    It does not matter if you produce CO2 with your car or somewhere else in a power plant. Unless your energy is produced without fossil energy, which is not possible by today's standards.

    Besides that the Model S uses prehistoric suspension and has an overall low build quality compared to other cars in this price range. Automatic lane keeping and switching, distance control etc. is something Audi, BMW and Mercedes has done for years. They have also kept up with infotainment, just look at Audis new cockpit.

    A Tesla is just a fast Prius without the range of an hybrid. It's a lifestyle luxury accessory for self styled ecologists. A huge lie.

    • I was going to say they are so boringly designed for something disruptive. But fuck it...

    • It's faster than anything else out there, looks great. What else do you what for a $100k toy? It's a superb creation, period.formed
    • ^ All of this. But it's no 'green' car.mekk
    • Even coal power plants are more efficient than the most efficient petrol cars. Also the lack of oil changes and servicing helps a lot too.slappy
