That will be a larger, faster car than the Mach E but with likely 400 mile range. Other than the size everything else will be pretty much the same as the Model 3. So, if you were leaning toward MAch E, I'd wait the year for the EU-built Model Y.
Tesla are already about 7 years ahead of the other car manufacturers when it comes to battery tech. Their new batteries will increase their lead again. The only downside to Tesla is the owners who post *hilarious* videos online.
considering the main point of the mach e is the practicality which comes from the fact that its simply a bigger car in general, the model 3 wins, the ease of use argument of the mach e fades away when you would compare it with the model y
Best thing? There's now a proper choice. 18 months ago I chose a Model 3 and I'm still really happy with it and it was easily the best option a year and a half ago. No misconceptions about it being perfect though and really pleased that I'll have a choice next time. I hate SUVs though, so I'll have a look at the Mach E, but I'd be surprised if that's what I end up with.
I had a model 3 for 7 months build quality and the budget interior were the biggest issues for me and the mach e seems to do a better job in both areas.
@@surfalcatraz9770 Funny, Tesla fans take a difference of opinion as "hating". It's true that a Tesla is a proper top tier EV, but, it is expensive for its simplicity. A modern interior design does not have to look so bland (3 & Y). The Mach-E interior is better designed and organized with a sport lux vibe. A new customer for Tesla is leaving a German brand, lux. Japanese, or can easily drops 45 plus grand on a car. These consumers have expectations for their interior cabin and only the Model S, can some what compete. Case in point see the Ioniq 5, E-Tron, Taycan, etc.
I really don't get the hype about Android Auto or Apple Carplay. Good EV's e. g. use navigation data to preheat or cool the battery before the charging stopp, which will lead to siginificantly better charging speeds. In general the navigation will be a lot better since it can include car data such as the SOC. Spotify is also integrated in cars like a Tesla, so listening to music won't be a problem either.
It’s being able to use things like Waze (which is important here in Australia because cops get you for going just a few km over) and also Spotify etc. etc.
Why do so many reviews ignore the voice command facility in the Tesla. It’s simple to use, quick, accurate and a proper alternative to a knob. The screen is not the only option !
The partition in the Mach E is removable. Also, the hatchback makes it easier to carry, load, and unload larger items in the Mach E. Tesla should make a liftback version of the Model 3. That shouldn't require any major retooling.
With a higher center of gravity, more weight and worse driving dynamics. If I wanted a poorer handling Model 3 the Y would have been an option. Since I didn't I chose the 3 with a trunk instead.
The technology in the Tesla is above all others. The way it shows you cars, pedestrians, objects...sentry mode...the advance pilot and full autopilot features...wifi network and all those things put the driver experience above the rest.
Love watching your videos. It’s absolutely bonkers how cars have moved on over the years. What’s even more bonkers is that Hoody you’re wearing !! You wear it well my friend .. Love it 👍🏽😀

You kind a left out the driver assist, which Tesla rule completely, and one pedal driving. Also the Tesla also have a off screen volume control, its conveniently located in the steering wheal.
I think you've been a bit kind to the Ford on this one. I mean I am not saying it is a bad car- but it is just so much more expensive than the Tesla that In the real world, buying it would feel like a waste of money. For the same money you could buy a Model 3 performance what is Insanely better than the Ford. Prehaps not on looks as that is a subjective category but in terms of performance, range, the charging network, and Auto drive software it really is a no contest
Well, Munro's assessment wasnt done when your comment was written. Lets look at his total rating for it now. Ford has 78 ECU's vs tesla 25, Ford has 85 fuses vs 0 on tesla. (the numbers are of the top of my head, but you can look it up yourself)
The lack of switches in the model3 is not an issue, 90% of the cars function can be controlled by voice including, wipers, lights, radio, glovebox , temperature, so much easier than reaching for a button or switch, my advice, test drive them both, do some proper research, then choose
I don't know how it works in the UK but in the US I'd assume the Ford is going to be heavily marked up above retail at the dealer and thus be well more expensive than the Model 3 which is not going to be marked up.
always been a fan of tesla but mach e has grown on me. went to see one today and really liked it. they just need to change their pricing structure. I want to upgrade to all the bells and whistles without selecting the long range model. electric boot lid is a must cos of my mrs' back issues. just waiting for the nissan ariya to finally make a decision. would be nice if tesla were to have a premium option for the standard range too. my bladder barely gives me 200 mile range.
Here's the comparison of the Mach-E to the Model Y: Mach-E - Exists in the UK. Model Y - Does not exist in the UK. Winner: Mach-E Blame Tesla for being so slow to make the Model Y available in Europe.
