    Bought a Model Y here. I was immensely impressed and didn't have any QC issues that Tesla is known for. ID4 never came on my map. I was impressed with the Mach E, but dealers drove away me as a potential buyer. A lot of dealers asking 10k over sticker, even worse for the GT. Basically priced the standard Mach E above the Model Y performance. Doesn't make much sense.

      Yup, Ford dealers are one of the worst. Too bad I'm a Ford guy. On top of that Ford lately is getting worst with their features being offered at way higher price than competitors from Asia. Example, Hyundai and Toyota offer their full driving assistance technologies on most of their models as standard including some of their base. While Ford's blue cruise is offered at a premium price. With that said we really tried hard looking at Ford and other american cars 1st before deciding. Eventually finance wins over heart.

    I used to build the battery for the id.4 It is certainly the most recyclable battery on the market. The car isn't as fast as the Model Y, but realistically it doesn't need to be. I thought it was plenty fast enough and very nice to drive. I'm also 6'5 and could behind the seats if they were where I would need them.

      Actually I think you've got that backwards. Build quality and ride are not easy to fix. Obviously they're not because 12 years after they started building cars they're still having issues with this. Software is the thing that should be easy to fix...
      Just requires programming. And all of these cars get over the air updates.
      So this so the software problems in the other two vehicles can be easily rectified.
      The Tesla riding like crap and having squeaks and rattles is not something that can be fixed afterwards in an update.

      Basic controls like turn signal knobs, volume knobs, climate control settings are things that people do want physical controls over.
      People coming from other cars are going to want things that feel familiar they don't want to have to relearn everything new.
      Even the door handles on the Teslas are idiotic. Have someone walk up to a Tesla and try to figure out how to open the door.
      If you have to explain to someone how to open the door you failed as an engineer designing that door handle opening system.
      Personally I'd get the Volkswagen, I drive for a living all day long and the softer ride would be something I would personally desire.
      You can get the car in all wheel drive now with significantly more power. For a $3,000 upgrade in all trims.
      They also offer three different levels of trim. The base model is $39,000. Comes with everything you could possibly want in a car. Skips the giant panoramic roof, and gives you cloth seats.
      I live in the Southwest.
      The last thing I want is a giant glass panel over my head in the middle of summer.
      The inside of a car can get to 150° f in the summer .. the last thing you want is leather seats. And Volkswagen allows me to decide what I want.
      I'm not a big Volkswagen fan in general. I try to stay away from European cars due to high repair costs and maintenance issues. But I think being electric a lot of that might be eliminated but who knows for sure.

    The Mach-E is definitely my favorite looking of the trio and I love the fact that they still provide a speedo/gauge cluster. It would definitely be my pick if I was in the market. My next car is definitely going to be an EV so I'm hopeful there will be more options and more charging infrastructure in the next 2-3 years. But good point about charging overnight in the city. My historic high rise doesn't have one or plan to install one, but thankfully there are some options in underground garages in the neighborhood.

    My first 6 moths in the model 3 has yielded 20k miles. No issues getting around. Most aggressive was trip was 3000 miles in one week. The stops for charging is actually good and it resets your brain for the next stint. The only thing I have been missing is waypoints, but that has recently been added. I do not find the M3 particularly quiet. When you get up to highway speed there is some wind noise that is quite audible. But then again, before that I was in a S90 and it was for sure quieter at highway speeds. The S90 had the B&W audio system and because of that the sound system in the model 3 always seemed disappointing to me. I liked the seats in the Volvo better but my family likes the Tesla more.

    as a tesla stock investor since 2013, i am probably biased, although i don't own a tesla. so when i say that the KIA EV6 looks to be as good or better than the tesla model Y at a comparable price (~$60,000), then you may want to believe it. available in europe now, and coming to the U.S. next spring.
    and yes, legacy automakers with their shortsightedness have ruled out half of their prospective clients by not having invested in an easily accessible worldwide charging network with speeds that make a home charger unnecessary; a convenience perhaps but not a necessity.
    BTW, i can say for certain that for me the lack of a screen directly in front of me was not be an issue after the first fifteen minutes of driving. and yes, the stark, minimalist interior, even for a minimalist is a bit OTT. looks like it might have been designed by a max von planck or robert oppeheimer.

