I found this http://www.teslarati.com/tesla-model-s-weight/ that supports your thought by putting it at 150 kg. > I can't find any details on what Siemens includes in their weight figure Well they don't have a transmission so that shouldn't be a concern. > is able to continuously output 260kw, the Tesla motor isn't even close to that. I've personally tried it a few times on the Autobahn and the Tesla limits the output to about 100kw (displayed) after less than a minute of full throttle. In did try to correct for this sort of thing by picking one of the lower kW ratings for the Tesla. I was not aware it was that drastic. If we account for this the Tesla is almost in Honda accord territory. That's rather disconcerting given Musk citing figures like the ones I outlined. https://youtu.be/PULkWGHeIQQ?t=41m30s |
