I like what Tesla Motors have done with their sports coupe. <BR>With minimal weight in the 300 hp motor (I've read the motor weighs <BR>75#s...wow!!)and no real transmission, the car can be made light. I've <BR>also read that batteries are not complete losses when they lose cells. <BR>Only the bad cells get replaced which keeps repair cost down. I like <BR>that aspect of these cars a lot. And the 200-250 mile range on a charge <BR>also works just great with simple overnight recharge cycles.<BR><BR>The price tag is the only thing that doesn't compute. Hopefully that <BR>will come down as more people buy into this "new" technology. IF I won <BR>the lottery I would buy one or three.<BR><BR>These are not your every day golf cart types, by any stretch.<BR><BR>Every one should know that Nikola Tesla invented the Tesla coil (duh!! <BR>make spark ignition practical), but did you know he invented the <BR>electric motor? (Among many other things that have revolutionized every <BR>day life).
