Dog stairs | Dog crate | Dog cushion for the Tesla Modell Y
Joint and back-friendly Dog&Drive system for your four-legged friend
Dog&Drive offers the innovative dog stairs for vehicles and sets new standards for healthy and comfortable traveling with your dog. Adapted to the Tesla Modell Y, our system combines elegance and functionality to transport your dog safely and comfortably. Our staircase offers a firm stand and does not need to be dismantled and stowed away, making it more practical and safer than a dog ramp. The system complements a dog crate and fulfills all the functions of one, while the safety aspect is further enhanced by the integrated dog cushion. In the event of an accident, it is safer for the dog to bounce against a soft cushion than against the hard iron bars of a conventional dog crate.

The Dog&Drive system for the Tesla Modell Y compared to conventional dog transportation options
The following table illustrates the advantages of the Dog&Drive system for the Tesla Modell Y compared to conventional dog steps and ramps – particularly in terms of musculoskeletal health and comfort for the dog as well as ease of use and vehicle integration.
Feature | Dog&Drive System | Conventional Dog Stairs/Ramps |
---|---|---|
Adaptation to the Vehicle | Perfect fit for the Tesla Modell Y. |
Not tailored to the Tesla Modell Y. |
Stable Solution for Entry and Exit | A central foot ensures a stable stand even on a sloping vehicle. |
Stairs/ramps are placed on the loading edge/bumper. Instability must be manually compensated. |
Width of Entry | The entire trunk width is used for entry. |
Commercially available entries are half as wide as the Dog&Drive stairs. |
Storage for the Solution | In the closed state, the folded stairs stand upright along the trunk lid. No assembly and disassembly of the stairs needed. |
Additional storage space, e.g., behind the front seats, is required for stowing. |
Safety | The upright standing stairs prevent uncontrolled jumping out of the dog when opening the trunk. A dog box is not necessary. |
Commercially available dog boxes prevent uncontrolled jumping out of the dog. |
Comfort for Dog Owner | The dog owner can operate the stairs with one hand. The other hand always has control of the dog. |
Ramp/stairs must be removed from the car, unfolded, placed, and adjusted to prevent wobbling for each trip, requiring two hands. |
Comfort for Dog | Various high-quality cushions are individually made for vehicle models. |
Vehicle-specific cushions are also available from other manufacturers. |
Health Protection | Reduction of joint strain in dogs due to low entry height and optimal slope of the stairs. |
Joint and back strain of your dog increases up to fivefold when jumping out. |
Safety during the Drive | Perfect integration into the trunk through a connecting frame with secure tensioning/fixing to the lashing points. |
Dog boxes are ideally attached to the bars through the lashing points. |
User Friendliness | The stairs can be operated with one hand with minimal effort. Easily manageable by one person. |
Market-available stairs and ramps must be taken out, unfolded, placed, and adjusted for each entry and exit, requiring considerable time and effort. |
Aesthetics | Innovative design and high-quality materials that blend perfectly with the interior of the Tesla Modell Y. |
Functional design (e.g., with dog boxes) that often does not meet vehicle aesthetics. |
Flexibility | The Dog&Drive stairs can be used for more than 60 different vehicle models. After the lease/financing period, the system can be used in the new vehicle with minimal effort. |
Limited adaptation possibilities with permanently installed systems. |
Long-term Health | Jumping in and out of the trunk is not possible. Thus, the joints and back of the dog are only properly stressed. Ideal for dogs with musculoskeletal damage. Important as a preventive measure for healthy dogs. |
Jumping out of trunks with high loading edges can increase the impact force by up to fivefold. Joints and back can be permanently damaged. |
Space for the Dog | The Dog&Drive stairs are space-savingly integrated into the trunk and fit the shape of the trunk lid. This reduces the space for the dog by only a few centimeters. |
Dog boxes are not designed for specific vehicles and thus do not utilize the entire trunk. |
Use without the Dog | The Dog&Drive stairs can be removed by one person with minimal effort in seconds. Unrestricted use of the trunk, e.g., for shopping, is possible. |
Dog boxes cannot be quickly installed and removed. Only restricted use of the trunk is possible. |
