Video Summary

Here is the requested summary of the YouTube video review:

The Model Y long-range produces 397 horsepower and 389 pound-feet of torque. It can travel over 300 miles on a single charge. Range varies with wheel size. Larger wheels yield closer to 300 miles. Smaller 19-inch wheels allow around 320 miles. The model has front storage space, adding to its practicality.
The front-end design is straightforward and looks pretty sharp. A split light design with a light bar is featured. A camera is at the front end's bottom.
The tire and wheel setup on the model is 255/45/19. Closed wheels improve aerodynamic efficiency, increasing the range. The side cameras are notable for capturing any damages to the vehicle. The mirror caps are painted to match. Pop-out door handles are also included. The Model Y still has an egg shape. The car uses a card key for entry. The Model Y has a factory-installed cargo cover.
Buttons are present to fold down the seats. The seats fold down almost flat and can be raised via power. The cargo space is notably practical. The car's rear includes a light bar and a Tesla logo.
The interior has ambient lighting, suede trim, and soft-touch materials. The seats are trimmed in soft-touch leather with a perforated center. Legroom in the back is good. There is rear storage, including pockets and a screen to control seat heaters, folding seats, climate control, games, and videos. The glass roof has a shade. It also has an electronic door popper.
Tesla's fit and finish are now better. The front seat features power adjustments and lumbar support. Passenger seat is only power adjustable. The card key is inserted in the space below the screen.
The steering wheel has a minimalist design with trim. The center screen displays the selected multi-function controls. Some shortcuts, including lights and windshield wipers, are on the steering wheel. The car includes a traditional turn signal stock. The car lacks a gauge cluster, but there's a clear view over the hood. It features a 360-degree camera system with good resolution.
Functions are all controlled through the screen with a shortcut bar at the bottom. The vehicle tab provides settings such as steering, mirrors, and recording. The glove box is controlled through the screen. Chill and standard acceleration modes are available. The suspension is good. Wheel insulation improves.
The reviewer is not yet sold on electric cars, stating they will be for secondary cars. The test drive went well with the full self-driving feature for about 90% of the way. The build quality feels much better now. The long-range Tesla Model Y needs to have over 400 miles. Overall, the Model Y greatly improved.
