  • Because it's one of the first thing that's said about it, like its some big deal. Fuck it, I like having one storage locked behind that can't be easily opened by someone breaking in or whatever.

    But hey, carry on hating!

  • He does that globally?! That's crazy man!

  • At least I have my own opinion without all these morons downvoting like it matters.

    Not a single person has responded with a car yet. Wild how brain washed people got and I'm not going to buy another Tesla either, but if we can't be honest about every other car being behind and doing fuck all to catch up? Then what's the point. The level of hate and lack of reasoning is at least amusing. Must be Americans that are this level of stupid? Most of the comments came outside of European active hours.

  • Musk has personally set those cars ablaze. Also no other car ever has had anyone else die in them. Right?

    Funny, seen a video of porche crashing and locking 3 kids in back but they managed to break window to get them out while car was ablaze. But that never makes the news now, does it?

    Or how about Volvo! Oh we love praising them! But when news was making rounds of their battery packs setting themselves off? "100s of EVs under recall!"

    It only makes news when it's tesla, doesn't it?

  • My Lemmy must be blocking them as I haven't spotted a single car. Someone name dropped "Chevy". Is that what you mean?

    Go on, show me.

  • Name one.

  • I typed it all by myself, hence it reads so poorly, cunt. :)

  • The comment didn't deserve anything past this mockery.

    If one copies and pastes same tired comments, what else do they expect?

  • Fuck self drive. There are individual things some will do better, but as a package? Tesla is unbeatable. I'll paste what I've written earlier s to what makes Tesla the best:

    Efficiency - 4 miles per kWh minimum. Obviously that's for saloon / hatchback. Something like model y size 3.5 is acceptable. And this is something I want to verify myself, very few cars achieved this in my test drive.

    Key less entry - I'm too used to it. I don't want to go back to having to carry keys. I leave the house with just my phone and watch, both can pay for things and open things. They're locked behind my biometrics so I deem it safe.

    Sentry + dashcam - again, this is minimum in today's day and age to me. The car should always be recording. I'm not getting 3d party camera in a car I already paid +40k for.

    Fleet control - this is very country dependent. I can charge my car using wall plug and get super cheap rate or use a dummy charger which isn't connected to my electricity supplier and the car will let them know how much electricity the car used and it'll adjust on my bill. In quantifiable terms, this is a saving of 1/4th of charging cost or one of payment of £900 for installing compatible charger per location.

    Boot space - I have family, space is needed. The easiest thing for cars to achieve really.

    Software - be it accurate navigation, route planning or the touch and feel of it. Tesla Navigation is one I have most experience in. But I have serious confidence in it. I have arrived at home with 0% charge several times because the car said it could. It also got us through insane storm where it also accurately calculated the extra battery drain due to elevation and wind. Do other cars do it? Do they do it well? I know one thing, using Google / apple car play circumvent the in car navigation and charge networks so the built in map is actually important. One day hopefully they start supporting cars and then it'll be non issue.

    People hate on screen only, but I genuinely have never had problems with it. My wife also has no issues opening glove box, adjusting AC or changing songs or putting gps...

    Driver safety - this is fairly high on the list of things which will male me hate the car. When you watch a car review. Pay attention to when they say "it's super easy to turn off driver attention system!" THAT is a red flag. A car shouldn't have such abysmal safety measures they're annoying and you need to turn them off each drive because they self turn on. MG has the most annoying one and the dealer HAS LITERALLY TURN THEM OFF IN FRONT OF ME before letting me drive the car. I can't express how bad some of these are.

    Auto steer and cruise control - pretty much standard now days. I don't need FSD, just simple keep this speed and don't crash and on motorway, keep in the lane for me. Tesla autopilot is very good but others have come a long way over the 8 years.

    Look - I want a sporty looking car and interior I want it to be leather like feel, no fabric, no tacky "recycled" look. I'm paying serious money and I want some comfort. It's a low bar and pretty much any car I've test driven in the price range has been good enough comfort wise. I personally like minimalistic, but I'm not opposed to say the Taycan level.

    This has been fun to type out. I hope it makes sense. There were many cars which almost made it. I'm waiting for Xpeng test drive which promises all these things. So we shall see. Our model 3 has 91k on it. It's still a great car and if we need to spend another 3 years with it waiting for something new? That's fine.

  • Surely if that was such a problem and wide spread, it wouldn't be allowed nor the best selling car worldwide? But hey, I'm sure your Chinese car does a lot better! And isn't causing an actual ban to happen...

  • 10 years of no change and still ahead you say?????

  • Can you find some actual point except same old parroted one? "Poor quality", the fuck does that even mean?

  • Does it do any of this?

  • There's no alternative to sentry and keyless entry. Also no fleet control for cheap charging.

    Maybe Rivian or lucid does, but they're not in Europe. And have their own issues.

    If your argument is "oh I don't care so neither should you", it's a shitty argument.

    Notice the comments below. Not a single one actually came with a real world example of a better car. But hey ho, to be expected. Unfortunately the elon hate while justified, brings a lot of shouting idiots out. Facts unfortunately care not about your feelings.

  • 0 because they're not being sold?

  • "There are better cars"

    There really aren't. No car has gotten anywhere close to the level of tech in Tesla. But sure, let's ignore that and spend more on shittier car because FUCK YOU. no nice things for you while there are hungry kids in Africa!

    Buy what you want, he's set for life regardless.

  • I was so outraged, I typed off.

  • This is so incorrect it's funny. Shoes on in UK? When everyone has fucking carpets?
