It seems like Tesla is light years ahead of all other car companies, why is that? Do any other companies produce  cars similar? The  only cars that come to mind from the big companies are compact cars like the Prius, Volt and Leaf... why is Tesla in a whole different league?
The product is indeed light years ahead of the competition. They started earlier and they have made big bets.

Ioniq. There's a regular hybrid version, a plug in hybrid, and an electric version. There's also an electric version of of the Kona.
From looking at pics, it looks more like a prius than a Tesla, thus proving my point. That tesla is in another league

Model s def is. And is priced accordingly.

3 isn’t much diff in size. Is better in performance.

The Tesla board probably laughed at the ridiculous pay package they offered Musk. Look who's laughing now!
I'm not who you think I am.

Tests on Mobileye’s latest camera system didn’t reveal the same vulnerability, and Tesla’s latest vehicles apparently don’t depend on traffic sign recognition, according to McAfee.
Doesn't this make the whole article moot?

I believe the video I saw, said it was last used on the 2016 model...

Getting the FSD HW3 computer installed today on my Model 3 and have a Model S P85D loaner.
Amazing that Tesla charges less than half the price for a car that's twice as good.

and don't forget to reboot your car once installed

in NYC you don't need a Tesla to reboot, just skip some ticket payments and the city will do it for you

Some really cool stuff, I wonder what this means for electric bills, will they start charging based in what hours you're using electric?

Tentatively sold at $3K :)
Now I need to figure out how to actually get the wheels.
