it grows on you - it still has issues but it grows on you - it also helps if you compare it at 50k out the door to anything else for similar price for 50k…charging/range is less of an issue when charging at home every night - public charging isn't a thing unless you're road tripping.

rent a Tesla Model 3 from Hertz - now Tesla has their problems, and no they are not perfect. But in my experience I'll take (and actuallly have taken with this trip) a Model 3 over most _ANY_ normal car - especialy the stuff that you tend to end up with in a rental fleet…
I'll let you know...
regen on the Tesla can be "lessned" but not turned off - I"ve also found you get used to it - not unlike the engine braking I experienced with my rental car stick shift in iceland for the past 8 days
but to each their own - you have to live with an EV for longer period of time before Tesla's...
also note VW's software leadership company - can't keep their website functional - this is not a good look for a world class software effort - this will take YEARS to clean up - decades maybe.
Not the website - but the overall software approach - but when you see little details like this - and...
from the Cardid website
OMG - they are sooooo doomed - ISO 9001 and software - ROFL - that's supply chain physical component thinking - they are sooooo screwed - Tesla will continue to run circles around them.

Porsche is as good at software as Tesla is at mechanical engineering

+1 no vampire drain for Taycan - it takes weeks/month to even see a single %
on the tesla a lot if vampire drain however is sentry mode - if you turn off a lot of the away from vehicle features the vampire drain is still present but less so…
my feeling is this will eventually be "normal" - a...
seems pretty spot on to me - Model is 1/2 the price but can do ok on the track - Taycan for 2 or 3x th price definately better - both cars will crap out after about 50 miles of track duty - and you need fast charging at the track.
Model 3 has a lot of room for improvement
Taycan is settled and...

Car & Drive's 40,000 mile report of their Tesla Model 3 - my Taycan has been out more than 8 days of service just receiving "OTA" updates at the dealership - and more days for actual problems - actually vs. _ANY_ of my Tesla's the Taycan has been...
yes Porsche is struggling with the software angle of vehicles - these days excellent mechanical "manners" are minimum requirement - and software will become more and more important (if it hasn't already) - Porsche has yet to demonstrate mastery in this space and I believe more and more customer...
having owned Tesla's since 2013 this is only true in jest and understates the real value delivered multiple times a years in meaningful software updates that do not require a multi-day dealer visit to provide bug fixes and new functionality.
I wouldn't make fun of Tesla's software skills and...
