The Model S, if fully loaded, can go 0-60 in under 3 seconds as a luxury sedan. That is absurd.



That isn't absurd at all. That is how electric motors work. The power output and efficiency will always crush the combustion engine. Tesla didn't invent some magic electric motor.

Yes, it is absurd that they have made a top-graded consumer vehicle that performs at supercar levels. The competitor set for Tesla Model S is not just electric vehicles but also luxury sedans with combustion engines. The speed is one tiny piece of what makes the Model S one of the best cars ever produced. If you fail to see the technological advancement Tesla is driving in the auto industry then you are honestly just being obtuse for the sake of it.
