I'm wondering if the Model Y glass roof is very good at reflecting heat from the sun. If not, I may consider getting film installed to reflect heat.

So to answer the original question: yes, the glass roof is very good at reflecting heat from the sun. Tesla has been using this glass on all their vehicles and it works well.Premium Interior

Don't know about Y but my 3 cooks at 127F in cabin when outside temp is 85F. The other day, went up to 140F outside temp 88F.I'm wondering if the Model Y glass roof is very good at reflecting heat from the sun. If not, I may consider getting film installed to reflect heat.
I truly don't understand why you guys want to have ur AC on to keep cabin below a certain temperature when you are not even in the car. I am sure I am missing something when reading this thread.I have 2018 Model 3 and it cooks in 85F outside, 127F in cabin, without A/C being on.
Problem is when office whole day and you turn climate control ON with A/C to keep cabin at 80F, battery drains considerably. Wish I had an answer to this.

ICE cars didn’t have all glass roofs. The cars that had a glass roof (only half the roof) had a sliding shade on the inside. I think it’s only now (since Tesla made it popular) there are panoramic roofs in ICE cars but they still have built in shades.I truly don't understand why you guys want to have ur AC on to keep cabin below a certain temperature when you are not even in the car.

I mean when you guys had ICE cars did you leave your car running all day while you were in the office.
Please someone help me understand or educate me on this...
I added a front and rear mesh shade to my Model 3 to cut down on the heat generated into the cabin. Inexpensive modification I found on Amazon.I'm wondering if the Model Y glass roof is very good at reflecting heat from the sun. If not, I may consider getting film installed to reflect heat.
I still don't get it. Does the car detect and wake up to cool the car if it gets above a certain temperature?I added a front and rear mesh shade to my Model 3 to cut down on the heat generated into the cabin. Inexpensive modification I found on Amazon.
Works well, don't even notice it is there.
yes, if you have the cabin overheat protection activated it will cool the car if it reaches 105F I believe is the threshhold. There may be other settings as well, i havent explored all that yet.I still don't get it. Does the car detect and wake up to cool the car if it gets above a certain temperature?
