Tesla Model S (front view)
ok, third crack at this, tumblr keeps eating this post for whatever reason.
The Model S looks pretty slick from the front, very futuristic. Certainly a sedan that will turn heads (well, maybe that’s mostly because people won’t hear it coming and soil themselves when they nearly walk into this lovely vehicle).
The real story here is the removable battery and fast-charge (45 minutes) capability. Tesla has been pretty adamant that fast-charge tech is immature and not yet feasible. I wonder if they’ve really had a breakthrough or if they’re pushing in all their chips in a last bid to stay solvent.
Either way, they should be applauded for bringing real EV’s to market in the insanely competitive automotive industry and quieting the critics who called them vaporware dealers. As GM and the rest of the U.S. dinosaurs come crashing to earth, it’s wonderful to see real innovation in the automotive space, particularly when it also addresses foreign policy and climate change through our dependence on foreign oil.
