    Nia Niro EV is a better car, but Tesla has the only advantage about the Auto Pilot system.

    I suspect you have upset the Tesla fanboys with so many dislikes. No matter, l have been asking myself the same question. Opted for the Kia, don't want to drive at over 100mph or reach 60mph in under 7 seconds, l want to keep my driving licence & have a reasonable driving range. In the UK the Kia is considerably cheaper than the SR+, better range, better build quality, a 7 year warranty & is far more practical. The 2020 model also address some of the issues raised. It is also very good to drive.

      tesla electronic are fantastic yes I give you that, I love the dancing model x. I was going to buy a Tesla, but I did my homework and............ nope the build quality, paint job and customer service are crap STILL! So no I bought the e-Niro much better quality, fantastic paint job and great customer service.

    You answered my question, e-niro or Model 3, here in Sweden Model 3 long range costs around $67-68K and can go little bit up if chose 19" wheels and red color while e-niro Advance Plus with TECH-Paket costs about $53-53K, depending on change rate between SEK and USD, that pretty expensive for a budget EV but you get about $6K from the gov for EV bonus on both cars. Model 3 drives sporty but you feel the car interior is empty, it takes a while until we get used to interior with nothing but a big screen in the center...

    The two approaches are very different. The E -Niro seeks to replicate exisiting car controls with some enhancements. The Tesla with a large screen and minimalist amount of multi function buttons loks more futureistic but the E-Niro is easier to transfer existing driving skills. Both approaches are valid and time will tell :)

    I agree with you. The e-Niro is better. I have to children and the e-Niro is definitely a better choice as a family car. The rear seats are ridiculously small and uncomfortable on the Tesla. I also prefer the design of the Niro.

      I tried to do some research on the internet and every single serious test anybody performed had Kia manifest a better range than Model 3. Not a surprise though, Model 3 has a little better efficiency (in terms of miles per KWh), but Kia has 64 KWh battery while Model 3 SR+ only 54 KWh. We TSLA investors have to admit Kia made a surprisingly good EV. Now the question is why are they making so few of them and whether they are making money off of them.
      That being said, I don't agree with the comparison of the seats in the cars at all. Tesla makes their own seats and they are known for being super comfortable and not showing any wear after hundreds of thousands of miles driven in them.
