Best Car?

Or best electric car?

You decide.

An excerpt from a review - 

Elon Musk has once again given the world a car that is among the most thrilling things on the road, not just for what it delivers, but for what it promises.

Another one - 

(NEWSER) – For those who think electric cars will never outperform gas ones, Consumer Reports has something to say. In its latest test drive of Tesla's new Model S P85D, the writers said the all-wheel-drive sedan "performed better in our tests than any other car ever has, breaking the Consumer Reports Ratings system." It so wowed the raters that they called it "brutally" and "explosively" quick, saying Tesla had created an "insane" drive mode whose 1.02 G's of force on acceleration (it goes from zero to 60mph in 3.5 seconds) is like jumping off a building, not to mention "frighteningly eerie in its silent velocity" sans the traditional engine roar. Basically, the 80-year-old publication's auto editor Mark Rechtin tells Business Insider, it "defies the laws of physics." And it was built by a startup in, wait for it, the United States of America.
