Porsche is looking to give Tesla a run for its money.
The German car maker on Monday (Sept. 14) took the wraps off its first all-electric vehicle at the Frankfurt Auto Show. A concept car, the Porsche Mission E sports the ability to go from zero to 100 kilometers (62 miles) per hour in less than 3.5 seconds, an 800-volt drive system, and a battery that charges to 80% capacity in 15 minutes—reportedly faster than Tesla’s Superchargers. Fully charged using a special 800-volt charging system, the Mission E can travel more than 500 km—or about 400 km after a 15-minute charge.
Many concept cars remain just that—a concept. But Porsche expects it to be a production car within five years, according to USA Today.

I bet Elon Musk is fapping to this while Richard Branson watches in the corner.

Want. Might have to save the pennies for this one. Lose that low intake on the front and make it all a spoiler.

About the same.

But I'm sure Tesla will be way past that when this thing actually is ready to be produced. I'd imagine Tesla will be at least 400 mile range within 5 years if not sooner.
