You should have made the name of your title "15 Electric Cars Customers Can't Get". A friend of mine waited almost a year for her ID4, then she canceled and switched to the the Ionic 5 and has been waiting more than 6 months so far. The dealer said if she wants it, she has to take whatever color and package she can get, or they will pass her over for the next customer.
I have an Audi etron for 27 months. Great ownership experience and I leased the vehicle on a whim and now I’m a convert for all electrics. The range is around 250 miles and that’s more than enough. I just charge it up when I get home. The total lack of required service is awesome that is often over looked. Evs are quick for everyday driving. Don’t need autonomous driving. I don’t need my family transport to accelerate quicker to 60 mph in less than 5.1 seconds. This is a great vehicle and we all have great choices. I’m a ev convert and I owe it all to Alex. He cracks me up.
This is the problem with only looking at individual traits and not considering the vehicle as a whole. Saying one car outdoes another in one measurable area isn't really useful without further context.
It's worth considering that the claimed "18 minute" charging time with Hyundai and Kia vehicles come with a few caveats, like _if_ you can find a location that supports 350 kW charging, and _if_ there's a stall available (which is only worsened by the fact that third party networks often only have two 350 kW stalls), and _if_ it's working and supplying full power (broken or throttled stalls are all too common with third party networks), and _if_ there's no errors in the communication between the vehicle and charger, and _if_ the vehicle doesn't slow down charging because the battery is too cold, too hot, or just decide to end the session early due to some bug of unknown origin, then yes, you'll charge faster than you would in a Tesla. But remember, each minute spent moving to a different charger or battling with errors is charging time lost. It's easy for the claimed "18 minute" charge time to extend due to unforseen circumstances.
And Hyundai and Kia are currently being sued for overheating of their charge ports. It's easy to claim your product does this or that. Then there's reality.
thanks @directorjustin. It is learning from you and others while I was researching buying an electric car, that helped me decide that for my area, and my budget, it was best for the foreseeable future for me to stick with a hybrid. I do feel, though, that the day is coming when the electric vehicle and charger industries will work out the kinks and electric will reduce the need or desire for fossil fueled vehicles to almost nil, and help reduce global warming.
People need to stop with ¨the top whatever ranking ¨thing. When purchasing anything, there is no top or best for everybody. There is what is best for you. So you need create a list of your priorities (that probably looks different for everyone), and find the best option for you. In my case was a model Y LR 7 seater. My priorities were 1 - compact suv. 2 - could seat up to 7 for short distances, if needed. 3 - Easy for the wife to deal with. 4 - Minimum maintenance. 5 - good value. So the only priority that I could not fulfill with the model Y was good value. It is far from a good value (at 56K with options). But it is really easy to use, do not need to go to the gas station (my wife was robbed at gunpoint at a gas station), does not require regular maintenance (so I don´t need to take time off to go change oil and filter, for the wife´s car). Range was not such a big deal, because it is used mostly around town. Rarely do we need to use more than 200 miles in 1 day. Never used a supercharger. 100% home charged. I still have an ICE vehicle, and I am not sure the country as a whole is ready to go full electric. But so far we are enjoying the ev experience.
The issue still is that all of the EVs mentioned are only "better than Tesla" in one, maybe 2 categories, and then when it's 2 categories better the price is significantly higher than the next closest Tesla - Tesla for now still the benchmark for overall value.
Yeah, you might as well put an electric train on the list since it can haul more people, an electric scooter on the list because it has a smaller turning radius, and an electric drone because it can fly. I'm glad the competition is increasing and improving. But a comparison based on the overall package and focusing on vehicles at least being somewhat available in numbers would be more worthwhile.
It may change in the future but no other car offers what Tesla does across the board in a single vehicle: range charging time Supercharging network (convenience, location, speed, reliability) seamless OTA update improvements and bug fixes performance space and capacity no-dealer hassle efficiency acceleration safety Basically a balanced capability not lacking in any aspect. Which is why Tesla is king today.
