PROOF Tesla is Best & CHEAPEST EV to Buy! 
Наука
Fisker? They shouldn't consider buying an EV from a company going bankrupt. No one will service it.
Came here to say the same. Counts for all struggling companies but also for Chinese EV's trying new grounds in EU and US. They are depending on existing dealerships who ask high premium on sales and these companies have basically 0 service outside of China.
Model three SR and a model Y LR. I will never go back to a dinosaur juice automobile.
Tesla emergency auto braking system is on all the time even when driving manually. It helps avoided many accidents you don’t usually hear about.
Every time I hop into our Tesla Model 3, tap in my unlock code and wait for the seat to move to my preprogrammed position (while fastening my seatbelt), the sparse interior reminds me of what I believe is Tesla’s primary reason for success: Their focus on the things that REALY matter and doing them to the VERY best of their ability. If I had written software with that in mind, I would have spent less time making it look pretty and earning a lot more money than I did!
I have had people get into my model Y, which I use as a Lyft and tell me that they had been looking at an EV and they kept coming back to the Tesla
Don’t forget Tesla also has access to all the CCS charges to now
I still have that casio watch
I almost spit out my drink when he said they were considering a Fisker.
Were they considering a Pontiac or Saturn as well?
Fisker? I’m glad you steered them away from that I would never buy a car made by a scissors company. 😜
So, I just bought a 2022 M3 with FSD and performance upgrade included. I did so because that's exactly what I wanted in a used tesla if I decided to go used. The price(if you consider the potential value of fsd) was a complete no brainer!
I live in the sticks, in an area that I'm sure FSD is unfamiliar with. After 12.3.3, the only interventions I had in a 60 mile drive have been when I was on a 2 lane divided highway in a 65mph zone approaching a car doing 54. I simply have no patience for that. So I have to disengage for slow drivers. Other than that, and piss poor lane choice on the highway, fsd is 95% solved, imo.
My constant sell for tesla is that people might not want an EV, but they definitely want a Tesla.
We live rural and remote too. Absolutely amazed with our Tesla. Bought it for winter second driver as gas supply is challenging in non tourist season. It has become our main driver. We love it.
very resourceful and informative, thank you!!
True statement, at least as of least today. Some parts of the US have horrible CCS fast charging, New Hampshire is one of them. I dumped an I4 M50 because of ccs. I
l'll have a Tesla will be in my garage within the next couple of days. Until other manufacturers have permission to use Tesla's NACS network, I think any of the CCS cars, depending upon where you live, could really prove to be a very negative experience.
BTW.... by ironclad private agreement, car dealers CANNOT advertise a car publically for less than MSRP.
However if you go into a Ford dealer you can find that they are selling the Mach-E for less than MSRP. So the price of the Mach-E is more competitive than you show... currently.
However all other stats are in the Tesla's favor.
I do not believe you. They must always add the Nitro filling in the tires.
@@wolfgangpreier9160 LOL
My 2022 model long range purchased in September 22 for $60000 with only 17000 miles now has a trade in offer from Tesla of $31;400 as quoted recently. So much for Teslas retaining value
Great video!
Word of mouth is the best advertisement. Tesla should be paying you. But you said the best feature near the end, SAFETY. Imo, that should be the first feature mentioned. Great video, thanks!
It was only my third point with my first Model 3 in 2019 and is now always the first point i check when i decide for a new vehicle for one of my employees.
First massEV - nissan leaf!
Nice introduction to this process. Some people know about Edmunds and KBB online models for a pure TCO analysis, and I would add that it is important to read their model's assumptions, some of which won't match up to the particular customer's context. Depreciation, in particular, is quite variable, and even the big boys like Hertz have done a poor analysis.
fishers? If they consider that nobody can’t help them 😂
In your spreadsheet it be fun if you included the ICE Mustang - showing how much more would gasoline/maintenance (brakes, tuneups, oil changes) cost vs electricity. After all EV’s are competing against ICE, not really against other EV’s.
Definitely a great resource to send friends, family and social. Please do not make a mistake and blow it. Tesla or nothing.
Very relevant general point!
The best car in a category you could buy used to be the one that had last been refreshed or replaced by a new model.
Tesla changed that with a sledge hammer!
I have personally driven these non-Tesla EVs:
BMW i4
Cupra Born
Hyundai Kona, Ioniq 5 & Ioniq 6
Mustang Mach-E
Nissan Leaf
MG ZS-EV & Marvel R
Nissan Ariya
Opel Mokka
Polestar 2
Renault Zoe
Skoda Enyaq
Toyota bz4X
Volvo C40
VW ID.4 1st, ID.4 GTX & ID.7
I *marked* the ones I would personally buy (with my own money and even without a big discount) in *green* , for your convenience.
I don't see any green text. I don't know that RUclips supports colored text. I do see bold text, so please use that.
