TESLA: STILL JUST SCRATCHING THE SURFACE
7/16/11 |
What will Tesla's flagship sports car be like 10 years from now?
Far better! The Model S motor packs twice the continuous power of the Roadster's, is about the same size package, and was developed in only three years. We are still just scratching the surface with the capabilities of an electric powertrain. It is not bound by the mechanical constraints of a combustion engine -- the possibilities are scary. Also, the relatively compact and efficient design of electric motors allow for much increased packaging options. -J.B. Straubel, Tesla Motors Co-Founder and Chief Technical Officer
