    At 1:29 it gives a better height profile and looks the same as the X At 5’6”. Which is the same as the Rav 4, BMW X6, CRV, Rogue, and Subaru Outback. I think it’s just a sign of the times, there are only a handful of true SUV’s ala 90’s/2000’s style (Expeditions,Tahoe’s). Then there’s a bunch of these CUV, small SUV, hatchbacks. Whatever you want to call them.

    The Y will be even worse with 3 rows. Would be smarter to just make 2 rows with more room imo. That goes for all mid-size cars. Anything less than a full-size should have 2 rows imo.

    You know the 3rd row is just an option people can choose if they want.

    It looks the same height as a Y and X. When I think SUV, I think Grand Cherokee, Explorer, Tahoe, 4-Runner, Land Rover, etc. Not those hybrid hatchback things.

    Yes. Same as Rouge. I think it's a dumb option for both so they can claim "7 passengers" when nobody in their right mind is stuffing 7 people in that car.

    Do you not see how much space is between the seats? If you were to get in a minor accident, I'm willing to bet there would be multiple leg injuries. Hell there may be leg injuries just trying to get into the damn car.

    It doesn't seem that much different than the interior of thr Rogue.

    Think I'm going to have to pull a dblplay1212 and trust th car developers since they get paid a lot of money to make cars and we don't

    Should put that to bed :cool:

    But seriously, my Lexus has zero fucking room in the back seats, probably less than the view above. I don't think people get their legs broke in IS crashes.

    I don't really get the comments, which is why I asked. Ton of smaller/crampt cars

    You don't see much difference in leg room from front row to second row? There's no chance you can ride in the Y with 3 rows and not have your legs digging into the front seat. There's literally 6-8 inches between the seats. Row 3 in the Rogue isn't much better but at least the 2nd row is decent. Anything past an 8 year old can't sit in row 3 of the Y without folding their legs up.

    Clearly underestimating the Tesla crossover game.

    Nah, it looks like a starter sized SUV like Ford ecosport or Volvo xc40.

    They should find some angles that make it look like an SUV if they are going to call it an SUV. As of now, it's a hatchback.

    It looks nothing like an xc40. The xc40 is much taller and has a classic SUV style flat roof.

    I am just laughing at the fact they created a 7 seat CUV/SUV/ whatever the fuck you wanna call it with (MOST LIKELY) less leg room than the model X in a car just about the size of a model 3.

    Yea I don’t get it. I sure as fuck wouldn’t pay 3 grand for the 7 seat option. Maybe you can adjust the seats in the 5 seat format to something decent. I’m not a Small SUV guy though but a shit load of people are :shrug:

    It'll have decent legroom with 2 rows. Squeezing 3 so you can claim 7 passengers is just dumb.

    3rd row seats in general seem pointless to me.

    It wouldn't be a selling point but I'd be fine with a 3 if the rear seats folded down, idk if they do.

    Virtually every news release callsnit a cross over SUV. I'm not sure specifically about Tesla or if that really matters.

    Or did they jsut replace the trunk space with a 3rd row and pop the roof & not change the back seat configuration

    Recall an earlier complaint was it was 75% a model 3....so probably not with that logic
     
  45. Doc Louis

    They had to have changed something with it, from one of the CNBC articles it's about 10% bigger than the model 3, and does feature "versatile seating and storage" aka back row folds down, possibly both back rows.

    So being 10% bigger sounds like they have some room for leg room

    I just don't see what the Y brings to the table. It looks just like a 3. Sure, you can add a 3rd row but it's not functional at all. It's really just a 3 with the option to add a useless 3rd row. I don't see what it adds to the lineup at all.

    It's 10% bigger but they are adding 50% more rows.

    With 2 rows, yes I assume there's a little more room than the 3.
