Our answer:

Hi Diarmuid,

I don’t really understand the question as you’ve phrased it, but when it comes to Teslas there’s both good and bad to report. On the good front are the amazing electric powertrains, which really are silent and incredibly powerful, and with some decent, useable range. Then there’s the impressive, massive, central touchscreen that does rather re-set your expectations of what a car interior should be like, and the fact that, simply by driving one, you’re really at the cutting edge of the motoring zeitgeist.

On the bad front, the Model S saloon is only quite good to drive, the Model X SUV is actually quite disappointing to drive and both cars have, in our experience, suffered from some build quality glitches. And both are seriously expensive.
