Compare the Kia PV5 Passenger vs Tesla Model Y
AI generated from our expert reviews
The Kia PV5 Passenger can have a third row of seats, whereas the Tesla Model Y cannot. The Model Y is more powerful and efficient, goes further on a charge and can tow more. Around town, the PV5 Passenger has smooth suspension that irons out bumps, whereas this version of the Model Y is really shaken up by rough roads and thuds through potholes. You also get fantastic visibility out of the Kia's massive rear window, while rear visibility in the Tesla is atrocious. On the motorway, there is quite a lot of wind noise in the PV5 Passenger, while this version of the Model Y allows a substantial amount of wind noise to enter the cabin.
