I have had my eye on the 3D MAXpider Kagu mats, but as I'm waiting for my car I haven't pulled the trigger yet. There are not a lot of comparisons between the two out there, but they are similar in some ways to the Tuxmats, mostly in that they are not butt-ugly like most of the other options.
I think the biggest difference is the coverage area. The Tuxmats extend under the seats and around the front of the seat rails. They also climb up the side of the center console. The back seat mat extends all the way up to the seat cushion and wraps around. Not sure that much coverage is really needed, but it definitely covers a lot more than any other mats I've seen.

They also look like they take the design of the cargo shelf in back into consideration and can crease and fold if you want to lift the panel and get underneath it.
I could see how that would be helpful if the cargo load floor folded, but it's just one solid piece. I didn't bother ordering the Tuxmat cargo mat because the OEM rubber cargo mat seems fine for the trunk.

These look very nice, but I am not a fan of the solid piece rear mats. Too hard to empty the whole long piece rather than individual sides. you end up spilling the mess on the carpet and seats. not a good design for cleaning.
this guy cleans.

Does anyone know if the cargo mat can be used in the lower position? I tend to always leave the cargo area floor in the lowest position and have seen other cargo mats not work.

Thanks,

Ken~

I don't think anyone has gotten this one yet to test it. But I can tell you that the OEM rubber mat works great in the lower position. It's in the upper position that it doesn't fit very well.

yeah there's even a note on this in the in-box instructions telling you to lower it when installing the mat. it's not terrible in the upper position, but it's clearly not "right" either.

I am a big tuxmat fan for EVs, they also have some insulating quality for cold winter days. Not sure what % of improvement, but every little bit helps.

They did not have Tuxmats for MME FE yet back in February, so I bought the Ford Wx mats. Tempted to buy these anyway. They have a nice look, and to me give a sense of warmness to the interior.

My previous EV Tuxmats started to look kind of grungy part way through winter, but when I cleaned up the car to sell it, I was always amazed at how well and how easily they cleaned up and then looked like new.

They still have the pay it forward program (my name for it) where if you include anyones recent order, you get $10 off. If someone PMs me their recent order number (can only be used once), I will do the same with my order, so the next person gets the $10 coupon.

Also, they have a contest running that ends Oct. 11 for a free set (no affiliation), odds are low, but what the heck: https://www.facebook.com/tuxmat/

Do you just need the order number? I ordered through their Amazon store. Not sure if that matters, but I can send you my order number if it will help.

Let's try it, then we will know. I always get Tuxmat invoice like sheet in the box, there might be an order number on that sheet. Thanks!

Should be only the order number that we need, but each one only works once.

Is the Tuxmat branding tag stamped in or can it be easily removed and not show a mark where it was? I like the mats, don't care for the branding.

I don't have a set so I can't be for certain, but looking at the photo, there appears to be an indentation around the logo, which leads me to believe its stamped.
