Ignore him.

His M.O. here is to constantly tear down Tesla, and to try to remove the positivity from any Tesla-related post.

Says much more about him than it does Tesla.

I think most Tesla's are in lane 1 because you find it's more efficient to be at a similar speed to other traffic in that lane. You do tend to have a different mindset when you've got an EV.

When I do motorway driving, I drive like I would any car, normally around 75mph. There's not really any point risking going any quicker with all the cameras around these days. Sometimes I go a little quicker, but on a long run I'll average around 3 - 3.5 mpkh

When I'm driving more locally, I tend the use the acceleration where range doesn't really matter as I can just charge up when I get home.

4mpkwh = 320 mile
3.5mpkwh = 280 mile
2.5mpkwh = 200 mile
2mpkwh = 160 mile
1.5mpkwh = 120 mile

If you nail it everyone, I can see 1.5 - 2 mpkwh being achievable.

of course...

Your referral record proves only that you know how to game a system.

Your posts on PH here tell the real story.

Your BS notwithstanding, a 0.7-1.0 second difference in the 1/4 mile (all tested by Motor Trend magazine, under the same conditions, ELIMINATING any rollout/no rollout discrepancy) is about 7-10 car lengths, which isn't "close" in anybody's book:

But wait, there's more:

Car and Driver test results show that the Performance is 0.7-0.9 seconds quicker to 60 mph than the LR, which is an ENORMOUS gap:

And let's not forget that the P's in-gear times, braking and roadholding are also far beyond the LR's, as shown in those same tests...

But keep posting your BS, and I'll keep posting facts.

Why are all EV owners so angry? Every single thread descends into name calling.
