Be interesting to see how they would handle Snow .With the weight of the battery set low under the floor pan they might be great at it or crap ,we wait and see .140 grand for the Tesla S parked up for the winter would piss you off .

If you can afford that car,not driving it in conditions you describe would be the least of their worries!!

Seen a red one last week costs ten grand more than the black one .If you can afford ten grand for paint you are not driving a taxi for your crust .

Met Eireann has forecasted snow and storms this winter as temperatures are set to plummet over the next few weeks.

But don’t start salting your driveway just yet because the national forecaster is unsure of when the country will see snow.


Deirdre Lowe, a Met Eireann forecaster said: “There’s likely going to be snow at some point in the Northwest, but we don’t know when.”

Yid have to wonder about that last summer we had..... Highest temperatures worldwide in history.....
...in the timescale it's happenin.......
Ide say that we are already fuked an they not saying...... But wen ya think that there's an infinite ammount of planets out there wit life on dem.. It doesn't matter a fuk to the real world.... In fact the ammount is so infinite that it is quite possible that a bloke just like me called octavia 1 is typing this same shite in some far off galaxy....
....
Now as regards snow an electric cars......
The propulsion method is irrelevant.....
The weight distribution is critical......
This small lecture will explain it.....
https://youtu.be/MYJMgIScxaQ
But I'll explain it in layman's terms......
If ya have rear wheel drive an yur slippin......
Get yur mot to sit in the back seat....
If yu have front whee drive an yu slippin..... Get yur mot to sit in the front seat.....
