I see an i-Pace at work every day, and it's really really nice. But one day it parked next to a Tesla Model 3, and I was shocked that they were almost the same size. So I'll never buy it, since it's too small to replace my Model X.
I will never understand why at least one forward-looking car manufacturer didn't see the electric future and license Tesla to put a battery in an already existing model. I would have paid a pretty premium to drive an all-electric Infiniti QX60, Cadillac Escalade, Audi Q7, BMW X5, or even a Buick Enclave. I wouldn't care if the extra weight limited the battery to only 220 miles and 0-60 in 6 seconds. I've got the Tesla Model X, but it's frankly to big and gimmicky for me; but there's nothing else out there with which to replace it. Model Y isn't going to cut it either, with that spartan interior and single screen.
Yes, we had a RAV4 EV for a while (the so-called Baby Tesla since it was a joint venture), but Toyota sold it as a compliance car, and never gave it the range and features it should have had. If Toyota had just put into that RAV4 EV what it put into the Prius Prime, with some Tesla range, Toyota wouldn't be able to make RAV4 EVs fast enough.
