About This 2022 Tesla Model Y Performance

At 57,069 miles, this 2022 Model Y Performance sits comfortably in the sweet spot of the used EV market. It's broken in enough to have absorbed any early depreciation, yet still young enough to have plenty of battery life, software updates, and performance capability ahead of it.

2022 Tesla Model Y Performance and Engine

Dual AC Electric Motors and AWD

The 2022 Tesla Model Y Performance is powered by dual AC electric motors — one at the front axle and one at the rear — delivering all-wheel drive traction in all conditions. This setup produces an estimated 456 horsepower and rockets this SUV from 0 to 60 mph in around 3.5 seconds, making it one of the quickest SUVs in its class, electric or otherwise. The single-speed fixed gear transmission means there are no gear changes, no hesitation, and no delay — just instant, linear power delivery every time you press the accelerator.

For Southern California drivers, that kind of torque matters. Whether you're merging onto the 22 Freeway, navigating the 405 through Huntington Beach, or making a quick dash up the 57, the Model Y Performance handles it all with confidence and composure. The AWD system also makes this SUV a capable companion on occasional mountain drives to Big Bear or weekend trips up the PCH toward Malibu.

Tesla Model Y Features and Interior

Performance Trim Technology and Comfort

The Performance trim elevates the already impressive Model Y experience with sport-tuned suspension, performance brakes, and 21-inch Uberturbine wheels. Inside, Tesla's minimalist cabin centers around the massive 15-inch touchscreen that controls navigation, climate, media, and nearly every vehicle function. The interior is clean, modern, and refreshingly free of the button clutter found in traditional vehicles.

Seating for five adults is comfortable for daily commuting and long road trips alike, with ample cargo space behind the second row and additional frunk storage up front. Autopilot is standard on this vehicle, offering adaptive cruise control, lane centering, and automatic emergency braking — features that make the daily grind on Southern California's congested freeways significantly more manageable.

Tesla Model Y Reliability and Ownership

The Tesla Model Y has consistently ranked as one of the best-selling and most satisfying electric vehicles in the United States. Owners frequently cite the low cost of ownership as a major advantage — no oil changes, no transmission fluid, no spark plugs, and significantly reduced brake wear thanks to regenerative braking. At 57,000 miles, this Model Y Performance is well within the range where battery degradation is minimal, and Tesla's over-the-air software updates mean the car actually improves over time.

Tesla's Supercharger network remains the largest and most reliable fast-charging infrastructure in the country, giving Model Y owners confidence on long trips. Garden Grove and the surrounding Orange County area have seen significant Supercharger expansion, with stations accessible in Anaheim, Irvine, and Santa Ana. For daily driving, most owners simply plug in at home overnight and never worry about range at all.
