The Tesla Motors Roadster has been shipped.
Never heard of it?
It’s a new electric car, but not like many you have heard of… here’s what’s awesome about it:
- This car is gorgeous!
Yeah, very nice looking
- 0 - 60 in 3.9s
Very impressive for an electric - 13,000 RPM redline
Also impressive - 256mpg equivalent
“Equivalent” because, well… it umm, doesn’t use gas… - 220 miles per charge
Decent range, not the best, but it will get most people where they are going.
Down-side?
Well, it costs $109,000 which is a bit out of my, and most people’s, price range.
Since it is fully electric, it means that it has a large amount of computer and software driven components which means that something could go wrong, but hopefully it won’t…
