Why do many people regret buying a Tesla Model Y? Don't just look at the pros 3 big drawbacks are hard wounds

Tesla's success shows that in the face of absolute strength, all the negative information is not worth mentioning, whether it has ever been hated, resisted, or insulted, when it appears in front of you, the afterglow of the corner of the eye can not help but look at it more.

Tesla continues to subvert the tradition, break the convention, bring a new cognitive experience, and prove its absolute dominance in the field of pure electricity with sales.

In 2021, Tesla Model Y has sold 198533 vehicles cumulatively, and the cumulative sales of the same level of Weilai ES6 are only 45,094 vehicles, which is not an order of magnitude at all, and Weilai should set a small goal first instead of benchmarking BBA - surpass Tesla

Only Song PLUS DM-i (plug-in) and ideal ONE (extender) sales exceeded the 100,000 mark, but the gap is still very large.

As a model Y with general spatial performance, rough assembly process and rough interior, it has achieved such terrible sales results, which is unimaginable in the eyes of most consumers, and can't help but sigh, what is the charm?

The secret of Tesla's success - Musk's personality + unique product charm

Elon Musk is a successful engineer and a successful businessman who has successfully packaged electric vehicles into the cars of the future and successfully brought them back into the public eye.

He is also a marketing genius, determined to enter the market from high-end electric vehicles, let Silicon Valley engineers become the first car owners, and shaped the brand image of Tesla's high-end electric vehicles.

Tesla Model 3 is very good to surpass, Model Y is very good to imitate, but Musk's personal charm and Tesla car to create a sense of technology is difficult to copy, it is also what consumers want most.

Xiaopeng P7, Weilai ES6, and Ideal ONE all have intelligent assisted driving capabilities, all of which are the main sense of technology, but without the personal charm of the brand founder, no matter how good the wine, there is no story, and it is difficult to drink.

Elon Musk has said: Tesla strives to provide every ordinary consumer with a pure electric vehicle within its consumption power range.

From the perspective of Tesla Model 3 continuous price reduction, ordinary consumers are becoming more and more likely to contact Tesla, buying electric vehicles for the first time to think of Tesla, and the models of new car-making forces are becoming more and more expensive, shaping a high-end brand image, which is destined to be difficult to have an audience.

It is said that the price of the Model Q will be more civilian, starting at about 160,000, and it will become the electric car of the benchmark Corolla.

Tesla's continuous price reduction has given consumers a sense of taking advantage, even if the price has increased, everyone not only did not complain, but also regretted that they bought late.

Dear audience, what kind of psychology is this? This is the fan mentality, just like the fruit powder of the iPhone and the rice noodles of the Xiaomi mobile phone, with an inherent fan base, even if outsiders say it is not good, it will not affect the final sales.

Fans will voluntarily promote, spontaneously recommend, this kind of subtle to the individual marketing is not available to traditional brands, and this kind of marketing is the most effective, much more convincing than overwhelming advertising.

Your friends say Tesla is good, your colleagues say Tesla is good, even your boss is Tesla good, in order to fit into the group, is it good to say that Tesla is not good?

Tesla advertising costs are almost zero, but we can see Tesla news all the time, when the product itself has the power to spread, it is itself the traffic.

Having said all this, do you think Musk is very attractive, Tesla is worth buying, since everyone has begun to move, then I began to talk about shortcomings.

When the Model 3 first came on the market, many people were dazzled, but after three years of enlarging it in equal proportions, it seems that it is not so amazing. In the eyes of most people, model Y is to pull the Model 3 up, the recognition of the two is not high.

The same exterior design, the same interior style, feel that Tesla is very radical, Model Y is very conservative, fortunately, it is classified as an SUV category, the space performance is better, more in line with the aesthetics of the Chinese.

There are likes, there are dislikes, many people regret buying model Y because of 3 major shortcomings.

The first disadvantage is that the paint is thin, easy to scratch, and the cost of later maintenance is high

Model Y has a total of 4 colors, namely deep sea blue, Chinese red, pearl white, cold light silver, pure black, the first four colors are very good, only black is called pure black, no noun modification, feel like a child held, dad does not hurt, mom does not love.

However, for readers who like black car paint, congratulations, black car paint does not increase the price, the other four colors are worth 8,000 yuan, only black does not want money, is there a feeling of earning money?

What does a saying say? Buy is not as good as the sale of fine, black car paint cheap, do not really think that they picked up cheap, the biggest drawback of this car paint is thin and soft.

A Tesla Model Y said: "It is true that the car is soft and not resistant to construction, and I used to swear that I would not stick to the car clothes when I bought the car, but I still went to paste it." Ordinary car washing, car cleaning will leave a small "sun pattern", the wife opened the car door, the co-pilot door handle has been scratched out of the nails, scared me to send the car clothes that day, it is recommended that the car be brought back to the car clothes first. ”

Not only is one car owner reflecting the thin paint of the car, we casually search for "Tesla Model Y black car paint thin" on the Internet, and many car owners will complain, indicating that the thin paint of the black car is a common disease.

