Better commuting car than Tesla
Obviously performance is not the same, but when it comes to features, ride quality, comfort, and value as a daily driver and long commuter (my commute is 25 miles each way), this car exceeds what Tesla offers in many aspects. The “self-driving” features are as good (I have driven many teslas for several days), the PHEV takes away any range anxiety and makes this more practical for road trips or getaways to places that are off the supercharger grid, and the overall ride quality and noise levels beat the pants off of the model 3/y. Value-wise, I got this car for MSRP ($44k for limited PHEV in deep sea) and will be getting a $6800 federal tax rebate bringing the total down to under $38k. Compare that to a model Y which will cost nearly $20k more. Lastly, 0% financing and 3yrs of free maintenance serve to sweeten the deal. My next car will be full electric, and by then the playing field between Tesla and the legacy automakers should be much more level, ultimately benefiting the consumer.
