CONSUMER REPORTS: The Tesla Model S Is The Best Car We've Ever Seen

The
The independent, consumer-oriented magazine called the Model S "truly a remarkable car," despite its high price tag (it tested the version with the largest available battery, for $89,650) and the range limitations that make it impractical for spontaneous long trips.

In its review, Consumer Reports wrote that the Tesla S became the top-scoring car "even though it's an electric car. In fact, it does so because it is electric."
According to Jalopnik editor Matt Hardigree, the car's score was originally a 110 out of 100. He wrote:
I spoke with CR's Jake Fisher who explained to me that the car actually scored 110 out of a 100-point scale, but that because of the limitations still inherent in owning an electric car (range, access to charging) they regularly subtract about 10% from a car's score.
The Model S review praised the car's balance, handling, comfort, roominess, and control system, while noting visibility, early technical problems, and high price as demerits.
Here's part of the review's summary:
The Tesla Model S takes everything you know about cars and stands it on its head. It's a very agile, super-quick electric luxury sedan (with a hatchback!) that seats seven and gets the equivalent of 84 mpg. Got your attention yet?
The magazine has not always been so kind to EVs. In January, it slammed the Mitsubishi i-MiEV, calling it "a glorified golf cart of limited use."
