The Model Y they've got would appear to be one of the early UK ones - I tried a similar age demo back in February.

Purchased Tesla MYP few months ago over others after extensive test drives - no regrets

I'm in the US and had a few build issues on my 22 MYP but they were fixed very easily and quickly once they got the part that was needed. The car has been super reliable and ZERO out of pocket cost and maintenance on the first 10k miles of ownership "knock on wood". Even on 21" rims ride seems suitable for a performance car. My 2022 cars feels a lot more premium and quiet compared to 20-21 models I test drove. I had a 2015 MB c300 with air suspension and the Y seems marginally stiffer. Mach E looks like a great car. For me it's all about the charging network and software advantage Tesla has. As more EVs are on the market the charging network will be more crucial and busy on road trips, especially on holidays weekends. Tesla is doing a better job at keeping up, and you always have the option to use 3rd party chargers. The software, even without carplay, is a lot more refine imo.

There is a big difference between that earlier model Y and current ones. I received mine 3 weeks ago and was expecting some quality issues, there weren't any! And the ride is excellent. I am currently in Italy having just driven here in the Y. It had less than 200 miles on the clock when I set off.. It will have 2000 when I return. Big big big win is charging network. I did look at all the other cars on market, but they really don't come close £ 4 £

There's a bit of a rumble at speed, but I've not found it bothersome so far. The one-pedal driving's a revelation and much better than having to brake, find a suitable gear, etc. The only thing I don't like at the moment is that the car occasionally and randomly gets the idea it's being driven off the side of the road and sounds a loud, panicky alarm.

Pretty much everything re software (both app and in-car), efficiency and range, and usually power, is *significantly* better on Teslas than ANY one else. (Some exceptions- Rivians and Taycan are faster, Taycan and recent Koreans can charge faster...) Tesla app has a lot more features and car controls than the more generic FordPass app, which has decent controls. The Tesla app and software are constantly updated... around every 3wks. Significant features and tweaks get added every few months (recently added tire pressures to app, remote Sentry camera viewing etc) Others are... a couple times a year.

Excellent comparison video. I took delivery of my Y LR at Q2 end. It is giving us everything I had hoped. However, living in London with its neglected roads, you won't need county lanes to experience the stiffness - I never thought I would be grateful for a 20mph limit. Now then, take her on the mainland of Europe and wow; what a smooth drive on their excellent first world roads; even the country lanes are billiard table smooth. The downside side of that is the locals drive like they are on a one way race track. Fortunately, their hedge edges are also well maintained so no clear coat damage. As already mentioned, the superb charging network combined with the Y's range provides great peace mind. Finally, is she an inflated ugly M3? Noooo! How very dare you! She looked so different from different angles and like my dear girl, all of them are lovely. P.S."Lizzie" is red with white and naked 19" Gemini's so no plastic to tap.

You didn't mention the payload that each car can carry. The Model Y can clearly carry more volume, but is the payload sufficient?

There is a world of difference between the two and you did a pretty good job pointing them out. I own a Model Y Long Range and my build quality from Austin TX was flawless. I will say that the Mach E at certain times is a better looking vehicle than the Y but then there are times I look at my Y and think it is freaking awesome. I've tinted out the front windows and ditched the aero covers and got after market ones that look similar to the uber turbine caps. The Mach E is still a very nice looking EV but for the price you can get a Y with more interior space, a bigger frunk and more range and cheaper than the Mach E .....plus you don't have to pay the dealer mark up. Also, the Y has a better infotainment than the Mach E....With access to a full browser, Netflix, Hulu, Disney +, KZread and more. Plus it has games and a way better over the air update support system. And these long lead times for charging at home etc. they're talking about must be 0% to 100% because on a typical night simply recharging what I've used in my day we're talking about a 3 to 5 hours charge while I sleep. And from about 20 or 30% to 80% at a V3 (250kw) super charger takes me less than 30 minutes...but only need to use those when I take the occasional road trip I get what he said about being able to just hit a button when you need something. In my gas car there are buttons there I've never used. They just collect dust. In my Y this isn't an issue. Even though it has just two buttons per se, you can accomplish what you need by hitting one of those buttons and using voice commands. SO I don't miss the buttons at all. We'll leave the charging network out of this for now since Tesla may be opening up to everyone soon.

