Competitive with Model Y? That's like saying the M550i needs to be competitive with VW Golf R. Completely different segments |
Not really. There are so few EVs currently in the market that are either practical in size or get anywhere near the 300 mile range standard that anything checking either of those boxes basically falls into the same segment by default. I get what you're saying in terms of comparing an established luxury brand to a Tesla, but at the end of the day, buyers who want to embrace the EV but haven't been able to yet due to obvious reasons will be considering anything and everything new to the marketplace.
