I want a tesla fast ev that isn't a tesla but is tesla money.
The main thing is old school manufacturers insist on having 12 million different tiers and options. I'm close to caving in and getting a new car for the first time because my last (recent) second hand one has failed me and can't handle a hill if I'm carrying a bit of stuff/people (it's a 1.0 ecoboost engine). I would then definitely go electric but it's annoyingly hard to beat Tesla especially if you want the bells and whistles, which I would if I'm gonna drop 40k€+ on a new car I'd plan on keeping a long time. None compete with a model Y if you go for a full option trim.
