CarTell take
We haven't driven the Model Y yet. On paper, juniper update has not been retested by ANCAP at the time of launch. The previous Model Y carried 5 stars from 2022.
Why consider it
- Supercharger network: 250 kW peak DC, mapped native, no card or app needed.
- 854 L boot plus 117 L frunk is segment-leading load space, and software stays current via over-the-air updates.
What to know
- No driver instrument cluster, drive selector now lives in the touchscreen, and the 4-year warranty trails Korean and Chinese rivals at 7 to 10 years.
Who it suits
EV first-timers, families and commuters who want the easiest EV to live with in Australia today. The Long Range AWD at $68,900 plus on-roads is the easiest pick.
