As a Tesla Model S owner, and former BMW owner, I can say without a doubt that the german build quality (BMW, Mercedes, Audi) is superior to Tesla.
However driving a Tesla feels like having the first iPhone, and everyone else is driving around in Nokias. The Mercedes S class does however come close, in my opinion.

Weird I find the opposite compared to my Porsche Macan or my girlfriends Evoque. The interior build quality is extremely poor on the Tesla and the giant screen looks tacky and difficult to use whilst driving.
- joezydeco 11y agoI've never known a VW owner that has not had electrical problems within the first 5 years of ownership. Just my own data point.
- arethuza 11y agoWell, my last 4 cars have all been VW Group (Passat, Golf, Golf, ŠKODA Yeti) and I've never had any problems with them - mind you I kept them for 3 years so they were all within warranty. Worst electrical problems we've had was with a Toyota my wife had - problems with the sunroof caused the instrument panel to fail!
- saiya-jin 11y agoneither BMW nor Mercs are in VW group (and god thanx for that!). Audi is, and generally, within those 3 brands, is considered as the cheapest, least luxurious, least fun alternative (R8 is an exception :))