Comparing electric cars is tricky. Car A charges 20-80% in 20 minutes. Car B does the same in 30 minutes, so it's worse than Car A. Oh but wait, car B has a bigger battery. Not Apples to Apples. I don't think I heard anything about efficiency in this comparison. How many miles does each car go for each minute of charging? And so on . . .
This 20-80 is one of the metrics. Add to that the epa range and you get an idea of how far you will get before you need to rapid charge and then for how long. You can then compare any car against any other for a given road trip. Or just get a Tesla
I think a lot of BEVs can do 1 thing better than Tesla, but none can do everything as good as Tesla does. It's the full package. It's getting closer but just not there yet. I am looking forward to more options with a reliable charging network. I am still hopeful for the upcoming electric Dodge Charger. I do take issue when saying that the Hyundai/Kias charge that fast, they never do because their thermal management is so bad and the 350kw chargers never work. Other makers have a much more consistent experience than the Hyundai/Kia vehicles.
Man, Tesla in Europe at the moment is unbeatable. 39000 Euros for the model 3, The Ionic 6 is 59000 and doesnt add much, almost all electric cars are above the 39000 euros, even the Hyundai Kona...If you are talking about interior quality, yea, there are better than the tesla, but cost way too much. Unfortunately there is no competition for tesla here at the moment...
I DOUBT THAT .... HOW LONG HAS THEY BEEN OUT,,, NOT AS LONG AS TESLA, TESLA IS STILL NUMBER #1......... NOTHING HAS BEEN OUT LONG ENOUGH TO MATTER.. I BOUGHT A 2017 BOLT.. I CANT AFFORD A TESLA
Don't own an EV but test drove an Ionic 5 an EV6 and a Tesla on the same day and quite honestly couldn't believe what the Tesla was like. Skeleton in a box just about sums it it up perfectly.
I was absolutely not motivated to get any of these cars. One might appear to beat Tesla in a single specification but you ignore all other specifications and move on to a different car and a different single specification, ignoring the fact that Tesla remains the best overall assembly of all specifications in the arena of electric vehicles. Your headline is misleading and false.
I don't know. Alex was really weak against Warren Redlich and I was rooting for Alex. I just don't that he has the debating chops. I woukd definitely watch that though.
Alex does not know enough details about EVs to debate anyone. That’s why he got eaten alive by Warren Redlich, someone who studies and knows the details.
Have you ever reviewed the Aptera EV. It's base product will be out this yr. with a range of 400 miles. Plus it has solar panels and waited for 40 miles/day charging. I live in San Diego county. We always have sun. Later as production increase, Aptera will have an EV that will go 1000 mils. Drawback, it's only a 2-seater, plus a dog.
Curiosity question. If I need to drive my ev farther than it’s range and it tells me how far and where to charge, will it tell me if the charge station is open for me to use? Will I have to wait longer than the allotted time to charge because other people are charging their ev? I can schedule and budget my time for charging batteries but if others are waiting in line ahead of me how can I adjust for second in line vs eighth? It won’t matter how long it takes to charge my ev but how I fall in the line.
I feel like the ioniq 6 should have been mentioned for more of these. the long range version drives & charges faster, and on the highest trim you can get the speed and what not displayed in front of you on the windshield.
Good Stuff. Driving my Lucid Air GT for over a year now and wouldn't consider taking a Tesla to replace it. In the next couple months the Lucid Pure, the entry level version, will start deliveries with a slightly longer range and much more comfortable interior than a base Tesla Model S but for $6,000 less.
To be the best EV the key is availability, then value for money, a topic not talked about. Speed is a none point, who can use this feature to the drivers benefit. No one talks about safety, vision, why?
It’s a shame none of these can be profitable produced in high volume. How long can these companies pay people tens of thousands of dollars to buy these cars.
@@EforElectricCome on Alex, stop lying to the viewers of your lame channel. You know that only Tesla & BYD make a profit on their EVs, and everyone else is losing big $$$. They also struggle mightily to make EVs in high volume to get economies of scale for reducing production costs.
Saw the entire EV Sector Glowing Green this morning...now I know why...It was this video...Keep Up the Great Work. EV Trucks.. .EV Buses....EV Autos and EVTOL Jets All Charging UP Higher in July. .. Thumbs UP Video / Comments...Thanks.
