Perhaps you respect Musk but are interested in what else is on the market. Or maybe you didn’t have strong feelings either way about Musk — but you don’t love Teslas and are hoping to find something more suited to your individual needs.</p><p>Here, we break down each model in Tesla’s lineup and what alternatives are out there.</p><h2>Instead of: Model 3</h2><p>This is the entry-level Tesla sedan. The long-range dual motor model starts at $US57,990 in America ($80,000 in Australia) with a range of 576 kilometres, though it’s currently unavailable for ordering. The rear-wheel drive Model 3 starts at $US46,990 ($65.500 in Australia), has an estimated range of 437 kilometres and goes 0-100 in 5.8 seconds. The more powerful dual-motor performance model has a significantly longer range of 506 km, goes 0-100 in 3.1 seconds and starts at $US62,990 ($93,600 in Australia).</p><figure><picture><source height=\"414\" media=\"(min-width: 1180px)\" srcset=\"data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAMAAAACCAQAAAA3fa6RAAAADklEQVR42mNkAANGCAUAACMAA2w/AMgAAAAASUVORK5CYII=, data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAMAAAACCAQAAAA3fa6RAAAADklEQVR42mNkAANGCAUAACMAA2w/AMgAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" width=\"620\"/><source height=\"414\" media=\"(min-width: 1020px)\" srcset=\"data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAMAAAACCAQAAAA3fa6RAAAADklEQVR42mNkAANGCAUAACMAA2w/AMgAAAAASUVORK5CYII=, data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAMAAAACCAQAAAA3fa6RAAAADklEQVR42mNkAANGCAUAACMAA2w/AMgAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" width=\"620\"/><source height=\"464\" media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" srcset=\"data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAMAAAACCAQAAAA3fa6RAAAADklEQVR42mNkAANGCAUAACMAA2w/AMgAAAAASUVORK5CYII=, data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAMAAAACCAQAAAA3fa6RAAAADklEQVR42mNkAANGCAUAACMAA2w/AMgAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" width=\"696\"/><img height=\"255\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 382px\" src=\"data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAMAAAACCAQAAAA3fa6RAAAADklEQVR42mNkAANGCAUAACMAA2w/AMgAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAMAAAACCAQAAAA3fa6RAAAADklEQVR42mNkAANGCAUAACMAA2w/AMgAAAAASUVORK5CYII=, data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAMAAAACCAQAAAA3fa6RAAAADklEQVR42mNkAANGCAUAACMAA2w/AMgAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" width=\"382\"/></picture><figcaption><p>Polestar 3. <cite> </cite></p></figcaption></figure><p>Try: BMW i4, Polestar 2 or Kia EV6</p><div><div><div></div><div></div><small>Advertisement</small></div></div><p>The BMW’s entry into the luxury electric vehicle space came with the stunning i4. Our review noted its tight steering, responsive suspension and powerful motors, as well as the high-quality interiors that BMW is known for. A rear-wheel-drive model, the i4 eDrive40, has a range of 480 km and starts at $US55,900. The i4 M50 goes from 0-100 in 3.7 seconds, has a range of 395 km and starts at $US67,300. “It is impossible to replicate more than a century of German manufacturing in a few years’ time; the fit and finish of interior cabins in the electric vehicles coming from Audi, Porsche, and now BMW is one way it shows,” our review said of the i4.</p><p>Meanwhile, the Polestar 2’s looks and build quality are better than Tesla’s, with comparable performance and a range of 435 km. The dual motor starts at $US53,300. The Kia EV6 crossover, starting at $US48,500, has a range of 500 km with about twice as much cargo space as the Tesla sedan.</p><h2>Instead of: Model Y</h2><figure><picture><source height=\"220\" media=\"(min-width: 1180px)\" srcset=\"data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7, data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" width=\"220\"/><source height=\"240\" media=\"(min-width: 1020px)\" srcset=\"data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7, data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" width=\"240\"/><source height=\"240\" media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" srcset=\"data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7, data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" width=\"240\"/><img height=\"382\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 382px\" src=\"data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" srcset=\"data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7, data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" width=\"382\"/></picture><figcaption><p>The iX has the length and width of a BMW X5, the height of a BMW X6, and the wheel dimensions of the BMW X7. <cite> </cite></p></figcaption></figure><p>Although it doesn’t exactly look like a station wagon, the Model Y serves that purpose in the fleet. It’s like a shrunken Model X, but it still has plenty more cargo space than the sedans—or, it can be configured to fit seven seats.

Its interior and build quality feels on par with BMW and superior to Tesla. The BMW iX, meanwhile, starts at $US83,200, has a range of more than 480 km, and goes 0-100 kph in 4.6 seconds. Our review calls it unattractive and a bit boring to drive but says it has the high quality expected from BMW.</p><h2>Instead of: Model X</h2><p>The closest thing Tesla has to an SUV is the Model X, which starts at $US120,990 ($162,000 in Australia), has range of 535 km and goes 0-100 in 2.5 seconds.</p><p>Try: Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo</p><p>This Porsche station wagon really drives like a Porsche. Its acceleration is silky smooth and flawless, driving engagement is instant, and thrilling performance can be had at any speed. The range is only about 380 km and it starts at $US97,700, but it has some excellent off-road power and provides a very enjoyable way to get your groceries home.</p><h2>Instead of: Model S</h2><div><div><div></div><div></div><small>Advertisement</small></div></div><p>This luxury sedan from Tesla is quick, especially if you purchase the extra power boost model that gets it to 100 kph in less than 3 seconds.

