It may just be me, but somehow I feel the Tesla Model S would fit my needs better than the Leaf.
I'll go to Germany this weekend; 1200 km in 3 days. The Tesla could do that easily, just needs to be charged overnight. The Leaf; no chance whatsoever.
But I'll take the hybrid. Unlike the Tesla it could do 400 km in Germany in one go at 180 km/h. But only if I can control the urge to hypermile

For confirmation go to people just like you.
For education go to people unlike yourself.
