Tesla Model Y.
What to Check Before Buying.
The Tesla Model Y has become one of the UK's best-selling electric SUVs since its 2022 arrival, offering strong performance and impressive range. Built on the same platform as the Model 3, it shares many components but adds practicality with a larger boot and optional third row. While the EV drivetrain means fewer MOT failure points than combustion cars, buyers should still scrutinise build quality, software glitches, and the condition of suspension and tyres. Earlier cars in particular have shown variable panel fit and trim issues that warrant close inspection.
