Tesla Model Y Suspension Upgrade: Is It Worth It?

Hey everyone, DennisCW here! If you've been curious about the new Tesla Model Y and how its suspension stacks up against the older version, you're in the right place. In today's post, I'm breaking down my thoughts on the upgraded suspension, sharing a cool side-by-side comparison video, and diving into some awesome Tesla accessories and upgrades. Let's get started!

New Model Y Suspension: A Game Changer?

One of the biggest questions I’ve been getting lately is, "How much better is the suspension on the new Model Y compared to the old one?" My answer? Go test drive one yourself! Tesla is now offering up to 48-hour test drives, so you can really feel the difference. But if you can’t make it to a showroom just yet, I’ve got something cool to share.

The team at Enhance posted an awesome video comparing the bounce rate of the older Model Y versus the new Model Y side by side. Watching the two cars drive together, the difference in ride quality is pretty clear. I’ve driven both models extensively—having owned the older Model Y and now driving the new launch series—and I can confidently say the new suspension is top-notch. I’d estimate it’s about 20-30% more comfortable. Whether you’re cruising on the highway or navigating bumpy roads, the ride quality is noticeably smoother.

If you’ve got a new Model Y, I’d love to hear your thoughts! How does it compare to the older model for you? Drop a comment below and let’s chat.

Unplugged Performance: Wheel Trade-In Program

Switching gears (pun intended), let’s talk about a fun post from Unplugged Performance. They’ve got a wheel trade-in program that I’m pretty excited about. If you trade in your Model Y rims, you can get a $1,000 credit toward a new set of rims. They recently showcased their police rims, which I’ve had a similar set of on my Cybertruck, and I absolutely loved them.

Why did I like these rims so much? It’s all about the tire-to-rim ratio. The thicker tire gives the car a beefy, rugged look while offering practical benefits. One of the biggest perks? You don’t have to worry about curb rash at all. I’m seriously considering this setup for my next upgrade. If you’ve tried Unplugged Performance rims or are thinking about it, let me know what you think!

Must-Have Tesla Accessory: 3W All-Weather Floor Mats

One thing’s for sure—if you’re buying a new Tesla, it won’t come with all-weather floor mats. That’s where my favorite set comes in: 3W Liners. I’ve tested just about every floor mat out there—3D Maxpider USA, Tesmanian, and a bunch of Amazon options—and hands down, 3W Liners are the best. I’ve got them in my Model X, Model 3, Model Y, and even my Cybertruck.

Why do I love them? They offer incredible protection, fit perfectly, and are super easy to clean. Right now, you can grab a set for under $100 using my promo code (check the link below) and save 25% off. Plus, you’ll be supporting the channel, which I truly appreciate. And here’s a bonus: 3W just released their Juniper floor mats, and with the promo code Dennis35, you can save 35% off! They’ve got options for Model Y, Model 3, Cybertruck, Model S, and Model X.