The thin paint is particularly easy to scratch, and on rainy days, it is hit by muddy water and hit by small stones on the road, which will leave traces on the paint.

There are scratches in the paint, and patching paint or attaching the car clothes has become a problem for many car owners.

Tesla's official after-sales spray paint is 600-800 yuan / face, if there are scratches in many places on the body, the whole car repainting is 10,000 yuan, and it is cheaper to paint in the car beauty shop outside.

Repainting or repainting can only solve the old scratches, it is still difficult to avoid the appearance of new scratches, many car owners choose to stick to the car clothes, according to the material and brand charges, Model Y full car film price in about 1-2 million yuan.

If you choose black car paint, or just like black, although the early discount of 8,000 yuan, but the later will have to pay a greater cost to maintain the car paint, everyone should be mentally prepared before buying Model Y.

The second disadvantage is that the seat is hard, the suspension is hard, and the rear comfort is poor

The space performance of model Y is better than that of the same level of fuel vehicles, using a long-axis short suspension chassis structure, the front seating space is very spacious, the horizontal space and longitudinal space are good, and the storage space is relatively rich.

The front seats do not have leg rests, and the long legs will be more uncomfortable; with the integrated headrest, the neck will become stiff for a long time, and there is no problem with the seat space, the problem is that the seat is not designed reasonably.

The rear head space is fine, equipped with a panoramic canopy, the view is very open, there is no sense of space depression, the morning and evening sun is softer, sitting in the back row to see the scenery is very wonderful, easy to make people feel happy.

But the angle of the seat backrest is uncomfortable, and it is short and hard, suitable for people with short legs and long waists, if you have "small legs", you will feel very tired after a long ride.

The most outrageous thing is that the model Y and Model 3 seats are universal, and the model Y platform is raised on the model 3 seat, and the platform bulging under the Model Y seat is hollow.

If it is a family of three, the husband and wife sit in the front row, the child sits in the back row, but there is no problem, if you are more concerned about the back seat space, it is best to personally ride to experience it.

The front row uses double-layer laminated sound insulation glass, the rear row is single-layer glass, because the tram has no engine noise, the car is relatively quiet, in the rear row can feel the more obvious current sound, tire noise and wind noise.

Of course, don't care too much, this should be regarded as a common problem of electric vehicles, and there are the same feelings on Xiaopeng P7 and Extreme Kr 001.

Model Y's suspension tuning is both an advantage and a disadvantage, the suspension is very tough, the road sense is clear, the support is good when cornering quickly, and there is no obvious roll.

When encountering bumpy sections and speed bumps, it is more general, there will be a clear sense of bumps; in order to increase the endurance, the tire pressure is very high, and you can feel the rustle of the tires pressing on the fine sand and gravel.

The third disadvantage is that intelligent configuration requires an additional price

Tesla's biggest charm, the most charming place is the intelligent car experience, automatic assisted driving is Tesla has always been a place of interest, but the automatic assisted driving function is not all free, need to buy separately.

The enhanced version of the automatic driver assistance function requires 32,000 yuan, with automatic assisted driving navigation, automatic auxiliary lane change, automatic parking, and intelligent summoning.

Fully autonomous driving capabilities cost 64,000 yuan, more to identify traffic lights and stop signs and react to, and to automatically assist driving in urban streets.

These driving assistance functions are tesla's core competitiveness, but also the reason why Tesla has a super high valuation, the appearance, interior, motor, battery can be outsourced, these have no technical content.

Any company can build an electric car, but not any company can develop automatic assisted driving, but then again, Tesla has always been proud of the automatic assisted driving function is not standard, intelligent experience requires additional money, is not a little disappointed in the moment?

This is not as cost-effective as the ideal ONE, a model, a configuration, no mark-ups, also has intelligent driver assistance functions and full AEB functions.

However, the positioning of the two cars is completely different, there is no comparison, I thought and thought, as if I really can't find a model that benchmarks the Model Y, perhaps this is also one of the reasons for the high sales.

Write at the end

Tesla Model Y sales are so high, must have their own unique advantages, some people feel regret is also normal, there is no perfect car, only the most suitable for their own car.

Model 3 is suitable for the tide of play, but if you are a multi-family family, want to use the family, pay attention to practicality, the rear seating space and comfort is a big hard injury.

I hope that readers who want to buy a car, after seeing the shortcomings, are based on liking to buy, rather than impulsive consumption, my dream is to let everyone choose the car rationally and not follow the trend, nothing more.
