I still think "fastest 50-70" is a tad overstated when they are handicapping 150MPH+ ICE supercars in "top gear". If you were willing to drive a McLaren F1 in 3rd or 4th gear on the freeway I don't think the Roadster would stand a chance. But yes, the noise and fuel consumption of an ICE supercar would leave some highway cruisers at a disadvantage stuck in 5th or 6th gear.
The Roadster has enough advantages as it is without having to resort to overstating.
Ha, ha did you express that at the blog or give a PM to Elon? You just might want to do that before that keeps getting quoted. "Fastest top gear 50-70" is more appropriate. It will just be embarrassing if someone corrects him or something after it gets spread too much.
As far as criticisms, my biggest concern is that I don’t think our seats are comfortable enough. I’ve asked the engineering team to work on an upgrade right away. It will be provided at no cost to any customers that receive the existing seat design before the upgrade is ready. The back curvature and side support need to be improved. We are also looking at offering custom tailored seats, matched to each customer’s height, width, leg length, etc., as an optional upgrade.
Elon:
For all my gripes with Elon, this does impress me. [...] Now with 20 plus prototypes on the road with hundreds of thousands of miles on them driven by a range of experts, Elon drives casually the car for a month and has the vision to not only see that the seats need work but that they need to be changed before the cars go into production and that he will not sell a car with them.
He is an amazing man with a focus for doing thing right and backing it with his wallet. I may not like his decisions re the company but love the decisions that affect the car.
