Mountain bikes get in easily into the Y or the X if you take the false flat floor out, the bike just need a little more depth. The S has this due to the lower boot floor.

That's good to know! I've been using my son's car because of this. I'll try this. Thank you

The dog at the end was perfect exactly why I’m watching these I have three big dogs

Definitely one of the best EV channels on youtube, bonus you are from the UK. Love how you have a stable of cars you can just nip to go and try things on in tests like these.

9:26 - YES! Seeing the i3 in the background early in the video I went "oh, come on, that *HAS* to fit in the i3, I hope they try it!" Pleased to see you actually did! (I carried quite a few "surprisingly large" things in my i3 over the years before replacing it with a Mach-E.) Also, you remove the lid for some vehicles - I'd be willing to bet it would fit in the Model S with the lid removed, too.

Haven’t seen this anywhere else on KZread absolutely fantastic content. Hope your Y is back on the road and fixed mate.

Excellent video - really interesting, particularly with the bike and doggo. For bikes, the Model Y is an absolutely fantastic car (arguably one of the best on the market). The towbar upgrade will take 3 big, adult bikes with a decent carrier. Plus it has roof rack capability. So it should be able to take 5 bikes, 5 passengers, plus a load of frunk and trunk luggage for a biking trip. The Model 3 is similar, but its towbar is more weight limited and is realistically better for just 2 big bikes (plus 3 people in the rear is a bit less comfortable than the Y).

Amazing video once again. Just so amazed by the space in all 3 compared to others in their class. Finally collect my MYLR in Norway on Wednesday.

Thanks for the comparison video. It helps me a lot in visualising the space in these 3 cars. Keep up the great work!!

Excellent test and illustrates the relative capacity of each car nicely. Love how you dragged the passer by into your testing at the end - the dog was a very willing participant - unscripted and fantastic improvisation which is why your videos are so good. My daughter is moving house this weekend and has the equivalent of 20 big boxes of sh*? so it's a white van for me. My Tesla Model 3 Performance just wouldn't be up to the task.

These make for brilliant 'consumer information' videos, Richard - you always do such a great job with your comparisons...! 😎

Excellent tests! Thank you!

On the Y box test you didn’t take into account the deep glass roof on the tailgate - pretty sure that white box could have got in as the glass tailgate is designed to accommodate two human heads (for when you have a seven seat version) try it again! ;)

Brilliant work guys. I have a Model S that I use for mountain biking and I love the convenience. However, I have recently been considering also buying a Model X as i thought it would be even more roomier for carrying mountain bikes and camping. I was very surprised to see this test. Thanks for this awesome practical demonstration.

Your video made my mind up. Keep doing these. Great work

Brilliant video! Go Sash and her owner

This video is very practical. Those falcon doors are genius

I love watching your reviews of all things EV’s it’s fascinating to see the technology evolve.

Thanks for watching, and that’s a good idea. Need a willing volunteer to come with some items to test and give their verdicts. I was involved in converting one of the first Tesla in the uk to hand controls and it worked brilliantly and owner loved the access and boot space for wheelchair.

Incredible information in this video! Thanks!

Model S rules the bike challenge 🥳 Thanks for the video, so informative and why I went to you guys when purchased my S

I've been trying to work out if my 2 Golden Retrievers would fit in a Y or if I'd need to stick with my Velar when along comes Sasha :-) Test drive in a Y is now booked. Thanks so much!

Enjoyed the video because getting a bike in the back was the reason I chose the Y over the 3. When I purchased a mtb, I found the same issue. The front wheel has to come off. So glad to see the model S can take a road bike and mtb with ease

Nice video! And always funny and relaxed!! Sash…, what a superstar!!!!! 🥰 (although not a Lab, but a Retriever Richard! 😉)

Very interesting. Thanks.

Phew, I pick my Model Y up in 11 days time and now feel confident my 2 Labradors will fit in the back! Excellent real life tests 👍🤣

This is the consumer advice we crave! (and I'm not even joking..)

This is a very interesting and practical video . Thank you very much, this is very helpful

A, superb practical rEView. Good luck with the mountain biking.

I’m looking forward to getting my Y in a few weeks. Great content by the way.

As always, great video with a lot of relevant details. Sasha was the real stat of the show 👍

If your concerned about the boot lids closing onto something pull closed by hand the lift systems are designed to allow manual closing, no need to pop a glass. My Model S takes my full suspension 29er Mountain bike with both wheels on. Its a squeeze and passenger seat has to be halfway back. Bonus info the new Roadster also takes a 29er full suspension mountain bike if you remove the front wheel not bad for a Hypercar. Yes I did buy the Tesla Roadster Model as its CAD derived and yes I did mock up a copy of my mountain bike, but if you flip the rear seats down and Tesla does what it normally does and sticks to making production as prototypes yep mountain bike in the back of the Roadster. Sash is the star of the show shes beautiful and what a useful insight for dog owners, kudos to Sash and her owner.

Great review Richard. Love the addition of the dog!! Sasha was the star this time!

Best video ever thanks for working hard I love model y

the golden retriver "Sash" she was beautiful....she really like it in both the Y & X buut mostl could tel she liked the X 😊

Look forward to the trip to Devon video.

