Tesla's electric sports car (review)
"What do you get for $90,000? The car can redline at 13,500rpm, reach about 130mph, and has 240 horsepower. It also has a range of 250 miles per charge,"

"and charge up in an ordinary electric socket--although it could take from five hours to a day,"

"The car only has two gears: First goes up to about 65 miles an hour, and second takes off after that. (There is no reverse gear. The engine is just run backwards "

" the U.K., where a carbon fiber shell--light but strong--is manufactured and the car is assembled."



,,,,, good signa for this nice looking roadster ,,,,,
