Got a Q4 eTron. Reasons not to get a tesla included: Musk's behaviour lately, quality of the Tesla product, in cabin controls, availability.

We've all seen the erratic behavior, so no need to go too far on what, but my wife really soured on him around the time of the kids trapped in a cave situation. That was the start for me too, but it's just gotten worse, and I don't want to be associated with that.

Had a friend get in my Audi for a test drive and was wowed by the build quality compared to his parent's Tesla, just night and day difference. Admittedly the software needs work, I notice issues the most on the user management side of things.

There are real buttons in my car, yes there is a touchscreen for plenty of options, but turning on my seat warmer is one button.

All electric cars were hard to get when we bought, we just happened to have a line on the Audi Q4 eTron that would get it in reasonable time. Had to be 4 wheel drive and able to tow a small trailer, and while the Tesla options offered that, so did the Audi and others. (Seems that 2022 model year was when all non-Tesla electric crossover sized vehicles started to offer towing.)