Wow really wanted something like this for size comparison! 👍

Amazing video, great info thanks guys

Great video. It’s a bit annoying the rear rakes so much as that definitely eats into the practicality on the Y and even X (think about sliding suitcases in, the rake forces them in flat)!

Good vid👍 Take-away: when you go to look at a new car, take a mountain bike, selection of boxes, and some big kids. Try-before-you-buy! Love the way your “8 year-old” had to help his own leg out of M3 @23:30… I am reminded of a time when I picked up a full height fridge freezer, still boxed, in a 2004 Honda Jazz. It did fit, the hatch-back fully closed but The driving seat was almost fully forward and my knees were up round my ears! Thankfully only a 3 mile journey but the discomfort did save me the delivery charge!

I did exactly this when testing the model 3 compared to my BMW i3. Amazed I could not fit some things in the model 3. Tried a Y better but the X is what made the difference. Then I realised I already have the perfect car for me.

How do you not have 500k subscribers! Keep up the great videos 🇭🇲

I really do like these real world tests. Total volue is something you can usually manage and estimate from pictures and it kind of is of not high value. Most car magazines use stantadized boxes of small dimensions and it just is of low value. But cube (big box), plane (flat tv, bike) etc are much better as even if you can have cube meters of volume you might not be able to fit the item because of small doors etc. One test you are missing is long and thin item. Like 5cm * 30cm * X meters also just 5cm*5cm*X meters. So thin ladder like object, or pipe.

Absolutely informative video from you guys again. A reliable source of information. I’m currently comparing a second hand X versus a Y and this certainly helped. Looking forward to the Y review. Keep up the great content. Thank you.

RS @5:05 "it'll be fine" but you did give a backward glance, a little phew and a relieved clap😂 Looks like the X is the best all round car.

great video, daily lifestyle.

In the 5 seat Tesla Model X can you fit a spare tire in the sub-compartment of the rear trunk? You need approximately 28” x 28” x 6”. Thank your video. Your practical storage tests are very useful.

Would be interesting to include car seats. Your kids at those ages would also be in car seats. So I guess the models X with long box wouldn’t work as the car seats wouldn’t fit next to each other! Useful video. Thanks!

Well done video! Are they 29 inch wheels on the mountain bike? I am wondering if The Model Y can fit the bike with the front tire off and still have a passenger in the rear?

Really useful comparison. My current nissan leaf fits a bike embarrassingly easily. And the car I want to replace is a golf estate, thich is bigger than any accessible EV on the market. A Passat is much bigger. Drives me mad. They're all massive, but all smaller than a golf inside 😂.

great video ; the model x 6 seater model has no folding, or removable, middle row seats ?

Watched for info, stayed for Sash.

For the bike and the Y, put the handle bar in towards the front seat. It does fit a men's hybrid bike.

Would love to see the Enyaq included in the box test, please

Great, because you have so many cars you can compare the various versions in one go, useful dog information as we have a M3 at present but it does not really work with my large Labradoodle, with her wedged between the kids on the back central seat. MY seems to offer the solution, mud and dogs inside the front of the car is not great.

Trunk a boot goes on your FOOT LOL

The practicality of load areas is important. There seems to be more trim and the wheel arches intrude for the full height which shouldn't be necessary. I would love to see a slighly longer Model X with standard doors and wider boot space. Also the seats should fold flat, why don't they use the old flip up/removable rear seat base method?

At 19.44, have you tried to move the bicycle’s back wheel behind the rear right (behind the driver’s seat)?

Hi! Great vid. What are the dimensions of the big box?

He did mention that - front wheel off was a yes just not filmed (having a M3 I can say the boot is deceptively huge)

I have a mountain ebike that will fit in my Y if I put the front wheel in first so that it can be turned vertical once inside where the roof is high

You load the mountain bike in via the fwd in the X. It's actually much easier than via the boot. That's how I do it.

Golf bats…..have a word man 😳👍

So bigger cars have more space - brilliant! LOL But importantly you don't need to get a Y, or X which look like a M3 / MS in a hall of mirrors at the funfair, to get a practical car. An older model S might be the way to go for us private buyers in the UK that need a bit of space

You did not mention they have no load constraints/fixing, so icebox in boot sliding around

I made my wife sit through this video and she came up with a very perceptive observation. It’s all very well for the gull wing back doors on the Model X opening in a tight space, but how does the driver get out?

Very surprised that the bike didn't fit in the Y and X. I have a Skoda Kamiq small SUV and my road bike easily fits without taking a wheel off. Granted the MTB has wider handlebars than a road bike but the bike in the video seems to have pretty narrow handlebars itself. Maybe if you turn the front wheels inwards?

Thank you for the tests. I’m deciding between 3 and Y. Could your Model Y review mention whether you feel the Y is worth the extra? Especially vs the 3 LFP (90% Y LR vs 100% 3 LFP has similar range) I test drove both back to back last weekend. The 3 is well tuned and feels great to drive. But the roof beam is bothersome for my wife who sits up to manage the kid. No hatchback is also very limiting. The Y is great in terms of space. But the drive feels unstable, it rolls more over uneven surfaces. Also ride feels harsher despite having more tire sidewall. (Both 19 inch tyres)