      I agreed with most of what they said, but when they say go with the Tesla for the better range, then I have to respectfully disagree. Look at range of each in real world testing. The Ford has better range when tested, no questions. Ford under promised but over delivers on its mileage calculations. Tesla over promised but under delivers. So says Edmunds, Alex on Autos and Kyle, professionals who each performed real world testing and gave the nod to the Mustang as having the longest range.
      And if sporty handling and drivability is your most important factor, then I say go with the Mustang Mach E GT PE with Magna Ride suspension. Neither Tesla or the VW have that. It makes a huge difference.
      The one big advantage of the Tesla is its nationwide charging structure, but I believe the others will catch up fast and sooner rather than later. Also, the vast majority of EV owners do their charging at home. No matter what EV you pick, its pretty cool to have a charger in your garage which pumps electrons into your car while you sleep. How many ICE owners have a gas pump in their garage?

      I'm not sure I agree on the charging infrastructure. I mean it's cool that you can charge 'anywhere', sure, but for most people the main benefits of EV's is the cost, and if you rely on the infrastructure (specifically supercharging) then the cost becomes not great, they rape you in terms of cost to supercharge your car. When fuel prices are low it's more expensive to charge L3 than fill with gas. Maybe it's different now that gas prices are so high, but when they'relow there isn't a huge difference in cost between gas & electric (obviously maintenance aside). When you charge at home however, it generally decimates the cost of gas.
      So IDK, if you rely on supercharging in the EV infrastructure you get reamed and pay near gas prices. I wouldn't buy an EV unless I planned on relying almost entirely on 110v or 220v garage power and only charging at a power station in an emergency or if I wanted some peace of mind, and I'd think other people may feel the same.
      That being said, their whole nav bit, where you can do road trips and it factors the charging stops and how long into each leg of the trip is pretty badass.

    Both the ID.4 and the Mach-E were very close in my thinking, but I ultimately decided on the AWD ID.4. I just have a bit more of a European bent when it comes to cars, I suppose.
    The mach-e was at a disadvantage with my memories of nightmarish Ford buttons and unnecessary glitz and middle-america gadgetry in many previous models. The Mach-E felt a bit overbuilt in terms of component upsizing to make-up for deficiencies. I didn't want to spend the money when I knew full well that in ~5 years or so EVs will go through another two major generational shifts in battery technology. We'll be replacing my wife's vehicle about then.
    I'm old enough now that I don't really feel the need to go 154 mph down I-5 at 2am in the morning any more. Comfort is important. Design is important. Build quality is important. My family comes from a sports-car background, so decent responsiveness and acceleration is important. But it doesn't have to ride low and it doesn't have to be as sporty as I would have required in past years. Ridiculous acceleration (aka Tesla) is not important.
    I was never much interested in the Tesla (despite being a techie, the build quality, ride, and a host of other factors made it a no-go for me). I don't like locked-in ecosystems for anything, and I really hate the whole concept of software locks on hardware that is perfectly capable of doing something just to squeeze more money out of customers. Like for example, when during recent hurricanes Tesla 'unlocked' features for drivers in those zones that should have never been locked in the first place. It just bent me the wrong way. Throw in the poor build quality and horrid interior and it was just never in the running for me.
    So I put in the reservation well over a year ago for the AWD ID.4 and only just recently took delivery. And I'm very happy with that choice.
    Now the ID.4's software and capacitive button quirks are well documented on countless respected youtube channels, but they were never bad enough to change my choice. As an owner, I can reiterate that view. Sure, I have a long wish list of fixes I'd like VW to make. But none of them are show-stoppers. Just little annoyances. Clearly Tesla's software and its software engineering update cycles are far superior. The other car makers are still in the stone-age and need to play catch-up. I'm willing to give VW the time to work through the quirks. The capacitive buttons aren't all that bad... some work extremely well, such as the volume and temperature controls and the skylight curtain slider. Others, not so well. Not unusable, just not as convenient as they should be. Quirky :-)
    I would say that really... between the AWD and the RWD ID.4, its gotta be the AWD ID.4. The extra power and regen makes a for a completely different driving experience. Instead of feeling a bit underpowered with the RWD, the AWD feels like it has that little bit of extra that you usually don't need to dip into. The regen braking is far better (it still doesn't come to a complete stop but two motors doing regen is a big deal). It doesn't feel sludgy off the mark. It accelerates through turns very nicely. It is clear that VW's hardware and engineering is up to the task so a few software cycles (assuming they can pull that off) will probably be a game-changer for anyone still on the fence.
    I don't need a Frunk. I don't even WANT a frunk. There is plenty of cargo space, I don't need more. I love the ID.4's interior spaces, particularly the night lighting. The LED headlights (etc) are to die for. Really well done, I didn't even realize the headlights were following my turns it was so smooth! Yah, I got the full package. I love the exterior look, particularly at night. VW has done a slam-bang job in my view.
    Of course, everyone will have their own opinions and their own picks. Those are mine. It would be a dull world if everyone thought in lock-step :-).

