Tesla builtin maps use TomTom, which is low quality compare to Google Maps or the new Apple Maps. I find it to be the biggest turn-off.

No it's Google Maps for both navigation directions and map data. There are some features from the Android google maps app not supported on the Tesla, but otherwise it's the same.

That would be false. They might have moved to osm recently, but Tesla’s basemap has been TomTom since ‘17. Google data might have been used for POI, but never for basemap or navigation.
