The car goes from 0 to 60 mph in just under four seconds and tops out
at 125 mph. It goes 225 miles on one charge and can be fully
recharged in 3½ hours, which Tesla officials say should allow most
people to drive it to work and back and recharge it at night like a
cell phone.
Isn't that insane? To save gas we need cars with a top speed of 60 mph and
only capable of modest acceleration.
What would be insane is to spend 109,000 dollars on an electric car
when for that much money you could have driven a gas powered vehicle
for years. For the same costs I figure about 35 years.
