The Model Y is set to join the Model X, Model 3 and Model S in Tesla\u2019s revolutionary line of electric vehicles, but not everybody is convinced by its ability to make sales like the other models have. That\u2019s where The Fast Lane Car focus their discussion, with Nathan and Andre arguing the pros and cons of the Tesla Model Y \u2013 with an overarching narrative that seems to suggest the car is destined to fail. \u201cIt\u2019s a Model 3 with a high roof,\u201d Nathan says, clearly believing that it doesn\u2019t do enough to separate itself from other Tesla models \u2013 or indeed, other manufacturer\u2019s vehicles. \u201cThere\u2019s one really important thing that I think is going to fly in its face,\u201d he continues, saying that the Mustang Mach-E may be a huge competitor to the Model Y, while Andre adds that the Toyota RAV4 hybrid offers a much more affordable alternative to the Tesla. While Nathan agrees that it\u2019s a well-made vehicle, he believes that in buying it you\u2019re getting a car that \u201creally is basically a Model 3.\u201d He goes on to say that, in his opinion, the car is just a \u201crich toy\u201d and they \u201chaven\u2019t yet dropped to the point where it can be affordable for everybody.\u201d So, while the Tesla Model Y is bound to see a fair few sales in its opening months, The Fast Lane Car believes it\u2019s not quite destined for glory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Fast Lane Car YouTubers explain why Tesla Model Y will \u201cflop\u201d TeslaThe Fast Lane Car YouTubers are never afraid to put their opinions out there, and in an episode of their series \u201cNo, You\u2019re Wrong!\u201d the duo has explained why they think the Tesla Model Y is going to \u201cflop.\u201d In prior episodes, they\u2019ve [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-35364","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35364","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=35364"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35364\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35364"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=35364"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=35364"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
