2022 Tesla Model Y Owner Talks About The Good And The Bad After One Year
Ryan Shaw has used his Model Y as a daily driver for a year now, which means it's time for an ownership update.
The Tesla Model Y is by far the EV maker's best-selling vehicle, and in some markets like Europe it has even become the best-selling car overall, not just in the EV category. In the U.S., the Model Y was the second best-selling vehicle overall in the first four months of this year behind the Ford F-Series, which is an outstanding feat.
But what makes the Tesla Model Y so successful? Well, as this one-year ownership review from YouTuber Ryan Shaw shows, it's a compelling package – an electric car that does everything an average owner would need a vehicle to do.
Ryan has a 2022 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD that he has been driving a lot over the past year as it's his daily driver; he doesn't say how many miles he's covered, though. His vehicle offers a real-world driving range of around 300 miles and a 0-60 mph time of 4.2 seconds – he upgraded his car with an acceleration boost he got through the referral program (normally that costs $3,000).
