so its always been wet/dry with the leaking problems. now its suggested that its a design feature. nice .

Same as the Cybertruck in back. Very useful!

Nothing like sealing in all that moisture without drying it. That smell will be tremendous in the coming days and weeks.

Awesome feature. Great for tailgating

Key feature is the drain plug. No other Tesla model has had one that I'm aware of.

As someone who has this in the Mustang Mach E it is amazing and makes cleaning out the frunk so easy. Big time when some really nasty sticky stuff got in there. Just took the hose and cleaned it out really fast.

but it is not sealed in. It will drain out the plug and it is great when you have it.

Not all the liquid is draining out. It still needs to be dried. This was mostly a criticism of the video, not the actual functionality!

I was at a service center on Sunday 4/6 and I saw that one of the new Model Y’s had a mis-aligned hood / frunk. Be careful of your deliveries and make sure you check this before acceptance.

oh you are right. I think the Mach E design was better when just allows liquid to always drain out no plug as it makes it impossible to get water drain out. Still a much over due update for Tesla.

Can you see through the plug? Just for peace of mind I would like to see where the water is flowing out the bottom before I go running the hose in there. 👀

Yea they should have done this to both the Frunk and the subtrunk. Heck I would probably pay if someone made replacement "buckets" for each that had a drain in them. I have spilled crockpot before in the sub trunk and cleaning out is not fun.

Go away.

I would probably just never put the plug in tbh.

rea; question is how is the drain designed. In the Mach E it is a 1 way valve so water only goes out not in and they have it setup so when driving no way to get water into the frunk. Either way long over due feature.

Somehow some small amount of water got in my… sub.. trunk? The hidden compartment. I opened it up once to get some cables and everything was covered in white fluffy mould. Very irritating to clean!

This is a good point, this seems more like the plug at the bottom of a cooler than what the Mach E has. Quite possibly would allow water ingress.

Imagine putting mother’s ashes in the frunk only for it to get water logged

Probably should have sprung for a watertight urn instead of the free cardboard box. On the upside, leave the plug out and in dry weather the car can help spread mother's ashes.

Subtrunk, I call it the hide from the wife trunk. You can hide gifts, flowers, crap you had before you dated that you want to get rid of when you go to work.

Only reason I haven’t filled mine with subwoofer

Is that to keep the frunk dry if you drive into the lake?

Is the frunk tub in the new Y interchangeable with the one in the old Y? it would be about the easiest unbolt/rebot "upgrade" ever if that were the case.