@@pfilippone It's tongue-in-cheek. There are no green items. They're saying they wouldn't buy *ANY* non-Tesla EV. Clever post.
I'm not sure I agree. Even though my time was very short with my i4 m50, it was a very good car, 550 hp was rard to resist using. The range was a little above bad and the tech sort like FSD, is almost there , I would still own the car if BMW hadnt played hard ass with nacs. Was my i4 m50 as tech advanced as say the "Y" that's being shipped to me? Absolutely not! But it was still a very good car, and BMW SVC centers can handle the existing volumes. I might also add BMW isn't discounting their cars 12-15k either.
@@craighermle7727 I drove the i4 M50 as well - driven in Germany, judged by 2022 pricing and options list. My short summary copied from elsewhere:
VERY overpriced, with interior quality below e.g. made in Germany Model Y ; noticeably tight passenger and luggage space due to ICE platform; ugly, unintuitive software; topspeed only 227 indicated; surprising lack of traction esp. at the front axle and noticeable feeling of over-weight in the twisties, not worthy of the badge
Edit, re discounts: I can right now find dozens of i4 M50s with delivery miles for 30k less than what my test drive car would have cost - haven't checked equipment levels but.. well...
@@NO3V I didn't say the BMW wasn't overpriced
Fiskers?
Right now: city: Camry Hybrid. Highway cruiser Camry. Taxis Camry Hybrid or model 3 on slow days.
I didn't know FSD was 199/month. Now 99/month. Insane. Still a Rich boy toy.
Nissan introduced the Leaf a few years before the Tesla Model S.
What is an IRA tax credit?
2025 refreshed Model Y dual motor long range.
One thing they all have in common is that they ALL use part’s that are not made in the USA. So they are only ASSEMBLED IN THE USA.
The gas and diesel vehicles are similar but warranties are different, the lever of service dealers provide is different, and depending on the vehicle reliability may be different. I think if you look at keeping a car for three years then any brand is the same, but if you want to keep it longer then your choice is more important.
As far as EVs I think the Chinese ones are the ones I'd look into most. I was hugely impressed by a GAC in the Philippines, it wasn't an EV but it was as nice to drive as an equivalent Lexus or Mercedes. So given how advanced EV itech is in China I'd gravitate towards a Chinese car if I am going to go EV.
A 425hp gas car costs $80k. My 425hp AWD TM3LR costs just $56k.
Over the life of the Genesis G90 5.0 v8 it will cost you more than 60k in fuel! Also it only lasts about 300k miles before you have to replace it!
Again my TM3LR should last more than 750k miles and only cost me $22.5k in electricity! I can charge at home and it is cheap here! $0.12/kWh.
So the Tesla lasts twice as long and costs almost 5x less in fuel!
Heard today that Tesla made 10% of its staff worldwide redundant…
You don't have consistent signs in your difference column.
The culture for producing/supporting ICE and EVs vehicles is very different. It is very difficult if not impossible to have 2 distinct cultures in an organization. As an example the ICE culture is built around service while EV (Tesla) is built around the best service is no service. EVs require a software focus. I'm not saying legacy auto can't transition but I would wait a while to buy a legacy auto EV.
The data on safety with and without Autopilot is not as cut and dry as you present. Autopilot is more likely to be activated on the highway in good conditions, so the miles driven on autopilot is biased to the safer side due to driver self-selection. Meanwhile if we remove the autopilot miles, the remaining miles are likely more complex and accident prone. Therefore, the safety of the autopilot is likely biased upwards but the safety of Tesla cars not using autopilot is biased downwards. The truth is somewhere in the middle but still better than non-Teslas
I will make it easy for them: Model Y long range.
Ignoring the tax credit (which is significant) and the exaggerated charging speed advantage, the differences are negligible. Few people buy a car for the lowest possible price, and anyone who does won't buy either of these vehicles. If you prefer the Mach E over the Model Y, you prefer its style or other features you're ignoring here, or you just want a Ford rather than a Tesla.
Just buy a basic Volvo EX30 and be happy!
Can a smartphone be dashboard mounted and used as an instrument cluster in a new Tesla?
Yes, but what do you display in a instrument cluster? Oil pressure? RPM? Turbo pressure? Voltage?
@wolfgangpreier9160 That would not apply in an electric car. MPH, Distance left in charge, Ext. Temperature, Int. Temperature. Distance to Supercharger or destination. Etc.
@@digitraxanr That is all on the central display. Easily visible if i want to.
I prefer not having anything between me and the road.
Nice presentation. However you mean IRS not IRA.
The EV subsidy portion of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) is administered by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Both are correct in the context of this video.
Dr. KIA ain't sellin Kia's. Solid presentation.
# of Ford service centers in usa = 2895
# of Tesla service centers in usa = 245
Ford = + 1,018%
Videos like this one should be used to teach people about how easy it is to make a biased video to echo what you personally feel and how detect when people chose to present information in a dishonest way to support their biases.
