Rivian, Lucid and Mercedes if you want to pay 3x for somewhat better build but somewhat worse software.

I agree tho long term at lower end there’s just no way anyone can compete (except in cars of anti-software or anti-feature).

> for somewhat better build

Somewhat? The build quality of a Tesla, even a Model S, resembles that of a Corolla at best. The dash creaks, there's unexplained rattles, the wind howls if things aren't sealed properly, and if you try to address anything with a Service Center you often get told 1) they can't find it, or 2) they found it, but it's "within spec".

I'm more of referring to materials, although later generation (Y and 3) seem to be using softer plastics tho some rattles are still there. I haven't driven Corolla for a while, but compared to decade old Mazda - only real leather is what I miss, else it's like every car 3 decades before.

Ultimately you have your choice tho.

some ppl say teslas built in germany have better quality compared to us ones
