Is Model Y more spacious than Model S?
The front row legroom of the Model Y is nearly identical to the Model S, with 42. 7 inches of legroom. The Model Y has 0. 9 inches less in the second row, but this is unnoticeable to trained legs. The Model Y has more cargo space at 40. 5 inches, but this is due to its height. The Model Y maintains the performance of Tesla, with a 0-60 time of 3. 5 seconds, making it one of the fastest crossovers available and one of the fastest affordable cars overall. The Model Y’s height is a minor issue for those not comfortable in the back seat.
What is the most spacious all electric car?
The saloon offers a considerable amount of storage space, with a 745-liter boot and a 150-liter space in the front, as well as a full 1, 795-liter capacity when the rear seats are removed. This makes it an appropriate vehicle for the storage of bicycles, cardboard boxes, and suitcases.
Is the Model S or 3 bigger?
Both EVs are practical for their class, built on a dedicated platform for greater interior space. The Model S is slightly larger than the Model 3, with a taller, wider, and longer model but less ground clearance. The Model X is approximately 7 inches larger than the Model 3. The Model 3 is lighter, weighing 241 kg less, likely due to its superior energy efficiency. Although the Model S offers slightly more claimed WLTP range, it is less efficient due to its heavier weight.
Is Tesla Model S roomy?
The Tesla Model S is a hatchback with a spacious cargo area, with 26. 6 cubic feet with the seats in place and 58. 1 with the rear seats folded. Standard features include a 12. 3-inch digital gauge cluster, a 17-inch touch screen, a rear-seat 8-inch infotainment display, navigation, Wi-Fi hot spot, wireless device charging, HD Radio, satellite radio, 22-speaker audio system, Bluetooth, five USB ports, tri-zone automatic climate control, and a fixed-pane panoramic sunroof.
The infotainment system is user-friendly once acclimated to, but it has a steep learning curve due to its array of features. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are not available. The big 17-inch touchscreen is easier to navigate than the previous Model S touchscreen, but learning the menu structure takes time.
Does Model Y have more legroom than Model 3?
The Model 3 SUV has gained higher seating position and interior space, with 12-way power adjustable front heated seats on seat risers. The second row of the Model Y has three independently folding seats, providing more utility. The Model 3 has a 60/40 arrangement without a trunk pass-through. In terms of roominess, both Model 3 and Model Y are about the same in the front. However, the Model Y has 1. 7 inches more headroom and 5. 3 inches of legroom compared to the Model 3.
The Model 3 has 15 cubic feet of trunk space, while the Model Y can swallow 68 cubes of total cargo space. The Model 3 can hold 24 27x11x6-inch boxes with a volume of about 1 cubic foot. The Model Y can hold more stuff than the Model 3, but the Model 3 with rear seats has almost comparable cargo capacity. Loading stuff into the Model Y is easier due to taller doors, higher height, and hatchback layout.
The Model Y’s frunk is deeper than the Model 3’s, but the Model 3 with rear seats has almost comparable cargo capacity. The Model Y’s trunk compartment is reserved for personal items, and the Model 3’s rear seats have almost comparable cargo capacity.

📹 Tesla Model Y vs Model X (ULTIMATE Buyers Guide)
The Model Y and Model X are so different but the same in so many ways. Is the Model X worth it at almost double the cost?
In regards to the Model X, there are 3 seating options: 5, 6, or 7 seats. The 6 seat layout is actually MORE expensive than the 7 seat due to the captain-style chairs. Of course, the 5 seat option is the cheapest of the three if you’re just looking to get into a Model X at the most affordable price. The Model X will also have an adjustable air suspension for a smoother ride and you can raise or lower it to get in and out of steep driveways. So the X is larger in physical size, larger battery, air suspension, falcon-wing doors, gauge cluster behind the steering wheel, more technology like auto presenting doors that open and close, etc. These are the things to consider if the price difference is worth it to you. Oh, and Rodriguez daughter…superstar!
my only major concern for the model y 7 seater is what happens if you have older child or small adult in the back seat and the Model Y hits a big bump. How hard is that impact on the back roof/window going to be if the kid/adult bouncing hits. Also I wonder what the impact to EPA range would be for fully loaded (7 people with stuff) vs 1 person with no stuff. I am guessing that EPA tests with no stuff.
you should sit on the passenger side of the 3rd row. I couldn’t fit my feet under the seat. the rails won’t let me put my feet/shoes side by side. the driver side is “larger” because the rails are supporting the left and mid second row seats, hence it’s wider. the passenger side rails is supporting only the right side 2nd row seat. the rails are closer together. the only way to “set” my feet on the floor (while on the passenger side 3rd row seat) is either pushing the 2nd row seat forward to get more room and putting each feet on each rail. Or putting my left foot in front of the driver side 3rd row seat and my right foot in front of me. I’m not tall, 5’5″ with size 9.5 shoes. did I miss a technique in how to sit in the 3rd row?
