I really like the Model S, and what it represents - but it isn't a particularly good fit for the US. Distances here are too long and things are too far apart. It's a great car for Europe, but not here, at least not until the range is increased.

As was said, the Model S makes a good city car, but who wants a 4k lb. luxobarge for a city car? A very narrow niche of people, I'm guessing.
The Model S can get from 160-200 miles range. How is that relegated to city only? It's perfectly suited for the US and NOT Europe like the Leaf, Focus, etc are.
