i7 would be more comparable to the Tesla

Yah,I know...but they don't give overnight test drives on them.I've driven Mercedes/BMW for some time now...always diesels.My current diesel (BMW) has a highway range of about 750 miles (53 actual MPG,14.5 gallon tank) and can be "recharged" in about 4 minutes at any one of 30,000 "recharging" stations nationwide.

Most people dont drive very far and don’t care about range. Everyone I know starts groaning if they have to even sit in a car for 100 miles. Much less drive it.

I do 1000-2000 mile trips every few months so obviously an electric is not for me and I didn’t even bother testing.

But for short trips I hear they are an absolute blast
