Do mega corporations notice when start-ups leverage their business idea and start churning significant revenue out of it? I guess they do, and a classic example is Tesla’s Model Y Air Mattress, which Elon Musk’s firm recently released on its Tesla Shop, probably inspired by the Snuuzu mattress. Priced competitively at $225, the long-awaited inflatable air mattress serves a dual purpose. Firstly it provides comfortable car camping for Tesla owners. Secondly, it sends a clear message to third-party companies profiting from selling mattresses compatible with Tesla’s popular Model Y.
Nevertheless, the market is still wide open for many players, and if they want to be the big fish, they have to up the ante, which Tesla seems to have done with the Model Y air mattress. The inflatable mattress provides a soft landing pad with its three-inch, high-density foam filling, and also ensures that you wake up feeling refreshed. To complement the three-inch foam filing, Tesla has used a waterproof polyester exterior that adds an extra layer of durability and luxury for your slumber.
If you are new to car camping and a little inquisitive about mattress placement, the Tesla mattress neatly fits between the wheel wells in the trunk and extends to the front seats. Boasting dimensions of 74.4 inches in length and 50.4 inches in width, it offers a cozy spot for a comfortable nap during camping excursions.
The Tesla Model Y Inflatable Mattress comes complete with a convenient carry bag for easy transportation, an air pump adaptor for added versatility, and two repair patches for peace of mind on your outdoor adventures. As expected, as soon as Tesla put the mattress on its website, the accessory was sold out in a jiffy, highlighting its high demand among Tesla owners. So, if you want this air mattress, you’ll have to wait for Tesla to stock the Model Y air mattress back in its online store.

For user safety and comfort, Tesla has listed several instructions that are to be followed before using the Model Y Air Mattress. Though the mattress is self-inflatable, the company recommends using an air pump for first inflation. Additionally, Tesla warns not to use the Model Y Air Mattress while the vehicle is in operation. So, when you are ready to hit the road again, simply deflate the mattress and stow it in the vehicle’s rear well.
