Looks like it will be arriving 2 years after Model X, if ever. Though I love the idea of two motors in the back = active electric torque vectoring FTW. Cornering in this thing will be out of this world.

120k?   If they had half a brain they would aggressively undercut Tesla like the Japanese did in the 70s and 80s did to the big three and capture the market.

Audi, VW (because there is going to be a VW version of this) and Mercedes all have their targets on Tesla. (Nobody wants to end up like Kodak). 

Bingo.
Friend works for Audi, and was shocked we bought a Tesla to compliment out Smart ED.  Just could not believe we went 100% electric.  Told him about the Toronto -> New York road trip, and the 5000 km we put on the car in just two months...  The old world seems too comfortable from where the legacy premium automakers sit.
