Why Teslas are actually bad cars!!( It's not just about gear-heads whining about electric power)

Updated: 09 Dec 2017

Yes some petrol-heads hate these cars for the above reasons but there is much more to it
I’ll list them down here in the order of highest to lowest importance
A:Value for money, this is the most important as Tesla’s are absolute garbage when compared to pretty much all their competitors

A,1)
I’ll go car by car for this section
Tesla Model S vs competitors
The S class is better than the model S in every way except 0-30 acceleration.
Build quality,size,luxury,features and reliability .The model s has a worse interior than the new I30(But with a big display)
Just look at the difference

Tesla, full of cheap plastic and ugly Af

It does not just end there, you can get an m5 for a similar price, a maserati, and bmw, audis too.
A,2)
Model 3
This is by far the worst value
The starting price of the model 3 is twice that of a golf, or one E-class.But if you spec it even half decently it would cost the same as a Gulia Q.
Which is ridiculous!!
The Model 3 is crammed AF, looks ugly,interior is well designed but cheap.It’s literally plastic and fake wood running from it and a screen stuck on top
But will focus on the golf (Because if somone whines about the performance, you could get a golf-r for way cheaper.
The golf has;
More reliably, more space,better interior.more luxury features and design(design is subjective though)
The golf costs half as much!!
See a pattern?

A,3) Won’t spend too much time On the model X since it is already very very long
So for the a lot cheaper than the X you get a Macan,Velar,Q7 etc This isnot even a close one, I would rather have a velar even if it was more expensive

The problem with Tesla’s is not just the value,Teslas have terrible Reliabilty,service,dealer network.Considering the fact that you spend such a premium it makes no sense.
I personally don’t feel very fast 0-30 times make up for such incompetent cars.Especially given that the car’s handling can not use that power very well. Also, even if someone needs to buy electric cars the chevy bolt is around 200 times better(More range,bigger,better interior,people can actually fit in the back) than the model 3 for cheaper(So don’t argue that these cars have bad value because of the cost of batteries)

So, next time someone says they don’t like teslas don’t assume that they are just radical gearheads who want to mod their engines and here an engine roar every morning and worry about the fact that it takes so much time to charge.(Though that is also a perfectly acceptable reason)

Of course Teslas are expensive, electric cars are a new technology and is expensive to develop, do you think cars in 1910 were cheap or had good quality? No, because they were a new technology back then, electric cars are developing and will eventually get cheaper and have better quality. Also you list 3 points in your post and they all only talk about pricing, not exactly the only reason to hate on electric cars you know. Also who are you calling “ignorant” in the start?

And as for the Model 3 vs Bolt, look at the features that the Model 3 has that the Bolt doesnt and also I belive the Model 3 has better range aswell..

I’m not hating on electric cars,I’m just saying that not all people who dislike teslas have no valid reason. This is in response to many posts about teslas being perfect cars and the only people who dislike them are fanboys of petrol etc.
Also, the bolt and model 3 have very little range difference. The longe range model 3 is better ,yes but that costs upwards of 50k .
Also the model 3 has no features, you have to pay around 10k(It’s already 5k more that the bolt) just to get autopilot, where as the bolt has similar radar guided cruise control that work well.
