I love the way it looks and for me it would be a true one car solution (I want more off-road capability than the Gravity offers.) However, the charging performance is too slow and I doubt the R2 will be any better. The Gravity works for 95% of my driving and I'll just keep my beater Lexus GX for...

The 600lb maximum tongue weight is measured at the hitch ball. Accessory weight is much farther out and puts a huge lever on the tiny attachment point that this style of hitch has. Other vehicles with the same style hitch also have low max accessory weight (for example the Model X has a dongle...

Sort of ridiculous but expected. This is the really ridiculous part: So, two bikes on a vehicle that can hold 7 people...

So, when are we getting dragy 0-60 numbers for the DE? Finally saw a Gravity here in SD! Unfortunately at night and only the back. I don't think there's one in the showroom.

Also Tesla is definitely homelink too.

The R1S and Model X both have Homelink. It really sounds like you're using Homelink.

I would hope that 6 months after the first delivery that one could walk up to the car and open the door and start it without touching the key. Is this really not the case? My Model 3 initially had issues but that's because Tesla is doing some sort of hack to use bluetooth in a way it wasn't...

7:42? That's slower than the RSQ8. Lucid tested the Sapphire at the 'ring too but all I can find is that they were aiming sub 7:35. I wonder if the Sapphire has thermal issues. Supposedly that is much improved on the Gravity.

Ioniq used P Zero Corsa tires. Plaid, taller gearing and more power. Isn't the 7:25 with the track pack (sport cup 2 r?)

Civic Type R had Sport Cup 2 tires. We also don't know how much Gravity horsepower drops off at speed. Love this armchair racing. haha.

Yeah, no way it beats the RSQ8 then. Horsepower probably drops off significantly at high speed too. The Nurburgring is a silly measure of street car performance though.

Aren't those the Hankook Ions?

What's the Gravity top speed? I feel like it would be very hard to beat an ICE vehicle in an EV without a multi-speed transmission. Looks like RSQ8 hits 302kmh on the Nurburgring.

The staggered diameter may also make it impossible to carry a spare. Though the diameter between front and rear isn't that different so maybe the car won't freak out. I've seen Teslas on the side of the road with flat tires over a hundred miles from the nearest service center. Doesn't look like fun.

I switch between summer and winter wheels so rotation is free.

Diameter not width? In a car with staggered tire width you can run a square setup (often you'll actually gain performance doing this if you run front tires as wide as the rears.) No worries.

Is there another SUV with staggered tire diameter? The only cars I'm aware of with staggered tire diameter have a rear weight bias (like Porsche 911).

The car was designed to use those tire diameters (meaning the suspension, anti lock braking system, and stability control system). They could have designed a car with a square setup and achieved the same performance but they didn't do that. I would wait for the mid size model if you want a...

The front tires are 30.4" diameter and the rear tires are 31" diameter. As far as I know Tesla does not offer different outside diameter tires on any of their vehicles.

1 second faster on the Nurburgring. I doubt there will be a non-staggered option since the outside diameter of the front and rear are different. The car would not have the correct ride height and the wheel well openings would not match the tire sizes.
