Excellent review. I guess the real life comparison will be a side by side by side of this bolt with the Tesla models 3 and "Y" and the new Volkswagen I-4. One thing is clear though Tesla is going to have severe competition in the mid market range for EV's which will only increase when Ford enters its new electric "Mustang" model
I do round trip commute from Las Vegas to Santa Barbara every other week (>700 miles) with my 2015 Tesla Model S and autopilot handles 90% of driving, including back roads (new autopilot should handle nearly 109% of drive). Did it once last year with friend's new Cadillac with Super Cruise and will never do again - was a nightmare and didn't do anything other than highways and failed in all construction zones. Tesla's are safer than any other vehicles, have most advanced technology, are inexpensive to operate, are easiest of any vehicle for long distance drives (you arrive refreshed instead of beat), and fun to drive.

Oh the Mach-E is out — it's on my list, should have it soon I hope!

Hi Arnold, I don't disagree with you that Autopilot is fantastic for being refreshed on a road trip!
I did a 1600-mile trip in a Model X for a review a few years ago. I'd encourage you to give it a read: https://arstechnica.com/cars/2018/01/teslas-model-x-a-lovely-roadtripper-with-stiff-daily-driving-competition/
