Please describe our product to someone who has never seen it before.

"I would describe your product to someone unfamiliar with it like this: If you're looking for a vehicle that will meet your transportation needs while being stylish and fun to drive, then the Tesla Model Y is perfect for you. It incorporates a stylish design with innovative engineering to create a car that looks good, functions well, and is fun to drive. The car also incorporates self-driving technology which allows you to relax and let the vehicle perform many of the driving tasks such as automatic braking, lane departure avoidance, and even some rudimentary navigation. The ergonomic features make it comfortable and put the other features of the car within easy reach. The controls are intuitive and easy to learn. The Tesla Model Y is probably one of the best-engineered vehicles available today. "
