Tesla Motors is currently in production on the 2008 model of their instant classic, all electric, sports car, the Tesla Roadster. If you feel like saving the environment in an energy efficient car that’s also sexy as all get out, the Tesla Roadster is the car for you. Factor in the added bonus of never having to stand at a gas pump again and it’s clear why this new American auto company has sold out its production orders of the Roadster.
But how does it work? You simply plug the car into the wall, charge it up and you’re off and running. The Roadster goes from 0 to 60 in 3.9 seconds off the line. It has a range of 220 miles per charge. The equivalent energy efficiency of the vehicle to a gas powered car is 135 miles per gallon and the cost of running the Roadster is less than 2 cents per mile.
