Going on the record with my near term Performance Predictions and Prognostications

[Laserbrain]

I just wish they would stick to one way of measuring vehicles, preferably WITHOUT a 1 foot rollout. If they are quoting 0-60 times, it should really start at 0 and not one foot into a launch. This makes comparisons more meaningful especially when we are talking about low 1/10ths of a second. If they previously gave out figures without a rollout and now they are, it muddies the waters somewhat.

0-60 mph should be measured in a scientific correct way.

Using a bizarre dragstrip standard, of which even in the US the majority of the people probably has never heard of, for a normal street car is just lame.

Especially when this bizarre standard (of which 99% of Tesla's worldwide customer base is probably completely unaware of) is used exclusively for the PxxD models but not for the other models.

Honi soit qui mal y pense.

If we're going to be "scientific" then we have to add any time to prepare launch control in any other car to it's 0-60.

All of a sudden we find everything from a Bugatti to an M3 has a terrible 0-60...
