Aurora drives a Tesla Model Y 2023.

This is Aurora’s second electric car, she’s owned the Model Y from new and drives 5,000-10,000 miles annually. The current mileage of the car is between 0-500 miles and she achieves 280 miles from a full charge.

 

Why did you choose the Tesla Model Y?

For the tech and regular updates. In 3 weeks of ownership I’ve had 3 updates already. It’s fast, 12 cameras for self-driving, has a built-in dashcam and drives like a dream. It’s comfortable, has one pedal driving and a toy box so you can watch Netflix, YouTube or play games whilst charging!
