The Tesla Roadster's Touch-Screen Interface ¬

2008-08-01

CNET’s quick little video that demonstrates the Tesla Roadster’s touch screen interface. Especially noteworthy is the following tidbit:

It also lets people schedule the charging for late at night, when rates can be lower because demand on the power grid is lower[…]

Electric Vehicle Thoughts to Come ¬

2006-07-29

I’ve been interested in alternative energy vehicles, and especially electric vehicles, for a couple years now and had planned (and started… many times) to write a few articles regarding my findings, my opinions, and my plans. Unfortunately, I don’t seem to have completed any of said articles for one reason or another.

With the recent announcement of the Tesla Roadster, I find myself wanting one more and more with each passing day. Of course, I can’t and won’t be able to afford one, but I’ve had a number of different electric vehicle conversions in mind for a while now. I’ve looked at other alternative energy solutions, but haven’t found one that’s as clean and efficient as electric.

In order to get some of the ideas and conclusions I’ve come to regarding to electric vehicles out of my head and onto the web, I’m going to start posting shorter journal entries about them and my current automobile situation.

The Tesla Roadster ¬

2006-07-21

And I thought the AC Propulsion tZero was cool, check out Tesla Motors’ Roadster which was announced on the 19th:

Tesla Motors' Roadster

Features:

  • Electric Drive-train (AC)
  • Advanced Lithium-Ion battery pack.
  • 250 mile range
  • Optional hard top
  • Available in Black or White (among others)
  • And more...

This looks very much like the 1995 Toyota MR2 Electric Conversion I’ve considered in the past. If it turns out it really has a 250 mile range, I may have to try to raise a little capital!

Seriously, though, they’ve got some other good information on their site, even if it’s glossed over a little bit for marketing purposes. They have a blog as well.

Update: Somewhere in the $80-120k range when it’s first released (via Autoblog).
