"Most remarkable for drivers used to internal combustion engines is the Tesla's torque, which makes initial acceleration a complete rush, in every sense of the word. Handling in curves is also just amazing, like a slot racer or something from a video game -- it barely banks at all in a hairpin 180, as if centrifugal force were removed along with engine emissions. ItŐs really nice that itŐs green-and-cleantech and all, but you could probably self-justify driving it even if it were fueled by asbestos, plutonium, and kittens."
