I wonder whether it has something to do with the way you would drive a Tesla vs how you would drive a Volt/Leaf.
I'm not saying that the Tesla is necessarily better performing, just that two different types of people are the likely owners.
NB: Just pondering.
- mbreese 13y agoThis might just be the case, simply due to the extended range of the Tesla. Since you can commute farther, you're more likely to be on a highway in a Tesla. I haven't seen many Leafs on 101/280, but I see Teslas all the time. Since these are high-energy impacts, you'd have to be traveling at highway speed to have a damaging impact. It might be more interesting to compare how a similar car style would behave (think high performance sedans).
