2 cars · UK figures · two hosts to win
EV9 Air vs Model Y Performance
01The cut
EV9 Air leads on the figures you would actually use. You would notice WLTP range, Motorway estimate and Seats. You would not notice UK grant and Width.
A win is counted only where the gap is one you would notice, and only where two independent hosts agree on the figure. One-source numbers still print. Missing figures stay blank. We do not invent a score.

* Tesla publishes cargo volume its own way — often boot plus frunk, to the roof. It is not a VDA litre. We leave the asterisk rather than pretend they match.
