- hvb2 4mo agoSure, but this isn't a Tesla... If you're going to drive this slowly you might as well buy a Tesla
- amarant 4mo agoTesla model S accelerates faster and has a higher top speed, and also more range on a smaller battery.... For a absolutely tiny fraction of the price! It also looks better than this Nissan leaf knock-off! I'm not the target market, this thing costs more than my house! But I do think the specs are... Disappointing...
- pavlov 4mo agoTesla Model S is discontinued. Whatever its merits, there wasn’t a market for it.
- lmm 4mo agoWhich suggests that a similar but worse product shouldn't sell either?
- pavlov 4mo agoThe brand name counts for a lot in this market. Lamborghini Urus sells well even though it’s inferior on every metric to cars a fraction of its price. Tesla lost its premium brand cachet and consequently the Model S/X market. Ferrari presumably has some data that there are buyers for a $500k scifi sports car with their logo on it.
- amarant 4mo agoJust pointing out that, technically, if you're gonna drive slow, the Ferrari is the appropriate choice over the Tesla.
- andsoitis 4mo ago> If you're going to drive this slowly you might as well buy a Tesla Model S Plaid has faster acceleration than Luce and they have similar top speed. Reportedly, the Luce has more nimble handling.
- kube-system 4mo agoThe reason you feel nauseous as a passenger has nothing to do with the maximum torque output of the vehicle, but because one-pedal driving mode amplifies bad driving habits by people who never learned how to use the accelerator pedal on a car properly. Way too many people stomp, release, and repeat. This works in Mario Kart when the A-button input is a boolean value but in a Tesla with one-pedal driving turned on you end up repeatedly accelerating or decelerating and never go a constant speed.
