Why Tesla Model Y was the most selling EV in the US in 2022? | HighRPM

 In 2022, Tesla Model Y was the most selling EV in the United States according to the electrek.co. In fact in the list of top-selling cars in the United States by CNBC, there is only one electric vehicle and that is the Tesla Model Y with a total sales of 2,52,000 units in 2022.
Although this thing shows that, EVs will take a bit more to cement their feet in this industry it's not far away. 

Tesla is that brand that overloads its cars with features, power, and performance, and on top of all these things, the autopilot function of Tesla attracts people the most. The minimalistic design of the Tesla looks fantastic and perfectly defines the "elegant yet stylish" thing.

Why Tesla Model Y become the most selling EV in the US in 2022?

There are many reasons and some of the main reasons are listed down. 

  1. The price of Model Y

Price plays an important role in any kinda shopping over here as well. The price of the Tesla Model Y sits between Model 3 and Model S. The price is not too high not too low so its kinda on the friendly side. 

The price of the Tesla Model Y starts at $56,630 and goes all the way up to $60,630. 

   2. Design language of the Tesla Model Y

There is a blend of siblings' genes in the design lang of Model Y I'm talking about the most expensive Tesla, the Model X, and one of the sexiest Teslas, the Model S. 
The design of the Model Y shows you the traits of Model S and traits of Model X. The sexiness of Model S and the SUV element of Model X give it a great personality.
The curves and the design flow of Model Y make it a bit different from the rest of the family members.

   3. Power and performance of the Tesla Model Y

So, there are two variants of Model Y currently available in the market. One is the Performance variant and the Long Range variant.

The Performance variant comes with 75kWh lithium-ion battery dual motor AWD which produces 450hp of power and 639Nm of torque thus it touches 60mph from 0 in just 3.5 seconds with a top speed of 155mph.

Meanwhile, the Long-range variant comes with the same battery but the power figures are different, it gives you 346hp of power and 527Nm of torque, and because of this 0 to 60mph in just 4.8 seconds with a top speed of 135mph. 

The power and torque figures are very impressive which gives you great punch and zesty performance.

   4. Range and charging time of Tesla Model Y

Range and charging are the most important aspect of an EV and the Model Y range is pretty good. The Performance variant has a range of 303 miles meanwhile the Long Range variant has 330 miles of range. 
With an 11kW AC charger, this will juice up in 8 hours and 15 minutes it means leave your car in charging at night and the next morning you will end up with 100% charge. 

   5. Interior of Tesla Model Y

The Model Y is super spacious and full of practicality. The massive 15-inch infotainment system has all the features and controls thus it has a minimalistic dashboard. But there is no instrument cluster or no HUD so it takes a bit to get used to it. The rear row also offers spacious room and comfortable sitting posture. Thus, Model Y became a nice family car.

   6. Safety 

In 2022, the Euro NCAP tested the safety of the Tesla Model Y and they concluded with a report that tells you the Tesla Model Y has 97% adult occupant and 87% child occupant which is awesome.

We all know that Tesla cars are full of advanced technology and next-level features including autopilot mode. Tesla is covered with cameras and sensors all around which continuously read the surroundings and warn the driver or act automatically to avoid any kind of accident or collision.
There are 12 ultrasonic sensors accompanied by 8 cameras that help in features like, forward collision warning, automatic smart braking, side collision warning, obstacle warning, blind spot warning, lane departure warning, lane keep assist, pedestrian warning, and other such high-tech safety features. 

   7. Crazy features

It also comes with some cool or you can say crazy features like dog, mode which sets the suitable temperature for the dog; playing games in the infotainment system; Netflix & YouTube; crazy horn and the owner can customize the horn as well and there are many such features which are enough to raise your eyebrows. 

These are some of the reasons why the Tesla Model Y became the most selling EV in 2022 in the United States.........
