The bog standard Model 3 is around 240bhp and 0-60mph of 5.4, rapid enough, if you go for the dual motor you're talking super car acceleration. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I could get from mine to Cornwall with one stop of around 15 mins in a Tesla. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When have you ever heard of people quoting a diesel or petrol cars range, they never have, it's all about mpg, efficiency, it's the same with electric cars. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Depends, at home charging it will take hours, but at a rapid charging point you fast charge in around 15-20 mins. Unless I'm driving half way around the world a 500 mile tank ain't really needed.
