to not having autopilot. I usually crash after about 12 hours. Now the cool factor of "wow", the car drives itself and drives me is not really what it was when the model, you know. It first came out three or four years ago, as other automakers now have their own versions of lane keeping and speed assist, but I would still rate regular Autopilot as one of the best and easiest to use as long as the car can see. lines, it will drive for you and do it quite well, and while I personally don't think full self-driving is worth the $12,000 if you like the cutting-edge self-driving technology the car will actually take you to. from point A to point B, I like city streets, traffic lights, stop signs and all that, so you can't really get that from anyone but Tesla, like everyone else you need to be on.Roads very specific ones that are marked as default or only work on the highway, so if you want that cutting-edge, fully autonomous Tesla, it's really the only way to go, but now, for the big reason I wouldn't buy a model and at the moment. well, it is about to become obsolete just like the model 3, the model update is coming and it seems that it will follow the same launch schedule as the three available in Europe and Asia and the fourth quarter of this year and in America of the North in the first quarter of next year and almost everything that we saw that arrived in the new three will arrive in the new year, so a steering wheel with interior lighting front and rear redesigned seats new ventilated seats new wheels and it is a lot, it is getting to a point where I guess so many people were asking and so many people were just saying they weren't going to place orders until the new one came out, that Tesla sent out some kind of announcement saying that a new model and it wasn't coming North.

America this year which is funny because I think they released the new model 3 and North America on January 2nd of this year and like I said the Y will follow the three so yeah it may not come out this year, but if. It comes out 2 days after the start of the new year and well, technically it's not this year so they wouldn't lie and before you ask if any of the new features are interesting to you, I'm just waiting until the end of the quarter and even the end of the Los discounts of the year will only get better as we get closer to the update and launch, so unless you need them right now and don't care about any of the new features, I would wait and who knows, maybe you'll be waiting and then deciding on that .

You don't want the new one to end up offering you an incredible discount on inventory. Remember how crazy the discounts on the old model 3 got right before the new one came out, but yeah, let me know what you think below. Are you waiting for the new model? Do you have the Juniper codename or are you expecting bigger discounts than the current model?
