3. You didn’t do your research…

Mercedes SLS AMG has a 60 kWh battery pack. The Nissan Leaf has a 24kWh battery pack.

The Tesla S with their 60kWh battery pack gets 230 miles at 55 MPH.

The Mercedes – 150 miles and 60 kWh battery = 2.5 miles per kWh.

The Nissan Leaf – 75 miles and 24 kWh batters = 3.1 miles per kWh.

Only one of 2 answers can possibly be true…….
1. mercedes is lying
2. general motors along with nissan, toyota, and ford, is sandbagging, or are totally incompetent
Personally, I’m going with answer #2