Others beat Tesla in individual categories, but which beat it in all, or even most, categories? The answer seems to be none, which means Tesla still beats them all. I've got no dog in this hunt, but this matches my research. There are better alternatives at a FAR higher price, or worse alternatives at a lower price.
Well Lucid beats it in the most important categories. There are also deal breakers in Teslas that some of us would not want to touch. But I still don't really understand your comment. It sounds a little bitter but I have no idea why do you even care
@@EforElectricmost important category is battery dude.. do some research lol, not to mention that all ev companies except for Tesla are underwater when it comes to actually making money. They are where Tesla was 15yrs ago.
Alex, thank you for your interesting and entertaining show as always :-) all of the vehicles you mentioned definitely had capabilities or options that were better than a Tesla. However, each also had negative or undesirable traits, such as being exorbitantly expensive, fast charging at a slow rate, or not being able to find a working high speed charger. Overall, after owning a plug-in hybrid and two other EVs, I finally settled on a model Y, because it had the most positive traits, and fewer negative traits than other vehicles Also, the $10k price drop was a definite incentive :-)
I too have a PHEV and despite all the new EVs from legacy automakers, the sad truth is there aren't any I would be fully comfortable trading for (even if it was free!) with public charging still being so lackluster.
@@directorjustinWow, you really don’t know anything about Tesla or their charging network. Some people will always find any bad reason for not owning an EV. Please stay with your ICE car with the tiny electric motor and keep polluting.
Man driving that cars is like driving a 3.86 driving a Tesla is driving a IMac Some of that cars are just cars with electric engines Tesla is technology.
I have been driving BEVs for 14 years & I'm on my 5th. I have never considered a Tesla. My current car is made in Europe, has excellent range, tows trailers has 4WD. My wife also drives an European electric vehicle. I don't want self driving or rapid acceleration thank you.
Interesting that you don’t mention the EVs you are driving instead of a Tesla. Had you bought a Tesla there would not be a need for 4 more EVs, but continue driving something inferior.
@@tomdrewenskus8167 My first BEV was first registered in 2004 & had lead acid batteries. At the beginning I bought used BEVs because I was using them in parallel with ICE vehicles. As a farmer I needed large towing 4WD Jeeps and nobody was making anything like that with electric drive trains. My current vehicle is a Skoda Enyaq IV80x which suits my motoring needs. My wife drives a Renault Zoe 135GT, an absolutely fabulous EV.
Whenever I hear someone say “this is Tesla done right” or “This car is better than Tesla” then shows me a vehicle that looks exactly like a Tesla instantly makes me think of Android Users justifying their phone copying THE ENTIRE DESIGN AND FUNCTIONALITY of an Apple iPhone. I’m sorry but Tesla is tier 1 and everything else is tiers 2 and below.
One of the biggest issues you don’t discuss, if you go on longer drives, in the total lack of reliable charging infrastructure, for anything other than Tesla. Once Tesla opens their chargers to other brands I can consider them. Simply stated Electrify America, EV go etc are totally unreliable.
Have you tried buying one of these cars that is BETTER than Tesla? After they get half a million cars on the road then a comparison would be valid. Remember how great the id 4 was when first introduced? Interesting video but not convincing.
My my now somebody has to make a realistic observation and deflate the competition. Patiently watching for the Roadster to come on line, can't imagine what treats and specs that will have.
so your saying it took the individual strengths of 15 cars combined to beat a tesla. i can live with that. Though from safety perspective i think tesla is still king.
Who cares about Lucid, they are not producing in any volume and are way to expensive. Not to mention that their business model doesn't seems to work well. Also they are so much behind in software...
If a product has been around for a while and has been selling that well, it must have a reason: It‘s the sum of all things, the overall package, combined with a good price. I don‘t want to even mention, that buying a car has also an emotional aspect to it. I just dont get the point if doing this kind of Anti Tesla content (?). What is the target audience? Or is it just entertainment and for the clicks (then, yes, it works 😅)
@@EforElectric Alex, this is exactly what you are saying. Lucid is better at range. Hyundai is better at charging speed. Mercedes is better at autonomous driving. All these are individual categories where Tesla is not best per the specs. But overall right now there is no doubt Tesla is the best - not for everyone in every circumstance, just in general overall.
