I've been driving Chevy Volts for a while and I'm ready to take off the training wheels and go full EV. I'm comparing the I-Pace to the Model S. I think that Chevy does an excellent job with their EV tech (great track record on battery management/longevity and good miles/kWh), but I'm looking for a better interior and my Volt and the current Bolts are not great in this regard.
Similarly, I'm not a fan of the interior aesthetic in the Teslas. I'm probably only considering that car for access to the SuperCharger network.
I've made my peace with the JLR infotainment software as my wife drives a late model Range Rover. With recent updates, it's laggy but mostly stable and we use CarPlay anyway. I have enough experience with EVs that a flaky GOM won't throw me off. That seems to remove two of the common complaints regarding the I-Pace.
I'm starting to see great deals on 2019 demo cars that still have the tax credit, so I'm getting close to pulling the trigger.
Just wanted to introduce myself since I've been lurking for a while.
