Puff piece? Did you read the whole article through a neutral lens? Here are some excerpts you might have missed:
> At slow speeds the Model S feels disappointingly like a hefty, battery-laden electric car. With a light foot on the accelerator, it shuffles from stop sign to stop sign with all the eagerness of a fat man asked to change seats on an airliner. You can almost hear it sigh.
> Fortunately, for me, the brake pedal works just as well as the accelerator nicely preventing me from rear-ending cars ahead after each startling burst of speed.
Even the quote that you took out of context was a begrudging acknowledgement that it was believable that the car would handle well given the low center of gravity, but that he'd have to wait to say for sure.
