ONVO L60 IS THE FIRST SERIOUS TESLA MODEL Y COMPETITOR I’VE DRIVEN

EV Channels Review

The Onvo L60 emerges as a compelling contender against the Tesla Model Y, particularly in the Chinese market, offering a significant price advantage of $7,000-$10,000 USD spec-for-spec. The reviewer highlights its impressive rear-seat comfort, spaciousness, and premium features like heated, cooled, and massaging front seats, a dark headliner, and a unique reclining rear seat function that transforms into a near-flat bed. The vehicle boasts a sophisticated, camera-based driver assistance system with FSD-like capabilities, which the reviewer found less intrusive than Tesla's. However, a major drawback identified is the absence of one-pedal driving, a feature the reviewer considers a significant miss. While the interior design is generally pleasing and Tesla-esque, the reviewer notes the center console's white plastic feels cheap. Performance is strong, with the dual-motor variant offering brisk acceleration comparable to a Model Y Long Range. The ride quality is described as firm but comfortable, potentially slightly sportier than the outgoing Model Y. Overall, the L60 presents a strong value proposition with advanced tech and comfort features, making it a serious competitor, though the lack of one-pedal driving is a notable compromise.
