Tesla Roadster |
The Tesla Roadster has been available for some time, but its price puts it in the stratosphere! So we were very appreciative when our EV friend Bob let us take a private look recently (see slideshow). The model we saw was the "Sport" version of the roadster which features even higher performance (and price) than the standard model, and shows its carbon-fiber structure prominently. The cockpit is low and tight, but any comfort issues there are erased by the acceleration you can get when you hit the accelerator!
In the near future, they will be introducing the model "S" which will be an upscale 4-door sedan with a range option of up to 300 miles.
