Within the budget of 280,000 yuan, I gave up the Tesla Model Y and chose the Buick E5, and now I have driven 6,600 kilometers, let me share my experience with the car.
First of all, from the interior aspect, the interior of the Tesla Model Y is too simple, and it can even be said to be rudimentary. There is no dashboard, which makes people feel less refined. In contrast, the interior of the Buick E5 is eye-catching. The 30-inch screen on the center console is not only visually excellent, but also very practical. The interior of the car is made of a large number of soft leather materials, which are pleasant to the touch and give people a sense of luxury.
In terms of space, the Buick E5 also performs well. It is more spacious, providing passengers with a more comfortable ride. Whether it's the front or rear seats, there's plenty of room so you don't feel cramped. At the same time, the Buick E5 also makes more reasonable use of space, making the driver and passengers feel more comfortable in the car.
In terms of driving comfort, the Tesla Model Y's seat design is on the narrow side, which may not be very friendly to some larger passengers. In addition, the shock absorption effect of Tesla Model Y is also slightly stiff, and the comfort of driving and riding needs to be improved. In contrast, the Buick E5 performs better in terms of sound insulation and shock filtration. Especially at high speeds, wind and road noise are well suppressed, making the interior quieter. At the same time, the chassis shock absorption effect of Buick E5 is also very good, so that passengers in the car feel a more stable driving experience during driving.
However, there is a small regret that the rear seat angle of the Buick E5 cannot be adjusted. This is a little less than that of the Tesla Model Y. The rear seats of the Tesla Model Y can not only lie flat, but can also be adjusted according to the needs of passengers. This feature may be especially important for some families who often need to be outdoors.
Overall, there is not much difference between the Tesla Model Y and the Buick E5 in terms of range. The Tesla Model Y has a range of 554 km in the rear-wheel drive version, while the Buick E5 Avia has a range of 603 km. Both are designed to meet the needs of daily commuting.
To sum up, I don't regret giving up the Tesla Model Y in favor of the Buick E5. Each car has its pros and cons, and in terms of the current experience, I am very happy with the performance of the Buick E5. So, if it were you, would you choose the Tesla Model Y or the Buick E5?
