The Tesla Model Y is longer, more powerful, can tow more, and gives you more space with the back seats folded down than the Jaecoo 7. You will find that rear visibility is disappointing in the Jaecoo 7 and atrocious in the Model Y. On twisty roads, neither car provides much steering feedback to let you know how much grip the front wheels have, and both feature lane-keeping systems that can feel oversensitive. When cornering, the Model Y's precise steering and lack of body lean mean you can chuck it down a smooth country lane with confidence, while the Jaecoo 7 is not very confidence-inspiring on a twisty road.