100 times? I’m not quite sure how something with a thousand moving parts can be 100 times more reliable than something with a dozen. Maybe we should switch to diesel powered phones and gas powered laptops.
Read the other comments people are saying. Overall the Teslas are still better. They don't do everything better but collectively as a whole they are better than the other cars. Tesla fans will be fine because they still selling more pure evs than any other brand and it ain't even close.
There is no "losing it" happening ...of course there are individual categories where cars offer better features or functions than Tesla, the issue still is that all of the EVs mentioned are only "better than Tesla" in one, maybe 2 categories, and when it's 2 categories better then price is significantly higher than the next closest Tesla - Tesla for now still the benchmark for overall value. That is why Tesla will be the best selling EV in the world for a while to come - the competition is not quite there yet as a complete package. Reply
@@TB-up4xiagree and that's why I hate these types of videos because it paints a picture as if other cars are better overall and they ain't even close. Not sure but I think only a few companjes will ever get there as a complete package like tesla as many are still losing money. Only BYD is making at scale with minimal money made per ev and I'm sure that's because of the hybrids. I think they are still losing in their pure evs. Every other company is losing money in evs so I wonder if they'll go bankrupt first before they can make profits on evs especially since ice sales are gonna start to collapse. I got a model y performance and best car I've ever had. Love it. I don't want to drive my ice Camry anymore either!
I have too many videos out there warning everybody about Tesla's bad reliability and long times and high expenses of repairs. I can't repeat myself in every video
Alex, Tesla doesn’t have some of these features because they are not the most important. It like criticizing Apple for not having touchscreen MacBooks. Touchscreen would be good the Mac users but Apple would rather put the emphasis on features that matter more like performance, long lasting battery and security. Other automakers are trying to impress buyers with all these gimmicks while not delivering on what is ore important. Tesla does not have the best range but it has good enough range and other features that make them the best all around car brand. I’m sorry I don’t agree with you. The only car I would like more is an Aprera.
Tesla has been stagnant. Slowly iteration on technology from 10 years ago with software updates and small hardware changes. Feels like the iPhone Every 5 years or so the iPhone goes through a major refresh, catches up to the competition and passes most phone makers Judging from the recent Model S & X refresh, I don’t know if Tesla has it in them to take such a leap as Apple, a yoke with capacitive buttons, no stalks or physical horn doesn’t cut it
Lmao. Stagnant right. Check their efficiency of the vehicles in 2012 model S and current model 3/Y. Check the 0-60. Check the number of superchargers available. Meanwhile also check the seats which are super comfortable compared to 2012 Model s. Now start checking the build quality. Kindly also open the hood and check the octo valve heat pump which is leap ahead of the superbottle which was itself a big leap from standard. Now check if autopilot and fsd were available in 2012. After checking all these, kindly also go through the giant gigacastings and structural battery pack. Similar exterior design doesn't equal to being stagnant.
@@nilesh69420 Others are improving, Tesla is not. For example - currently Kia EV6, Ioniq5/6 can charge faster than Tesla 3/Y. Supercharger aspect is a non-issue, since they are opening it. In Europe, there are plenty of options, like Ionity Network, number of chargers grew a lot. When it comes to autopilot - there actually have been a downgrade, since they removed the sensors, causing issues like phantom breaking. Structural battery pack and gigacastings were just scams to drive the hype for TSLA stock, there's no benefit from this yet.
@@Lascarnn EV6 is a great vehicle but if they can't make them enough, it's not gonna move the needle. Opening superchargers to all doesn't mean they haven't done the work. It is extremely difficult to build a reliable network of chargers. I agree that removing sensors is not a good decision short term. Let's see how it works long term. About gigacastings and structural battery pack, I will refer you to Sandy Munro about potential cost savings.
