Consumer Reports Won't Recommend Tesla's Model 3

Long emergency stopping distances, difficult-to-use controls and a harsh ride stopped Tesla's Model 3 electric car from getting a recommended buy rating from Consumer Reports.

The reviewers liked the car's exhilarating acceleration and handling. But testers were troubled by its 152-foot average stopping distance from 60 miles per hour in emergency braking tests. 

The magazine said the distance was worse than any modern car it has tested.

Tesla isn't happy about the report and has responded. Read more about it at Jalopnik.
