Hyundai will have the EV Kona on the street in a couple months. 258 mile range for 37k before tax credits and discounting when Hyundai gets the volume up. The Car mags that have reviewed it, love it. Good looking small SUV unlike that butt ugly front end of the Model 3 Tesla Sedan. Competition will hurt Tesla, better looking equal priced high end stuff from Europe, low end more affordable cars from Nissan, Hyundai and others. Once the Status symbol wears off Tesla and the vanity driven millennials are onto the next new shiney thing Tesla will be in trouble. They are placing their bets with the China market and the new Factory they are building there. No doubt Elon will want to export from China and wind down California production to get profitable.

Nice, but the Kona is a subcompact. The Model 3 is midsize.
And what does it say about the EV market, that more competition will be showing up?
But will consumers love it? The Chevy Bolt has a similar range and it isn't flying off dealer lots. GM sold ~24K Bolts last year.
