Last night a host of fancy society-types, car buffs and our good friends from AutoBlog got a unique chance to check out Tesla’s electric sports car. The zero-emissions whip (it’s so green it doesn’t even have a tailpipe) will get about 250 miles on a single charge, and reaches speeds of about 130-miles per hour, with a 0-60 time hovering around a pretty impressive 4-seconds. Stop driving it long enough to peek under the hood and you’ll find a 3-phase, 4-pole AC induction motor and a Power Electronics Module at the heart of this slick ride. Don’t run out to the car dealership yet, as these babies aren’t hitting the streets until mid-2007, and when they do, they’ll run you somewhere between $80,000 and $120,000. It sounds like a lot, we know, but just think of the looks you’ll get as you drive by at 124-mph, completely silently. Plus, it’ll be a great place to install your new Bluetooth-enabled head unit. Check the source link for a lot more pictures and even video from the big unveling.
