Thanks for the list, I don't think that the ford mach e and BMW x3e will be available or offered at that price may be some wrong estimates or deliberately to mislead people or competitors.
I think the model Y with 7 seats and full autonomy offers the most utility and can be applicable to $13k off with incentives across from where I live, might be worth the move (y) con that and back again in a years time
I'm not a big fan of Crossovers but the Mustang Mach-E, Nissan Ariya, Skoda Vision IV and Polestar 2 look the best, have decent range and if all of them are sold under 50k they'll be the most appealing of this bunch!…
