As Tesla continues to score high sales year after year, we can see more and more of its flagship EVs on the street. Although the Model 3 still beats its siblings in popularity, others are not falling too far behind. The Tesla Model Y, for instance, may even top the Model 3 in sales this year.

Based on the Model 3 sedan platform and inspired by the larger Model X, the Tesla Model Y is an electric compact crossover with stable performance and a sleek design. Most buyers find it easy to love due to its size, driving range, and vivid driving spirit. The estimated driving range is 303 or 318 miles, the top speed 135 and 155 mph, and the 0-60 acceleration 3.5 or 4.8 seconds (depending on the trim). The actual question here is, what's there not to like?

Well, while this is all nice, the Tesla Model Y actually does have a couple of drawbacks, just like most other machines out there, and not everyone will be ready to live with them. You can read more about these potential issues in our other articles. Today, we want to explore the Tesla Model Y's spartan interior.

Everything is sleek and simple in this electric crossover, from the seats to the infotainment system. There are no buttons and knobs, luxurious touchups, or anything else that would seem like an extra feature.

A Closer Look At The Tech Features Included In The Tesla Model Y's Spartan Interior

The Tesla Model Y's sleek interior revolves around a 15-inch touchscreen located at the center of the dashboard. The display has no physical controls whatsoever, which may take some time to get used to, but the screen is highly responsive and has impressive graphics. Over time, you may find it easier to check features with a simple tap during the rides.

Anyhow, the Tesla Model Y's infotainment system includes all those standard features you may expect from a modern EV, such as navigation, a Wi-Fi hot spot, HD Radio, Bluetooth, four USB ports, wireless charging, a 14-speaker audio system, and similar. Notably, there's no Apple Car and Android Auto connectivity, but you can use other apps such as Netflix, Hulu, and YouTube. Maybe even more importantly, you can play video games, which can come in handy during vehicle charging.

The Tesla Model Y And The Famous Autopilot System

Like all other Tesla EVs, the Model Y comes with an advanced safety system to keep you safe and sound during your travels. The standard Autopilot in the Tesla Model Y includes 360-degree rear, side, and forward-facing cameras, visual processing at up to 250 meters of range, and much more. Car detection, collision warnings, and parking assistance are in this offer.

The Enhanced Autopilot with Navigate on Autopilot, Auto Lane Change, Autopark, Summon, Smart Summon, and other advanced features is also available as an optional system. You can opt to add the Full Self-Driving Capability to your new ride as well, which is basically an advanced driver-assistance system with all the mentioned and some extra capabilities. However, keep in mind that Tesla cars are still not there yet with fully autonomous driving.
