So… it’s BMW vs Tesla time. Spoiler alert, turns out the Tesla is the faster car around a race circuit. That’s the conclusion of Top Gear so you may as well not watch this video at all. Hello, goodbye as the old saying goes. But if you do decide to watch its a fascinating look into how Tesla goes about its business and how old school BMW is becoming.

Despite regularly shitting on BMW, we have tested the M3 and it is without any doubt, any hesitation a superbly engineered machine. It feels like a supercar and drives like a track car. Yet it is compliant enough for everyday use. It’s brilliant in every way.

So what of BMW vs Tesla? The Tesla Model 3 is “new school” electric car, Tesla’s affordable entry into the realm of electric car ownership. If you are interested in any electric car consider first the Tesla… any Tesla you are able to afford.

Sure Tesla may have QC issues, they can’t be as bad as the interior build of modern Mercedes which is pretty bad. Looks expensive, feels cheap. We say go for a Tesla they offer better EV technology and are ahead of the game when it comes to their supercharging network.

We’re not being sponsored by Tesla, we certainly decided to end all outreach and communications with their UK team (weird-ass). Our advice is go for a Tesla, put up with first-generation problems if you are minded to go down the electric car route.
