It’s such a shame that honestly pretty awesome cars with leading driving assistance software are constantly miss-advertised and ruined by the man in charge. So absurd.

They are poorly built cars. Driving assistance just masks the real problem of too many drivers on roads who should not be licensed and the joke of car licence tests.

If you look into the recent model years, they are above average in terms of build quality. Reliability looks also pretty good according to to statistics. Even the most basic driving assistance enhances safety for anyone, and Tesla FSD, as idiotic as the name is, is very good and definitely safer than the average human at the wheel (who must anyway always monitor the situation and take over if needed, so it’s a summation of systems). If you compare price-to-features, no-one is close to Tesla right now. That’s the reason why they sell a huge amount of cars. And I hate it, but it’s true.
