This largely reads as a paid ad. There are plenty of numbers comparing old and new models, yet very few when they compare to Tesla. It would be interesting to read a more neutral comparison though.
- reitzensteinm 10y agoIf they heavily compared it with the Tesla, it would be a sign that the technology isn't ready for mainstream adoption. Only enthusiasts set on buying an EV will sit down and compare the two given the 2x price difference. For most, the purchasing decision will be squarely against petrol vehicles in the same class.
- forgetsusername 10y ago>yet very few when they compare to Tesla What Tesla? The one that costs twice as much? Or the one that doesn't exist yet? This is beside the point that Tesla is mentioned numerous times in the article.
- johnm1019 10y agoWhile I agree the tone of the article is a paid ad, the reason you can't compare it to a model 3 is because the model 3 doesn't exist yet. Comparing it to a Model S is ok in the sense that you _can_ compare a Cessna 172 to a Learjet, but why? Different markets, different price points.
