Message	as far as the power and range. I can believe the car is capable of 700HP even though with an electric motor that would be an unbelievable amount of torque, and I can believe 186 mile range, but not at the same time. It's kind of like saying this V16 quad turbo veyron is 1000hp, and it can travel 250 miles on a tank. Well it probably can if you nurse it along at 55mph and take a half mile to accelerate to that speed, but using the full potential of that motor will drain 16gal of fuel in like 12 minutes and I'd imagine putting that EV on a race track where it could put down all 700hp would dry up the batteries in a matter of minutes.
