Tesla Motors

By Mike | January 5, 2007

Tesla Roadster

Lightweight, all-electric, 0-60mph in about 4 seconds, and a 250 mile range. It was designed by the British car company Lotus, and the styling cues are evident when you look at a Lotus Elise. The great thing about electric motors is that they produce maximum torque (thus, maximum acceleration) at 0 rpm, meaning there is nearly no lag for the engine to spin up to its power band. This is my kind of car.

*Side Note: Apparently YouTube embeds break my blog. I’ll look into the problem, but meanwhile, you can see the original post here.
