Deep pocket buyers will be going for Tesla Model S or Porsche Mission E primarily because of the mix of technology and instant power on hand.
I don't think there's any way of avoiding the fact that the top Tesla option and the Mission E will be cross-shopped by those who can afford these cars.
Which means the Mission E is going to have to blow the doors off Tesla P100D or whatever, if its going to cost 4x's as much.
