| I will say, Teslas usually have too much torque because I feel very nauseous in them as a passenger. Having more fine grained control over the torque profile might be nice |

| The reason you feel nauseous as a passenger has nothing to do with the maximum torque output of the vehicle, but because one-pedal driving mode amplifies bad driving habits by people who never learned how to use the accelerator pedal on a car properly. Way too many people stomp, release, and repeat. This works in Mario Kart when the A-button input is a boolean value but in a Tesla with one-pedal driving turned on you end up repeatedly accelerating or decelerating and never go a constant speed. |

| Sure, but this isn't a Tesla... If you're going to drive this slowly you might as well buy a Tesla |

| ▲ | amarant 3 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | Tesla model S accelerates faster and has a higher top speed, and also more range on a smaller battery.... For a absolutely tiny fraction of the price! It also looks better than this Nissan leaf knock-off! I'm not the target market, this thing costs more than my house! But I do think the specs are... Disappointing... | | |

| ▲ | amarant an hour ago | parent | next [-] | | Just pointing out that, technically, if you're gonna drive slow, the Ferrari is the appropriate choice over the Tesla. | |
| ▲ | lmm 2 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | Which suggests that a similar but worse product shouldn't sell either? | | |
| ▲ | pavlov 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | The brand name counts for a lot in this market. Lamborghini Urus sells well even though it’s inferior on every metric to cars a fraction of its price. Tesla lost its premium brand cachet and consequently the Model S/X market. Ferrari presumably has some data that there are buyers for a $500k scifi sports car with their logo on it. |
