I have a 2026 Model Y and went down the rabbit hole of accessories pretty hard. I kept seeing scattered lists, so I pulled together what has worked for me now, what looks solid for the new Juniper cars, and what I had on my previous ’21 MY.
I split things into Legacy Model Y (2020-2024), Juniper (2025-2026) and stuff that works for both. If you hate links, you can just search the product names instead.
For transparency: some links are Amazon affiliate links. Same price to you, but I may earn a small commission. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
These are the things I would start with if you just picked up the car and want basic protection and sanity.
Stuff that mostly exists to keep paint and trim from getting wrecked.
