Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The 2021 Tesla Model Y's #7 ranking is based on its score within the Luxury Hybrid and Electric SUVs category. Currently the Tesla Model Y has a score of 7.6 out of 10, which is based on our evaluation of 15 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Quick and agile
Spacious, comfortable seats
Good cargo capacity

Cons
No physical controls for vehicle functions
Poor cabin assembly quality
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto not available

By: 
usnews.com

Introduced, and then discontinued, Standard Range version.Seven-seat configuration now available.

Pros
Plenty of range
Stunning acceleration, especially from the Performance model
Convenient Supercharger network for long-distance driving
Roomy seating front and rear

Cons
No Apple CarPlay or Android Auto smartphone integration
Performance model's overly stiff ride
Optional third row of seats is barely usable

By: 
edmunds.com

Other than the introduction of an optional pair of pop-up third-row jump seats, we aren't forecasting any major design or technology upgrades for the Model Y this year.

Pros
Peppy electric powertrain,
spacious cargo hold,
cutting-edge technology features.

Cons
Chassis isn't as taut as the four-door Model 3,
fit-and-finish needs polish,
too reliant on the touchscreen for simple vehicle settings.

The 2021 Mercedes-Benz G-Class comes with four wheel drive. Available transmissions include: 9-speed shiftable automatic.12.3-inch digital instrument cluster now standard on G 550.Wireless charging now standard on AMG G 63.More customization offered via Mercedes G manufaktur list of options.

PROS
Impressive off-road abilities
Powerful V8 engines
Refined interior
Unmistakable exterior styling

CONS
Ponderous handling
Difficult to get in and out of
Limited cargo space
Previous-generation Mercedes infotainment system

By: 
edmunds.com

Mercedes's souped-up G-class model receives a wireless smartphone charging pad as standard equipment for 2021 and sees an expansion to the G manufaktur customization service that can provide an even deeper level of personalization. Elsewhere, a new AMG Night package adds black exterior trim pieces, and a new spare tire cover in Night Black Magno is now available.

PROS
Physics-defying acceleration,
impressive off-road abilities,
lovable boxy styling.

CONS
Noisy when cruising,
cornering at speed is anxiety inducing,
silly expensive.

By: 
caranddriver.com

If the G-Wagen is your thing, the 2021 Mercedes G-Class is arguably the greatest on-road, off-road, and everywhere in between.

PROS
Imposing stance
Luxurious interior
Far from uninteresting
Serious off-road ability
G63’s acceleration

CONS
Massive pricetag
Massive guzzler
Taller than wider interior
