Worse. I own a 2019 Model 3 and hope to replace it this year with a non-Tesla EV.

Their software updates often have infuriating UX changes that Elon tries to justify by saying shit like "all input is error" only to backpedal amid growing dissatisfaction. And they trumpet the most worthless shit with so much fanfare like it's the greatest thing since sliced bread.

E.g. in Dec 2021 the V11 update came with the asinine decision to remove quick-toggles for the defroster and heated seats, requiring one extra menu layer to be brought up first. Took a few more months before the toggles were added back but who the fuck signed off on their removal in the first place?

Meanwhile the LTE modem can take 5-10 minutes to reconnect after leaving a dead zone like an underground garage (which cripples the GPS functionality), while all my phones reconnect in milliseconds. Still no fix for that. I literally have to turn on my phone hotspot every time I get in the car to ensure the nav will work properly.

The auto wipers are also the worst in the entire industry - still no fix to at least let me toggle a default minimum speed.

But hey, I now have Disney Plus and stupid touchscreen games in the infotainment system and the car can perform light shows on demand! OMG! Greatest car ever made!
