Tesla Model Y
The new Tesla Model Y changed the game in the compact electric SUV segment when it arrived in 2020. Generally unchanged for 2022, it continues to share most of its components and design with the Model 3. Of course, it’s longer, wider and taller than the sedan, with more interior room and a rear hatch providing access to the cargo area. Long Range and Performance variants are available, both with standard all-wheel drive.
