Data published by the U.K.’s Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) showed Tesla’s new car sales dropped by nearly 60% to 987 units last month, down from 2,462 a year ago.
BYD sold 3,184 units in the U.K. in July, more than quadrupling its sales from a year ago. The company enjoyed similar success in Germany, notching a year-on-year sales uptick of nearly 390%.
These are fine, but seems to me that they’re taking much more than that. The clumsy UX, that is. Tesla is probably based on Linux too.
This is my experience based on test driving VW ID.7 and Hyundai Ioniq 6 this year. I think I’ll check out Polestar 4 next, but if it sucks in the same way, I might be discouraged to try further and just keep my Tesla.
I know Lucid should have good infotainment. Buggy in the beginning but should have improved. Maybe the Midsize platform will bring a good contender!
