GM also had the EV1. They did it long before Tesla was even a thing.Tesla already has significant prestige - they have a history of building innovative high-performance electric vehicles. GM doesn't - their EV history consists of the Volt. So it's hardly surprising that Model 3 is more highly anticipated than the Bolt.
There's also infrastructure to consider... does GM have the equivalent of Tesla's supercharger network for example? Not much point in a 200 mile EV if you can't get anywhere once the range is reached.
The Model 3 starts at $35K before tax breaks, and there's no way in hell yours getting one at that price with the inevetable options.The Bolt is a 30K after taxbenefits hatchback, the Model 3 is a 30K before taxbenefits sedan. They're like, totally different cars that have NOTHING in common, apart from the price-range and being an EV.

Line-up at the Tesla dealer in Montreal went around the block, all the way in front of the Mercedes dealer lol

Bit of a bummer with that tax refund, if you put in an order now expecting to get the full value and then it turns out you got phased out.
I really don't know what to say at this point. People would rather wait a year?PM
There's probably 150+ people in line in Bellevue Washington with 3 hours until the store opens.
I really don't get the hype with Tesla. Why are people waiting in-line for a car that no-one knows anything about. For all we know it could be a disappointment with only 200 mile range???
It's crazy the amount of hype this company is generating, when considering they are making a similar product that is the same as competition but with range problems. I could understand if hey are the first electric car that beats the all the competition and is a market leader but that simply is not the case.
Hype out of nowhere. I am amazed.

You can always get your money back. For me, Tesla has earned this. Each car of theirs has been absolutely phenomenal. They deserve all the hype and fanfare.

As are most cars that cost in the region of $70k+.
You literally cannot buy a bad car from most leading manufacturers for that kind of money. Not to mention numerous Teslas have had severe reliability problems after 50k of mileage.

My brand new BMW 335XI E90 (2008 model) was 82K CAD after taxes. I'm so, so, SO happy I sold it. My only regret is having to keep it for so long.
I could have purchased another new car all together (civic class) after the amount of repairs I had to put into that car. So, no, you actually and literally can by a bad car from leading manufacturers.
is that am or pm for the reveal?
Its not out of no where, people have drove and tested these cars, and they are very well made cars. That's it.
I just don't see what Tesla offers something so ground breaking that deserves this hype?

At the end of the day it is still a car with 4 wheels. As a car is cannot yet even compete with the petrol/diesel in terms of range, one of the most important if not the most important feature. Yet the hype makes it sounds like its the best car ever.
Very cool looking car with a lot of technology behind both it's entertainment centre and electric engine. Also is fast, really fast.
There, I just answered your question.
It's electric.
Yes it's electric, but due to that has some major compromises because of that.
I could understand if it was the first electric car that can compete with range and price with normal cars. But this is simply not yet viable and won't be for a while.
Yeah that must be it then.
I have never before seen a cool looking car, that is fast and has technology in it.
A worlds first, we have here....

Why is it not viable?
The hell you talking about, it has been viable for the people that bought their cars and if it wasn't a viable option, there wouldn't be a line up for their cars right now.

My commute from my new place is 46 miles round trip. I would only need to charge the Model 3 once a week.I meant not viable in terms of matching the range and price of normal cars today.
it's okay F1Fan, there are cars I don't like too

What is this pathetic hyperbole? 99% of people on this planet? First of all around 26% of people on the planet are under 15. Please go away. As sales of what have shown? Luxury EVs and EVs with extremely low range?Its not yet viable in terms of matching todays cars. And it's not viable for 99% of people on this planet, as sales have shown.
