Hi,
I am looking to buy an electric SUV. There are 3 in the market the 2020 Model X, the E tron and the Jaguar I. This is going our only car and we it will used as a family car and we have 3 kids, so we need space for 3 car seats. I understand the Model X delivers on that front, and the E Tron also does (thought it is difficult to find that information). I have 4 main concerns for the Model X (which i do not think are an issue for the e tron):
1) General reliability. I understand all in electric (as opposed to manual) in a Tesla, how often to people have electric problems (doors, windows, etc), the small stuff not motor or the like. This is a special concern because I understand repairs take time.
2) Falcon doors. They seem impracticable (though extremely cool). Are they really a problem (for example, if you go to an underground parking, when there is rain, etc.) or is it manageable (i read that some people just solve their issues by coming out of the car an manually avoiding the doors hitting the ceiling of their garage).
3) Parking outdoors. Is this an issue? I read somewhere that the paint isn't great.
4) Sun/Windshield. Road trips will primarily be during the summer, so I would like to know your thinking about the windshield, as a lot of people say that because it design the car get super warm.
