A big challenge with electric vehicles has always been range. Tesla has dealt with this by employing bigger and better batteries than ever been seen before in electric vehicles. Even with the smallest batteries in its most basic trim, Tesla claims a 300-plus-mile range for the Model S, easily besting the range of any of its potential competitors. Beyond the drivetrain though, the Model S is a competent luxury car with impressive performance. There is plenty of room both inside the passenger cabin and in the trunk, making the Model S spacious and practical. Model S ownership begins under $80,000, making it comparable to many large European luxury sedans, and while the Model S matches most of these sedans in terms of luxury and performance, it also offers environmental benefits and cutting-edge technology unmatched in any category.
