Well, let's play that game. According to numerous sources, Tesla's batteries displace between 400 to 1100 liters. It's a hell of a lot more than a 4.4 L V8 or a 3.0 L I6 that BMW uses. So I guess there is no replacement for displacement. At 1100 L, I would expect the Tesla to move faster. So let's give some credit where credit is due to the ICE power.
