Tesla’s all-electric crossover Model Y has just achieved another feat as it beat Toyota’s conventional pickup in an interesting stability test conducted by auto group offroad.iran.
Tesla Model Y demonstrates remarkable stability
The testing involved driving the Tesla Model Y and the Toyota pickup on a ramp, with only one side of them touching the surface.
As you can see in the video attached to the X post above, Tesla’s top-selling Model Y proved that it can remain stable even when only two of its wheels were on the ramp.e
Tesla’s performance was undoubtedly exceptional, as the Instagram channel’s host noted.
Toyota pickup’s performance
In contrast, the Toyota pickup garnered some laughter from the people in the testing area as it had a hard time climbing up the ramp with only two of its wheels.
It failed to show stability as the other two side wheels did not leap up to match the level of the ramp two wheels were taking. Its difficulty in performing well in the test demonstrated the Tesla Model Y’s strong performance even in the most complicated roads and trails, Motor Mouth asserts.
What contributed to the Tesla Model Y’s stability in the testing?
Tesla Model Y’s remarkable stability is primarily due to its low center of gravity, as noted by Teslarati. Despite having huge and heavy battery packs, its balanced weight distribution enabled the all-electric crossover to perform well in the unique stability test.
In contrast, the Toyota pickup truck’s heavy internal combustion engine and empty bed unbalanced its weight distribution. In effect, it has weaker stability than the Tesla Model Y with a battery pack.
The Tesla Model Y’s commendable stability demonstrates its unique qualities that other vehicles, like the Toyota pickup, cannot beat. Such impressive results are another achievement that can significantly encourage more customers to take an interest in the Tesla Model Y. In effect, it can boost Tesla’s sales and delivery figures in the coming quarters.