This problem is mainly in the US, everywhere else the market is operating as usual, unless you want some exotic specs, there are plenty of EVs available to buy in Europe.
Actually Tesla is horrible at that. Dealerships provide service and most car makers have plenty of them. Tesla's awful service and lack of locations is a good enough reason on its own not to buy a Tesla
You always provides such great information however, I’m really getting annoyed. I realize that English is your second language please up your game and look up the word AND when it comes to numbers and figures.
technically everything would be better than tesla based on all the designs coming out, but everyone else is stupid to tesla because no one makes vehicles that go longer than them still. If ya cant beat them in range dont bother bringing more over priced junk to the market
Tesla is the most valuable car company because it is so over valued its ridiculas. The bubble will pop , it 🎉always does. FSD is not borderline a scam , its 100% a scam .
@@PhxElecAuto No they don't Panasonic make them in the USA and China provide them elsewhere. Tesla does however have a pilot line for 4680s, mostly unsuccessful, with high failure rates
EV's are OK for neighborhood trips, not for taking a vacation in it. What about the road taxes they don't pay for? When you run out of gas, you usually have a gas container in the truck/car filled with gas. If your EV runs out of power, what do you do? Get out your solar/wind generator out of the trunk?
People seriously run out of gas so often they keep a filled gas can in the trunk? Unless the gas gauge and gas light are *both* broken, I think that’s a driver problem, not a vehicle problem.
6 years and have never run out of power. Maybe clueless fools would run out of gas or electricity need to buy a horse. Any place that has power could give them a few miles without walking to a gas station. Okay Nancy
mercedes eqxx 1200 km. toyota solid state battery range 745 miles 930 miles. China built solid state battery range 745 miles 930 miles. solid state battery fasy charging below 10 minute.
My parents have an E vehicles. They live in northern Wisconsin. There e vehicles was dead most of the winter. I asked why they were driving it. My dad didn't wanna talk about it. Its because in the cold winter, the battery don't last long lol
If EV’s are so good why is The State forcing adoption. Oh I get it, if you lived in China or the old Soviet Union your mindset might be to take a knee and submit. This is Cowboy Country and we’re not partial to taking a knee to anyone, anybody or certainly not a State entity. You wanna drive a half assed vehicle have it son but stop telling me I have to. 15 minute fill times at best and only to 80 percent. Like driving in the snow? Good luck you just lost 1/3 of your already paltry range. Super hot outside. Same deal. A giant step in the wrong direction for a problem/narrative designed to screw the USA into the ground by getting us off cheap abundant and clean fossil fuels and into China controlled e for electric. Hard pass!!!
Seems like with the new report about tesla gaming it’s algorithms to show more range, it seems like a lot of automakers can beat them in actual projected range
Dude you're completely clueless. Longer range means nothing if the rest of the car sucks. Teslas are the safest and have a proven track record. Its amazin how tesla can have 250 mile range for 50k and another ev has a 300 mile range for 80- 250k and you think that makes it better? Lol What kind of car do you think tesla could produce for 300k price tag like Lucid? And you forget teslas mission statement. To make evs affordable for EVERYONE not just the rich
Tesla beats Lucid and their price points all day long, I don't have an EV but all I have seen and researched so far I would only go with Tesla still today. There is no design and network that is as nice as Tesla so far. Alot of the other EVs are just ugly or don't look good like Tesla's.
My thoughts exactly. Used to have nice balanced EV News reporting but now it's just, (unwarranted), Tesla Bashing at every opportunity. Whatever gets the clicks I suppose.
While I do agree with certain aspects, I believe it's valuable to consider opposing viewpoints. Despite Alex's frequent criticisms of Tesla, I find his channel educational, which is why I continue to follow it. I strive not to confine myself within an echo chamber. Even after watching this video, I maintain that Tesla remains the best overall car option. Nevertheless, I must admit that some features from other automakers sound appealing. Looking ahead, I am excited about the prospects of electric cars and would appreciate a HUD in Tesla vehicles as an added touch. It would be fantastic if they could develop an ultra-long-range model, perhaps reaching the low 400-mile range. All in all, the future of electric cars appears promising and bright.
