    Software was probably one of the last areas where Tesla still had a small edge over the competition.

    The competition has caught up when it comes to range and Teslas were never really competitive when it comes to quality or price.

      Agreed. I’ve used the infotainment on EVs from Kia, Toyota, Cadillac, and Hyundai so far and Tesla is so much smoother and seamless and intuitive.

      And don’t get me started on the mobile app and API access. Toyota’s mobile app might be the worst in the industry, dear god it’s bad. It crashes during setup and the salesperson just said, “Yeah that’s normal it’s why it only has 2 stars”.

      Tesla still had a small edge over the competition.

      Too bad they wasted it all on things like “fart mode” and games instead of useful features like improved speech recognition and integrating it with things like the radio, Bluetooth, etc.
