Basically Tesla was smart in how they sources their car’s parts. But…if the B3 left the world, Tesla would not have had them to inditectly foot the capital bill. So no you cannot say that they did it purely at 1/10th of the cost of the B3. You’re either fooling yourself or misinformed.

This is an innovative car manufacturer aiming to change the face of motoring. If that means they start with an expensive sports car before they make affordable models, then so be it. The important things is that cars become more environmental friendly. Left to the likes of GM and Ford, this would take centuries.

Although I do agree diesel fueled cars (at the moment) seem to have the advantage over battery powered cars, but lets face it diesel technology is well over 100 yrs old. And it took the better part of that period to get it right.

Modern batteries NiCad, Li-Ion, ect are no where that old. Also the some of the best battery technology patents are owned by Chevron and for obvious reasons will not let them be used sold in this country for development of electric cars. But, thankfully time is running out on the patent (2010). Hopefully that will make a difference in electric development.

I also might mention the Tesla can and does get 200 miles to a charge without any CO2 emissions.

Not trying to be pedantic, I hardly think GM designed the first electric car. The following is from about.com:

I might add my daughter’s boy friend is a parts designer at Tesla.

Between 1832 and 1839 (the exact year is uncertain), Robert Anderson of Scotland invented the first crude electric carriage. A small-scale electric car was designed by Professor Stratingh of Groningen, Holland, and built by his assistant Christopher Becker in 1835. Practical and more successful electric road vehicles were invented by both American Thomas Davenport and Scotsmen Robert Davidson around 1842. Both inventors were the first to use non-rechargeable electric cells. Frenchmen Gaston Plante invented a better storage battery in 1865 and his fellow countrymen Camille Faure improved the storage battery in 1881. This improved-capacity storage battery paved the way for electric vehicles to flourish.

Hybrids are NOT the near future. Diesels can do all hybrids can and cost a fraction to make. Go to Europe and you’ll find a number of small family cars doing 70mpg with < 120g/km CO2 emissions. Not an expensive battery in sight. They render hybrids pointless.

It’s marketing considerations getting hybrids built, not environmental ones.

I love Tesla Roadster, I always wanted to get myself one, never had money for it

I think Tesla is the future of world’s car industry. If anything in car industry should get loans, it’s the electric cars and especially Tesla.

I can only hope things will work out fine…

Jason Calacanis owns a Tesla, so his remarks must be taken with a grain of salt. The argument that Tesla should get a handout because it is doing something interesting is idiotic! I’m doing something interesting, but where’s MY handout? The US government should not give money to any private companies. Period. It should give money back to the US taxpayers, from whom it was ripped off.