    Let's see how long the Ford and VW hold up. Being the first build, they are bound to have problems. I agree that fit and finish are not great with my Model Y but, they were fixed the first day. I've had it for a year now coming from a Lexus RX350F which I really liked. I have to say, I would not go back to the Lexus or any ICE car. I do agree that I would love to see a heads up display and my wife would really love an O'Shit handle because the car is so damn fast. I've grown accustom to the minimalist interior now and use the auto drive more and more. Touching the wheel every 30 seconds is still better than having to steer the car for long periods of time on a long trip. It doesn't handle great but, it is still as good as my Lexus RX350F was. The charging network and software are leaps and bounds above the competition. I have only on 2 occasions had range anxiety because I forgot to charge my car. If you drive around town like a normal person, you will get the mileage or maybe more. Freeway over 70, mileage drops off about a 3rd. Using the Tesla Superchargers take about 15 to 30 minutes depending on the charge you need and they are everywhere. The Tesla comes with entertainment options while you wait or you can just go grab a snack and by the time you return, you will be ready to go. As far as styling, I still think the Y is a much better looking vehicle than the other two. I've leased and owned multiple different brands of cars over the past 30 years, and I can honestly say that the Tesla is my favorite of all of them.

      I was waiting to see what the Build Back Better was going to offer as incentives to EV purchases. Looking (at the time) low/mid-40's for the Model 3 Long Range, minus $7,500 which would have put me in the mid/upper 30's, just a little more then we paid for my wife's van in 2017. But then Tesla did the most Tesla thing ever and jacked their prices up so it is almost the same net to me (I would have to make large sacrifices in order to make the payments) .
      Remember that Tesla dropped their prices after they no longer qualified for the last Subsidy. As soon as the new one was getting ready yo pass the house, they hit the Model 3 for +2K and then +1K. Of course demand is up for their vehicles so the law of supply and demand says that the prices need to go up.
      I think that the government would do better telling the manufacturers/dealers that they can sell the vehicle for X dollars and have the buyer go online and fill out the documents with the government and then have the vehicle delivered to the dealer for the purchaser to pick up. This would ensure that price structing is fare for the buyer and the buyer is restricted on what they can buy as an approved vehicle and all the tax documents would be up to date. Instead a lot of dealers will match what Tesla just did and also jack up their prices. I believe that the dealers are adding an additional $2,500 to every new vehicle because supply is low.
      One other negative thing about Tesla, there appears to be some collusion between Tesla and Carvana. Check out the prices for used Tesla and you will see that a used 2018 Model 3 is more expensive than a new Model 3, same with Model Y (which are in a 6 month delay for delivery so that sort of makes sense). Carvana has some real bait and switch things going on. Carvana is listing on EBay and AutoTrader and they are keeping the prices artificially high across every platform. I would love to see in the future what their game is. This is the pump portion of the pump and dump scam.

      the incentive should not be on EV purchases, but for companies to build charging networks. That is what is needed to make this conversion to EV use. All the manufacturers like Tesla are doing is jacking up prices so they can pocket the money, not make EV's cheaper/more accessible to ordinary people. They already have profit margins of 30% (they brag about) and yet they have raised prices around $10k on most models in the past year in anticipation of the tax incentives coming.

      What's worse is that they're still not even meeting the demand meaning that despite the price increase people are still buying them so there's no incentive for Tesla to lower the prices.

    It is always difficult for someone who has spent their time in one technology to review a shift. I remember people reviewing the iPhone and criticizing the lack of keyboard, lack of a pullout antenna and how dirty the screen will be after a days use. I do agree that the build quality on the Tesla is behind the big boys but the speed that is improving is amazing. I also want to differentiate Teslas and Electric cars, one is about a different way of transporting, the other is about a change in power train. Reviewing a Tesla with the rules created over one hundred years will mislead you. Ask yourself, why did Tesla force the industry to change? I don’t think it was about the power train, I think they realized the car as we know it is about to change forever. Keep in mind, we are at the beginning of the new hundred year journey.

