1) sufficiently long track record of reliability (I might consider Ford and Rivian now)
2) free remote start and unlock
3) camera recordings - how is this not standard in all cars by now?
4) not having to buy via dealership (this is worth a lot to me). Bought a Tesla on my couch in 15 minutes and picking it up took 15 minutes. Dealerships take hours and hours, and try to upsell you.
5) $35k to $40k price point - if BYD were to come to America, I would drop Tesla in a heartbeat
The camera recordings thing to me BLOWS MY MIND! Also for competitors such as Volvo -- only finally having a functional user experience for apple or google. They are years behind on the trivial matters (that people care about).
I don't think Ford is in the running.
FSD is pretty sweet especially compared to volvo's woefully poor autopilot efforts.
What are these features that tie people to Teslas that the competition is unable to deliver on?