Great article! That poor girl’s feet will pop off if they get in an accident and that seems scary to me. I get that the price is less and that is a decent option for that scenario but the helicopter windshield, extra nav screen, auto doors including front doors, air suspension, better audio system, larger space, faster acceleration, additional range, new screen in back, new ventilated seats, 6 seat option for more modern and open space cabin, and other factors definitely justify the extra cost. If you want electric and the X is not an option, and your 3rd row crew is small, this definitely could “work”. Tesla really needs to make the Cybertruck an SUV also. That would provide a large 3rd row option and the price would be quite low for the size assuming it’s a 7k-10k upgrade from the standard truck price.
It seems like none of the models are really suitable for a “taller” family. I’m 6’8″ tall with two boys 10 & 8 that are the sizes of a 14 and 12 year old, plus a new baby girl and a wife. Not even the model X sounds big enough for all of us plus luggage or bags or sports equipment. Damn. Was looking forward to getting one eventually but I guess not until they make an XL model X.
Family of six with a Sienna and model 3. At 6’6″ and using the easy entry on the 3 no one wants to sit behind even our smallest child. Also the 3’s belts in the rear are a pain with boosters. For what the X costs I would need Sienna type room in all 3 rows. Wish they would have made an X XL or something.
Well, you advertised this as 7-Seat Model Y & never showed if 7 could actually sit in the Y. This article shows barely 6 can sit in it, no way someone could sit in the other. Would love to see a article with 7 people really sitting, getting in & out. Very few families could use the 7 seat configuration in the Y if needed for 7 passengers regularly. IMO
I foresee a trade-in for you in the near future, Kim. Frankly, I’m tempted to do the same. It’s not as if I have kids to accommodate, however, so… I’m thinking I’ll hold off until the Y comes with Tesla’s new 4860 battery… and thus even more range. I really enjoyed meeting your neighbor, Christina, in this episode. Nice folks and great friends! Hope we see them with you on one of your famous weekend jaunts!
Great review this, both of these cars are great, here in the UK the model X is big on our small roads so the Y is more practical, that being said the 7 seater model Y looks really cramped in the back, fine for young kids but you would likely need to trade up to something else later on, for that family maybe a model S would have been the better solution? Seems both of you have spent so much money you can’t afford new jeans 😜 Thanks for a great review
If price were no object, the X wins easily. Elon Musk designed the S, X as flagship cars. The 3, Y are econo cars even though they cost upwards of 50K. The 3 feels remarkably like a Honda Civic, spartan and basic. The 2nd row seats in the X are lux and have room around the base for luggage and feet. There is no way anyone, even kids, will tolerate the Y third row for any amount of time- it’s claustrophobic. Whereas, in the X, the third row is roomy and the kids easily pass through to sit there without needing to fold any seats forward. Plus, the X has adjustable suspension, high for comfort and low for sportiness. The X was designed to be a supercar. Nobody mentions that the X gull wing doors allows you to stand up and not crawl to/from the car. Here’s more to consider- a used X comes close to a loaded Y. Go to the showroom to take time to find out how much more space and luxury there is in the premium products. Plus, I could never get used to the 3, Y door handles.
Girl power 😁👋🌎👍Cool 2 great electric car’s strange first time watched the obvious X Versus Y. 😁💚👋. ME LOVE GULL WING DOORS 🤯🤯🤯but the Y looks more futurist 👍🌎 wish the model 3 or S had gull wing DOORS. 😁 enjoyed perusal Thank you will keep our little all electric i3 bit longer but next will be a Tesla. 🌎😁
Just purchased an X to replace my 3, and the wife has a Y. I still think the Y is the better buy, but the X definitely has a better “feel” to it. Overall I’d say the Y feels like a mid-$40’s car, while the X feels like a high $70’s. Obviously the falcon wing door add expense, and value in limited circumstances, but I think that they’re not a justification for the excessive price. Worse still is the S. In terms of value I’d place the lineup like this: MY LR M3P MYP M3 LR M3 SR MY SR MX LR MXP MSP MS SR MX SR MS LR
At the price point and given the available features and performance, the Model Y LR is hard to beat. Having said that, there are 2023 MXs out there now, just coming off lease with low miles, for the mid-$50K range. So, if I’m gonna spend that kind of money and my choices are a brand new Model Y LR or an almost new, well maintained, low mileage Model X, I’m going with the Model X all day long. All of the extra refinement in the X definitely matters to me, and I’m in love with the falcon wing doors.
I think the ground clearnace is pretty low on Model Y. Am I right? I like 8 inches or higher since I live in the snowbelt. I also sort of hate the fact that they didn’t make it look like an SUV but a bloated car especially the Model X. I like the SUV proportions of Rivian but then I’m not a fan of the cartoonish LED bars on the front and back of the vehicle. Why not style EVs like normal vehicles? The weird styling quirks aside from the less mature battery technology at least in the US holds me back on buying one. The price proposition is not there either as an actual EV SUV is going into luxury car territory. Upscale regular and reliable models are totally fine for me. It is a pity that we won’t collaborate with China on battery tech in the future due to our Cold War.