      I keep tossing that idea around in my mind. The dinosaur was fine until the comet/meteor came and changed everything.
      Look at cell phones pre-Apple. Job's designed and assembled it (Samsung copied his idea as he was using them as a supplier at the time). Every phone from then foreword is borrowing from that single idea - that you cant design buttons for a function which has not even been though of yet. And the phone plus the software competed the package.
      I spoke with developers back in the day and they said that they like to program for the iOS platform because it had a limited number of variables (processor type, graphic resolutions) and Android was the wild west. Almost 10 years later I am sure that there are a multitude of variables that they hadn't even considered at the time.
      Every phone since the iPhone 4 which has been released has been the iPhone killer. Some do an antiquate job of mimicking the function but I have yet to see one which changes peoples perceptions as quickly as the first generations. Everyone else played catch up (they were mostly still making flip phones or the small phones with the rubber antenna bump).

    Great comparison. I've been driving an ID4 for 2 years: (I am not a sporty driver, but not slow either) I like the driving experience. It drives like a VW Passat, a family car. BUT build quality is BAD! In the those 2 years, an arm rest broke of. Passenger window motor broke down and had to be replace. Light-strip on the booth came loose. Still now the center console crashes at least once a month. My car has been serviced in the shop many times (recalls,fixes,updates). The last one, a month ago, it took 4 days for a software update. And when I left the shop, they made me make a new appointment for a new software update this month... And I lost all my settings in the car after this last update... The controls underneath the screen are not lighted so invisible at night. I often have to retry several times to open the car with my key. The remote control (like preheating) from the app often doesn't work. I could go on, but you get the idea. We needed a new car for my wife, so last week we bought a mustang mach e long range RWD.

    I've had many cars over the years, mostly Toyotas since financially they make the sense and they offer the most utility for a family of 5. However, VW/Audi has always been the most enjoyable to drive with the nicest interiors. Even my used Passat GT which was one of the cheapest cars I ever had was an absolute joy. It had everything I really needed, was simply fantastic to drive and was pleasant to be in.
    I have a used Etron Tecknik now. It is incredible and easily the most sophisticated and advanced vehicle I've ever had. The interior is light years ahead of anything Tesla has and it has cooling seats, a nice perk you expect from cars this expensive. An air suspension also makes a huge difference in driving feel and adapting to what you're doing. In terms of price, a new Etron would never make sense for me or most people but my used one was 4 years old, had 33,000km and no accidents and I paid less for it then a model 3 or y.
    However, I haven't been able to drive it for 6 months (!) because it was t-boned and it takes forever to fix and get parts for an aluminum body.

    I dunno. I drove the Mach e and the Model Y. The VW isn't a consideration. The Ford is incredibly good. It is more solid than any Ford I've ever been in. But it does't drive as sporty as a base-level Model Y, and much less sporty than the Performance Y. It's also not really a crossover because it's actually lower to the ground than most sedans because of the battery. The interior is very good, but too conventional. The touchscreen graphics are dated and the responsiveness was laggy. The fake engine noise was stupid. The ride of the Y is not as subtle as the Mach e... it's stiff with the standard wheels and downright harsh with the performance wheels. But I completely disagree that it rolls or feels top heavy. Particularly because that's what I thought about the Ford. Makes me wonder what the results would have been if Tesla ran advertising on the MT network. In the end I ordered a Model Y... haven't received it yet. Maybe in February. It's a better crossover, is engineered more intelligently in many ways, performs better and has a vastly better charging network.

It's tank size vs. consumption, like with every other car. And I don't see anyone reviewing Golf GTI and saying "it has a 400 miles range..." Tell as the MPG/e and mention the tank size, the range is up to the driver and driving style.

My model 3 gets 250 miles and then everyone acts like that would be so hard to live with. It boggles the mind. I explain to non-ev users that I charge at home and I do not do long trips anyways.

    • @dmandman9
      @dmandman9 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s true that the vast majority of charging will be at home or at a charging station close to home. So range isn’t that important in those situations. BUT people also want to take the spontaneous long trip without having check to see if finding a charging station will be a problem. The reason why range isn’t that important for gasoline fueled vehicles is because even on long trips
      1. you can find fuel almost anywhere.
      2. It takes only a couple of minutes to fill up. So frequent fueling stops don’t add that much time.
      Once a person knows that they can find a charging station almost anywhere. And once charging time improves to the point it’s not that much longer than filling up a gas tank, then range will become less of an issue. But for now, it’s an important consideration for those who like to hit the road from time to time.