What happened to function and price? Would you choose your spouse on looks only?

The wheels on the base model are OK, you were touching the aero covers.

Good comparison, thank you. I have a feeling Tesla recently softened the undercarriage of the Y making the ride comfort better.

Being an American and being 65 years old I have watched the mustang throughout its entire life. And written in many. Ford has always had a problem with not so great looking interior and seats that just don't look good all throughout history. Compared to GM and Camaro the interior and the seats in their products far outshined ford. I myself drive a Ford F-150 and it has big comfortable seats unlike what the mustang ever had. But the main reason I don't care for the new electric mustang is that it has four doors! They should have took the pony off of it and called it something else. Sports cars do not have four doors. The model 3 has never been labeled a sports car or the model y. And there's always a lingering question of the equipment under the hood which Sandy Monroe has always pointed out more Tesla's cooling systems and such are way less complicated and have a smaller volume, and Ford's high performance mustang EV right out of the gates had problems with its shutting down into low power mode after 5 seconds of high performance, and for strange reasons Ford has never said anything else about this. They leave the public wondering if forever fixed that problem and it can do high performance as long as the owner wants it to, or if it is still a nagging problem that they can't figure out how to fix. Tesla is open with everything as far as what is going on with its products. But legacy auto, is known to deceive, cover up, and flat out lie about their products systems and specs. I will trust and honest company everyday before I will trust a deceitful line company who is always tried everything they could to make their cars to where you have to bring them in to be worked on because everything is so complicated and hard to get to on purpose. I bought my Ford pickup used and it has been good which Ford pickups have always been good but my next vehicle will be Electric with my Ford finally wears out. Right now I have $248,000 MI and still running good so I'm sure it will be two or three years before I need something even though my pickup is a 2003 model.

The main innovations that traditional car companies have refined and perfected over the years and have used as a moat to prevent new entrants relate to ICE technology, manufacturing and supply chain. ICE doesn't matter for EVs, manufacturing and supply chain for EV parts again are different and Tesla is obviously improving every quarter on those fronts too. Tesla's net profits per car is almost 9x Toyota's - think about that and why that could be and you'll understand how fish out of water the traditional car companies are in this new game. In EV land, what does matter a lot is batteries and the traditional car companies are the ones playing catch up - 140 miles in 40mins charge time vs 185 miles in 30mins. Other metrics are important too, but there isn't a meaningful metric when it comes to batteries that Tesla isn't way better at. The car companies will muddle through because the 50 year old+ demographic will prefer what they're used to. But that market is quite literally dying every day.

Another thought I'm having is we have to get to the point where we don't talk about range so much with BEVs. When you do most car reviews, petrol cars, it's all about acceleration, handling, which one feels this or that, and yeah if one doesn't have as good a fuel economy as another, so be it. These are still cars and you have to live with how they feel as they transport you wherever you want to go. How often you need to charge it will be your business at some point I hope.

The ease or ordering and pick up for the Tesal is much better as far as that goes. The Mach-E does have some features that I prefer over the Model Y though. It’s a tough call.

I’ll take the Mach E. I prefer cars that don’t catch fire in my garage

Hi guys, good video but a few things you didn't talk about in this comparison : 1. Over the air updates - with Tesla you have full OTA updates - does the Mustang have the same? I currently drive an MG ZSEV which I love, but if the is an update to do, I have to drive a 200 kms round trip to go back to the MG dealer. 2. Heat pumps - important to have if you want to drive in a warm cabin. Tesla has one, does the Ford ? 3; Overall driving efficiency - I suspect that on any comparable journey the Tesla will use less electrons than the Ford, due to it's mechanical elegant engineering. So, which one will deliver cost effective transport? The Tesla Model Y, imho.

