As I am only allowed to play kids song or educational audio books for kids, I really don't care about the audio system or quality. As long as it turns on and connects to my phone and makes sound/noise, I am good.
I am a street racer. I don't need slow cars or slow cars with good audio. When you race on the streets, all the sound fades away anyway. All i want is the electric motor whine!!You are the perfect demographic for Toyotas. Their radio systems sound like AM radios.
I learned long ago that the brand name stereos that car makers tout are more often about the audio companies whoring out their name (can I say that?) to get extra money from the carmakers.Lol. How is the Bose audio system considered a plus? It’s awful. My friend dumped his SEL RWD for a Y and his major complaint was the poor audio system. I was unimpressed by it in my 3 separate test drives.
Tesla’s audio is just okay by my standards now. I want BMW i4 HK minimum in my next car.

I keep hearing the new 2022 Model Y has better ride quality. You are saying it’s still poor. I’m assuming it’s still rougher than the I5?Meh. I just dumped my Mach-E GT Performance because it was too fast for the street and the track mode is terrible (only worked for 2 out of 6 laps at Daytona). Speeding ticket magnet.
I'm sticking with my BMW i4 with adaptive suspension. While I have a new Austin-built Model Y LR also... it's become a secondary car. The ride quality is poor and the audio is also worse

The I5 (Ioniq 5) suspension is MUCH better than the Y as someone who has both, but you sacrafice in the sharp cornering. The pros of the I5 is the 360 camera, apple carplay, blind spot on the heads up display and the display screen, built in motorized sun shade, built in rear sun shade and a 120v that can power a refrigerator. Quality, comfort and quietness is lightyears from the Y. It has homelink garage opener. Plenty of dealer network, parts are easily accessible.
The cons, finding a charger on the display is horrible, on the Y I can say I want to go to xyz and it'll tell me where to stop to charge. Bose system is a joke, it is so bad it's not even funny. Useless frunk, poor charging network. Anyone have questions feel free to ask, my opinions are unbiased because I don't give af.
Sometimes I think we understate the significance of this here. I bet most people that frequent a forum like this would quickly adapt with things like ABRP and similar tools.The cons, finding a charger on the display is horrible, on the Y I can say I want to go to xyz and it'll tell me where to stop to charge.
It really depends on your needs. I rarely use superchargers and have only taken 2 road trips (max 5 hours) in my MY. For me it wouldn't be much of an issue.Sometimes I think we understate the significance of this here.

Its a lot harder for the people who are jumping into an EV for the first time and have no idea how things like speed or bike racks affect range.
What year MY do you have?The I5 (Ioniq 5) suspension is MUCH better than the Y as someone who has both, but you sacrafice in the sharp cornering
Very subjective statement. Ioniq 5 suspension is mushy and boring and unstable and wobbly, which doesn't mean it is better than something else.The I5 (Ioniq 5) suspension is MUCH better than the Y as someone who has both, but you sacrafice in the sharp cornering.
Things like high interest rates will affect everyone, although buyers that have the means to buy a $70k car are less likely to be affected than those buying a $40k car, so the effects may not be equal across the board.Although high interest rates and a tight market will be a test for Tesla, they have positioned themselves for continued growth and they continue to school and blow away the competition. Lucid (Lucy in the Sky without Diamonds) certainly discovered that "production hell" was real.
A good assessment with actual numbers:
Tesla Humiliates Volkswagen, Mercedes - TheStreet

Elon Musk's group has just inflicted a crushing defeat on its German competitors.www.thestreet.com
That doesn't, however, preclude them from keeping an eye on the rearview mirror and considering some styling updates instead of constantly pouring out new models.
Do you have any idea how disastrous the recall/quality control issues have been for the so called "experienced" OEMs in recent years? Tesla is doing pretty well now, and OEMs are not. Hyundai, the subject of this thread has millions of ICE cars on recall for multiple serious engine problems, and don't forget the EV Kona battery fire recall....The other thing to remember is that the traditional car makers don’t have the EV experience that Tesla does but they do have a long history in manufacturing and we’ve seen Tesla struggle repeatedly with quality control. At some point the quality issues will catch up with them. Hopefully they get things figured out before then.
