There are a number of recent attempts to produce a viable electric car, but the technology and demand means that this version has not been a great success. The biggest drawback is due to poor battery technology, which means that the vehicle totally lacking in the performance to keep up with modern traffic, and a sad series of bad races.
Now the Tesla roadster can hit sixty in 3.9 seconds and a top speed of 125 mph was launched, challenging the perceived stereotype of an electric car. Ironically, many delays prevented the Roadster was launched in 2007 as a result of the battery, but really because the electric motor is too strong.

Based on the Lotus Elise roadster chassis, which is very large, which means that the Tesla Roadster is blessed with very good handling, and thanks to the aluminum weight saving design and a direct effect of an electric motor, the performance of a race of super -Modern. In the very rare luxury cockpit drain like electric windows or air conditioning, lighting and even the Tesla Roadster car fuel.
Unfortunately, this advanced technology is not cheap, and the new Tesla Roadster costs the same as a brand new Porsche 911 Turbo, but Tesla plans more affordable sedan, coupe and SUV released in the future.
