The sound is okay, but at times doesn't match up. Also have to get use to focusing purely on throttle management due to no gear shifts or revs. Range is fine, but charging network lags behind Tesla, and Electrify America has poor reliability and service, not to mention the back roads I drive to have no chargers in sight. My biggest issue was the price, for the car I drove I could get a nice Model 3 and 718 GTS 4.0 and the interior is a bit cramped. I definitely want to try out a 4S when the sport turismo comes out.

I'll skip this generation electric since I find it is too much in its infancy. Not enough range and insufficient charging speed/infrastructure on the street and at race tracks for it to work for me as a dual use car. But it is quite possible that my next purchase in ~4 years will be electric, they are progressing fast.

Agree, I have much bigger hopes for the second-gen products. Hopefully the new Macan EV will be great.
