I can feel all the subtle feedback, and the modern filter filters it better. But I didn’t feel like the car was going to fall apart.

Why not?
- DrBazza 3y agoI've read in reviews about Teslas that they're actually really poorly built, versus historic car companies and you get the kind of creaking and rattling in 2024, you used to get in cars from the 80s. >> Does it hold its speed indefinitely at 100mph like an ICE car? > Why not? Does it? My ICE car is probably going to get replaced, and on the occasion that I'm driving through Germany, I'm doing 100+mph on the autobahns, and I can't recall seeing many EVs keeping pace with me. I wondered whether electric motors have some sort of limiter to preserve battery life or something.
- dagw 3y agoMost (all?) electric cars can easily and comfortably do 100+ mph no problem. It's just that range really drops off after ~60-70 mph so most people don't bother if they want to avoid stopping to charge several times on a longer trip. If you want to drive really far, really fast, then EVs are not for you. At 100+ mph you're stopping to recharge at least every 1.5-2 hours.