The spacious, beautiful interiors, HEPA air filters and front seats that heat rapidly and offer massages make the car’s environment feel like a health spa.

Now you’re not so sure?You’re not alone: The billionaire’s behaviour has made some people publicly declare (on Twitter, of course) they will never buy one of his electric vehicles. And a poll of Twitter users just indicated that most would like for him to step down as the social network’s CEO.The Tesla Model Y was the No.10 selling vehicle in Australia in November of any type.  Rhett WymanTesla is still the leading electric-vehicle maker in the world, but China’s BYD is catching up. Tesla got an early jump on the industry with the 2012 launch of the first car it developed from scratch, the Model S, which forced the general public to rethink what EVs could be with its sleek looks, zippy performance and higher-end finishes.But strong recent entries from established brands, as well as much-hyped debuts from other startups, are taking a bigger share of the growing EV market.A market research brand, HundredX, showed a drop in loyalty in recent months among Telsa owners, who are known for their devotion to the company’s leader and his brand.Still, you’re curious about EVs and considering switching to electric? Perhaps you respect Musk but are interested in what else is on the market. Or maybe you didn’t have strong feelings either way about Musk — but you don’t love Teslas and are hoping to find something more suited to your individual needs.Here, we break down each model in Tesla’s lineup and what alternatives are out there.Instead of: Model 3This is the entry-level Tesla sedan. The long-range dual motor model starts at $US57,990 in America ($80,000 in Australia) with a range of 576 kilometres, though it’s currently unavailable for ordering. The rear-wheel drive Model 3 starts at $US46,990 ($65.500 in Australia), has an estimated range of 437 kilometres and goes 0-100 in 5.8 seconds. The more powerful dual-motor performance model has a significantly longer range of 506 km, goes 0-100 in 3.1 seconds and starts at $US62,990 ($93,600 in Australia).Polestar 3.  Try: BMW i4, Polestar 2 or Kia EV6AdvertisementThe BMW’s entry into the luxury electric vehicle space came with the stunning i4. Our review noted its tight steering, responsive suspension and powerful motors, as well as the high-quality interiors that BMW is known for. A rear-wheel-drive model, the i4 eDrive40, has a range of 480 km and starts at $US55,900. The i4 M50 goes from 0-100 in 3.7 seconds, has a range of 395 km and starts at $US67,300. “It is impossible to replicate more than a century of German manufacturing in a few years’ time; the fit and finish of interior cabins in the electric vehicles coming from Audi, Porsche, and now BMW is one way it shows,” our review said of the i4.Meanwhile, the Polestar 2’s looks and build quality are better than Tesla’s, with comparable performance and a range of 435 km. The dual motor starts at $US53,300. The Kia EV6 crossover, starting at $US48,500, has a range of 500 km with about twice as much cargo space as the Tesla sedan.Instead of: Model YThe iX has the length and width of a BMW X5, the height of a BMW X6, and the wheel dimensions of the BMW X7.  Although it doesn’t exactly look like a station wagon, the Model Y serves that purpose in the fleet. It’s like a shrunken Model X, but it still has plenty more cargo space than the sedans—or, it can be configured to fit seven seats. The Model Y Long Range starts at $US65,990 ($103,400 in Australia), has a range of 530 km and goes 0-100 in 4.8 seconds.Try: Audi Q4 e-tron or BMW iXAdvertisementStarting at $US49,800, the Audi Q4 e-Tron Premium has a range of 425 km and goes 0-100 kph in 5.8 seconds. Its interior and build quality feels on par with BMW and superior to Tesla. The BMW iX, meanwhile, starts at $US83,200, has a range of more than 480 km, and goes 0-100 kph in 4.6 seconds. Our review calls it unattractive and a bit boring to drive but says it has the high quality expected from BMW.Instead of: Model XThe closest thing Tesla has to an SUV is the Model X, which starts at $US120,990 ($162,000 in Australia), has range of 535 km and goes 0-100 in 2.5 seconds.Try: Porsche Taycan Cross TurismoThis Porsche station wagon really drives like a Porsche. Its acceleration is silky smooth and flawless, driving engagement is instant, and thrilling performance can be had at any speed. The range is only about 380 km and it starts at $US97,700, but it has some excellent off-road power and provides a very enjoyable way to get your groceries home.Instead of: Model SAdvertisementThis luxury sedan from Tesla is quick, especially if you purchase the extra power boost model that gets it to 100 kph in less than 3 seconds. The dual-motor model starts at $US104,990, with a range of 650 km and a dash from 0-100 in 3.1 seconds.Mercedes-Benz has allocated €40 billion to transform its fleet to battery-only by the end of this decade.  Try: Mercedes EQS or Audi e-tron GTFor $US104,400, you’ll get the most technologically advanced car that Mercedes-Benz has ever offered to the general public. The EQS makes tight U-turns and has an incredible 780 km driving range. There are also luxury amenities such as Burmester 3D surround sound. The spacious, beautiful interiors, HEPA air filters and front seats that heat rapidly and offer massages make the car’s environment feel like a health spa. Gripes include the look of the car, it’s reminiscent of a lozenge, and the lack of resistance when pushing the brakes.Bloomberg","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":147,"commentLimit":10,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"symbols":[],"verified":2,"subType":0,"readableState":1,"langContent":"EN","currentLanguage":"EN","warmUpFlag":false,"orderFlag":false,"shareable":true,"causeOfNotShareable":"","featuresForAnalytics":[],"commentAndTweetFlag":false,"upFlag":false,"length":1,"xxTargetLangEnum":"ORIG"},"commentList":[],"hasMoreComment":false,"orderType":2}
