Has anyone sat in a modern Audi, new Q7/TT for example. They've moved the interior quality and ergonomic game up another few notches, that, combined with the battery tech (that already exists within Audi) will be the way to go IMHO.
I really don't get the Tesla hype. 
P.S There's a video online somewhere (search it) of an RS 7 murdering that new P85D in a drag race.  |
I was very sceptical too until I drove one.
You can't really compare the Tesla to a high performance Audi; they're chalk and cheese. They're not better, just different ... shockingly different, in good way.
You really do have to experience one for yourself though, they really are a game-changer. I guarantee that whatever your expectations of the experience are, the Tesla will exceed them.