It's very refreshing to watch a channel like this that draws a slightly different picture than all the Tesla fanboys channels that do nothing but fueling a hype around Tesla and trash talking everyone else. Extremely biased and only reporting what is good for Tesla or bad for other brands and keeping their mouth shut if it's the other way around. Sorry, but that's just too obvious and rather boring over time.
Yet another anti-Tesla clickbait title. For those who don't know, this guy had a hissy fit and sold his Tesla, then bought a Volkswagen that promptly broke down.
Most tsla drivers are the previous Prius drivers, I don’t understand why they brag about TSlA’s fast acceleration, they are some of the slowest and most frustrating drivers on the road.
This is only true to USA not the rest of the world... there are a lot of other brand that are not sold in USA that are way better than tesla ... so the tittle should I clude USA in it ...
Dude, you should talk abt battery , that’s where the major difference is.. the rest is irrelevant. You didn’t even mention the charging network of Tesla.. lol and that electrify America chargers are unreliable, broken and only pretend to be fast chargers.. good luck taking a road trip with a non Tesla car that’s not able to use superchargers..
@@s.argiro I am comparing side-by-side in each category. So your apples and oranges accusation makes no sense. Anyway, I understand you're unhappy with this video but I don't think your comment helps me make better videos. So we'll just have to agree to disagree
I own a 2022 Tesla Model Y Long Range, and I don't recommend electric cars to anyone. Most Americans want BIG cars/SUVs/Vans/Trucks and EVs are not there yet So wait 5 years and see if EVs even make it. Personally, I doubt it and they will be like diesel cars - maybe 15% of the total fleet. There is nothing that special about an EV over an ICE car
Actually if you have level 2 home charging it's a game changer - it actually does everything better than an ICE car. No more going to gas stations, 100% full car every morning, I can preheat the cabin, seats, steering wheel inside a locked garage ready for me when it's -5 outside and it is 1/4 the operating cost. What's not to love. I have owned 42 cars in my lifetime from high end Audis BMWs MBs to budget Toyotas and Kias....that's 40 ICE, 1 PHEV and 1 BEV - I can't see myself ever slumming it by owning another ICE car in my lifetime. The BEV is the most convenient car I have ever owned (and yes I have done a 1200m road trip and it took exactly the same time as in my ICE vehice).

I don't think I heard anything about efficiency in this comparison. How many miles does each car go for each minute of charging? And so on . . .
Which EV charges faster?
This 20-80 is one of the metrics. Add to that the epa range and you get an idea of how far you will get before you need to rapid charge and then for how long. You can then compare any car against any other for a given road trip.
Or just get a Tesla
If the car is NOT available, then it's not better. Also if the car is more expensive than Tesla, then it's not better for my bank account.
in 12+ different dimensions - T is the BEST „compromise“ (AVG over all dims).
Lol T is a cheap low quality car
"....with the Chevy Bolt no longer looking like a compliance car." 😂😅🤣😅😂
I think a lot of BEVs can do 1 thing better than Tesla, but none can do everything as good as Tesla does. It's the full package. It's getting closer but just not there yet. I am looking forward to more options with a reliable charging network. I am still hopeful for the upcoming electric Dodge Charger. I do take issue when saying that the Hyundai/Kias charge that fast, they never do because their thermal management is so bad and the 350kw chargers never work. Other makers have a much more consistent experience than the Hyundai/Kia vehicles.
Tesla is junk
Man, Tesla in Europe at the moment is unbeatable. 39000 Euros for the model 3, The Ionic 6 is 59000 and doesnt add much, almost all electric cars are above the 39000 euros, even the Hyundai Kona...If you are talking about interior quality, yea, there are better than the tesla, but cost way too much. Unfortunately there is no competition for tesla here at the moment...
