Is the Tesla Model Y good in the snow?

[@TwilightKid]

All terrain is not made for snow and All Weather is better than All Season, but Snow Tires are the best, preferably Studded Snow Tires. Snow tires are softer rubber and actually stick to the snow and the snow sticks to the snow. You don't want the snow to be shed from the tire.

[@krystofdostal7208]

I would never risk using all season, all weathed, all whatever tires in winter. Me and generaly most of Europeans change summer and winter tires

[@Idiotsincarshere]

I've driven in snowy conditions in the US for 26 years and NEVER used snow tires. All seasons are fine.

[@mountainadventures7346]

Many of us Americans including me switch to a studded tire in winter for cars. I also own tire chains for my pickup and Peterbilt.

@@Idiotsincarshere maybe time to try real winter tires instead of telling less is fine, you don't know ;) 26 year ago there weren't all seaon tires available hahaha

[@Idiotsincarshere]

@@TheMicky12345 all season tires were invented in the 1970s 😂 but besides that we have had much less snowy winters especially the past 5 to 10 years so why would I go out and get snow tires for less snowy conditions? It doesn't seem worth the cost of me.

[@MichaelrennieG]

Crap man I was watching to see it go in the snow not talk about it

[@montybhuller1377]

Hi so the base tire 🛞 19 inch which comes with Y is it ok for snow or not just asking

[@georgewhiteman8694]

I would never recommend an all season tire for Winter use and I have done a number of Winter Driving events on Georgetown Lake with the folks at Prestige Imports and compared dedicated Winter tires vs. all season tires and there is NO COMPARISON!!!

Awesome videos man, keep up the great work. Liked and sub'd!

[@DSTESLA]

Hey guys, Can you confirm if it’s true that the tray in the center console and the botton that’s located in the front passenger seat that’s used to adjust the lower middle area in your back. no longer comes with the 2022 model Y vehicles. I took delivery on March,11,2022 for a 2022 LR AWD MODEL Y. Yesterday I told Tesla that I’m missing the tray in the center console along with the botton on the front passenger as well. My delivery center said that both no longer comes with the vehicle. Do you know if it’s true?

[@Nylonpigeon]

New subscriber here, Quick question! I’m awaiting my delivery of my model S LR (est 03/16) and live in Jeffco. What were the registration costs? Thanks! Hopefully see you on the road sometime!

[@johnthompson3643]

Whenever i go around a snowy/icy corner, my tesla model Y LR slides off the road....

[@patty1991]

YEP! 46 mm Breit 80 mm Hoch 4680 has a Graphen Kathode so its double Power by half car battery size

[@kpboix99]

Neat topics covered, looking forward to more content on the teslas.

[@squaredawayeveryday]

Thanks!

[@NotNoseBlind]

So So So So many Tesla videos out there -- some points are very accurate i live in Omaha Nebraska - some of these things change if you park outside or have the vehicle in the garage charging overnight ETC ETC

[@Nikitasdotcom]

What kind of tires does this car come with?

[@EltonMachadoongoogle]

0F or 0C ?

[@fr3238]

Living in Norway I went with the Model Y Long Range (with added Acceleration boost). The LR has a 1.5 cm (2/3") higher ground clearance which is handy. Also I have 2 sets of tires. In winter I use some proper nordic friction tires, the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3 (on 19" Geminis). These are much better than any all seasons on snow and ice. Just a little surprised that you're using all season in Colorado, is that common? I mean Colorado has winters with quite some snow and ice?

[@laurathurneau]

I drive with All Seasons in Alaska and haven't had any problems. Of course dedicated snow tires are better, but All Seasons are totally doable in Anchorage and the surrounding areas.

[@fr3238]

I find it strange that people actually use All Seasons at all (no pun intended:-). Rubber is the most important thing when it comes to safety, and All Seasons is a compromise, far from the best both in winter and summer. There can be no question that All Seasons leads to injuries and deaths that could have been prevented with proper tyres. In Norway All Seasons are legal, but generally perceived as not fit for Norwegian conditions. These videos show how much longer it takes to stop a car with All Seasons in winter, it can literally be the difference between life and death. The same applies for summer, a proper summer tire will stop much faster: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGPTfoJ6nM1pmKc kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3SUdmWbedlkgLs Stay safe! @@laurathurneau

[@3xnev]

@@laurathurneauall seasons or all terrain are worse in the summer then summer tires and worse in the winter than runter tires. Fail.

[@laurathurneau]

@@3xnev We don't ever get a true "summer" this far north... it's usually in the 60s and that is "warm" to us in Alaska. Plus, with the stock high performance All Season's that come with the Teslas... you get 95% of the summer tire performance. Michelin Pilot Sport 4 AS. To each their own, that's what most Alaskan's run year round... even for the folks running to Fairbanks and Prudhoe. I would say only about 1/5 of the Alaskan's I ask up here are running winter tires, and typically they are people who have FWD cars... and for those folks, All Seasons do not make sense.

[@3xnev]

@@laurathurneau makes sense I’m in Central Europe and summers are hot winters cold.

[@andremalcolm_studio]

Dude thank you soooo much for doing this video breakdown.

[@carholic-sz3qv]

Nope Tesla traction control is not even close to beeing between the best, have you even seen a tesla off-roading!? Nope because a 85hp fiat panda destroyed it on carwow KZbin.

[@squaredawayeveryday]

Respectfully, this is my actual experience owning the car and driving in snow. I didn't watch a KZbin video and come to this conclusion. With that said, Tesla's aren't built for off-roading, and the video from Carwow doesn't have anything to do with snow driving. Thanks for checking out the video though!

[@carholic-sz3qv]

@@squaredawayeveryday lol…. That tesla is awd so it’s supposed to perform as well on snow/gravel roads and also more difficult conditions. Subarus for example doesn’t have 300 or 400hp+ like tesla but they are very well suited for all kinds of activities.

[@carholic-sz3qv]

@@squaredawayeveryday the carwow thing was just a small mild off-road parcour where they test all kinds of cars and if a 85hp two cylinder engine car can beat a beast with over 500hp it’s quite disappointing.

[@carholic-sz3qv]

@@squaredawayeveryday I’m not against tesla but if their traction control was that good they will actually perform very well in all conditions.

[@squaredawayeveryday]

@@carholic-sz3qv You do you brotha, and I mean that in the friendliest way possible. I'm just saying the car is good in the snow. Off-roading though? Absolutely not. There's no suspension articulation, poor ground clearance, the vehicle is too heavy, it's susceptible to battery damage, a chunky all terrain tire would significantly affect range, no way to carry extra fuel, no locking differential, no place to stash a spare wheel/tire, etc. As I said before though, thanks for checking out the channel; much appreciated!

[@carholic-sz3qv]

The modelX with all its instant torque can’t even compete with a Range Rover or Mercedes gklasse
