[...] これだけのキャッシュ注入にも関わらず、Teslaは本当に金欠近い危険な状況に陥っていた。だから本当に赤信号なのだ。車の製造は安くない。しかもこれは安い車ではない。Teslaは今も社員315人を抱えているし、カリフォルニア州サンホゼ市には現在、自動車製造工場も建設中だ。 [...]

tsk tsk.. I was born in another country, came here like many of you with the promise of America. Sometimes we forget what IS possible and how things can change DRAMATICALLY in a short period of time. This mentality of pessimism is such a drag.. mentality of hate such a drag.. Dude.. I raise your doom and gloom prediction with one that is much more likely.. Oil companies wont like gas prices going down TOO much (”there’s always Nigeria…” – look it up) and this price is JUST the kick in the pants we need to remind us of what we can do.. It’s the next “big thing” that will propel America once again.. GO ARNOLD, GO AMERICA.

and F you naysayers and self-important pessimist – you’re useless yourself.

Cost of ownership is a fraction of any other $60k car. In most of Southern California, $60k is an average priced vehicle. No gas? For $60k, with savings of $500/month(no gas)…..this is an economy vehicle. Have you seen the performance of the Tesla Roadster? 0-60 in 3.9seconds…thats Lamborghini acceleration. What a phenomenal manufacturer!

Ya, I know they have a great pedigree. But so did a lot of corporations that didn’t make it for one reason or another. I hope they do succeed, but the track record of creating an electric car for the masses in the US isn’t good…Zap Motors….

At $60,000 (if they can even reach that price point), the only people that will be buying them are the ultra-rich that can afford to have them as their fifth car so they have something to show off at public events. Most normal people spending 60K on a car probably don’t care much about the price of gas.

I’m going to go out on a limb and predict the only that will happen over the next two years is that not one car will be produced, $160 million they claim to have will disappear, Tesla motors will be bankrupt, and somehow the California taxpayer will have been screwed out of a couple 100 million dollars to boot.

@Jesse, the electric car is by definition 1000 times cleaner then a gas powered car. Sure building the actual car and its battery does some certain amount of pollution. But the car then emits absolutely no CO2 for the next 5-10 years it is used. Also, the pollution of the production process of an car materials including the battery can be minimized through optimization and through a system that would MAKE SURE to control pollution levels of electric car manufacturing including the battery. You can contain pollution at the manufacturing level by simply LEGISLATING that price should not be the only factor, let people pay slightly more for manufacturing to make sure manufacturing including of the batteries pollutes to the minimum.

I don’t understand what motivates “environmentalists” to hate on the oil industry.

Assuming these electric cars will run on nickel batteries like every other hybrid/electric, these are NOT environmentally friendly cars.

“Building a Toyota Prius causes more environmental damage than a Hummer that is on the road for three times longer than a Prius. As already noted, the Prius is partly driven by a battery which contains nickel. The nickel is mined and smelted at a plant in Sudbury, Ontario. This plant has caused so much environmental damage to the surrounding environment that NASA has used the ‘dead zone’ around the plant to test moon rovers. The area around the plant is devoid of any life for miles. ”

@joel – not cheap, i drive MB…my point is with gas price so high, it doesn’t make sense to have 4 empty seats for trivial things like going to work and buying grocery etc….i am sure we are spoiled by cheap gas so far, but not anymore

@caleb – 25c is myth with all the subsidies…with gas prices so high, i am sure electricity costs will go to the roof…and imagine what happens if ppl start powering cars with electricity…simple demand and supply formula kick in driving electricity prices
