Check out the Mach E review by Scotty on YouTube. Ford certainly is not behind Tesla at all. That Mach E is oders of magnitude more exciting than any Tesla I have ever seen.

The main thing Tesla still has over their competitors is the charging network. I've watched a couple X vs Tesla roadtrips and the biggest issue in the non-Tesla is there's way worse information about the chargers you'll find at a particular spot. These were a bit ago so maybe they've gotten better but there were a lot of "oh this charger doesn't work hopefully we have the range to get to the next one" where the Tesla chargers provide pretty good information about the number of people already charging there etc.

It's a gap they're losing a bit by other companies adopting their plug choice but there's still the integration to the car infotainment system.