Using the touchscreen for some things in the Model 3 can be a bit fiddly, so use voice commands instead. Yes, even "open glovebox". There's also a physical volume control on the steering wheel.
Voice commands are slower and less reliable for simple tasks (like opening a glovebox), but can be useful for more complex operations that would require many button presses or lots of searching through menus. Ideally, you want a mixture, which is what most cars do. It just looks like Tesla are cheaping out to me since there's no reason not to have the best of both worlds.

Might be worth mentioning that the Mach-e didn't make the Moose test here in Sweden. Says a lot of the handling of the car. Also having the Super charging network in the Tesla makes it a no brainer for me. Would easily go with the Tesla.
Rory you are a great motoring journalist no question about that, and again a top video here. Slightly off the motoring subject though I'd like to ask where you got that top from as I really really like it, and I'd love to buy one myself as I have a French bulldog and I think that would suit me well. Thanks in advance ☺
we visited there last Oct. & it was awesome.. i've ordered the tri motor fsd ct & i can't wait for it to get here!! I may buy the S or the Y in the meantime..i got lots of solar & back up battery system as well. i love spaceX
I just don't like that tablet in the Tesla, and the minimalistic nature. Range is also still an issue for me, so I'll wait another 5 years to see where the tech takes us. I do drive a Zoe though as a daily driver for work and trips around town, but for long distanc family adventures we all jump in the Espace.
The Model 3 simply has more real-world history behind it. It shows up in little things, and most definitely in the OS. The Ford needs more iterations to make the ownership experience better day in and out. 3's don't brick when charging, and the OTA updates are transparent and largely flawless. The charging network (specially in the US) is also unmatched. I'd bet a dollar Rory would have a much clearer decision if he lived with both for an extended time. Ask Tesla owners what they think after 2-3 years.
Good vid. I've narrowed my choices down to the Mach E Premium ER AWD and the Tesla Model 3 LR. Which EV would you recommend for Canadian winters (Toronto)? I'd require the EV for two child seats and golf clubs. Not intended for road trips. I would also be doing the majority of charging at home. Also, there are no EV incentives in Ontario.
Both cars are great, but in Europe in 2021 *only the Tesla will be able to go everywhere* without any stress, ie as easily as an ICE car and with the performance and comfort of an EV. BTW the model 3 is cheaper, to buy and to run since Ionity is quite expansive. Anyway, both are fully electric so both are good choices for air quality and to help fight climate change.
But the MachE is more expensive to drive for every km. And the battery pack will get mere degradation for every km. And this is not by a small margin at all. The weigh is really not nice.
Excellent comparison. One of these is probably in my future in the next couple of years. Very useful information. Thorough, but I notice we didn't get a look at the trunk of each car.
Great review. But Rory should started to: 1 - mention that Tesla Model Y is not available in Europe (thanks Elon) 2 - mention that the car giveaway is only for Uk residents. As for the result: both great cars so it’s a matter of preference. That’s why the brands offer test drives 😁
Yo that sweatshirt looks exactly like my dog, where did you get it and/or would you be willing to send it to me as a huge fan of yours cause wow, that would be dope as hell. Or don't. Either way i fuck with that thing heavy
I'd slap money down right now on the Tesla model 3 if it had more physical controls for stuff like lights and windscreen wipers*, and Android Auto. * I wonder if since you can run a games controller you could jury rig external controls to get physical buttons.
Rory keeps going on about the lack of blind spot indicator on the Model 3.. the interface shows someone over taking and highlights them in red on the screen, it's very noticeable when driving if you actually have it set up properly.. as all owners do. It also shows them approaching from around 15m away.
For a family car mustang is clear winner. Other than the fact there both Eva these two cars are not really competitors. When you guys get the Y then there is a real competition

I’ll take the Mach e over a muskmobile
I'm not a fan of Tesla minimal design but the landscape screen is better than portrait surely
Not many people in the world can pull off a Romero Brito hoody. Hats off to you!
Another good review. I also appreciate that Rory pronounces the Ford with the proper translation. Mach- E rather than Mack-ee
Should be compared to Y now that it's available.
What about Irish viewers? We’re left out ☹️☹️. But we love AutoTrader anyway
Wow, cruising through the Irish countryside in a Tesla would be a dream. Maybe one day.
@@Tron-Jockey absolutely
Mustang Mach e looks way better, would definitely choose this in Rwd for more miles per charge ,what a gorgeous car 💚😍👌👍
I agree that the Mach-E looks better. But that's about it.
Great Comparison, ThanX!
Rory this could have been jelly against jam and I'd still click :)
Rory you are a great motoring journalist no question about that, and again a top video here.
