The Taycan looks pretty good, but it has a gas tank (battery) that shrinks in size over time. Who wants that?
EQC, E-Tron and iX3 are all flops in my opinion, they don't do well in any specific department other than having a nice badge. The Taycan while poor in range does well in keeping with its brand identity and "feel," and has produced better real-world numbers, its price is just too astronomical for my taste but it seems sales have done well. In general, most EV's coming out that aren't from Tesla could be a lot better. The only impressive EV to me right now (other than Taycan) is the Ford Mach-E as I think it really nails its mission. Now if only the charging network could catch up and actually be reliable!
