Default Tesla Club of Sweden: Test Drive of a petrol car

http://teslaclubsweden.se/test-drive-of-a-petrol-car/

Very cheekily written. Was laughing along even though I'm a petrol head. If this is the future it's going to be quite simple indeed.

I remember when Car & Driver tested Tesla sedan they had to wait for it to cool down after every acceleration run and charge it 15 times during a test when a really thirsty petrol car would take 3 or 4 tanks. Apart from that , yes , it is fast and probably way of the future . Might take a while though.

Wouldn't that had been the Lotus Elise based Roadster?

I know Tesla tried suing TopGear over some footage of it running out of electricity that was faked.