Might be with Tesla that works, but had an EQE for a week with air suspension and have to say that the mechanical adaptive dampers from ZF Sachs used at the moment by Mercedes AMG, Maserati and of course on my EV6 AWD Kia are quite equal on the same heavy road. Teslas are remarkable less comfortable and same the Mach-e I could also test. Comparing objectively from making quality, charge performance, handling on a track and mountain roads, noise, recuperation, consumption, warranty of 7 years, 800 Volts-System such as Rimac-Bugatti and Porsche Taycan. Do not care if 3 or 5 seconds to 100 km/h in a straight line but like curvy roads and pricise steering. Only the Kia was fine-tuned by Albert Biermann who headed BMW M Sports, which stand for the ultimate driving machines never matched by Ford itself.

@@rogerstarkey5390 There's conflicting rumours about whether the Berlin built Model Y has softer suspension. Apparently the coils are the same. I wish Tesla would just come out and say something official because the ride comfort is the thing that probably puts most buyers off. It certainly is me and I'm so keen to know if the suspension really is better.

Why ? Bent steel is just as comfortable as compressed air.

Model Y has a very nice rim under the hubcaps. The 18 in rim also gives it a better ride. The hubcaps can be replaced with after market as well. Have you seen the moose test between the Model Y and Mach-E. Please review before making final decision to buy.

The boot space in liters in the Tesla is up to the glass while it’s up to the backseats in the Ford.

I prefer the Mach-E premium over the Y. The Y just seems like a cheap low budget car on the inside compared to the Mach-E. The Y's frunk hood feels so cheap and you have to be very careful shutting it or it can be damaged. Getting out of the Y's drivers seat is also harder because the distance from the seat edge to the car edge is so large. I'm shorter so have to pivot almost 90 degrees so my knee is out enough for my foot to touch the ground which is one of the biggest reasons I prefer the Mach-E. The Mach-E is quieter on the road and freeway as well. The Y had a lot of noise in my left ear (wind, road, and inverter) when on the freeway. The Mach-E also seems to ride better.

I replaced a much loved X5 Msport with a MY LR (acceleration boost 511HP 0-60 in 4.2s) … I utterly love my Tesla … its way better than any other car up to £100K

Yep, pretty spot on imo. The Y is close to ideal for a EV SUV 😊

ADD after market Buttons

What's with the intense Skrillex style music when they're talking. Not sure it adds much.

And serious people might just check out the "Moose Test" for both cars. Oh, and let's look under the hood.

when the Mach E was £41k 2WD it was good value but the model 3 was a similar price now the Mach E AWD is trying to compete with the model Y, no chance. Prices have all gone up but the Mach E is overpriced. The new model Y RWD will be interesting?

Thanks for another well presented video. I agree with you in that the Ford looks great but electric cars are all about technology and so the Tesla wins. I want faster charging, more range and the supercharger network which seals the deal for me.

I saw the Mach E for the first time. It's a big car. Wish I knew before I got the Ariya.

Model Y - tried almost all of them - it won hands down - even without the supercharger network.

The Y's transmission of bumps is a problem. It was the first thing I noticed when driving one. Tesla needs to offer a tunable suspension.

Thanks for this. Love your reviews! One consideration for US viewers, though. Not sure if this is still the case, but when the MACH-E was released, I believe Ford was still eligible for the $7K EV instant rebate, and Tesla has exhausted it.

Surprised the UK MachE is so expensive! That's one of the few advantages the MachE has over Tesla in the states... only other things might be 360o birds-eye top down camera view for parking (Tesla has lots of autopilot driving cameras, but not for parking), and AM radio & Sirius XM (Tesla has FM, Slacker,Spotify,TuneIn,Tidal?, and.. Car-aoke :) .) Ford also has Android Auto and Apple Carplay, if you prefer those.. Everything else, besides if you like some physical buttons, the Tesla should do better. Especially, the infotainment UI , maps/nav and app... MUCH better. I am still trying to help my parents understand all the features and complicated menus and settings and overlapping windows on their MachE Ford Sync UI... too complicated, too many settings, voice control is slow, map isn't very detailed, ?no satellite view option ($10/mo for Tesla)... it's just slower and harder and more confusing to work with. Tesla has a MUCH sleeker and faster UI and voice controls, bigger more detailed always-on map, always-visible (and customizable) apptray icons to instantly launch preferred music/controls, etc.. just works much better and more intuitively. They could do better labelling (and having more) buttons, though... Tesla standard AutoPilot seems significantly better and more consistently usable everywhere, as well... Ford BlueCruise does decently well, but tends to "give up" at random spots (turn is bit too sharp, road lines confusing, maybe unmapped area... and just gives up w/ no audible warning!)

