Tesla

During my visit to copenhagen i spotted a beautiful Tesla roadster. For those of you who are not familiar with the brand it is a small company that manufactures high performance electric cars.













The AC induction motor and single speed gear box create instant torque from 0 rpm. Up to 295 lbs/ft of torque and 288 horsepower are produced as the car smoothly accelerates from 0 to 97 kph in 3.7 seconds.









The first production electric car that doesnt look like an ipod, the future of cars doesnt seem ass dark if more cars like this are made, tho biggest problem for me is the lack of sound.

  2. I hope that other car manufacturers start to follow suit, we can just ignore what fossil fuels are doing.

  7. I've always wanted to see one of those in action...you don't expect an electric car to have that kind of power under the hood.
