The 2023 Tesla Model Y measures 4.75 m long and 2.13 m wide (including door mirrors). A standard UK parking bay is 2.4 m wide by 4.8 m long, so here's how it stacks up.

It's a snug fit: about 0.27 m of width and 0.05 m of length to spare. Doable, but you'll want to line up carefully — and choosing an end bay or a quieter part of the car park makes life easier.

Its turning circle is 12.1 m (kerb to kerb) — on the larger side, so expect to need a bit more room to swing into a space.
