Neither of them have anything close to Tesla's charging infrastructure, the brand appeal, nor are likely to have top end features like autopilot, summon etc. in their immediate offerings.
My guess is they offer very aggressive lease pricing after the initial buyers take delivery as many will be "waiting" for the model 3 and they will try to grab those slots and likely will for many because of the wait. My guess is supercharging will come with a big fee for usage so this will need to be adjusted. I would think that a Model 3 with NAV, super charging and the same driver assist level as the Model S will be at least $40-42K. From there it will be pack, performance and other options. Aggressive leases and fear of lost incentives and a likely $5-10K spread will make the Bolt possibly attractive to would be 3 buyers again. If they really blow out a great lease deal it could do well.
