I know a couple folks who roll with a Leaf and that does seem to sum it up pretty well.

What feels missing from the other EV videos is to look at the other vehicles in comparison. The Mach E, in particular, seems like an overreaction to the Leaf’s (or maybe the Focus Electric?) issues. The big takeaway I got off the Mach E video was not that it was bad, but that the price on it was bad.

Ford used 10% of the battery capacity as low/high buffer, while competitors use less than half that. That’s driving up the cost of the vehicle a few thousand right there. Dig around and find a few more of those mistakes (was a frunk even necessary or just added expense emphasize no-gas-engine?) and you’d have a car with pretty much all the good parts of the Mach E, but with a lot more attractive price on it.
