2022 Tesla Model Y Trim Levels and Standard Features Explained

If you’re looking for an electric SUV, the 2022 Tesla Model Y is a fantastic option. On a full charge, the Model Y can go more than 300 miles, and a Tesla Supercharger station can give you an additional 100 miles of range in just a few minutes.

In the expanding market for crossover electric vehicles, the Tesla Model Y strikes the sweet spot. It shares a chassis and around 75% of the components with the smaller Model 3 sedan, but it also includes a rear hatch, a larger cabin, and the option for a third-row seat.

The 2022 Tesla Model Y stands out when it comes to offering a satisfying balance of room, range, and performance for an EV.

Which 2022 Tesla Model Y to Buy?

Choose the Long Range 2022 Tesla Model Y trim level, in my opinion. The majority of commuters will find its EPA-estimated range to be more than enough, and even while Tesla advises not draining the battery too much in between charges, it’s still a significant amount. Although the Model Y Performance seems like a pleasure to drive, this does not entirely account for its greater cost.
