Top 3 EVs: The huge brand that the majority of people are familiar with is Tesla, and for good reason. The two best-selling EVs in 2021 came from the firm; they were the Model Y and Model 3. But because of the great demand, they might also be challenging for the typical customer to find. And as of now Tesla is not available in India.
So, if you want to add an EV to your garage but can’t find a Tesla, here are some alternative possibilities for you to think about now or in the future.
Top 3 EVs that Compete with Tesla
1. Ford Mustang Mach E
A 500 km driving range is expected for the Mustang Mach-E. Both a conventional 75.7 kWh battery and a 98.8 kWh extended-range variant of this crossover will be offered. Both models will be equipped with quick charging capabilities and come with a mobile charger. The Mustang Mach-E will have a lot of power and torque, meriting the Mustang moniker.
Contrary to how it appears, the Mach-interior is very different from the ordinary Mustang. The streamlined dashboard, with its attractive digital gauge cluster, is dominated by a sizable touchscreen that is vertically arranged. A floating, flip-up armrest on the centre console allows for storage of a handbag or other items between the front-seat occupants. There are several attractive luxuries, like heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, wireless charging, a panoramic sunroof, and many more. A 15.5-inch touchscreen that is positioned vertically and provides quick access to the system’s variety of programmes and features powers the Mustang Mach-E’s operating system.
