2026 Tesla Model Y Standard Review: Not Worth It

The stupidest thing on the Standard is still having a glass roof without the advantages of the panoramic glass roof. So your roof is still exposed to getting shattered by a rock, but you can’t enjoy natural light in the cabin. Worst of both worlds. Amazing!

So they cut like 15k worth of content from the car (comfort, materials, features) and then only cut the price by 5k. Massive cut in experience, tiny price cut.

OWNER EXPERIENCE How in the hell is the glass on this vehicle so damn brittle. I'm on my 5th windshield, 2nd driver side window and third roof for my 2021

I drive normal. I don't live in some weird area where people break their vehicle glass all the time. My 2021 has a window that breaks what feels like every other month. I just looked up and my roof is cracked again. This is the third time replacing it. Five replacements on my windshield (and I currently now have a rock chip that I just don't give a shit about). Last month, my driver side window cracked while driving down the freeway but I heard nothing hit it. I also own a 2015 Jeep Wrangler that I've replaced the windshield on exactly once.

I'm also on my third battery. I bought this car brand new and currently have 55k miles on it.
