About the Tesla Model Y
The Tesla Model Y is the Model 3 raised and stretched into an SUV, and it is the most practical electric car we rent. Four large suitcases fit in the rear boot with a front boot on top of that, the seating position is high, and the panoramic glass roof makes the cabin feel enormous. Same software, same charging speed and same app control as the Model 3.

What is included
- Comprehensive first-class insurance with Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) is included with every rental - there is no separate insurance upsell at handover.
- Minimum rental period is 3 days.
- A refundable security deposit of ฿7,000 covers the insurance excess. It is returned in full if it is not used.
- Delivery and collection anywhere on Koh Samui - your hotel, villa or the airport - are included in the rate.
Any minor damage is deducted from the deposit and the balance returned. We photograph every panel, the interior, the fuel or charge level and the odometer at handover, and you get those timestamped photos with your digital contract - so there is a record to compare against rather than an argument.
Who the Tesla Model Y suits
Families who want a Tesla, anyone staying up a hill who wants the extra clearance over a Model 3, and renters carrying a lot of luggage. It is the most spacious EV in the fleet outside the large premium SUVs.
The Tesla Model Y on Koh Samui roads
The Model Y is the Tesla to choose if your accommodation is anywhere above the coastal strip - the extra ground clearance over the Model 3 covers the great majority of Samui villa access roads. Range drops to roughly 380 km against the Model 3's 420 because of the bigger body, which on this island is a distinction without a practical difference. The panoramic roof does let a lot of heat in when parked; use the app to pre-cool.
Tesla Model Y rental - frequently asked questions
Model 3 or Model Y for Koh Samui?
The Model Y if you have luggage, passengers in the back, or accommodation up a hill - it is taller, roomier and has more ground clearance. The Model 3 if it is two of you staying on the coast, since it costs less and goes slightly further per charge.
How much luggage fits in a Tesla Model Y?
Four large suitcases in the rear boot, plus cabin bags in the front boot under the bonnet. It is the most practical electric car in our fleet under ฿2,500 a day.
Does the glass roof make the car hot?
Parked in Samui sun, yes - as does any car here. The roof glass is coated to block most infrared, and the Tesla app lets you start the air conditioning remotely a few minutes before you reach the car, which solves it.