I DOUBT THAT .... HOW LONG HAS THEY BEEN OUT,,, NOT AS LONG AS TESLA, TESLA IS STILL NUMBER #1......... NOTHING HAS BEEN OUT LONG ENOUGH TO MATTER.. I BOUGHT A 2017 BOLT.. I CANT AFFORD A TESLA
Agree now if Tesla could get their assembly fit&finish in tact
Don't own an EV but test drove an Ionic 5 an EV6 and a Tesla on the same day and quite honestly couldn't believe what the Tesla was like. Skeleton in a box just about sums it it up perfectly.
I drove them all and ended up buying the tesla. Why? Better and chargers almost everywhere.
I was absolutely not motivated to get any of these cars. One might appear to beat Tesla in a single specification but you ignore all other specifications and move on to a different car and a different single specification, ignoring the fact that Tesla remains the best overall assembly of all specifications in the arena of electric vehicles. Your headline is misleading and false.
I'm in love with EVs
Musk is toxic , like Trump in Europe. Tesla is therefore Trump...vomit
Only 3 brands of EV’s generate profit … and tesla is one of them (VW + Mercedes being the other two).
I’ll continue to stack TSLA for now
I'd be amazed if German brands were making large amounts as they are so far behind in the EV game in terms of efficiency.
Man, I would love to see a debate between you and the guys from Now You Know, though they don't seem like the debating type!
They’re just Tesla fanbois with zero credibility.
I don't know. Alex was really weak against Warren Redlich and I was rooting for Alex. I just don't that he has the debating chops. I woukd definitely watch that though.
Alex does not know enough details about EVs to debate anyone. That’s why he got eaten alive by Warren Redlich, someone who studies and knows the details.
Have you ever reviewed the Aptera EV. It's base product will be out this yr. with a range of 400 miles. Plus it has solar panels and waited for 40 miles/day charging. I live in San Diego county. We always have sun.
Later as production increase, Aptera will have an EV that will go 1000 mils.
Drawback, it's only a 2-seater, plus a dog.
100 other ev,s add them al together and they still wouldn't be able to make a vehicle between them as efficient, and technically advanced as any Tesla
Curiosity question. If I need to drive my ev farther than it’s range and it tells me how far and where to charge, will it tell me if the charge station is open for me to use? Will I have to wait longer than the allotted time to charge because other people are charging their ev? I can schedule and budget my time for charging batteries but if others are waiting in line ahead of me how can I adjust for second in line vs eighth? It won’t matter how long it takes to charge my ev but how I fall in the line.
I feel like the ioniq 6 should have been mentioned for more of these. the long range version drives & charges faster, and on the highest trim you can get the speed and what not displayed in front of you on the windshield.
My pal waited 2 years for his Porsche 911. They have been making cars 75 years.
Good Stuff. Driving my Lucid Air GT for over a year now and wouldn't consider taking a Tesla to replace it. In the next couple months the Lucid Pure, the entry level version, will start deliveries with a slightly longer range and much more comfortable interior than a base Tesla Model S but for $6,000 less.
Hopefully they can stay in business
Tesla still has the best charging network, by far.
Only relevant for the USA.
To be the best EV the key is availability, then value for money, a topic not talked about. Speed is a none point, who can use this feature to the drivers benefit. No one talks about safety, vision, why?

Others beat Tesla in individual categories, but which beat it in all, or even most, categories? The answer seems to be none, which means Tesla still beats them all.

Alex, thank you for your interesting and entertaining show as always :-) all of the vehicles you mentioned definitely had capabilities or options that were better than a Tesla. However, each also had negative or undesirable traits, such as being exorbitantly expensive, fast charging at a slow rate, or not being able to find a working high speed charger. Overall, after owning a plug-in hybrid and two other EVs, I finally settled on a model Y, because it had the most positive traits, and fewer negative traits than other vehicles Also, the $10k price drop was a definite incentive :-)
I too have a PHEV and despite all the new EVs from legacy automakers, the sad truth is there aren't any I would be fully comfortable trading for (even if it was free!) with public charging still being so lackluster.

One of the biggest issues you don’t discuss, if you go on longer drives, in the total lack of reliable charging infrastructure, for anything other than Tesla. Once Tesla opens their chargers to other brands I can consider them. Simply stated Electrify America, EV go etc are totally unreliable.

