Best for: Boot space
The influential Tesla Model Y gained a significant update in 2025, receiving a design refresh and some comfort adjustments. This means it’s now an even better family car than before.
Previously, the Model Y was criticized for its lumpy, firm ride. However, with the latest version, Tesla has addressed this issue, making the ride slightly smoother and more comfortable. The new Model Y now handles sharper bumps with greater competence, enhancing the overall driving experience.
Performance-wise, the Model Y doesn’t disappoint. It is one of the more powerful cars in its class, offering impressive acceleration. The entry-level, standard-range model comes with 279bhp, while the dual-motor variant boasts 375bhp and can go from 0-62mph in just 4.8 seconds.
When it comes to range, the Model Y is among the top contenders. Standard-range models can cover 311 miles on a single charge, while long-range versions offer an impressive 387 miles of range, making it a great option for long journeys.
One of the standout features of the Model Y is its practicality. With a spacious 854-litre boot and a 117-litre front trunk (frunk), there is plenty of room for all your family’s belongings, making it a versatile and convenient choice for everyday use.
