The Model 3 is an overpriced, shoddily-assembled car. The only reason it’s the “affordable” one is because of the huge amount of tax incentives E-vehicles get. If you had to pay the actual cost of a Model 3 you would not be calling it a “fantastic car”.
I know it’s hard for the Tesla cultists to accept, rather like the Apple cultists before them, but Tesla products are not good products for the price.