I hear Crickets…… btw your Biases are plainly obvious, you can keep your Prius if you want, it’s okay.
@@Julian-1111 it is ok. Comment sections on Tesla RUclipsrs are echo chambers for like minded people. I'll list some examples. Using MSRP amounts for any comparison when one company, Tesla, doesn't negotiate on the MSRP, and the other, FORD, does offer lower prices to actual customers makes for a biased comparison. Using EPA range numbers to compare or to calculate efficiency when one company, Tesla grossly overstates their range, and the Mach-E has shown in the past to match the range the model Y LR gets in the real world (demonstrated by a Tesla fan, Bjorn Nyland) . Yes the Y is still more efficient in the real world, but gets the same range as the Mach-E. Falsely stating that ALL other EVs lose money and ONLY Tesla is profitable is complete BS.
He could have used real sale prices, real range figures, not lie about profitability, etc. and presented a more balanced view. He has every right to prefer or like Tesla. But I'm willing to bet he has money invested in their stock and of course doesn't openly disclose it in this video.
There is more but I need to pay attention to my current meeting
Still Crickets ………..
Mach-e is a nice car, I’ve driven one. Ford is artificially propping the pricing up, and that can’t be sustained, can it?
The Dealers don’t like or want them so don’t expect Tesla like service for them either.
You don’t have to buy a model Y, you know that, right.
Don’t hurry out of your meeting just to post to Crickets, again.
There is nothing on the market that compares to a Tesla, there is no point in doing due diligence, it's not even close.
Wish the Tesla screen wasn't so cluttered with so many choices with small icons. Very difficult to use while driving. Also need to have the screen adjustable so it can be angled towards the driver.
Which is why you can use voice commands with natural looking language for almost if not everything other than actually driving
None have the engineering that Tesla has! I would not spend my money on anything other than Tesla !
The EV1 was detrimental to the environment at the time because of the low energy conversion efficiency of coal fired power plants. 10% efficiency and coal is dirtier than gasoline. Gasoline engines were also much more efficient.
Most power plants are running at 33% efficiency. Newer plants can be 60-65% efficient. Gasoline engines are currently around 40% efficient. 4 stroke Diesels around 45% efficient. 2 stroke Opposed Piston engines are 48%(Forced Induction)-55%(Naturally Aspirated) efficient.
Your ICE efficiencies are entirely useless. They are for the BEST, freshly serviced, engines running continuously at their IDEAL LOAD POINT* - which is roughly 90% throttle and around 25% of the rev-range. If your Diesel doesn't have just 40 horsepower you almost NEVER run at that load point.
With a typical gas engine in typical driving patterns you will be LUCKY AF to get 15%, 20% for Diesel and that's before the added anti-NOX-sheep-urine ....

How much electricity does it take to refine oil?
@@garthharrington9683 electricity to run the pumps. Very little. I haven't checked but it seems to me oil refineries would use natural gas to heat things up.
Why would a Tesla with a human driver be safer than another car with a human driver?
Pickup new Toyota, used F-150.
Fossil burners are hurting our children . STOP IT!
buying a EV from a gas car make is like buying a gas car from a horse and buggy maker just don't do it . EVs r more robotics & code & gass cars r more mechanical & totally different
Why buy a BEV when a hybrid EV is far cheaper and easier to use?
No range anxiety
No charging anxiety
No need to pay $5,000 to have a Level-2 charger installed in your home
No trip planning anxiety - where you need special apps to plan your road trip and where to stop for 15 minutes to charge up the car
Just get in the hybrid and drive to your destination with none of the above crap...
Take it from me, a SUCKER that bought 2 Tesla's. NEVER buy a Tesla. Cheaply made POS that depreciate faster than used underwear.
It's hard to recommend buying a Tesla this year. They are too expensive and sales are slowing so there will be a lot of downward pressure on prices. When Tesla slashes prices on existing models, current owners take a bath since resale value plummets. Other than the fashion statement Cybertruck, all the Tesla models have become stale. They are optimized for margin rather than pleasing the customers. No stalks, seriously? And Musk's political views are a big turnoff to many would be Tesla buyers. I'm glad Tesla owner's are bullish on the brand, but the EV market is still mostly early adopters and the transition to mainstream buyers is going to take longer than expected. ICE cars still have some legs left.
You sound crazy… must be a troll… buying a Tesla as your vehicle has nothing to do with the stock. Also, resale only matters when you’re flipping a car, I plan on owning my Tesla for years, unless Tesla makes me a great offer on a trade in down the line. Your logic is irrational at best.
Your statement about Musk's political views reveals a lot about you. It says it all.
Biases from a blue hair wJoke. Pathetic, just stick with your Prius already.
CTruck is a technological Marvel, not a fashion statement like your Prius.
I’m pretty sure you didn’t watch this video at all, did you.
