What does all that even mean? My Bolt drives just fine. What features are you talking about?

There's an efficiency rating for EVs, basically best bang for buck per kWh. Tesla has ranked in the top consistently, thus saving you some more money on electric bill.

When I was shopping around for EVs at the time the Bolt was actually more efficient miles/kwh than a Tesla. Factoring that into the total cost of ownership further widened the price between them.

It means you are comparing apples to oranges. You wouldn't comparing a chevy spark to a mid range lexus they are optimized for different markets.

Cars are some of the most feature segmented products available. I don't believe that you have no understanding of the different features of cars outside of ability to drive.

More people simply don't care at all.
They're like uber expensive phones, whatever you buy will be a piece of shit in 10 years anyways, why would you spend 50k on a piece of shit when you can buy another one for 5k
I recently rented a modern car and god damn besides being able to control the back windows from the front seat it was all gimmick tier gadgets

Problem is based on the cars that sell most people definitely care.

The #2 most sold car in europe is a shit box called Dacia Sandero, it's a cheap renault built in Romania using renault tech from 10 years ago and barely able to break 0-60 in like 15 seconds
But it sells new from 11k euros...

I'm not up to speed on it, but I'll do my own research since I'm sure you're right.

Double negative makes you sound like a bot.
