You clearly never owned a Tesla as you brush off all the pros and over dramatize the cons. Im not gonna get into a debate over it as my comment was off topic to begin with though.
I owned an '18 Model 3 that I bought new and traded in late last year. The pros I can think of are 1) a better charging network, and 2) faster 0-60. Literally everything else about my BMW i4 is better. The 5.8 second 0-60 in my i4 is fast enough, and the charging network has been good enough for the couple of times a year I use it.
The only real reason to buy a Model 3 now is price with the latest price drops. But you get what you pay for.
I genuinely don’t know why it’s a radical opinion that a BMW is better than a Tesla. Tesla isn’t a luxury brand, BMW is, and they’re now priced to reflect that.
The powertrain of a Tesla is good, but so is the powertrain of the i4. My subjective opinion is that the Model 3 is faster, but the i4 is more refined. I prefer the i4. Plus, the lack of blended braking in the Model 3 (something every non-Tesla EV has) is a non-starter for me since one-pedal driving makes my wife carsick.
I have driven many newer Model 3’s as Hertz rentals. Yes they have more features, but that doesn’t fix the build quality, NVH, or interior quality.
Again, I’m not saying that the Model 3 is bad. It’s a good car for the price. I personally will never buy a Tesla again because of the many suspension and HVAC issues I had, but I’ve talked to other people who had great experiences with theirs.

Yeah this is just incredibly ignorant.
