Had a ride in a Tesla model 3 performance on the weekend and all I can say is WOW !! Straight line acceleration is phenomenal. From stand still, we achieved 113kmh in less than four seconds. I have it on video. I have never experienced such ferocious acceleration. It nearly gave me a heart attack LOL.
Entering that Tesla was a life changing experience as from that moment I realized that petrol cars were dead. I honestly am holding out for an EV as I see no point going petrol any more.
As more manufactures get on board, prices will drop and they will only get better.
Pros:-
- Performance
- No noise (can come home at 3am without waking up the neighbourhood)
- Little maintenance
- Cheap to run (fill er up at home)
- Zero emissions (ok maybe some brake dust)
- No need to tinker/modify (for some this could be a negative)
Cons:-
- Cost (will improve over time)
- Re-charge times (will improve over time)
- No tinkering or modifying (for some this could be a positive)
- Disruptive to the auto industry. Will put a lot of people out of work.
Like to hear your thoughts.
