The Tesla Model 3 is longer and more powerful than the Jaecoo E5, whilst also going further on a charge and proving more efficient. Both cars offer good visibility, making them easy to place in tight spots. In the back seats of each, you do not get much under-thigh support. When it comes to driving, the two differ on winding stretches. If you enjoy taking the scenic route home, the Model 3 is a great choice, whereas twisty roads prove the Jaecoo E5's undoing.
