So reports Bloomberg:

Tesla Motors Inc.’s electric Model S, Motor Trend’s 2013 “Car of the Year,” received the highest rating from Consumer Reports in an evaluation of the luxury sedan that led first-quarter North American plug-in car sales.

The Model S from Palo Alto, California-based Tesla scored 99 out of 100 points, the non-profit magazine said in an e- mailed statement. The $89,650 car bought by Consumer Reports “performed better, or just as well overall” as any vehicle it’s ever tested, the Yonkers, New York-based magazine said.


Still, CR isn't recommending a purchase due to the lack of reliability data. Still, hard to imagine a new car ever getting a more positive review.

Tempting . . . .
