I guess that's great deal due to 1 speed gearbox, apparently they wanted to make Model S 2 speed first but backed out of it. There is no confirmed reason for it but it's widely assumed that they could not get a gearbox that would survive instant torque for continuous use in the required size/weight envelope.
