I didn't realise the big exec car sales were being hit that bad by the Model S.
Lets hope that kicks them into action to make some decent pure electric versions of their big models. None of this...

Tesla won't say but they are almost definitely using Borg Warner's eGearDrive transmission. On some forum someone suggested they are cast gears, but that could be hearsay.

I will wait to see how well the new two-motor drive train lasts.
