On the waitlist for it, but the initial price (for the Turbo) was WAY too high. Dealer told me I can keep my spot in line and can just order the regular S when it comes out so I think that's what I'm going to do. Was also looking at a Model S Tesla, but I think this looks WAY better.

So if you charge this battery to 90% then you only get 180mi of range...compared to a Model S at 335mi (90% of the 373)...

this is laughable

And if it's windy and cold you'll get 100 miles and then if you drive it like a Porsche on top of that ... :picard:

I hope Tesla tries to push it to 500 miles with new models but unfortunately it looks like they'll be chasing Porsche on performance.

Which one?

Every 3 months there's a new article about a breakthrough battery technology that's never going to happen. Or in the best case scenario is 15-20 years away from even making it out of a lab.

They are shooting for both range and performance. Just look at the Cybertruck. They are promising 500mi and a 2.9 0-60 on the top model. Think of what that battery and drive train will get you on S, 3, & X...

Sulphur, graphene, zinc, solid-state :unimpressed:
