Is The Ford Mustang Mach-E Really Better Than Tesla Model 3 & Y?
Consumer Reports has long been a trusted resource for car buyers, and over the years, its coverage of Tesla has been objective and balanced. CR’s early rave review of Model S was an important vote of confidence for the then-young automaker, but the magazine later identified problems with Model X. In 2018, CR denied its coveted Recommended rating to Model 3 because of poor performance in a braking test—but quickly reversed its decision when Tesla fixed the brake problem. In 2020, the mag said Tesla was “absolutely the leader” in the EV market.
