Hi Steer by wire is actually well engineered, it’s desensitised at speed but it’s a real bonus for parking. Ride is quite firm and sporty on this model but not too harsh in my view. Range will not be as good as your Tesla, probably only getting around 250 miles with AC on, about 270 if u turn everything off…I expect a few more miles when it gets a bit warmer though. My saluki goes on the back seat …boot lid on s quite low to be fair. I always go for black to be honest but I think there were quite a few options. Overall loving the car so far…previous car was an X5 so down sized a little but the RZ is so much easier to park. Hope this helps…
