The top end Model S has a 85kWh battery pack and can get 265 miles on that charge according to the 5-point standard for MPGe set by the EPA. That's equivalent to just under 3 gallons of gas using the GGE conversion mechanism.
That's an amazing efficiency win.
So far, the biggest downside is the extended charge time. To fully recharge the car using the fastest charger, it's about 4-5 hours.
