Sure, but this isn't a Tesla...

If you're going to drive this slowly you might as well buy a Tesla

Model S Plaid has faster acceleration than Luce and they have similar top speed.

Reportedly, the Luce has more nimble handling.

People don’t get sports cars just for the acceleration.

The Luxe doesn’t look sporty at all, even if it has excellent handling.

Good thing neither are sports cars.

The casio watch is more accurate than a mechanical watch, it doesn't mean I should like it more

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...

Tesla Model S is discontinued.

Whatever its merits, there wasn’t a market for it.

Which suggests that a similar but worse product shouldn't sell either?

Just pointing out that, technically, if you're gonna drive slow, the Ferrari is the appropriate choice over the Tesla.
