Munna1 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Did a search and couldnt find anything so I dont think this is a repost electric car Very interesting range of 400km at a cost of 1cent per mile. Battery lasts 100,000 miles. I recon one of these would be great but my only question is how much does a new battery cost? ________________________________________________ 100% Torque, 100% of the Time The Tesla Roadster delivers full availability of performance every moment you are in the car, even while at a stoplight. Its peak torque begins at zero rpm and stays powerful beyond 13,000 rpm. This is the precise opposite of what you experience with a gasoline engine, which has very little torque at a low rpm and only reaches peak torque in a narrow rpm range. This forces you to make frequent gear changes to maintain optimal torque. With the Tesla Roadster, you get great acceleration and the highest energy efficiency at the same time. All while requiring no special driving skills to enjoy it. This makes the Tesla Roadster six times as efficient as the best sports cars while producing one-tenth of the pollution. _________________________________________________ cheers Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/135926-telsa-electric-sports-car/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Say i was looking at my G-Tech performance meter the other day, and noticed that it's made by Tesla also. Is this the same company?

Savage Bliss Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Yeah looks the goods. But as said, does it sound the goods. Because c'mon, lets face it, part of the reason we buy performance cars is for the sound!

JaFF Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 The car looks sweet.

Big Rizza Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I'd say it'd sound like a battery powered toy remote control car, and probably about as loud too.

mad082 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I'd say it'd sound like a battery powered toy remote control car, and probably about as loud too. that could be cool. but as i say in every electric car thread, they need to make the battery life longer. otherwise you would either carry spare batteries, or make a long trip take a few days.
