Came here to say screw VW. Good luck ID4 drivers. Luckily there are less moving parts than ICEs. I had the joy of dealing with the timing chain tensioners on a VW ICE… known, document, engineering problem they did not proactively replace and instead let tens of thousands of vehicles prematurely drive around with an engine that was playing roulette every day. On top of that, higher maintenance costs, had to explain to them what they needed to do, and more maintenance needs than any car I’ve had since (sensors, trans, timing chain, more frequent intervals, yuck). They can suck my greenwashed dieselgate.

To your question, would agree with other posters. Tesla not the highest reliability ratings but hard to beat the service. The advantage with them is they know EVs better as well, VS other manufacturers where it’s at best an ancillary part of their biz.

We have less than 1% EV adoption

Still A long way to go before it is at a scale that makes a meaningful dent in things

Jorge makes some incredible line breaking passes. Was one of stats I recall him excelling in. But I agree he’s not a safe bet anymore with age / fitness. A great third choice
