Tesla Model Y 2026
The Tesla Model Y feels smooth to drive, offers the instant torque characteristic of electric vehicles, and its suspension is tuned for comfort while still providing a confident connection to the road. The steering is light yet precise, and the cabin is remarkably quiet thanks to the EV powertrain.
Autopilot handles adaptive cruise control and lane keeping on highways, while Full Self-Driving enables automatic lane changes, recognition of stoplights and stop signs, and navigation on city streets. The self-driving technology feels advanced but is not fully autonomous. The ride is comfortable and stable, thanks to the EV’s low center-of-gravity design.
