If you want a "real", no-compromise EV, there really isn't any alternative to Tesla. For me, the killer feature was a supercharging network. Without it, you have an expensive toy unless you are just going to potter around town on short trips. Even though most day I just charge my car at home, there's no way I would have bought a Tesla without the supercharging network. Re. panel gaps and build quality, yes, the outside build/paint quality is about average (the seats are _very_ nice) but this is not why I bought a Tesla. I wanted the next generation vehicle tech and a car that can really go without making a fuss. Had I wanted absolutely even panel gaps, I would have bought a German or Japanese gas car. Re. OTA updates, my 3+ year old car feels it was bought this year because of OTA updates. I have no desire to acquire a new model because the newer model will practically be identical to mine, apart from the mileage. [edit:typos]
