The Tesla Model S is due to be to be rolling off the line in 2011 thanks to a $464 million dollar loan from the The Department of Energy. This Tesla will do 0-60 mph in 5.6 seconds and has a top speed of 120 mph. The powertrain features a liquid-cooled, floor-mounted battery pack and a single-speed gearbox, delivering effortless acceleration, responsive handling and quiet simplicity — no fancy clutchwork or gear-shifting required. Model S costs about $4 to fully charge – a bargain even when gasoline is $1 per gallon. You can listen to Pandora Radio or consult Google Maps on the 17 inch touchscreen with in-car 3G connectivity.