Polestar 2 is a different car. It's a proper sporting company tuning a car designed to be a Volvo s40 but wasn't used by Volvo. It's not on a dedicated platform and doesn't have the room in it these two cars have. The upcoming Polestar 3 will be much bigger but more expensive and a ground-up BEV. What is more competitive is the 4 but that's not going to be introduced until late next year.

Having driven both cars but commenting before I watch the video. my choice is the Mustang Mach E simply because I really enjoyed driving it and it looks far superior to the boring Tesla. let's see if the video changes my mind.

Interestingly both had vibrations in the steering wheel when I drove them recently. And the brake pedal of the Mach E is not progressive at all + I found the huge blind spots a bit more of an issue than the reviewers. Mach E looks better, but I would chose the Tesla all thinks considered.

Both nice cars but I really want neither....I have a 2023 Kona Ultimate and we love it and our Kia EV6 LR RWD is about 3 months away! BUT if I had to chose, really had to chose between the 2 - the lesser of 2 weevils...I would chose the Mach E....just on looks. Hard to get a better charging network than Tesla and they have some great features but I am not a fan on the looks...just a personal thing! Mike :)

The best comparison Ive seen to date. In my experience,Tesla service and support over the last 8 years 130,000 uk miles has been outstanding, I wont be buying any other brand let alone the performance and reliability. The over the air updates means my car just does not seem to age and I know appearance is subjective but I think Tesla got it right on day 1. A Tesla has a Tesla look, it ages well and to me to a great degree Teslas design choices always ruffle some feathers but 90% of the time they tend to be ahead of us users. The use of synthetic in cabin sound to me is typical of the backwards looking mentality of legacy manufactures and in s few years time when we have all got used to the silence of electric drive will be looked on as an unwanted oddity. Model Y every time for me and that before Ill even bring in the Supercharger network which has been 100% 24/7 uptime record. Yes Tesla are going to open up the network but they have complete capability to monitor usage and feedback and you can bet your life if they see Tesla owners having to que (Ive only ever had to twice in 8 years) they will amend the system / increase the charging bays / sites............this is better for all concerned.

I have to pick Tesla based on I believe if I have any issues they will be the most experienced on repairing it and I have heard that upgrades are done over the air and Tesla is very good at that.

It has nothing to do with schools. What works works and what doesn't doesn't. There are people with this fallacious belief that screens are some sort of new school when they are not. We've been using screens for a long time and now they are the trend in car consoles. That doesn't make them "new school" anymore than power windows are. They're just becoming ubiquitous. If you need to be focused and not distracted, studies show that screens aren't the answer. So do what works and not what is trendy. Get back to the purpose of driving.

I like the mach-e a lot and do agree it is slightly better looking. (although white is the worst color for both cars imo) However if i'm going to own a car its the Y all day. Better range/specs, more space and the biggest factor would be the charging network for me. Here in the states electrify america is utter trash and Tesla really puts all the competitors to shame in this regard. The fact that its cheaper too is just a bonus.

It boils down to function and efficiency. Body is designed for low coefficient. Functionally is impressive. Everything else looks like an ICE car with a motor.

Great video... Touch screens are annoying & dangerous. Although I agree the Ford Mustang can look better, for the money the Model Y has technology that is miles ahead of the Ford. However in the UK both Ford & Tesla are too expensive. I would be putting my £60k on other brands.... On a final note... Rumours are that Tesla are dropping their prices in 2023.

Mach E is a nice attempt, but if you’re considering any Ford *PLEASE* look into the safety record pouch battery cells when using Nickel-based cathodes. It’s a matter of time before all car makers switch to cylindrical battery cells like Tesla. LFP cell chemistry does just fine with Prismatic / Pouch cells… Ford will eventually switch to LFP too.

If you play the design department Ford wins. But yeah Tesla has so many positives. I did go for the model 3 LG and shoud get it this week.
