      So, 'perfection' in a launch ( a claim, not demonstrated) means the system is perfect? Clueless.

    Just one little tweak for me would be to put the dash in mph for track work would be great so we can see what you are achieving in the corners, I understand this is hard to remember in the heat in the moment with the adrenaline flowing!

What would be the purpose of a 640 hp, 2,300 kg SUV? If I want to go really fast, I don't buy an SUV, if I want to go off-road I don't buy an SUV, if I want space, the SUV must not be a coupe. So it's a car that wants to do everything. And it does everything badly.

    Great SUV but like most fast cars that are reviewed average person cant afford and totally pointless on uk roads. Hardly ever see reviews on standard cars that focus on the tech,comfort,Audio which is more practical than knowing car can do 0 to 60 in under 4 seconds. There will be time when the speed limiters will be a permanent on feature make cars like these even more pointless.
