Tesla Model 3 vs Tesla Model Y - Which Should You Get?

If you're a soccer mom, get the Y. If you're a rich soccer mom, get the X. If you want a sexy car, get the 3. If you're rich and want an even sexier car, get the S!

Alex and Travis, I salute the camera operator. There was more panning in this video than in a typical month's production.😁

As an owner of both, Model Y is the way to go. The extra space makes such a quality of life improvement.

I want the faster 0-60 of the model 3 but I love the fact that I could sleep comfortably in the back of a Model Y while camping

My 2023 rwd m3 is way softer than the original model 3. I don't have any regrets of going with a sedan. Point A - B car and a great charging network and second car for the family. Compliments our van perfectly for everyday use. Bye-bye gas station!

You men both make a great team to comment on all phases of the Model 3 and Y. Really excellent review. Thank you as your comments are of value for a decision to purchase.

Big point the biodefence filter is what nailed my purchase of the model Y, especially here in BC with all that forest fire smoke during the warmer months! Everyone was hoping the refreshed model 3 would have it but such is not the case!

the higher front seat helps a lot as you age.

The Camry/Accord comparison is interesting given that the cabin dimensions (& exterior dimensions) of the Model 3 are almost identical to compacts like the Civic, Elantra, and Jetta.

At the current pricing, a Model Y dual motor is cheaper than a Model 3 dual motor. Plus, I wanted steering wheel stalks with easier entry/exit. Picked up my '24 Model Y dual motor a few weeks ago. Love it!

I bought my Tesla 3 2 months ago. Its my first car and I love it. Its the perfect size for me. While there are a few features I would like in the Y it wasnt worth the price difference for me of 7,500 at the time. Its super easy to charge and I dont even charge at home so it will only get easier once I get a house.

Great video! I really liked the follow cam showing at the same time as the cabin discussion cam. What would be incredible is if you had a backseat passenger cam in the upper left. All angles covered. Keep it up!

Tire sizes affect range. Look for one with 18's.

Great vid! Thank you! I am on cross road between two and your comparison is one of the few not biased towards one or the other but real things in each of the two.

Another difference between the Y and the 3 is the Y has a 40/20/40 split rear seat, the 3 has 60/40. That is the main reason I have a Y not a 3, although I do like the 3 more in some ways.

We love our Model 3 & Model Y, very efficient: 4 miles per kilowatt hour for the 3 and slightly less for the Y.

Yep, I have a GC Overland (got a Good deal on it) but I also own a Midsize car for driving around. I Like what Travis said at the end as to why he choose his. I would get a similar model to his when i get an EV. I am Single. No animals and dont drive far, But rarely. I dont need all the extra room.

Wow, what a useful video! Thank you! A comfort suspension option is something I'd want. One other thing that would be good to know is just how loud is it going 60 mph on the freeway with that big glass roof? I wish there was an option for a smaller "moon roof" to quiet things down (and in a place like FL, to moderate the heat!)

I’m a avid AOA watcher and I see all the EV options. At the end I chose the model 3 rwd because I narrowed my needs down to small battery efficient cars. Unfortunately, I think the EV shopper’s obsession with range is detrimental to the environment and puts less cars on the road for the same resource. Public charging is the better solution rather than having big heavy batteries. I’ve driven 18k mi around the US this year since March when I bought my model 3. Honestly with how reliable the superchargers are, I never really wished for the extra range of the LR.

I have both the 3 and Y in the performance versions. My 3 Performance is lowered on Mountain Pass Performance coil overs with Zero G wheels. The handling on the 3 is much better. The storage on the Y is key to taking the vehicle on a long trip.