Hey Chris, I just got a Model Y LR about a month ago and was wondering if there’s a place to submit recommendations to Tesla? You know how it shows your car when you place it in park on the screen, and you can click Frunk, Trunk, Charging port and Lock/Unlock? I wish they could add an option for the Glove Box between the Frunk and Roof. There are a number of times I’d try to get to the glove box, and think if someone gets in an accident or pulled over by the police… you might be a bit frazzled and don’t want to step through the process or use the voice option? Just seems like there’s room to add it, and since the item exists already it’s just a shortcut update to the main (just parked) car screen. Love your articles, glad I found your website!
I have a new Model X and it is best car I have ever owned. Our last SUV was a Mercedes GLS 450, and the X is a much better vehicle in almost every way. The only thing I might do differently in the future is buy a five seater. Our six seater is really nice but you can’t fold the second row down when you need maximum cargo space.
Tesla should really up their customization levels, such as the different types of dash boards such as the wood, white, or maybe even black or carbon fiber options to choose…i like the X much more than the other models…i just really wish they had the option of selecting normal doors. I just dont like the wings. Thats my only real turn off from it. So much so i chose the Y version cuz normal doors lol but id switch if X solved this.
Had a loaner X. The glass ceiling above the falcon door was cracked, but didn’t notice it until I got curious. I mentioned this to the service center and they didn’t argue. I like X’s ride comfort, though the X’s weight takes a hit on kWH/mile as compared to the Y and 3 resulting in longer charging times and higher energy costs.
I have a Nissan 350z and since getting a much better job I’ve been debating between a model X and y I’ve driven MANY other cars and really liked other cars like the Lexus LS, and macan.. mainly how quiet they were, smooth ride, more space(not hard to beat a 350z) and get up and go.(I’m not a speed demon but like to be able to pass quickly if needed).. I think I’m leaning the model X more
I own the MYP 2022, and I was thinking of getting the 2023 X since, as of today, I can get it for about $83k. Which is what I paid for my MYP in March 2022 (high peak price). Still haven’t decided, but I think I am leaning to keep the MYP. No issues, and it’s nibble and fits in many places for parking, etc.
Oh guys, after 4 years of owning my 2018 Model X, the biggest issue I’ve faced is an unexpected one: I’ve lost interest in exploring other SUVs or electric vehicles, even other Tesla models including the Cybertruck. The seven-seater configuration with foldable seats has been perfect for camping trips with my wife, working or playing games from the third-row seat #6, using the folded second row as a makeshift desk for my laptop, or simply cruising around the neighborhood. The elevated ride height of 22cm genuinely sets it apart. The drawbacks are minimal – slightly higher consumption and the need to keep an eye on the air suspension and steering rack due to the vehicle’s considerable weight.
Giga fail on 2-row seating. If your car has only two rows, but comes in a three row as well, then if you buy the two row, you should be able to slide the second row WAY the hail back for limousine leg room. It’s absurd that a lexus or mercedes can give you limo back seat space and Tesluh can’t. When I owned a 3-row minivan, I took the middle row out so people in back could stretch out 7 feet if they wanted. e-lawn is an a whole. And yes, whineys, I have a model Y Performance, just ordered a Model X, and have several milly in Tessy stock. E-lawn is still an a whole for obviously stew pid seating design
Model X truly is a technical tour of force. But like all things more complicated, more to go wrong too. Personally, as an old fuddyduddy who drove a 56 VW convertible that lacked basic necessities such as heat, horsepower, sufficient headlights, a horn that could be heard, power windows, AC, automatic transmission, air bags, sound proofing, power steering or brakes, heated seats or a heated steering wheel (at least it has an old-fashioned steering wheel and turn signal levers, hmm?), and it rode on bias ply tires… I think the Model Y is a better value in the long run.
Chris, when did you buy your 2022 Model Y? Before November? Aren’t you pissed about the $17k price drop ($15k in Dec 22, and $2k this April23)Musk killed existing owners values and resale! I have a 2022 MYLR with FSD I bought in June 22 for $73k and put $4k in accessories and PPF/Tinting (plus CA Tax and DMV Reg) and it’s barely worth $68k now!
My doors didn’t want to shut so I had to go three times to the dealership and they have problems shutting when you are on an incline? That was hopefully a joke. If my car had a problem like that it would be in a junkyard or sold that day. I want a car not a headache. My Honda is now 13 years old and haven’t had a single problem ever. Not a single thing worked improperly or had to be fixed. Not one. And it costed four times less. I’m planning to buy a Tesla but this sounds like a nightmare. Is there a model that doesn’t have this falling apart nightmare low quality crap issues?
