620 mile range seems like a lot of battery weight for a performance car. Is that weight of batteries necessary to supply enough current and to reduce heat load on individual cells? Or would there be a smaller battery pack that would be even more performant due to reduced weight?
If that top speed ("Over 250 mph") is accurate wouldn't it put it in contention for "Production car speed record" per: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Production_car_speed_record Additionally I hope nobody ever tries to "red line" it on a public road for their own and everyone else's safety. 4.2 sec 0-100 and a 250+ mph max is a very temping but potentially deadly combination.

The convertible roof STORES IN THE TRUNK? That is just an absurdly non-luxurious design decision.
Sports cars tend to be neither luxurious, comfortable nor practical. One of the many reasons that I never understood why one would buy something like a new Lamborghini Huracan, when you for a similar price could be looking at a Rolls Royce Phantom.

- Valet mode - Set a max speed with a pin - Comfort vs. Sport which changes the driving dynamics drastically

It's probably not the first 6 figure supercar with dangerous specs.
I am a bit confused about what is novel about this. It is not the unveiling, so it must be the reservation possibility but I might be wrong.
So they unveiled it 2017, and now they are selling it? So now you can reserve. Hmm, maybe I missed it but when do you then actually get one? Is it the same thing like their other cars (i.e. when it is done)? I am a bit confused about what is novel about this.

Many of the cars on that list are 7 figure (or are in 2019 dollars). So we're likely going to see more of these types of cars on the road just given to its relatively lower price.
