don’t glorify german automakers too much. they’re 5-10 years behind Tesla when it comes to manufacturing optimization, sw/hw integration, BEV efficiency, etc.
Only thing missing from Tesla to beat them now is being better at actually building lasting cars. Hopefully Tesla eventually learns what "tolerance" means and that cars sometimes get wet from rain.
headlines don’t reflect the reality. they’re at worst average reliability-wise. The reason I know you’re talking purely off headlines is because the wet thing was suuuch an obvious rage bait from a software bug
