Hah Hah! With the Hellcat's
Hah Hah! With the Hellcat's rating of mpg for city/hwy of 13/21 and a fuel tank of 18.5 gallons, the Tesla can actually drive much farther without needing a recharge...And if any Hellcat owner wants to actually have fun driving their car, it will probably get less than 170 miles before needing to find a gas station again.
By the way, 99%+ of Hellcat owners will never go above 155 mph, much less go 204 mph, and what will you do after 5 years or 100,000 miles of hard driving, not to mention the $30,000 of gas you used or the roughly 500+ gas station visits? Hardly a comparison to Tesla's 8 year unlimited mile warranty and topping the battery every night at your home for just a few dollars.
The author is right in that these two cars should not be compared, Tesla literally blows the Hellcat off the line. Let's be honest, at the stoplight very very few people actually care that the Hellcat can eventually pass the Tesla way down the road, BUT every one cares about what happens when the light turns green. So stop kidding yourselves, because deep down, you know that to be true. Save your money and buy the Tesla P85D instead.
