Telsa? 0-60 in 3.9 seconds in a 100% electric car?

Has anyone heard about Telsa's electric cars?

I have to say I was pretty intrigued seeing an electric car made to look this nice, however at the pricing of $100k

Yeah, that car is pretty impressive! Dunno what to say about it. Check out another (not so fast) electric car. Made in Carlsbad, CA.

its a DC motor which equates to constant torque... no time lost shifting gears

all aluminum and carbon fiber, lithium ion batteries are light too

also its tiny being that it is based on the lotus elise's chassis

it's like a shinkansen of cars. lol

considering how my 1/10th RC car (my custom 9turn motor) was as fast as
gas cars, electric is a cleaner way to go. :)
