Tesla has introduced a new camping accessory designed specifically for the Model Y, featuring a rear canopy that offers shelter from various weather conditions.
Pricing and Material Details
The Model Y canopy comes at a price of $150 and is constructed from reflective fabric that has a shiny silver finish, stretched over lightweight aluminum alloy poles.
Expanded Coverage
This camping accessory increases the trunk area coverage by approximately 48 square feet, providing enhanced protection from rain, wind, and intense sunlight. The canopy is rated for UV50+ protection, which means it effectively blocks harmful sun rays. In addition, it can endure severe weather, including heavy rain, and remains stable even in wind gusts of up to 24 MPH, despite being mounted on the vehicle without any ground support.
Easy Assembly and Storage
Weighing in at an impressive lightweight, the $150 Model Y canopy can be set up or taken down in just minutes. Its compact size allows for easy storage in the frunk, making it incredibly convenient. With the official Tesla logo featured prominently, it's a stylish alternative to other third-party tents made for the Model Y, although it does come at a higher price point. For those planning camping trips, this canopy pairs wonderfully with Tesla's official air mattress, which is designed to fit snugly around the wheel arches in the trunk.
