Model Y Ground Clearance?
2 Answers
The ground clearance of Model Y is 150 millimeters. Here are the specific details: Configuration: The Model Y has a slightly shorter range than the Model-3, offering both single-motor rear-wheel drive and dual-motor all-wheel drive options, with a ternary lithium-ion battery. Acceleration Performance: The standard range model accelerates from 0-96km/h in 5.9 seconds, with a top speed of 193km/h; the long-range rear-wheel drive model accelerates from 0-96km/h in 5.5 seconds, with a top speed of 209km/h; the dual-motor all-wheel drive model accelerates from 0-96km/h in 4.8 seconds, with a top speed of 217km/h.
I've been driving the Model Y for over half a year now, and I really understand the ground clearance issue. Officially it's 167mm, which is perfectly adequate in the city – I've barely scraped the bottom over speed bumps. But last time I went camping on a gravel road with the trunk fully loaded, I clearly felt the car body sink, leaving only three fingers' space between the wheel arches and tires. If you frequently drive on rough roads, I'd recommend either opting for the Performance version or installing an air suspension kit later. Some owners in our car club have modified theirs to gain about 4cm of lift, making it much easier to climb curbs. In real-world experience, tire pressure also plays a crucial role – when adjusted to 2.9Bar in summer, the car's off-road capability feels noticeably better than with winter's 2.6Bar.
