The Model Y is prettier and performs better, not to mention the charging infrastructure in place is a huge bonus. For Renault to overcome all of that, bloody well done.

    Fuck off 😂

    Oh my fucking god, have you ever even left the US? 😂 The charging infrastructure in France is geared towards universal charging, not towards wanking off one billionaire

      Tesla charging infrastructure is very good in France too. It’s good in general as well, but there are a lot of tesla-branded chargers. Quite a lot of Tesla cars as well.

      I’ve never been to the USA. Have driven around the UK in electric cars though. It’s a much smoother experience in a Tesla.

        Ah, didn’t realise the UK was gargling Elon’s cock too. Dunno where you got the idea that Tesla has the infrastructure in other countries though

          Is it gargling Elon’s cock when prior to him opening up his network to third parties, no other charger network was touching the Tesla network for ease of access/convenience and charging speed/power? Not to mention cost.

              And still I’m yet to find a charger, let alone network that matches the output of the supercharger.

                I have no beef in this, but I think the fastest charging car on the European continent is currently the Lotus Emeya. However, it can’t reach its maximum charge speed on Tesla Superchargers due to voltage limitations there. I did not study this in depth but perhaps worth checking it out if you want to prove your point. I would enjoy reading what either of you discover regardless of the ourcome.

                  To be honest, it’s not really a hill I’m willing to die on. Tesla have the largest fast charge network in Europe. It averages an output of between 150-250 KW. The next fastest network maxes out at 150 KW. Yes, there’s bound to be faster chargers available, but we’re talking about tech for the masses.

                  Just because I can put my personal feelings about Musk aside to acknowledge the supercharger network doesn’t mean I like or endorse him or his businesses. What I want is for his businesses to all be made obsolete. If I have a horse in the race, it’s actually probably Lime Bikes, but in terms of cars, I’m hoping BYD, Kia and Hyundai can become mainstays. As for charger networks, I would like to see them move out of the hands of manufacturers and into the hands of the nations.

                    The entire argument doesn’t make sense?

                    EU Tesla’s use EU standard CCS connectors.
