They claimed they couldn't get the P85D to go 0-60 faster than 3.5 sec. I listened to one of their podcasts where they talked about it. They just couldn't. Wonder why. Wonder if it's the track. They said it's still amazingly fast, but not as fast as they claim on their web site. With Elon so into consumer reports, I'm surprised that he hasn't sent an engineer there to help them debug that.
To what? It did get a perfect score on their scale. The title doesn't say it's a perfect car.The article made it clear that this score is not "perfect"-- it's only the highest rating defined on their scale. CR cited lackluster interior and average reliability as areas where it is not perfect. I suggest changing the title of the thread.
What is a "1-foot rollout"? (I know nothing about such things.)3.1 is done with a 1-foot rollout. 3.5 sounds right without it.

Apparently getting a score of 103 means 100 isn't perfect. So what does 103 really mean?

I hate to be a sourpuss, but... exactly. I read a summary of the article and there were even some minor niggles about the interior materials and/or fit and finish. How can there be niggles and still get a better than perfect score? To be honest, I have never put a lot of faith in CR's auto reporting. I remember, back in the '80s how they would give identical "badge engineered" cars from one manufacturer totally different scores (Dodge 600 / Plymouth Caravelle for instance). The only difference between these cars was whether the worker slapped a Dodge or a Plymouth badge on the back as it came off the line. How on earth could CR rate them differently? Stuff like that.

Normal cars don't get supercar acceleration speeds with 5+2 seating and efficiency that rivals the best hybrids. That's how it exceeded 100--mutually exclusive categories aren't so mutually exclusive with an EV. They just don't have a rating system designed specifically for EVs, which are inherently superior to ICEs by the nature of the technology.
