The Model 3 is looking a bit over priced now, with cars like the Kona and coming Lead 64 offering similar features, performance and better range for less money.

Performance? Not even close. The Kona will have a time of 9.7s for 0-100km/h, vs 5.1s for the Model 3. Much slower charging too.

What is a Lead 64?

Kona confirmed for 7.4 0-100.
But are the manufacturers as known and reputable as Tesla?
The Kona is by Hyundai, so id say yes
GM already sells an EV (Bolt), so there are less expensive options out their today. Nothing matches the Model 3's combination of performance, price, styling, and driving experience.
1. They are not available. Specs and pricing haven't been revealed.

2. They have inferior performance.

3. They match the range of the Short Range Model 3.
