I have a P85D and it's real advantage is zero to 30. With 684 ft-lbs of torque at zero RPM and 4 wheel drive it's amazing off the line. No wheel spin even with the 19 inch all season tires rather than the 21 inch summer tires. It actually made me a bit dizzy the first several times I launched it from standing start. Zero to 60 is quicker than both my Cobra and Z06 Corvette. The Corvette is probably quicker from 30 on up if it's in the right gear. The Tesla is always in the right gear since it only has one. Corvette has the same quarter mile time as the P85D but runs about 10 MPH faster.
