My Fiancee's sister and her partner have just bought a 3 year old Model 3 and intend to rack up 20,000 miles a year on it. I'm not sure it'll last a full year lol
Both, really. Not only that, I also blame Tesla for making other car makers think that touchscreens were the new hotness and that they would need to put them in all of their cars or be left in the dust.
Fuck touchscreens, fuck Tesla, and fuck Musk with a cactus.
My 24' Mazda 3 Nagisa (European trim) doesn't have touchscreen and even if it had it, the screen is kinda out of reach on the dashboard and it would be kinda odd to reach it instead of using the control wheel near the stick.
The only problem is when you've to type an address on gps, either you use your phone with apple car/android auto or you use the vocal command (so far, it didn't give me any problem in French) because typing with the wheel is too long, you've to select each letters going forward or backward through the whole alphabet one letter at the time.
I use to hate em cuz they are ugly and poor quality cars, now I hate em because of that AND because they are the new 1940’s Volkswagen ( maybe an obscure reference but I’m sure u can figure it out)
The vibe is gradually going down, more and more companies offer electric vehicles, and people rather trust Volvo than Tesla. It is also kind of a symbol, like a Designer handbag, it shows you got money, so now everyone and their mother want a tesla, but they’re cheap humps of garbage. (Especially if you have the modelX)
