Presented by Starr Auto RentalsHow The Tesla Model X and S Stand Against Luxury Rivals

The Future is NowThe future of the car industry is in electric vehicles. Almost every car making company in the world is aware of this.

But Tesla Motors still stands out among all of them. First, it is not a conventional car maker converted to electric cars.

Each and every all-electric vehicle to be unveiled in the past few years has been aimed at Tesla's current or future models.

The latest in this herd are two famous European luxury car makers, Audi and Aston Martin.Can Audi & Aston Martin Keep Up with Tesla?

Audi's e-tron quattro to rival Tesla's Model X:

Audi will unveil an electric car in order to rival Tesla's Model X, and this car is expected to travel 310 miles on every charge.

It is an SUV provisionally named the 'e-tron quattro'. The SUV will go into series production beginning in 2018 as its first mainstream electric car. It is said to be priced at about $100,000 which is a tad below Tesla's current models.

Tesla Models Offer More SeatingOne of the negatives with Audi's e-tron quattro is that despite being an SUV, it has space for only four people. Tesla Model X, on the other hand, has seating for up to 7 people including two child seats at the back.

Aston Martin's 800-horsepower Rapide

While the EV industry is getting more and more interested in the range, speed and price of EVs, Aston Martin is trying its luck by taking an aim at Tesla with an 800-horsepower electric sedan.

Aston Martin CEO Andy Palmer has declared that the company will introduce an all-electric version of the Rapide model in about four years from now.

The car is expected to come equipped with an all-wheel drive and possess a range of about 200 miles per charge. Aston Martin will follow it up with an electric DBX crossover model.

Pricing for the plug-in Rapide is reportedly likely to fall somewhere between $200,000 and $250,000. In comparison, Tesla's Model S P85D starts at $105,000 and boasts a longer range of around 250 miles.

Also, compare that to the Tesla Model S P90D's starting price of about $118,000 and range of about 268 miles, it becomes clear that Aston won't be much of a threat. The acceleration and safety features of Tesla's models are far superior to that of Aston.

Tesla Leading Electric Car AutomakerAll in all, Tesla is still well-positioned to retain its strong position in the EV industry as Aston is not quite serious about the market, while Audi will take time to make reasonable progress.