Slightly off the motoring subject though I'd like to ask where you got that top from as I really really like it, and I'd love to buy one myself as I have a French bulldog and I think that would suit me well. Thanks in advance ☺
Why did you not take autopilot and sentry mode into account? :)
And safety
Can we change the shocks to make the road feel better?
Mach e have a lte Hotspot. Tesla does not have a Hotspot
we visited there last Oct. & it was awesome.. i've ordered the tri motor fsd ct & i can't wait for it to get here!! I may buy the S or the Y in the meantime..i got lots of solar & back up battery system as well. i love spaceX
I just don't like that tablet in the Tesla, and the minimalistic nature. Range is also still an issue for me, so I'll wait another 5 years to see where the tech takes us. I do drive a Zoe though as a daily driver for work and trips around town, but for long distanc family adventures we all jump in the Espace.
The Model 3 simply has more real-world history behind it. It shows up in little things, and most definitely in the OS. The Ford needs more iterations to make the ownership experience better day in and out. 3's don't brick when charging, and the OTA updates are transparent and largely flawless. The charging network (specially in the US) is also unmatched. I'd bet a dollar Rory would have a much clearer decision if he lived with both for an extended time. Ask Tesla owners what they think after 2-3 years.
Good vid. I've narrowed my choices down to the Mach E Premium ER AWD and the Tesla Model 3 LR. Which EV would you recommend for Canadian winters (Toronto)? I'd require the EV for two child seats and golf clubs. Not intended for road trips. I would also be doing the majority of charging at home. Also, there are no EV incentives in Ontario.
Both cars are great, but in Europe in 2021 *only the Tesla will be able to go everywhere* without any stress, ie as easily as an ICE car and with the performance and comfort of an EV. BTW the model 3 is cheaper, to buy and to run since Ionity is quite expansive. Anyway, both are fully electric so both are good choices for air quality and to help fight climate change.
This guy is awesome! Great review mate. Knob Gang 4 Life 💯🤙
But the MachE is more expensive to drive for every km. And the battery pack will get mere degradation for every km. And this is not by a small margin at all. The weigh is really not nice.
Excellent comparison. One of these is probably in my future in the next couple of years. Very useful information. Thorough, but I notice we didn't get a look at the trunk of each car.
That's my thinking as well, wait for more efficient batteries, better charging possibilities and cheaper prices.
Great review. But Rory should started to: 1 - mention that Tesla Model Y is not available in Europe (thanks Elon) 2 - mention that the car giveaway is only for Uk residents.
As for the result: both great cars so it’s a matter of preference. That’s why the brands offer test drives 😁
Yo that sweatshirt looks exactly like my dog, where did you get it and/or would you be willing to send it to me as a huge fan of yours cause wow, that would be dope as hell. Or don't. Either way i fuck with that thing heavy
I wish you compared the base trim MachE to the base Model 3 here, but good vid nonetheless.
Matter of preference. The mustang looks way better in my opinion. But I think range is one of the most important things in which case the tesla wins.
Why wouldn't you compare the Mach E to the Model Y if you're going to make a point about the Mach E being an "SUV"?
If i pay for shipping to my country will i be able to enter?👀 right hand drive is perfect. Great vid as always
Why didn't they compared it with the model Y? Some of the categories the model 3 lost would be solved by the model Y
There is no Model Y available in Europe yet.
Y is not available in UK. Also the Y is a 3 with a slight raised suspension and higher roof line. Not much different at all
I'm going for the Model 3 when I get my EV....but would this video comparison been more head to head by putting the Mach E up against a Model Y..?
Model Y is not available in the UK. Hence why we didn’t test it.
I'd slap money down right now on the Tesla model 3 if it had more physical controls for stuff like lights and windscreen wipers*, and Android Auto.
* I wonder if since you can run a games controller you could jury rig external controls to get physical buttons.
Interesting. What’s the prediction for depreciation on both after 3 years?.
What's a 3 year old iPhone worth?
@@cockpiss9260 Someone hasn't looked at the price of used Teslas lately. Their resale value is exceptional.
@@ymcpa73 That might just be because the used car market is nuts right now. My 2019 Subaru Forester is worth more than what I paid for it brand new!
Rory keeps going on about the lack of blind spot indicator on the Model 3.. the interface shows someone over taking and highlights them in red on the screen, it's very noticeable when driving if you actually have it set up properly.. as all owners do. It also shows them approaching from around 15m away.
Nice video as always but I think mach-e and model y would have been better to compare with
I don't think the UK had them at the time
For a family car mustang is clear winner. Other than the fact there both Eva these two cars are not really competitors. When you guys get the Y then there is a real competition
