Description

We’ve got nine different EVs in the Edmunds long-term test fleet, and each one has provided its own unique experience … and, in an unfortunately large number of cases, problems. In this video, Edmunds’ Brian Wong and Clint Simone give you an overview of each electric vehicle in our fleet and answer a key question: Would we buy it again?

How is it that you have no EVs from the Hyundai/Kia family in your long-term fleet? Seems like a big miss here in this video.

"If you're towing, you lose a bunch of range." The truest statement related to towing ever made.... regardless of the fuel source!

Sorry for your bad experience with Lucid. I too bought a 2022, but my experience has been very positive. No interior build problems at all. The OTA updates, quickly took care of the software issues. I've got over 20k miles on it, road trips from Maine to Miami, all without problems. The long range allows us to relax and enjoy the car, only charging when we also need a longer break so no travel time lost. Our only complaint is about Electrify America network and the general lack of charging infrastructure in the USA.

Most of the comments don't understand how rough Model Y's were in 2020....

Thank you guys and thank you Edmunds. You have gone a long way to restoring my faith in some media reporting. Your critiques and summaries were on point. As a tesla follower, i concur with your summation of the 2020 model y. There has been a significant upgrade in their quality since 2022 but you were honest based on the vehicle you had in your fleet. And i appreciate that.

Couldn’t agree more about your assessment of the ride quality of the Model Y. I have never been happier to get rid of a car!

Great recap! Fun and informative. Mach-E needs a Gangnam Style trim level.

We have a 2024 Model Y performance and a 2023 R1S. Love them both. Without a doubt, and not skipping a beat, the Tesla has been maintenance free for over 40k miles - just replaced the tires (that hurt). Our Rivian has 32k showing and we have developed a weird and consistent knock/clunk in the front end. It goes in on the 7th, and we're anticipating a new Gen 2 subframe to fix the issue. Other than that, and thank god for the warranty, we've had zero issues....oh wait, forgot - had to replace the weather stripping on the rear hatch, twice!!
