The problem as I am reading into the Model S (remember the thread the other day), is that the Tesla is a one trick pony. It is "ludicrous" in terms of speed from a dead stop as long as the battery is above 95%, but in any acceleration test where you're in a roll, the Tesla is slower, much slower. As a matter of fact, C&D tested it and a Charger Hellcat in a 40 - 150 run, and the Model S was 6 seconds slower. Now I get that 40 - 150 was a little on the extreme side, but still... Also, the next argument is "how often do you run from a roll?" Actually quite often. I get very few people that want to challenge my V from a roll, but on the highway, I get it all the time. So this is a pretty important issue for me.
Also, You have to give it 3 minute intervals between flogging as the batteries and electric motor start to overheat. And of course repeated flogging reduces the range commensurately.
I'm sure Mike and LastLS1 will come in and try to refute it, but I've now read this in several reviews.
The point being is, it is stupid fast from a dig, after that it simply becomes a normal car just powered by batteries instead of gas.
