My brother in law has the current gen, and it's a little tough to get out
of. Once it in fits nicely but it's very low.

Hans - one could argue that this concept IS a modern set-up.... ;-) Based
on my first month with my Tesla Model Y, I'd absolutely consider anything
with an electric drivetrain from this point on. I don't plan to buy another
internal combustion vehicle for my daily use.