There good for putting around the hood. But if u travel alot, gas or diesel is the way to go. Gas vehicle are 100 times more reliable

Read the other comments people are saying. Overall the Teslas are still better. They don't do everything better but collectively as a whole they are better than the other cars. Tesla fans will be fine because they still selling more pure evs than any other brand and it ain't even close.
There is no "losing it" happening ...of course there are individual categories where cars offer better features or functions than Tesla, the issue still is that all of the EVs mentioned are only "better than Tesla" in one, maybe 2 categories, and when it's 2 categories better then price is significantly higher than the next closest Tesla - Tesla for now still the benchmark for overall value. That is why Tesla will be the best selling EV in the world for a while to come - the competition is not quite there yet as a complete package.

Alex, Tesla doesn’t have some of these features because they are not the most important. It like criticizing Apple for not having touchscreen MacBooks. Touchscreen would be good the Mac users but Apple would rather put the emphasis on features that matter more like performance, long lasting battery and security. Other automakers are trying to impress buyers with all these gimmicks while not delivering on what is ore important. Tesla does not have the best range but it has good enough range and other features that make them the best all around car brand. I’m sorry I don’t agree with you. The only car I would like more is an Aprera.
Tesla has been stagnant. Slowly iteration on technology from 10 years ago with software updates and small hardware changes. Feels like the iPhone
Every 5 years or so the iPhone goes through a major refresh, catches up to the competition and passes most phone makers
Judging from the recent Model S & X refresh, I don’t know if Tesla has it in them to take such a leap as Apple, a yoke with capacitive buttons, no stalks or physical horn doesn’t cut it
Tesla is no Apple. Elon Musk will never be a Steve Jobs-never.
Lmao. Stagnant right. Check their efficiency of the vehicles in 2012 model S and current model 3/Y. Check the 0-60. Check the number of superchargers available. Meanwhile also check the seats which are super comfortable compared to 2012 Model s. Now start checking the build quality. Kindly also open the hood and check the octo valve heat pump which is leap ahead of the superbottle which was itself a big leap from standard. Now check if autopilot and fsd were available in 2012. After checking all these, kindly also go through the giant gigacastings and structural battery pack. Similar exterior design doesn't equal to being stagnant.

This problem is mainly in the US, everywhere else the market is operating as usual, unless you want some exotic specs, there are plenty of EVs available to buy in Europe.
Actually Tesla is horrible at that. Dealerships provide service and most car makers have plenty of them. Tesla's awful service and lack of locations is a good enough reason on its own not to buy a Tesla

EV's are OK for neighborhood trips, not for taking a vacation in it. What about the road taxes they don't pay for? When you run out of gas, you usually have a gas container in the truck/car filled with gas. If your EV runs out of power, what do you do? Get out your solar/wind generator out of the trunk?
People seriously run out of gas so often they keep a filled gas can in the trunk? Unless the gas gauge and gas light are *both* broken, I think that’s a driver problem, not a vehicle problem.

My thoughts exactly. Used to have nice balanced EV News reporting but now it's just, (unwarranted), Tesla Bashing at every opportunity. Whatever gets the clicks I suppose.
While I do agree with certain aspects, I believe it's valuable to consider opposing viewpoints. Despite Alex's frequent criticisms of Tesla, I find his channel educational, which is why I continue to follow it. I strive not to confine myself within an echo chamber. Even after watching this video, I maintain that Tesla remains the best overall car option. Nevertheless, I must admit that some features from other automakers sound appealing. Looking ahead, I am excited about the prospects of electric cars and would appreciate a HUD in Tesla vehicles as an added touch. It would be fantastic if they could develop an ultra-long-range model, perhaps reaching the low 400-mile range. All in all, the future of electric cars appears promising and bright.
It's very refreshing to watch a channel like this that draws a slightly different picture than all the Tesla fanboys channels that do nothing but fueling a hype around Tesla and trash talking everyone else. Extremely biased and only reporting what is good for Tesla or bad for other brands and keeping their mouth shut if it's the other way around. Sorry, but that's just too obvious and rather boring over time.
