"Tesla launched the Model Y Standard as an attempt to offer affordable electric vehicles to consumers now that the $7,500 EV tax credit is gone. We were able to spend four days with the car, and it was more than enough time to determine whether or not the car was worth the $9,000 discount compared to the Premium All-Wheel-Drive configuration, which is what I drive daily."
"Additionally, the textile seats replace those of the vegan leather that is available in the upper-level trims. I mentioned previously that I could take or leave the vegan leather for the textile seats, as they are easy to clean, quick drying, and hide oils from your skin much better than leather does. However, there comes one big sacrifice that I have been spoiled by, as the textile seats are not ventilated, so say goodbye to cooling your keister in the Summertime."
Tesla launched the Model Y Standard to offer a lower-priced electric crossover after the $7,500 EV tax credit ended. The Standard removes several Premium features: no glass roof, a sound system with roughly half the speakers, fewer acoustic-lined windows, reduced storage, and less interior functionality. Interior changes include exposed cupholders, removal of the center storage bin sliding doors, and textile seats that replace vegan leather but lack seat ventilation. Textile seats are easy to clean, quick drying, and hide skin oils better than leather. The Standard provides cost savings and suits buyers prioritizing price, though it sacrifices comfort and amenities compared to Premium AWD.
