The NY Times 2, Wired and Slashdot are a-buzz. The new Tesla Motors all-electric sports car has been unveiled and it’s hott. You might recognize some styling from the UK car-maker Lotus (the front turn signal was the giveaway), but don’t be mistaken, this baby’s all-electric and powered by some amazing engineering by some buddies of mine who’ve got it tight. It’s more than twice as efficient as the best hybrid-electric (internal combustion engine-based) vehicle on the road today and it’s an improvement on urban air quality. Some say it’s just diverting oil to coal (for electricity), but at least there’s carbon sequestration options there… and in the future, there’s sure to be more affordable renewable electricity on the way... See the new Tesla roadster for yourself!
