> why would anyone buy a Tesla over a comparatively priced Audi, Porsche, Mercedes or BMW

Because you want to drive far?

Tesla model 3 range: 354 - 504 km

Porsche Taycan range: 333 - 463 km

(and most certainly not comparatively priced)

If you are buying a Taycan you would not even consider the Model 3 and if you want to drive far you buy an ICE.
