"Crummy" - doesn't say much. It works as designed, is safe, fast, and the best electric available. It is now hitting 8 years on the market and has shown they keep running. I don't see mass battery replacement and haven't heard of mass expensive repairs needed to keep them running. If you want to compare them to a similar priced ICE I would say the interior isn't to the same standards, panel gaps, fit and finish. Someone said the screens have issues, anything else?

Ok. You didn’t address the “excluding the electric powertrain”.
Tesla is a crummy car when compared with others, excluding the means of energy storage and propulsion.
