Braking is exacerbated by mass -- over 5000lbs.
FWIW in a Tesla, the lack of feedback to sense speed goes away soon enough and you develop more seat-of-the-pants (for grip and handling) and more...

the car will absorb 17.x kW if the supply can keep up 72A at 250V (pretty common to see "220" sag to about 248 and still deliver 17kW ... at 229V, the HPWC is detecting other loads on the circuit ......

You can tow a Jimglo or Aerovault with anything bigger than a Prius. I've towed usually with a GL350 (diesel) or GL550 (gas) and it's easy to trot along at 75-80.
