Stealing that. A big pet peeve of mine is the hijacking of the term “OCD” by almost everyone so they can use it incorrectly, and then people with an actual panic disorder aren’t taken seriously.
I’m not sure where you’re getting the poor handling or the high CoG from. It has a low CoG because the battery components are installed near the bottom and they make up a large percentage of the car’s weight.
It also handles quite well, mostly thanks to the low CoG. It feels firmly planted and is very nimble in turns. Sure, it’s not an e46 M3 but it would be crazy to expect that.
It also sounds to me like you don’t actually even know what an SUV is. I know it seems crazy but there’s no requirement to comment if you’re uninformed on a subject and aren’t capable of adding value to the discussion.
Same weight as a tesla plaid with none of the proformance? Sounds like a all that is mostly dead SUV weight.
Also the lightning is 20000 lbs lighter than the Tesla Semi! CHECKMATE!

Maybe I just hate SUVs
This is the way.
A gallon of gas contains 33.7 kWh of energy.
ICE sedans get on average 31.7 miles per gallon, which is 0.94 miles per kWh.
Most electric SUVs get 3-4 miles per kWh depending on temperature and driving conditions. Electric sedans get 4-5 miles per kWh.
You may generally dislike SUVs, but those Electric SUVs are still a far cry better than the gas sedans you’re giving a pass.
Your mixing of miles and metric is triggering my FauxCD.

Should I give it in terms of inverse Newtons, squared seconds per kilogram-meter? That would be a proper SI reduction for ya :P
♥️
ikr I’m angry but also happy they’re at least trying unlike most Americans
Don’t give me that much credit I’m just reading the units of measure the car gives me
Americans have actually been using metric for a long time. Well, their drug dealers have anyway.
Yes but they’re still as butt ugly as the rest of the SUVs they’re making. And they don’t handle well. And they’re fucking huge.
I have one of these and it is not an SUV at all. It is a hatchback that is a foot shorter than a Honda accord and only 7” taller.
So it’s a hatchback with a high CoG and poor handling?
Sounds like an SUV to me.

Looks like kinda like an suv, at least. Why did they make it so tall? what’s with the SUV-like shape?
lighter than a pickup truck? impressive engineering that must have taken

2218 kg vs 1777 kg (Tesla 3) is a 25% increase, in addition to losses from higher air resistance from the fat body
I saw a YouTube video just yesterday claiming this was a M3 killer. lmao

model 3 performance is faster than mach e with longer range, costs less, weighs the same as base model 3. I fail to see your point

Why do you have to be like that? Delete this dude.
