Calling Model 3 a luxury vehicle is rather a stretch. Even Model S lacks things Hyundai one third the price has.

While no other company can come close to Tesla in selling half-baked (or altogether nonexistent) stuff to the gullible, packaging Panasonic batteries in an overpriced golf cart isn't something that any company that knows how to actually build cars would be particularly concerned about.

Lol, I have a Hyundai and a Model S. What you wrote makes zero sense

So... your model S has cooled seats? Tesla doesn't offer them now (and apparently they didn't work when they did). My wife's Sonata has them, and they work.

Not even talking about stuff that is to be expected in a $70K+ car, Tesla doesn't quite compete with a $30K econobrand when it comes to creature comforts.

Let's see. My Hyundai doesn't offer any kind of Autopilot features or advanced safety features. My Hyundai doesn't get monthly software updates that improves the car every month. My Hyundai doesn't have a world wide supercharger network to take long trips for free. My Hyundai doesn't have advanced voice features that are constantly improving. Doesn't have natively integrated streaming and podcasts app that can be controlled with voice. Doesn't have integrated Google search with voice command. Doesn't have an AI driven climate preconditioning. Doesn't have a simple UI to maintain separate driver profiles. Doesnt have an interface to customize a myriad of settings. This is just a start. I can keep going

Let me guess... it is a 10 years old Elantra?

Let's see... my wife's Hyundai does have adaptive cruise control that actually works and does not try to kill her, it has line assist that works as well, it does not get some buggy and unexpected changes in behavior that make it work worse than before. It can actually drive from San Jose to Vegas non-stop without sitting for a couple of hours in the exciting world of Kettleman City's Supercharger station. It integrates with whatever podcast/streaming app she has on the phone, got integrated Google search with voice control, has a perfectly working AC system (and what the hell is an AI driven climate control anyway? Does that come with little Elon's waving fans around your head or something?).

Oh, did I mention that it does not try to kill her? And cools our butts when it is hot outside? And that the body panels actually fit? All of that in a cheap brand for $40K less than a Tesla. For the kind of money you paid, I expect massaging seats, rear seat recliners, maybe even safety better than that of an old Kia.

Sorry. Not being very impressed here.
