    When comparing the A-Spec to the Type S, one feature of the Type S you left out is that it has Super Cruise. I ordered a Type S and Super Cruise was one of the primary drivers.

    Not sure I'd call this a performance bargain. Get a Blazer EV SS if you want power, or an RS or LT if you want basically everything to be better than this without quite as much power (RS is still a 6 second 0-60, EVs just always go fast). You can lease a Blazer EV RS for less than half of Acura's lease estimate on their website. They're the same platform. No clue what Honda is doing with this.

    I'd much rather have seen a phev or hybrid Acura suv so the tech could trickle down to Honda. Rebadged Chevy is not bad but definitely doesn't feel/look like a Honda or an Acura to me. I don't see buyers going after these at all. If anything its a quick bandaid to offer something...anything electric in Conus.

    In a dilema, i have ZDX on reservation. This car looks perfect except for GM battery and reliability. I don like Tesla.
    But the price difference of 15K with Tesla model Y makes me thinking on whether to go with this one or model Y.

      With Rivian, I don't know if they will still be there by that time.

    Introducing the Chevy Acura. What a joke. I will keep my 2010 OG ZDX! They should have maintained the original shape. That chrome strip across the top makes this car look like a hearse, especially in black. Swing and a miss if you ask me, and Acura seems to have sold out to Chevy, which is a mistake for a luxury brand.

    So I can get 2 Teslas for the same price. 😂 I just picked up my model Y dual motor for $44.6k, $32k after incentives in Colorado, so 2 would be $64k. I do like more competition but it needs to be priced appropriately. Then they will say no one wants to buy EVs because they are priced too high… 🙄

But it’s 1500 pounds heavier and 40% less efficient, it charges slower, while being the same size as a Model Y and slower. In that regard, is it worth approximately $35k more in my case in Colorado? No. 🤷🏻‍♂️

      @@LeatherandLuxuryCarsd yes, totally agree that the last gen model 3 is super stiff, I used to own one, but it was super fun to drive. The refreshed model rides much better. I now own a model Y, which is more comparable to this and it has the comfort suspension, which is much more comfortable. Just like other manufacturers, each Tesla rides differently. Overall, Teslas ride stiffer for better handling, similar to a BMW, but I find the model Y quite good.
