Except you need a whole lot fo heavy battery. The model S is not a light car.
You can make anything sound amazing is you ignore every drawback.

- ilovecars2 9y agoI’m not sure I’d agree. The Model S is quite prone to understeer, and it’s not just slight understeer but real unrelenting understeer. I’m not sure how though because there isn’t a lot of weight over the front axle that would cause the nose to push wide so perhaps it’s because of how the suspension is setup. This is quite unlike the BMW M5, for example.
