    For as shitty as tesla as a whole are:

    The REALLY old OG teslas (maybe even pre-“Roadster”?) were genuinely insane to drive. Their acceleration was through the roof (since you pretty much have near instantaneous acceleration with electric motors… sort of) and there was little software to balance that out. My uncle had one and it was frigging amazing.

    But after the first couple versions (and probably fatalities?) that got toned the hell down and the goal became to mimic driving an ICE. So now you just have a shitty quality car that drives like any other one. Sure it is quieter (unless your frame makes noise at speed) and has slightly higher acceleration, but it is “not that different” by design.
